New photos show off PlayStation 5's sizeable footprint

We know from Sony's dimensions that the PlayStation 5 isn't going to be a small console. But new photos from Taiwan's National Communications Commission (NCC) reminds us just how big the console will be. The PS5 measures 15.4 inches lengthwise (or heightwise), 10.2 inches deep, and 4.1 inches thick. These measurements Sony shared doesn't even include the stand or its "largest projection." 

It will be larger than the Xbox Series X and bigger than the big consoles like the original PS3, the first Xbox, and the Xbox One. So, you better prepare space for it if you don't have a place to put it yet.

If the reports are correct, this will be the first time Google includes a remote with the Chromecast, suggesting an improved integration with Google/Android TV.

The remote features a D-Pad on top, with the volume rocker, Assistant, mute and home buttons below. There are also dedicated Netflix and Youtube buttons. This new Chromecast will supposedly signal the rebranding of Android TV to Google TV. We're going to learn more at Google's hardware event on September 30.
