Sony Reveals the PlayStation 5 Pro

After months of speculation and leaks, Sony has finally revealed the PlayStation 5 Pro. And from the sounds of it, it will be a worthwhile upgrade for those disappointed by the lack of power in their baseline consoles — so long as you have the cash flow to pay the exorbitant asking price.

PlayStation unveiled its new console during a brief nine-minute presentation Tuesday, serving concrete details of its specs. Improvements include a larger CPU that increases the speed of the console's memory, resulting in 45% faster rendering power over the base PlayStation 5. The PS5 Pro will also have better ray-tracing capabilities and a new AI-driven upscaling software called PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR).

The presentation used The Last Of Us Part 2’s PS5 update, the launch title Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, and last year’s Spider-Man 2 as examples of games that will now run fidelity modes in 60 frames a second instead of 30 frames per second on base PlayStation 5.

The Day That James Earl Jones Changed Star Wars Forever

On March 1, 1977, just two months before Star Wars hit theaters, James Earl Jones recorded Darth Vader’s dialogue in one day. Now, as the world mourns the passing of Jones at age 93, it’s clearer than ever that his work as Darth Vader was one of the most world-altering roles of his career.

It’s impossible to imagine Hollywood without Jones — from Dr. Strangelove to The Hunt for Red October, nearly every movie in his filmography is a classic — but it’s that one day in 1977 that cemented his legacy. Jones’ influence was so powerful that an image of Darth Vader was projected onto the Empire State Building in honor of his passing. But what’s strange about James Earl Jones’ role as the voice of Darth Vader is the fact that, for several years, he wasn’t credited at all.
