This Sony PlayStation tech hero is set to retire this month.
"For the PlayStation 4, I was in charge of everything from the system software to the hardware," he recalls.
It was Ito's work on the PS4 Pro that saw its hardware so fiercely improved from the standard PS4's spec. Under his leadership, the PS4 Pro saw a 30% uptick from the PS4's 8-core AMD Jaguar x86-64 CPU's clock speeds of 1.6GHz to 2.1GHz. Ito also influenced the decision to upgrade the PS4 Pro's AMD Radeon graphics chip from 1.84 TFLOP to a whopping 4.2 TFLOP, and paved the way for its 4K gaming capability.
Not only that, he helped shake up the software side of things in order for the PS4 to become the raging success it was with creators. "With the PlayStation 4, we made things from the perspective of what would be easy for users to use, what they would want, and what would make it easier for creators to make games. The method is completely different from before."has given us a lot to think about as PC gamers. With its impressive spec matching a fair few desktop machines of today, it did give us a mini existential crisis.
Essentially, Ito is a veritable console hero, and it's sure to be an emotional month for Sony. Come October Ito's impressive career will come to a close, and he can get on with his well-earned retirement. So, cheers to the man who basically made consoles worth writing about on the PC gaming site.Screw sports, Katie would rather watch Intel, AMD and Nvidia go at it.
