Whatever the motivation is, it does not appear to be games -- at least not based on those showcased at Meta Connect, of which there were a mere handful. "Iron Man VR," a game previously available on PS VR, is coming to the Quest store. There was a spare cinematic teaser for a new IP called "Behemoth" by Skydance, the developer behind "The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners," which also touted new content. "Population: One," the VR battle royale title, is getting a sandbox mode allowing players to create their own maps. Even the addition of Microsoft's cloud-streaming service adds little excitement.

It's no secret one of the hottest tech gifts is a video game console. No matter what you retailer you visit, it's likely product pages for Sony's PlayStation 5 and Microsoft's Xbox Series X all feature a similar message: sold out. But some consumers have been lucky enough to snag a new video game console, whether through that well-timed Twitter follow, or a determined internet search testing your ability to quickly tap refresh on your browser. If you bought a new video game console for your kids, don't start wrapping just yet. You want to make sure it's set up and ready so they can enjoy it right out of the box.

It's that special time of year when the air is crisp, the holiday cheer is overwhelming and the only thing that sounds appealing is curling up on the couch with a big blanket and a brand new video game console. Luckily, the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 launched just over a month ago, and both of them are welcome living-room upgrades, offering more power, larger game worlds, and more seamless gameplay than the previous generation. In particular, the PS5 features a lineup of launch games worth your time. Here, we've collected five of the best titles available to play right now on PS5, just in time for your couch-based holiday plans. If you only play one game on PS5, make sure it's Miles Morales.
