Festive portable deals take off from Xbox Ally, Nintendo, PlayStation and Evercade

This page started for black Friday but has moved on as the deals come and go. I will update across the festive sales, as new portable hardware deals appear. I won't hype them as "pocket change" or "fire sale" like some sites, because that's bollocks.  December deals :  Evercade has 30% off various hardware, depending on the store, check the blog for details .  PlayStation Portal is currently £20 off on Amazon UK  (another £10 off for refurbs)  Update: Valve has jumped in with 20% off the Steam Deck LCD 256GB model (down to £279 in the UK) Update: Xbox Ally has various deals (pretty short-lived, but likely getting cut again for the post Christmas sale).  Update: PlayStation Portal has £20 off the range, bringing the white and black models down to £179, and 30th Anniversary Edition to £189. (Look out for another 5% off at checkout!)  First up is  Evercade offering a clutch of offers on hardware and games on Amazon and across other stores in Europ...

Acer unveils a gaming tablet Predator

With rumours of a new Nvidia Shield handheld doing the rounds, Acer is getting busy in the gaming market with a new dedicated Android tablet for players. Being shown off at Computex in Taiwan, the Predator 8 has an aggressive design, to match Acer's similarly-named range of notebooks and desktops.


The device features a quad speaker set up for booming audio, is driven by a chunky Intel X7 CPU and a 16-core eighth-gen Intel HD Graphics GPU, all wrapped up behind an eight-inch HD screen. It will presumably come with 3 or 4GB RAM and plenty of storage.

Due for release in the winter, as long as the games are there to support it, it should do well. Most Android reviews focus around the latest iteration of Asphalt (in the picture) above, Modern Combat and so on - anyone know if there's much in the way of gaming innovation on the platform?
