PS1 to PS5 Graphics Evolution: 1994 – 2020 PlayStation Graphics History

PlayStation 5 is here with a new AMD CPU, GPU, and an ultra fast SSD. With a new height of graphical fidelity on consoles, let’s take a walk down memory lane and start with the original PlayStation. What advancements were cutting edge for their time? What was it like working on each Sony console? What tools were available to developers? From PS1, to PS2, PS3, PS4, and today with PS5 – we’ll look at it all. Technology is an incredible thing, and the PlayStation brand has ebb and flowed through it all. Thanks Ken Kutaragi! Now bring back Polygon Man, he wasn’t so bad. Matter of fact, let’s see another PlayStation All Stars. (And maybe also another MotorStorm).
