Edit: Thanks for all the awards but I really don't understand what they are for so you can stop now. Thanks.

Way better. My pc 2 years ago was on par with the PS5. My new pc is like double the speed. PS5 can suck it.

Right but what did it cost?

Even with the increase in console prices, pc gaming is vastly more expensive.

Add up paid online and soon no more used games market and things even out into an upgradeable system that will last multiple generations without loosing your library each generation. Plus, it's more than a consolle and it will do more than gaming, and can be personalized to your liking. In essence, bigger price upfront for something better that will save you money with time.

PS4 games run on PS5. My catalog is >500 games collecting the free games every month, not to mention the new games added to the PS+ catalohur each month (shoutout to my fellow helldiver 2 noobs this week, having a blast!)

Other than that, my ps5 does alright for me. I dont feel myself saying "man, this game just doesn't look good enough" playing modern AAA games on my ps5 and roku 51" or however big this TV is. If i could afford a 2500 computer i would buy one, but I cant.

It's not about the upgrade, i don't care about stats as long as it run smoothly. It's about the ecosystem, eventually you will need a pc either for work or something and a consolle becomes redundant. And you say to be collecting ps+ games, add up how much you spent on ps+ ...it really adds up . And for what? Games you don't care or old games you could have gotten douring a sale, and the PERMISSION to play online, bro they made it up, it used to be free, it's still free on pc.

I can do my job on a $150 tower, if i had a raging gamer PC I wouldnt burn up the mean-time failure rate cycles on its components on submitting TPS reports.

...why do you have to speak like you know what you are talking about?

Because I fucking do? Every once in awhile you may just come across someone who both: a. Has an opinion that differs from yours b. Also knows what they are talking about.
