    Lowest price I can find for a PS5 is $500

    That’s less than I’ve put into my PC since the PS4

    Edit: Just realized that the CPU I recently upgraded from predates the PS4.

        That depends on the game you’re playing, not the platform, right?

        Right?

          Nah, you need to pay a monthly sub to play online with every console

          Nope. You need Playstation Plus or Xbox Game Pass Core for online play on their respective platforms. And they charge subscription fees for that.

        That’s why I only get sp games that are exclusive to Playstation with mine. I mean technically Bloodborne and Demon’s Souls have multiplayer but I’m totally fine not seeing bloodstains and messages that say “try jumping” everywhere or having some rando invade me.

        At the same time, most of those exclusives are PS4 games so unless you really want the 5 or 6 games that are only on PS5, you could save money and get a PS4.

          Same for me, but it’s just GT7. Really wish Sony would port it to pc.

        You can rent and sell games. I save literally $2000 USD a year renting games vs purchasing.
