by

Metro Boomin is a very busy man. Overall, he has a new album with Future coming out next year. Furthermore, he has even been in the studio with none other than Zaytoven. This is great news for all of the hip-hop fans out there as it means some great music is on the horizon. The Metro Pluto album definitely has a lot of anticipation around it. After all, Metro and Future have incredible chemistry. They have delivered some serious bangers over the years, and a whole album will definitely be a huge hit with fans.

Over the past few months, Metro has been offering a plethora of updates on this album. However, it seems like fans might just have to wait a while for the next one. While taking to Twitter last night, the super producer revealed that he has a huge mission to do before completing the album. Essentially, he is trying to grind all the way through Spider-Man 2. This is one of the latest big exclusives for the PlayStation 5, and many have been having fun with it. Needless to say, Metro has a lot of game to get through.

PlayStation Reveals Their SteamDeck Rival, The PlayStation Portal

by

PlayStation has revealed the PlayStation Portal, the company’s “remote play dedicated console.” Launched to rival Valve’s SteamDeck, the PlayStation Portal is a portable console with an 8-inch screen and wireless half-controllers. It works by linking to your existing PlayStation 5 library.

“Since launching PS5, we’ve been amazed to see how players around the world have embraced the generational leaps we made in the gaming experience, such as the heightened feeling of immersion delivered by the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers in the DualSense wireless controller. Our PlayStation community continues to give us a reason to challenge ourselves to bring new innovations to the market for all players to enjoy. That’s why today, we are especially pleased to share new updates about our upcoming hardware products,” the company said in a statement.

Now you may be thinking – didn’t PlayStation have a console many years ago? Yes, they did. It was totally not confusingly called the PlayStation Portable or PSP. That console launched in 2004 and was supported by PlayStation until they closed the PSP store in 2016. This new console, also referred to as the PSP, is more in line with the Remote Play consoles produced by Valve and Nintendo. According to the press statement, the console will retail for $199.99. However, has PlayStation waited too long to enter this market?

Industry experts believe that the SteamDeck will sell over 3 million units by the end of 2023. Meanwhile, Nintendo has sold over 129 million Switches as of the end of June 2023. The Switch is an all-in-one product, with its own dedicated shop and games. Additionally, the SteamDeck only relies on you having a free Steam account. From there, you are able to play any games that you have previously purchased. In contrast, the (new) PSP exclusively relies on you having working WiFi and also a PlayStation 5. The low price point may be appealing. However, it appears to be a very exclusive product that requires a high barrier to entry (i.e. having a PlayStation 5). PlayStation did not set a release date, simply saying that it would be launched later this year.

PlayStation 5 Pro Rumors Hit The Internet, Gamers React

by

If you are a gamer, you probably either have the Xbox Series X, or the PlayStation 5. Unfortunately, even now, the PlayStation 5 has been hard to come by. Overall, there have been various supply chain issues since the start of the pandemic. These various problems have consequently made it difficult for Sony to produce as many consoles as they would like. Gamers are the ultimate victims of this as there is hardly any stock available for them. It is an incredibly frustrating fact of life that is seemingly starting to improve. At least a little bit.

Despite these issues, it is being reported by Insider Gaming that yet another new PlayStation 5 is on the way. Typically, during the middle of a console generation, Microsoft and Sony create upgrades for their existing ranges. Well, that is what seems to be happening here with the PlayStation 5 Pro. This is a console that is meant to be less expensive to produce, which will be good for both Sony and its consumers. Moreover, there will be some spec updates. However, the extent of these updates is still unknown.

PlayStation 5 Pro On The Way?

It is also being reported that this console will be released in 2024. Although some might find this to be good news, most gamers are skeptical. One big concern here is the fact that we could see a price increase. Moreover, there are very few games for the PlayStation 5 right now, which makes a new console very redundant. There were various other concerns from gamers. For instance, one user said “What’s the point of a PS5 Pro and/or a Xbox Series X|S 2 Last gen needed the hardware upgrade as 1080p/60 should have been the standard but this gen we can do 4K, we can do 60fps and some ray tracing.”

At this point, it feels like fans would rather just get the PlayStation 6. At least then, there would be some real innovation. However, creating a new console right now feels a bit premature. Let us know what you think of the situation, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the gaming world.

LeBron James Teams Up With PlayStation For New PS5 & Controller Design

by

If you know LeBron James, you know that he loves his video games. Overall, he is a huge Madden gamer who loves engaging in tournaments from time to time. Moreover, he has frequently been filmed enjoying some games of Madden in the comfort of his own home. He just loves the feeling of video gaming, and that makes him the perfect person for PlayStation to collaborate with. While this might be an ultra-specific observation, it is mostly because PlayStation and James are, indeed, set to collaborate.

According to TMZ, LeBron and PlayStation are coming through with a unique controller and console cover. Both of these items will drop later this year, and overall, PlayStation could not be more excited. “We couldn’t have asked for a more ideal partner to be the first-ever collaborator to design limited-edition PlayStation products,” PlayStation’s SVP and Head of Global Marketing Eric Lempel said. “It was great to see LeBron’s vision for the design come to life and showcase his passions for gaming and community. We hope PlayStation fans will love this design as much as we enjoyed helping create it.”

In the video up above and the image below, you can see what this cover and controller will look like. Overall, they both have a black base. Moreover, they are covered in colorful crowns that represent James’ iconic logo. Lastly, the phrase “Nothing is Given, Everything is Earned” is written on both the controller and the cover. While taking to Instagram, LeBron revealed just how much fun he had designing these. “These words inspire me and my I Promise students and I hope do the same for gamers all over,” LeBron said. “Still crazy to think a kid from Akron who grew up playing games is getting to create something like this!”

Fans of LeBron are certainly going to appreciate this latest activation. For now, however, little is still known about the release of these items. Hopefully, new information will be revealed sooner rather than later. Let us know what you think of this console cover and controller, in the comments down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the sports world.
