For most of the year, I wasn’t all that excited for the new consoles. That’s why I’m surprised that I love my PlayStation 5 so much already.

We’re not going to see a graphical, industry-shaking leap like we did with, say, the SNES and Nintendo 64. We’re in an era of diminishing returns, where graphics can get better, but not in a way that is going to fundamentally change your gaming experience.
