News PS5 vs PS4 Pro Fan Noise Video Eloquently Makes Its Point
It's pretty quiet
The PlayStation 5 is not silent during gameplay, but it’s just about as quiet as you can possibly imagine. While writing our PS5 review, we strained to listen to the system, just so we could paint an accurate picture of how noisy it is. The bottom line is that its gentle hum is lightyears better than the PS4 Pro’s aggressive...
News The Godfall PS5 Trophy List Is the Stuff of Nightmares
Tedium defined
Over the PlayStation 4 generation, it really feels like Sony's first-party studios have mastered the art of a Trophy list. They need to be comprehensive, but also fairly realistic to provide you with enough incentive to go for the Platinum Trophy. We were hoping this would extend to third-party studios, but it doesn't look like...
News Sony Stresses Japan Is of Utmost Importance After Report Claims Company's Interest Has Drifted
PS5's focus elsewhere

A smooth ride
When we put together our PlayStation 5 backwards compatibility test, we focused on the biggest and most popular games.

News Demon's Souls PS5 Trophy List Has Another Achievable Platinum
Praise the sun
Just like the Trophy list of Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, it looks like the Demon's Souls Platinum Trophy is a fairly realistic goal.

News Fortnite Crafts New PS5 Trophy List, But No Battle Royale Gongs
Save the world
Many had hoped that, with the PlayStation 5 version of Fortnite, developer Epic Games would add some new Trophies for the Battle Royale mode that the majority of people play. We’re afraid not: the game’s next-gen gongs are exactly the same as on the PlayStation 4, meaning they all universally pertain to the largely abandoned Save...
News Destruction AllStars PS5 Trophies Demand Lots of Online Play
We're all connected
Destruction AllStars was due to release on the PlayStation 5 at launch next week, so the title’s probably pretty much done at this point.

Two extra loadout slots! Bonus Battle Pass skips!

News Report Suggests PS5 Won't Support 1440p Output
IGN Italy says no
One of the big questions levelled at the PlayStation 5 which has still gone unanswered a week or so prior to launch is whether it’ll support 1440p output. This resolution is often used by monitors, particularly those that refresh at 120Hz, and there had been hope that Sony’s next-gen console would support them. Unfortunately,...
News DualSense Controller Dock Looks Like a Tiny PS5
Cute and useful
Out of all the PlayStation 5 accessories announced thus far, the DualSense Charging Station is probably the one that gets the least amount of attention.

Review Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered - An Okay Remaster of a Great Arcade Racer
I've got to get away
Need for Speed diehards might not agree, but Criterion's Hot Pursuit was a triumphant arcade racer back in 2010.

News Sony Adds Game Names to New PlayStation Store on Web Browser
It's a start
Sony rolled out its new PlayStation Store on web browser and mobile near the end of last month, and simply put, it's a huge downgrade on the previous design.

News PS5's Limited SSD Storage Space Cannot Be Upgraded at Launch
Second SSD slot disabled
There's no getting around the fact that the PS5 simply doesn't have much usable storage space right out of the box.

Hands On Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition on PS5 Is a Stylish Upgrade

Devil May Cry 5 is a frontrunner in the race for PlayStation 4’s flashiest game, so it’s no surprise that Capcom’s turning up the style for its PlayStation 5 upgrade. Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition – unlike so many next-gen re-releases – is a premium remaster, so there’s no free PS4 to PS5 path here. Fortunately, the Japanese...
