    Just buy a PC? The games are hella cheaper.

    You can even use your PS4 controller just like you’re used to.

      To get a gaming PC comparable to a ps5 would set me back roughly $2-3k, and it’s outdated the moment I get it. I’d still prefer a console that will always run the games I pop in. I have no idea where PC gamers get their computers but a current gen gaming PC where I am costs as much as a car. Building one is not an option, I’m just not the kind of person who can do that.

        That investment can last you longer than a consoles life span, especially if you can tweak windows and run lower settings or use Linux.

        There’s people still gaming on 1080s

          So more money for a worse experience? Again that’s why I and so many other will always choose consoles, cause you pop in the game you bought and it works. No need to downgrade it or sitting there troubleshooting for an hour just so you can get it to run. PC gaming is such a huge headache, I always end up returning half the games I buy on steam
