Sony Releases A Glimpse Of PlayStation Future

May 24 2024

In a new and released video, Sony have reimagined the boundaries of consoles and video games and released a glimpse of PlayStation’s possible future.

The video shows a futuristic round controller connected to a screen, allowing gamers to play with their favorite console on the go similar to the Nintendo Switch. The striking thing about the controller is whether the screen is a projection from the controller or a physical screen that floats on top maybe with the use of magnets.

Since it is not an official prototype but just an idea of what the future might be, Sony do not explain the image or go into any specific details.

It is clear that Sony are hinting at a future where the PlayStation will take the hybrid console controller route similar to the Nintendo Switch but maybe more ambitious and futuristic.

Looking back into the present, Sony are reportedly getting ready to announce the release of the new PlayStation 5 Pro which will surely take the gaming world by storm.

Apple Set To Add 7 New Emojis

May 24 2024

It will be a very busy summer for global tech company Apple as along with it’s WWDC 2024 event where it is reported that Apple’s very own generative AI will be announced the company also has plans to release a whopping 7 new emojis to the vast collection already available.

What makes the newest group of emojis such a big deal is their peculiar nature. Most would argue that these new emojis are very random and that the choice to make these artworks into fully fledged emojis came very much so out of nowhere.

The new emoji that will surely be the most used is the baggy eyes emoji to represent when someone is still feeling sleepy or tired after a good night of sleep or a long nap. The fingerprint emoji might be used to indicate identity, privacy and verifications.

The purpose of the leafless tree will be to represent barren land and drought conditions but can also represent the notion of lifeless. The root vegetable emoji is still up in the air as to which vegetable it actually represents but most are saying it looks like a turnip the most.

The last new emoji will be the splatter emoji which could represent messiness and to be more specific paint.

These emojis will allegedly come with the new iOS 18 which according to reports will be released in September 2024.
