We’ve survived weeks of PS4K rumours without going mad, so what’s one more on the pile? AMD has once again hinted that we can expect three new consoles coming later this year and sometime in 2017.
Helldivers 2 is now on the Game Boy Color, sort of.
Bungie veteran and current CTO, Luis Villegas, has left the company after fourteen years and has joined Sony PlayStation as its new Head of Technology.
"I feel incredibly lucky because as part of my new role I get to still work closely with my Bungie family."
New role and more pay and still can work closely with Bungie

To me the most important hardware is the battery. Doesn’t matter how powerful the chips are.
There’s no way you’re getting that 40CU 16-core APU in a handheld. That’s too hot and power hungry for that. The highest end APU they’re suggesting is going to end up in gaming laptops that can cool a 100W chip.
I think these articles get things a little out of perspective, Steam Deck has sold around 3 million and Switch has sold 140 million. But if you are browsing certain parts internet you'd think the Steam Deck had sold over 100 million. If articles are going to continue to circulate like this and continue to put the Steam Deck in the same arena then I'm comfortable calling the device a flop.
sure but theres still a limit to what u can put in there ha. power consumption would be the biggest hurdle. and cooling.
We all knew this was coming from Sony and MS too, PS4 NEO is coming. Xbox 1.5 is coming too.
In 2016 & 2017, now I think Xbox 1.5 is gonna come out in 2017 alone, that'll even let MS make the most powerful console this time around at the same price of a PS4 NEO or at 499$ If they want to go crazy with the technology. I hope the PS4 NEO is priced at 499$ so we can see a big leap from PS4.
PS4 and Xbox One are one gen late. Had they come between 2010 and 2011, it would have been amazing and many games held back like BC3 and TLoU would have benefited a lot. Right now we would have been excited PS5 and XboxTwo coming with a significant upgrade, but no. We are getting PS4K that if the specs reported by Eurogamer are true, then it is not that significant.
Fk this gen!
it's a good thing guys we have upgradable consoles believe me people!!!!!
Why is this a thing? Most people don't even have 4k tv's. And we all saw how gloriously awful consoles do with a high price tag *looking at you ps3 E3 announcement* And the fact that they would have to make games that actually utilize the hardware and also play on the lesser ps4 since unless Sony payed them off no sane person would drop 100 million to develop a game with a user base of like 3 million tops.
Semi custom could also refer to POS systems right?
So let's say McDonalds wants a new register system, and AMD designs the chips for their custom setup. That counts right?
