PlayStation Anniversary Book's Curious Concepts Inc. Trapezoid PS2 and a Most Unwieldy DualShock
It's no 'Giant X' but still... Hardware goes through endless iterations before developers settle on a final design. Sometimes, discovering unused concept images can leave you disappointed by what could've been, but more often than not, it leaves you relieved that cooler design heads eventually prevailed. ROM's PlayStation: The First 30 Years tome is packed to the brim with these concept images, offering a cavalcade of ideas for PlayStation consoles, controllers, and other accessories that never came to pass. And it's fascinating to consider how much a brand can live or die on its design decisions, and while PlayStation is certainly one of the "cleanest" (aesthetically) of the gaming brands, it's still guilty of a few foibles itself. You can't sell me on the PS5's "winged" design, dizzying height, and clumsy horizontal stand. Read the full article on timeextension.com

"It's a brave new world": GTA 6's PC port will release sooner than you think to avoid losing money to AI rip-offs, says former Rockstar tech director
GTA 6 's PC release may come sooner than anticipated, according to former Rockstar North technical director Obbe Vermeij, because Rockstar and publishers Take-Two will be concerned about losing money to unofficial generative AI clones of the PS5 version, once it launches on 19th November. In general, Vermeij thinks that how to avoid having your games duplicated by chatbot herders is "the big question" right now for devs and publishers, particularly those who don't have the means to enforce their intellectual property dominions as vehemently Take-Two do for Grand Theft Auto . Speaking to me during a wide-ranging chatathon, Vermeij reflected on the early days of Grand Theft Auto development at Rockstar North in the 90s, and how the Noel-and-Liam-Gallagher-esque relationship between PC and console gaming has evolved. He shared a sweary anecdote about the company's difficulties getting the original GTA 1 to look the business on Sony's PlayStation. Read more
