It might be a pain in the ass to carry your big-screen television and PlayStation 4 around with you. So why not lug this portable PS4, instead? Dubbed the PlayBook 4, this is the work of self-taught engineer Ed Zarick, who previously did a and Eurogamer point out, the portable console is housed in a 3D-printed plastic case and sports a 22-inch 1080p display. The PlayBook 4 looks large, but seeing as how there are laptops with bigger screens, this doesn t seem to be too unruly (though, let s be clear, this is a whopper).

Share This article It’s been over a year and a half since the Xbox One and PS4 first debuted here in the U.S. In that time, they’ve both earned their keep as the bearer of current-generation game consoles. Microsoft realized some months after release that it needed a $400, price-competitive version with the PS4 that lacked the Kinect camera, and has since remedied what was once a bit of a lopsided, apples-and-oranges comparison.

We take a look at the Xbox One a year on Talk about a turnaround: last year the Xbox One was widely portrayed as the loser of the latest console war. Seemingly designed more around Microsoft’s strategic objectives than, say, building the best machine for playing games, it was underpowered, overpriced and saddled with an expensive peripheral – Kinect 2.0 – that nobody seemed to want. For all its advanced features and functions, most reviewers agreed that it wasn’t as strong a package as Sony’s PS4. Judging by the sales – with roughly 14 million PS4s sold to the Xbox One’s 10…

Since then, things have only gotten better for Xbox One…
