PS Vita Slim Review: Your Perfect PS4 Companion | PS4.sx

As the smartphone revolution continues to dominate the causal gaming sector, PS4.sx asks if consumers still have time for a dedicated handheld-gaming console? According to Sony the answer would be a big fat YES!––With the company introducing a brand new slimmer, lighter PS Vita, aka PS Vita Slim or Vita PCH-2000 to be technical.

I think changing the OLED to LCD doesn't make a huge difference, I swapped my old one for the new version and its very hard to spot the difference. Anyone noticed a difference between the two screens?

LCD screen is definitely more pixelated. OLED is a far superior tech. It probably won't make a huge difference for the most part, but there definitely is a difference. Darker blacks, better constrast ratios, better viewing angles, sharper picture, more vivid colours, faster response times and lower power consumption are just some of the benefits of OLED over LCD.

That being said, Sony has made improvements elsewhere to help compensate for the drop in screen quality. A better battery, internal storage, and adjusting the position of some of the buttons definitely helps.

I'm happy with my phat Vita, the improvement they made here are not enough to warrant an upgrade purchase but are nice for those who are buying a Vita for the firs time..... If they had made changes like the ability to use standard SD cards or to charge while gaming off a USB I might have considered upgrading...

@Neonridr

Any chances games were just design around OLED or that isn't possible?

Skate-AK3653d ago

I don't think it works like that.

Skate-AK3653d ago

Love my Vita. Sticking with my phat though.

Good informative video in post, but did you notice something in the video that maybe very interesting in further development's for VR in PSVR?

Something Many might have not caught on about PSVR, and its a really good idea to have the Headset built with this functionality in the headset, and its pretty good that it's included..
I know what it is, I want to see if other people caught it..Hint: it has to do with tracking in VR!
Take careful notice in the 1min 9 to 12 second's of the video..

It's there. And it's a real further Key what Sony has intended to add with PSVR in the future of its tracking.

NET_Nomad2813d ago (Edited 2693d ago )

Interesting… notice that during 0:22 – 0:24 of the video, 3 black bands appear, quickly whip around then disappear into PS VR. I think those 3 black bands hint at PS4 Neo's exterior design. [1]

I kinda figured "The Know" got their story taken down due to their click-bait headline that suggested spoilers. They didn't actually have any early footage and shouldn't have been taken down.

DigitalRaptor2835d ago

I really dislike The Know's click-bait video titles.

Good guys, but I wish they would stop with that crap. Something like that was bound to happen.

TwoForce2835d ago

Well, Everyone want to have more views.

iTechHeads2835d ago

I don't really see why it matters if the title is clickbait or not. I mean if you fall for it, its your fault.
I've been using the internet long enough to spot bull from a mile away.

Twisted Metal on PS4 would be cool

DarkOcelet3367d ago

I think we can clearly assume it will be in production after Drawn to Death.

The game is just awesome.

Naga3367d ago

Awwwwww shiiii. The world needs a little more Twisted Metal.

Cra2yey33367d ago

Only if its the old school twisted metal and not the reboot... Black 2 would be great

SoapShoes3367d ago

The reboot had way better gameplay and bosses though. The only down side was lack of stories but that didn't bother me.

MONOLITHICIDE3367d ago (Edited 3367d ago )

Yes. The one they wanted to make but needed more ram. And I loved the ps3 twisted metal. Was like warhawk but in twisted universe

tinynuggins3367d ago

This will hands down get me to buy a ps4. I miss twisted metal.

gangsta_red3367d ago

Hopefully if they make a new Twisted Metal it won't be like the last one on PS3. That was not Twisted Metal I enjoyed and played from yester years.

Now Twisted Metal Black...there's a real TM game and if any game needed a remaster/HD version it would be that game right there.

Dan503367d ago

Make it more like TM 1, 2 and Black and less like the PS3 version and I would SO buy it!

SoapShoes3367d ago

No PS3 version had WAAAYYYY better gameplay, stages, and bosses. Take PS3 TM gameplay and put Black like stories in them and we're talking.

Dan503367d ago

I was talking about how the PS3 version tossed single player stories out the window and focused only on multi player.
