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 ...

A delay on the next Vita Assassin's Creed game, fine with me

Ubisoft Sofia who worked on the generally impressive Liberation are hard at work on AC4; Black Flag, so the company has confirmed we won't be seeing Phoenix Rising (or whatever it will be called) later this year. That's fine with me, I'd rather have a late good game, than a rushed and flawed project. Since it was never officially announced, there isn't technically a delay, but at least we know one is definitely coming.


With the engine already crafted, the developers will still have had time to refine it and fix the quirks, while the characters and story will have their own gestation period. Throw in another six months to tidy all that up and we should have another cracking adventure to go on, time to update the release list again. To be honest, I haven't finished the first one, so will be glad of the time to go back and finish the job off.
