Cnet’s Dan Ackerman was “extremely impressed with the entire PS5 package” in his new console review.Michael Andronico from Tom’s Guide wrote in his PS5 review that the console is “a huge generational leap - even if you don’t need one yet.” Like others, he praised the new controller but did state that it “may feel too big for some.” Although critical of the lack of true next-gen launch titles, he wrote that the increased speeds create “almost zero friction between you and the games you want to play.”.He thinks that “what the PlayStation 5 lacks in subtlety it more than makes up for in potential, thanks in part to its amazingly fast SSD but mostly to its truly remarkable new controller.” However, he wasn’t convinced that the console lives up to that potential yet due to a launch lineup that’s largely available on the PS4 and limited storage. IGN’s Luke Reilly was critical of the PS5’s “flamboyant” design but otherwise positive.She stated that the 120Hz capabilities were “objectively marvelous, but buying a brand-new console and an expensive new TV is a bit much in the midst of a global pandemic.” Grey was also impressed by the improved battery life, haptics, and adaptive triggers of the new DualSense controller. Wired’s Jess Grey was also positive overall in a pre-launch review.They were critical of the console’s physical size, as well as the somewhat limited capacity of the included SSD.

It’s also worth noting that Xbox has dodged much of this with the implementation of the Smart Delivery system, which promises that approved games, physical or digital, will only ever have to be purchased once. Control also had an unnecessarily complicated path for next-gen upgrades that 505 Games floundered on as PS4 versions were accidentally upgraded and then revoked. This isn’t the first time we’ve seen a complicated arrangement for upgrades. That means that to access PS4 and PS5 editions of the game, you’re going to have to fork up at least $80, purchase the Standard or Special Edition on PS5, or buy it on PS4 and pay for an upgrade later.
