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...

Next Unreal Engine is all Kinds of Awesome

Epic has approved Unreal Engine for the NGP, this we know. And the company showed off the latest version of that engine at GDC yesterday, and all you can really say is "wow!" The engine can churn out appropriate visuals for everything from an iOS iPhone to games consoles that don't exist yet.

Apparently this demo was running on three super-spec PC graphics just to give you a hint of how powerful those next-gen consoles will need to be, but the scaled down NGP version would look almost as lovely.


We already know of hundreds of Unreal-using developers and can't wait to see what they can do with this last version of the Unreal 3 engine before we all move on to Unreal 4 and games so vibrant they'll change our very reality. Larger versions of the images are here.
