Only IF a game runs like ass at 4k/60, and then I'd get the PC version if possible. Figured out the reason though, the receiver I got apparently doesn't support 1440p at all, just 4k/60, 4k/120, 8k.. so whatever. I was thinking that I had things setup improperly. I will say I'm impressed with OLED at 4k, only have a couple games installed on the PS5 which run at 4k/60: Genshin Impact and Valkyrie Elysium (VRR support as well). Going to download MHW and give that a whirl later on.

MHW is GORGEOUS on OLED.
At the input level? I usually turn it on in-game on a game by game basis. Not sure if the PS5 home screen for example is HDR or the overall input is. I've got an LG C1

Meaning some people forget to turn on HDR on each hdmi port on the set.
“Enter Settings (long press the button with the gear icon on the lower right of the remote). Click General (the button with the gear and wrench). Scroll down to the bottom and click HDMI ULTRA HD Deep Color. Switch the port or ports you're using for HDR input to On.”

The C2 has that option elsewhere, but I have Deep Color 4k enabled for the PS5 port. MHW did look good on the C2/PS5, and ran a very stable 60 regardless of which setting I had it on, Resolution / Framerate / Graphics, at least in Astera / Ancient Forest walking around, I'm sure Daora would ruin that though. Think I'll be getting the other 2 Feb releases on PS5, Wild Hearts and Atomic Heart (maybe), in addition to Hogwarts.

The PS5 homescreen should be HDR, if the screen supports it, at least my C2 pops up the HDR symbol when I get to the PS5 screen.- 1

sony shutting down PS Plus Collection, its a bunch of games you get free when you own a PS5 and have PS+. if you claim them before the date (May) you get to keep them forever, I think you need to claim them all on an actual PS5 with a logged in account so hop to it

after finishing god of war 2 (kinda meh, 7/10) i was looking for a new game and played Chorus which is on PS+ Premium free and has a PS5 version. Really fun game, it reminds me a bit of Wing Commander from back in the day with a stripped down space combat and story. It does get a bit repetitive with missions after a bit but I don't think its a super long game either, i'm at 10 hours or so in and probably halfway done.
Its also on gamepass if you prefer that, I just enjoy flying around in space shooting pirates, the combat is really fun but not overly complicated

Great game but watch out for bugs late game and save often or you can lose hours of progress.

I've never owned an Xbox, I have owned a PS every generation since the first.
However, to me it doesn't seem like the XBox is *that* bad. I never really felt the need to own one because 1) the PS has plenty of games to play on it and 2) I have a PC so don't need to play PC games on a console necessarily.
I know the Xbox did really well one time against the PS (maybe it was against the PS2 or 3? I don't remember). But why isn't it doing well now? They seemed to have a lot of good games on their subcription platform, whatever their equivalent is to PS Plus Essential. Is it lack of exclusives? Poor graphics/speed/rendering? What gives?

the xbox is doing well, its just not doing insanely well. Microsoft also has sold a TON of series S's which is cheaper and rarely been hard to get.
Its a difference in consumer philosophy. Microsoft doesn't really give a shit how you play, they just want you to really sub to GamePass ala Netflix. Sony wants you to buy their console and games, sometimes it feels like they treat PS+ like the red headed stepchild they reluctantly feed and clothe but don't love.
the revenue isn't that hugely different - $25b for Sony for gaming, $16b for Microsoft, $15b for Nintendo. When they buy Activision Microsoft's numbers will go way up.
Microsoft's biggest problem is talent management. They keep buying studios and IPs but are absolute shit at running them and they experience severe brain drain when the best people vest quietly and then quit and go start their own studios. They don't have a studio like Naughty Dog or Insomniac that cranks out guaranteed hit after hit. They have 343 which fucks up Halo constantly, Coalition which fucks up Gears, on and on. We'll see if Bethesda improves things. Microsoft has spent $15b+ in the past 10 years on buying studios and so far has very, very little to show for it.

Definitely not that. Series X is superior to PS5 in hardware, system software (massively better), and performance in most multiplatform titles. Personally I care less and less about Sony's exclusive IPs every time they release a new one that's a disappointment compared to what came before it, so my PS5 collects dust 99% of the time and Series X gets used for everything, including stuff I could play on my PC.
