Festive portable deals take off from Xbox Ally, Nintendo, PlayStation and Evercade

This page started for black Friday but has moved on as the deals come and go. I will update across the festive sales, as new portable hardware deals appear. I won't hype them as "pocket change" or "fire sale" like some sites, because that's bollocks.  December deals :  Evercade has 30% off various hardware, depending on the store, check the blog for details .  PlayStation Portal is currently £20 off on Amazon UK  (another £10 off for refurbs)  Update: Valve has jumped in with 20% off the Steam Deck LCD 256GB model (down to £279 in the UK) Update: Xbox Ally has various deals (pretty short-lived, but likely getting cut again for the post Christmas sale).  Update: PlayStation Portal has £20 off the range, bringing the white and black models down to £179, and 30th Anniversary Edition to £189. (Look out for another 5% off at checkout!)  First up is  Evercade offering a clutch of offers on hardware and games on Amazon and across other stores in Europ...

See retail Borderlands 2 in action on the Vita

So, that worked out well for Take 2. No reviews, leaving people to rush to the Internet with their own opinions on the game. Which means raw footage is the way to go as American buyers finally get their Vita 2000 units, download the 5GB or so of Borderlands 2 and DLC, and then get playing.

Most comments say its pretty solid, but with less bad guys and the odd patch of slow down. I played the first few areas of the PS3 edition (that Sony so graciously gave away on PS+, shooting the Vita version's prospects in at least two toes), so I recognize most of this, and it all looks pretty smooth.

UPDATE: Here's a better quality video, with links to more, as we wait for the reviews to drop, will gamers finish it first?


Your thoughts? I can already sense sniffy reviewers lining up their "its not the PS3 version" quotes, but frankly, I could go for this.
