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...

Hotline Miami 2 bringing heat to the Vita?

The good news is, yay, another cool indie game for the Vita. The bad news is, if all Sony has for us at Gamescom is a string of indie games plus a couple of big-name new titles, then that won't do Vita hardware sales many favors into 2014 as indie games don't sell hardware. In fact you can stick a fork in the Vita for major development if that's the case, and that's ignoring all Sony's other pressing Gamescom issues.

Also just read the game has a rape scene, that'll end well. Pretty sure Sony won't be mentioning that during the presentation.
