More interested on the rumored portable PS5 to be honest.

Just make it a dedicated handheld at this point.

If we're talking about rumors I like the japanese rumor that Sony is getting ready to extend the PS5 life cycle. I don't know what will happen in the future with the whole components situation but the PS5 deserves to be the focus of PS Studios for more years.

Extend it based on what supposed original PS6 release date and by how much?

My prediction was always PS6 hitting November 2028, so the longest PS cycle we had up until now, which I think was always Sony's plan as the PS5 was made to last longer than the PS4, so if people are basing it on a supposedly 2027 PS6 release I wouldn't even consider it an extension to be fair.

Unless there's some technology allowing direct streaming from the console without internet connection, I don't think there's any point 

1 week till the soul killer returns with Nioh 3! Can’t wait, Nioh 2 is imo the pinnacle of the genre.

Yep, the 2027 date argument that was based in the AMD documents. 

If now they are expecting to release in 2028 it may not be a big extension but it would be a reasonable. If it goes beyond, even better. 

I finally beat FFX HD on PS4. I have a lot of mixed feelings on the game, despite the strong story, characters, and music.
The Sphere Grid system just kind of sucks, puzzles, are annoying many bosses and lack of save points and unskippable cutscenes are grating too. I get it's a remaster of a 2001 game, but still. The game started relatively strong in my mind. Besaid is memorable, and some of the other locations are as well.
About a 7/10. I will at least attempt X-2 HD at some point. But I'm going to play VIII Remastered first. I know VIII has a strange battle system too, and I should not grind.

Sphere Grid was the shit! It's not for everyone but I loved it back in the day. FFX had the best turnbased system from the JRPG's that I played. But I also love Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter's which incorporates movement, but suffers from balancing issues.

As much as I loved FFX's battle system though... static turnbased with no movement system or an ATB or action twists is not something that excites me anymore, and is one of the reasons Persona 5 got boring quickly to me. Perhaps E33 with its timing aspect will win me over. FFX like some other classic JRPGs had a timing/action aspect with some of the overdrives, but E33 seems to utilize it more, which is a move in the right direction.

Not anymore so cause of those updates. I'm keen on the proposition of the PS Portal, but I'd also like to be able to directly stream my games from the Cloud without needing PS Premium. Like, I should be able to do my own bought games with PS Essential imho.

But OLED and 120 hz is a nice update.

FF8? Just do yourself a favour and grind early on and enjoy the rest of the game. Sooner you OP yourself the better the the game is imho. 

Yeah not sure I could do FFX again. But I loved all it's gameplay mechanics. I liked teh sphere grid, at least at the time haha.
