Well my coworker is considering a PS5, but is leaning towards a more powerful prebuilt gaming pc for about $100 more.

As long as one is okay with the requisite time tinkering to get it up and running, the gaming PC still seems like a no-brainer to me at these prices. So much utility, including doubling as a work station.

I guess a bit can be saved on games by selling the discs later, but that requires the disc drive add-on, so we're already looking at more up-front cost. And yet somehow, the base unit is still cheaper than the PS3 was, adjusting for inflation.

I did, but I hate Windows 11 so much, I bought a PS5 Pro o avoid it. Windows 10 🙌💎🙌

Yeah, they're gonna have to take my Windows 10 from my cold, dead hands.
