Look, we know it's tempting if you're a gamer with the requisite $700, but please don't buy a PS5 Pro. It's an awful lot of money for a toy that can only play the games that Sony says you can play.

If you can remember playing games on the original PlayStation 1 console released way back in the day, here's hoping the ibuprofen alleviates your back pain (no worries, I date back to the Atari 2600 era, as it relates to consoles).

Now that the dust has settled, the PS5 is panning out to be one of the most significant consoles of recent generations. That only means that Sony is more than willing to give it...

Signs of a console stagnation are beginning to set in as current-generation hardware continues to age. As such, Sony now expects to sell four million fewer PlayStation 5 consoles for its current fiscal year (which ends next month) than previously projected, with the revised forecast coming after PS5 sales last quarter fell short of the company's

You may have heard that Marvel's Spider-Man and Ratchet & Clank developer Insomniac Games suffered an extremely extensive breach that stole over 1.6 TB of data—yes, terabytes—from the company's servers. An unbelievable amount of confidential data was included in the leak, including not only proprietary technology and...

Sony recently unveiled another PlayStation 5 console that is on the horizon, but it's not a thinner PlayStation 5 Slim model or an upgraded PlayStation 5 Pro variant.
