Digital Foundry | We built a PC with PlayStation Neo's GPU tech
Can it deliver a generational leap over PS4?
We're months away from the release of PlayStation Neo and as things stand, with a marketing black-out from Sony, it's still unclear what the purpose actually is for this faster, more powerful console. All we have to go on are leaked developer guidelines, which demand feature parity with the existing PlayStation 4. Beyond that, Sony's recommendations to developers are surprisingly open-ended.

We were also able to establish a few new details, including the form factor, which intriguingly features two detachable controllers.

Video | Watch: Johnny plays Pokémon Go live at 3:30pm
This is not a beedrill.
If you're a Pokémon Go player, the Eurogamer office is pretty perfectly situated. Sandwiched between two pokéstops (and in range of both), office hours are basically one long stream of lure drops and pokémon captures. Most of the time, however, I work from home, where I am in range of precisely naff all. If I want to catch some decent pokémon, I have to get up and walk around. Which is precisely what I'll be doing later on today, live on the internet.
