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...

Getting back in to Freedom Wars

Okay, Freedom Wars is now free to PS+ subscribers, but I picked it up in the Christmas sale last year - got to level 6 and kind of gave up on it. Since there's likely to be a revival in interest, I gave it another shot and as with my recent WipEout 2048 splurge, I'm now thoroughly addicted again.


Perhaps if I'd just waited for that upgrade to my quad-rocket launcher, things would have been so a bit easier back then. But now I'm happily romping through the solo missions and playing my part in multiplayer battles and monster splats. Some thanks must go to GadgetGirlKylie and her many Freedom Wars videos!


If you're starting from scratch with the PS+ edition, then it does a little while to warm up. Or, if you're getting back into it, then there are now plenty of guides to help craft the best weapons to do some serious damage, no matter how nasty the Abductor.


There's also loads of people in multiplayer, so give it a shot and try one of the Vita's more lively hunting titles.

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
