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...

Zen's Kickbeat combines music and fighting on the Vita

Just based on the title, I'm imaging Glee meets Mortal Kombat but I suspect the game is really a little more upbeat than that. From the video it looks like a rhythm action title, but the actions are kicks, punches, dodges and blocks.



All of this is fought on some rather Tron-like arenas, with the music coming from big and upcoming names, with some Pendulum and Marilyn Manson, indie pioneers Celldweller and Blue Stahli, and eclectic talents like electronic music producer Voicians and Taiwanese rapper Shen Yi.

A full unveil will take place at E3, but tap this up as one the Vita's increasingly quirky but cool range of music games along with Sound Shapes (featuring Deadmau5)and Hatsune Miku.

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
