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.

Finally, there's the much awaited Black Rock Shooter on PSP for those who like a little more kinetic action.



Also, remember Sound Shapes and Smart As... are available as part of PSN's latest sale effort.
