Fifth time's a charm
This November finds Sony releasing its eagerly awaited PlayStation 5 console. The PS5 was first announced last year, and although there were concerns that the global pandemic would push back release, Sony has been able to get its new console ready in time for the holiday shopping season.
The PS5 is way more powerful than the PS4 and PlayStation 4 Pro, with a bigger computer processing unit, graphics processing unit and a solid-state drive. At first, the graphical differences between the PS5 and the PS4 might seem subtle when compared to the jump in graphics between the PS2 and PS3. However, with time, as developers harness the new hardware's higher clock speed and improved teraflops, the gap between the PS4 and PS5 will widen.
