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 ...

Ars Tactica brings the battle to the Vita

With all those Tactics games on the PSP; Final Fantasy Lion Wars, Ragnarok Tactics, Tactics Ogre, I wonder why the trend didn't continue to Vita? One company having a go is Ars Tactica who have turned up on Square Enix's crowd-funding page today to get interest in Dragon Tournament, a PC and Vita title, with the possibility of Indiegogo funding if they get enough interest.

Why not Kickstarter? Perhaps Square's interest might see something bigger come of this project? You need to login to register your interest, but you can use Facebook, Steam or Square access. There's a month to go, but please give them your support now.


I mentioned the Unity-powered briefly back in the spring, but things seem to be kicking into gear now with it taking shape well. Dragon Tournament offers a deep and interesting battle system. There's bags of quests, character development and crafting to enjoy - hope it all fits on the Vita!

I enjoyed the FF Tactics game, but can't say I got massively deep into it, any aficionados want to weigh in on how kosher this looks?

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
