Yesterday, a minor update for the PlayStation 4 hit. Numbered as 4.70, the firmware update offered only vague hints at what improvements it might contain. It also had a few unintended "features" for some.

Games,more games and even more games! The Electronic Entertainment Expo is back this year, with a show bigger than ever as the doors open to the public and Microsoft readies the world for a new console. Confused?Don't be, as we have a handy guide ready to prepare you for the biggest show of the year.

There;s maybe something that I truly do miss from those gaming days: The ol’ jewel case. There’s nothing wrong with the current blue PlayStation 4 covers, but those jewel cases still stand out beautifully in retrospect. A design that the upcoming WipEout Omega Collection is making use of for a limited run of the HD re-release

The PlayStation 4 is still solid, the PlayStation 4 Pro is solid…er. A PlayStation 5 won’t be seen for a while, right? NOPE! Because according to at least one reliable insider who managed to predict Sony Hardware with uncanny accuracy, a PlayStation 5 is coming sooner than you’d expect, the actual date will shock you like my attempts at clickbait. Psst, 2018.

With the Rand in a nosedive, now would be a great time to use that cash before it devalues even further.

That’s the deal available right now, as local distributor Ster Kinekor interactive have announced some solid discounts for the signature black box.

If there’s one feature that has defined this generation, it’s the ability to share your experiences in games. The PlayStation 4 easily has the best application of this idea, with a console that can capture pictures, video and setup a stream at the push of a button. Most publishers are cool with this setup, as more eyeballs on their games works out to free advertising. You might find the odd watermark here or there on such footage, but you’re largely free to share away without repercussions. Unless you’re playing Persona 5 that is.

There's a sale on right now on the PlayStation Network, just in case you managed to save some cash for the end of the month and don't mid eating the cardboard that your crackers came in until payday.

Console launches are odd. The fear of missing out is more than real, for a device for which there presumably will be plenty of stock a few months down the line. Nobody needs to own a console on launch day, but there’s something special about being there for it.
