Review on Game console Sony PlayStation 5 825 GB SSD, white/black by Wiktor Barczuk ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nothing ordinary, a normal product.

The PS5 has an amateurish, enormous, towering, and oddly shaped design. Some benefits powerful console of today. Quite quiet. There are certain exclusive games that can only be played on the PlayStation 5. In contrast to Sony's claims that the built-in SSD is extremely fast, you can enhance the internal capacity by adding an M.2 NVMe SSD drive. Cons: Let's compare it fairly to the Xbox Series X/S. Sony doesn't have anything comparable to Xbox Game Pass's 400+ excellent-quality games (PSNow only has a small selection of games). Right away, decide on a reasonable gaming budget. Furthermore, PS5 AAA games cost more than games from the previous generation. There is no "developer mode" on the PS5, making it impossible to install software other than what is offered in their store. Why is it necessary? Install the RetroArch emulator and you may successfully play thousands of games from the PS1/PS2/PS3/Dreamcast/Nintendo 64/GameCube/etc. by unlocking developer mode on Xbox (one-time price of $20). As a result, the Xbox Series offers emulation, backward compatibility for games dating all the way back to the Xbox 360, as well as the capacity to theoretically download anything of interest to programmers. Only PlayStation 4 games can be played on PS5. Compared to the Xbox Series X cooling system, the PS5 cooling system is a little inferior and noisier. The filling is roughly the same, but there is a difference in the frequencies of the CPU, GPU, and the quantity of CU units in the GPU, which results in a marginally inferior performance. VRR, FreeSync, the analog of G-Sync, and Dolby Vision, which is important in my case because I have an LG OLED TV, are not supported by PS5. In order to receive 4K 120 Hz with HDR in full 4: 4: 4 mode, the HDMI 2.1 port's bandwidth has been reduced to 32 Gb/s, as opposed to 40 Gb/s for the Xbox Series X. Instead, 4: 2: 2 color compression will be used. I can't help but notice this subtle difference when examining current Sony exclusives, in addition to technical flaws. Women are increasingly represented as unattractive and macho, while men are stereotyped as being illiterate. When selecting a prefix for a child or teenager, consider the influence that the game will have on his worldview (although, of course, keeping in mind that children shouldn't purchase games that are rated 18+). Although the entire industry is affected by this tendency, which has been around for a while, the problem is considerably worse in the case of PS4/5 exclusives.
