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...

Diablo II Resurrected could be a Switch best-seller

Diablo II, launched by Blizzard back in 2000, sold over 30 million copies on PC, and the remaster is likely to do big business. But I reckon the Resurrected remaster could do best on Switch as the more condensed nature of its missions, compared to modern dungeon-games, and the relatively compact nature of its graphics, even in the remaster, will make it perfect for portable play. 

The updated version arrives on September 23rd, and I'll be grabbing it on Switch over other platforms to enjoy the go-anywhere play compared to being glued to a big-screen. Some fresh info is up from a chat between PlayforAll and exec producer Rod Fergusson. 

I know there was plenty of big news from E3, but Diablo II is still my most-looked forward to game of the year. That's thanks to the many years of play I put into the original with office raids at work, many long nights at home online and the near-endless quest for those best sets of armour and other gear through the many updates.

Given the Diablo III Eternal Collection is £80 on Amazon, think this should also be more competitively priced, hopefully!
