Nice, glad you found one! I find it's most notable when I play a cross-Gen game I own for both. I re-started Ghost of Tsushima late on PS4, then continued it on PS5. Such a noticeable jump.

And not to keep spamming about Assassin's Creed, but they had what I felt was a pretty substantial press conference this week about their new games that I thought was interesting. Basically, they're taking the series in multiple different directions, knowing that many prefer this new RPG style, more action/combat style game they've been doing since Origins.

Meanwhile, knowing many people miss the original version of Assassin's Creed (AC1 - Syndicate), they will be producing games in this style as well. More of a focus on stealth and parkour, without all the RPG stuff. This is what Assassin's Creed Mirage is going to be, with the setting in Baghdad, Iraq during the Islamic Golden Age. While Assassin's Creed Red, taking place in Japan (exact time period not yet released), will be in the more recent RPG style, and developed by the same team that made Odyssey. They're basically trying to keep both types of players happy.

Seems pretty ambitious, and knowing how overly ambitious games like AC3 and Unity went, I could potentially see this blowing up in their faces. But I like the intent anyway, hopefully it works out.
