June Update: PlayStation 6 and PlayStation Portable future visions

 The recent PlayStation video about the "simulated" technology in development, discussed between AMD and Sony engineers that will power the PlayStation 6 was interesting from a geek point of view. But from a gameplay perspective, there is - IMO - no need for a PlayStation 6 for another few years. Especially with the limp Xbox is-it-isn't-it launch .  June 2026 Update : The latest snippet of gossip for Sony's next-gen systems is a modular/external drive that will connect to both devices.

It should support Android gaming and Xbox Cloud, but is still far from the one device that does it all! 

It does come with a Death Star laser, according to the teaser trailer. But Verizon is the one spilling some beans ahead of RazerCon on 15th October.
