Possible new PlayStation Portal model pays homage to the Vita's OLED

While much of the focus on PlayStation's next steps is the PS6 and PS6 Portable , the two-year old PlayStation Portal could be getting a revamp according to those pesky internet rumours.  Update : Hints at pricing are around £/$250-299 for the new model, but everything remains deeply in rumours territory. Presumably the goal is to hit the 10% (currently 7%-ish) adoption rate among PS5 owners, something that would make it a bone fide hit gadget.   The recent February  PlayStation State of Play  saw no announcement. But, PlayStation needs to make Portal more a core member of the PS5 family, rather than the distant cousin that most of its appearances suggest.  As the improvement in connectivity and streaming tech, proven by many gamers enjoying their PS5 or PlayStation Plus streamed content from around the world, an updated Portal Pro could be on the cards.  Possibly featuring a 120Hz display and an OLED screen in honour of the mighty Vita, that'd be coo...

Vita's Silent Hill has Multiplayer Focus, what next? Silent Hill Karts

Silent Hill, a game where the general premise is that one man wanders around towns, shooting ghouls and investigating. So, how on Earth is Konami going to turn that idea into a multiplayer game, on a handheld? Sounds like a franchise creep to me, next it'll be Silent Hill Karts!



The concept doesn't sound any better since, according to an quotes from SH: Downpour developer Tom Hulett with Joystiq and Kotaku, the feature was planned for Silent Hill: Downpour and dumped. Only to be resurrected for Book of Memories. If it didn't work first time, generally cocking about with it usually doesn't make it better.

So, we could have a stroke of genius hiding in the shadows, some freaky co-op adventure (which will be fine as long as its not about always having to open doors or spring traps for each other), or Konami is losing the plot slightly. Either way, this is one game to watch with interest and also means Konami really should bring one of the classic Silent Hill titles across to Vita, just to keep the die-hards happy!
