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 to hit the 10% (currently 7%-ish) adoption rate among PS5 owners that would make it a bone fide hit gadget.   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 cool. Assuming the 120HZ streaming is solid, an OLED would be the more welcome addition, especially with the latest generation of technology offering QD-OLED (Quantum Dot-OLED), WOLED (White-OLED) and other buzzy titles for smarter display.  Whatever ...

Guacamelee reviews coming in, hot stuff

IGN has up the first review of indie-smash Guacamelee, giving it a sturdy 9/10.
Sure, Guacamelee may be short – too short, in fact – but this gripe is, in the end, a compliment to its quality. It left me wanting more. Guacamelee is one of Vita’s best games, a top echelon PSN game for PS3, and DrinkBox Studios’ best effort to date. More, please.
PocketGamer is also on the case with a Gold Award and a 9/10
Within those six hours, Drinkbox borrows from the best - with the world design of Metroid, and the puzzle-led mechanics of Zelda - and also adds its own twist, with tricky platforming sections and intensely enjoyable brawling. Mash that all together and you get Guacamelee - stupidly enjoyable, utterly silly, and quite possibly the best game on the Vita.



Looks like a another solid indie performer to go alongside Velocity Ultra and the others.
