Why It’s The Perfect Time For a New PlayStation Handheld

Hey Sony, remember handheld gaming? You should, because you did some really cool stuff in that space before you seemingly walked away from it forever. Well guess what? Handheld gaming is actually really big right now and we’d love to have you back. We wanna take our PlayStation gaming everywhere! Do it for the world. Do it for PlayStation. Beyond!

Nope. There’s no reason for this to exist when SteamDeck exists. Just buy a SD instead.

shinoff2183525d ago

I agree with this. Id still like to get a steam deck myself as long as I can dock it like the switch and hook up my ps controller to it. Which I imagine the controller is possible im not sure of the docking though.

Neonridr526d ago

No. With the Switch already controlling the main market, and other options starting to rear up (Steam Deck), there is very little reason for Sony to waste time and resources on something that will ultimately pale in comparison and then get left for dead.

shinoff2183525d ago

Vita was way way better then the 3ds but it just didnt get the support.

Neonridr525d ago

yep, and the PSP was better than the DS. The PSP fared much better, but the lack of 1st party support is what killed the Vita. Meanwhile Nintendo handhelds live by their 1st party support.

GoodGuy09526d ago

No never again. It's clear Sony only wants to focus on their main console and blockbuster titles only. Another handheld would be abused to death again. They're also way too afraid of the modding community. I can only see sony perhaps doing a streaming handheld though.

shinoff2183525d ago

If they do please make a vita tv like thing. Id much prefer that then a handheld.

I would kill to have a Way of the Samurai game with a huge budget and modern tech... The first game was one of my greatest joys on PS2 back in the day. And I really hope From Software will do something with Tenchu... I hate that they're just sitting on the IP like it doesn't even exist.

Relientk7714d ago

Don't play with my feelings like that.

Also, new Tenchu please!

TheColbertinator14d ago

Tenchu would be superb in this day and age. Ninja and samurai games are hot right now and more is better.

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?

ravens5217d ago

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

MrNinosan17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens5217d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK212117d ago (Edited 17d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens5216d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens5216d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani17d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum18d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman18d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim17d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

I disagree Batman
