The first reviews for the PlayStation Classic have started to filter in, and they’re… mixed. Lukewarm, you might say; not unlike the reaction to the console’s announcement. For those of you who are unfamiliar, the PlayStation Classic is a miniaturised version of the original PlayStation console from 1995, which comes with 20 pre-loaded titles and a faithfully recreated PS controller […]
Sony has announced the full roster of PlayStation Classic games that will be bursting onto TV screens this Christmas. And it’s a tiiiiiiny bit disappointing. Actually, it’s a lot disappointing, if I’m brutally honest. Strap yourselves in. If you remember, the PlayStation Classic is a smaller, pre-loaded machine with a host of retro titles to give old school gamers the […]
Hot on the heels of the announcement that Huawei is taking on the Nintendo Switch with its Mate 20 X, we now have this curious Samsung tidbit courtesy of Softpedia News. Apparently, the South Korean firm is hard at work developing a new mobile gaming rival – one that could potentially thwart Huawei’s masterplan and consign the beloved Nintendo Switch […]
This is a post for my dad. We were discussing phones a few months ago, and he proudly showed off his latest investment from the gadget shop – a shiny turquoise device with a brand logo that I’d never heard of. I told him that he’d been seduced by a gushing salesman; he told me this new brand was going […]
The rumours of a Nintendo Switch 2 started to circulate last week. Well, that’s not strictly true – there have been rumours about it for a while. But The Wall Street Journal recently reported than updated version of the console could be arriving on shelves sometime in 2019, which is, uhh, great? Maybe…? It’s fair to say that the ‘news’ […]
Hot on the heels of the announcement that Sony will be releasing a pre-loaded PlayStation Classic in time for the Christmas rush, some interesting news relating to the classic Nintendo 64 console has come to light. Indeed, there’s a chance that Santa himself could be delivering it. The rumours of a special N64 – complete with pre-loaded games – have […]
Yesterday, Sony announced that it was going to be launching a brand new console this Christmas. Well, sort of. The PlayStation Classic is a miniaturised version of the original PlayStation machine from the mid 90s, and will come pre-loaded with a wealth of old school games to give retro fans their fix. I was actually surprised by how excited everybody […]
It could just be me, but it feels like the Xbox One only launched yesterday. The Xbox One X? Five minutes ago. To be talking about the next Xbox console already seems a little pre-emptive, and yet the internet is currently ablaze with rumours and wild speculation as to what Microsoft could be planning for the future. Actually, I’m not […]
Okay I’m a little late to the party on this one, but as I reported last week, Nintendo’s share prices haven’t been in the happiest of places – presumably in the aftermath of the E3 presentation that left some people underwhelmed. Is Nintendo’s 2018 Switch line-up strong enough to reassure shareholders? Overall, I think there’s a lot to be excited […]
A cryptic tweet from PlayStation Russia has sparked some lively debate in the darker corners of the Twittersphere. (If a sphere can have corners.) Could a major PS5 announcement be incoming? Here’s the offending tweet, for those of you who speak Russian: Приготовьтесь #длятехктоиграет pic.twitter.com/KbYWfIa5ps — PlayStation Россия (@PlayStationRU) July 3, 2018 Now, unless “Приготовьтесь #длятехктоиграет” means “PS5 announcement #VerySoon” […]
In the latest Nintendo news, it appears that yesterday wasn’t the best of times for the video game company. According to a report on Nintendo Life, the brand’s share prices plummeted 5.27 per cent at the Tokyo Stock Exchange on Wednesday. Now, I don’t know much about stocks and shares but the report on Nintendo Life does feature a rather […]
A video game console from Google? Would it want to know my location? Would it be seamlessly integrated with my sofa? Would it hurt?? It’s tempting to let the imagination work overtime but the word on the street (and by “the street” I mean the internet) is that Google is developing some sort of video game hardware that could take […]
