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 ...

Attack on Titan in action on the Vita

Quite a few clips popping up in Japan now of Tecmo's game in action. Really curious to see if the Vita version will outsell the clearly higher fidelity PS4 edition. Or will, like Dragon Quest Builders, the Vita version annoy Sony (who are only showing off the PS4 version, pretending the Vita one doesn't exist) immensely by selling better.

This YouTuber has a couple of clips up. Its clear to see lots of faded textures, popping in and out and generally looking like mud. There also seems to be none, or a lot less destruction of buildings - surely one of the key selling points.

The whole problem I have with this game is I don't really fancy amputating endless dumb-looking giants, causing unnecessary suffering and trauma. Especially ones that look like placeholder graphics. Give me giant mechanoids, space aliens any day - this just seems pretty sad.



In-game action starts around 10 minutes in on this one, at least the cut scenes look cool.
