Reports from PlayStation 5 hands-on tests
More and more people have finally had hands-on time with PlayStation 5, and that means more information and first impressions floating around.
For example, there's footage of the loading times in 3D platformer Astro’s Playroom. Earlier builds loaded levels in about 8 seconds, but the latest version has managed to shave that down to 2.5 seconds.

X to confirm: Sony is finally changing their guidelines and the cross button will now be the standard confirm button in Japan, just like in all other territories. The circle button has been the confirm button for Japanese players since the first PlayStation launched in 1994.
