With a launch line-up dominated by games that are also available on PS4, the PS5 doesn’t quite land as a knockout punch yet – but it’s definitely got the power and speed to be a real contender.

The PS5 doesn’t quite land as a knockout punch just yet – but it’s definitely got the power and speed to be a real contender in the long run.

The PlayStation 5 impresses with a well-considered interface and blisteringly-quick loading times, but it’s the unique new DualSense controller that really steals the show.

And of course that only scratches the surface of all the great #PS5 coverage from team @IGN, from Luke Reilly's great console review (https://t.co/0eCQ5UzPsX), to @JurassicRabbit's great load time comparison (https://t.co/EZlxyYinBi) to the awesome artwork on the site. pic.twitter.com/gUQRBkzDfI

And yet again BIG BIG BIG HUGE thank you to Will Batchelor for his incredible motion design and animation, always making my work come to life and have actual personality and vibrancy. I would be nothing without his skills. Please check out the full reviewhttps://t.co/xtjX8MhElC

HUGE HUGE NEWS.

This will not only define the rest of the year, it will reshape debates about identity, affiliation, and culture for the lives of millions.

PS5 and Xbox Series X reviews are out. https://t.co/1t8JiUFImghttps://t.co/DGpOhQJmmp

John picked up on this in his PS5 UI walkthrough - you can't move PS5 native games away from the internal drive,... and that's a problem. https://t.co/tNdyFMtGmM

It feels weird to tweet about console reviews. Hell, it was a challenge to write and focus on this PlayStation 5 review this week.

But here's some glorious video game distraction: https://t.co/5K8A3JxK90

Hold on to your butts! My #PS5 Initial Review is LIVE! The @Playstation 5 brings the best next-gen launch title, but @Sony's Dual Sense controller is the REAL game changer! https://t.co/Uvb4SLKrMT pic.twitter.com/doW5RodyHF

— Brian Tong (@briantong) November 6, 2020

PS5 review: faster loads and 60fps are great, but the real winner is the controller, the most impressive part of next-gen so far. There's more to play on PS5 than there is on Xbox (don't miss Bugsnax!) but you can get nearly all of it on PS4 https://t.co/LOwEQBRQcX

— Jason Schreier (@jasonschreier) November 6, 2020

Sony's Playstation 5 is the flashier of the two next-gen consoles, but is it better. @danackerman and I discuss how it stacks up against the Xbox Series X. https://t.co/aSdgD5gtjc

we get into this in our review but the gaming industry feels little different to me than music or streaming platforms

meaning when the hardware is commoditized (like PS5 and Xbox basically are) it really depends on the exclusives

and right now Sony’s game franchises dominate

Here is my PS5 review! If the Xbox Series X is the sensible next-gen console, Sony's is the exciting one.https://t.co/WljTmkbqdi

Oh, also, we reviewed the PlayStation 5.

It’s such a promising system! I can’t wait to play more games on it, but I’ve been impressed so far. The DualSense especially feels like a big upgrade to me. https://t.co/fA5GVMjrgY

Despite being such a chunky unit, PlayStation 5 brings brains and beauty to next-gen gaming as Sony's effort just edges a lead over the Xbox Series X https://t.co/gK3XJrr6Zv

If you value certain things in gaming—playing games on Xbox Game Pass, digging through a large library of classic Xbox games, and having a quiet, efficient box to get you in and out of so many games at a rapid-fire pace—it's better on Xbox Series X. https://t.co/NlWDsAxhUv pic.twitter.com/djevXxjzZZ

"Sony’s PlayStation 5 Is a Technical Marvel in Your Hand ... new game console sports the usual improvements to graphics and load times, but its controller is the true breakthrough" - @jasonschreier https://t.co/IzmJFGnmeq

"If I were to plunk down 500 bucks on a piece of hardware right now, it would be the PS5." - @MikeIsaac "Microsoft didn’t have much compelling fresh content .. For game enthusiasts who choose only one console, the PlayStation 5" - @bxchen https://t.co/BGho7TkSik

— tae kim (@firstadopter) November 6, 2020

Microsoft's Xbox Series X console is a natural, meaningful evolution in gaming and after sinking hours into reviewing it, one thing is clear...this is something special.

Our @bxchen, a longtime PlayStation fan, and @MikeIsaac, who grew up playing the Xbox — both tested the new consoles in their homes. This review focuses on the new Xbox systems, the PlayStation 5 review will follow this week. https://t.co/6k7W8EZnck
