RE: ps5 worth buying over pc? - Oni - 07-28-2020
I've owned several Sony consoles over the years and they're great, but you're limited by the games Sony has available. With a computer, you have access to more titles, and also the flexibility of upgrading or replacing parts when they break. If you don't have a computer, I would highly recommend building one. Pre-assembled machines and gaming consoles are great, but they're expensive. There's no sense in limiting yourself when you can have so much more.

And any computer over $ 2000 is better than Ps4
The PS5 will likely be around $500, so for many it's a budget option. A computer can be built for much less, though it may not be capable of running games in 8K.

I think the order for me is PC, Xbox, and last PS4

I think that's why some people buy both systems

I will take ps5 side for exclusives only not for any thing else

PC all the way if you especially do any other work besides gaming. That's why it's the most convenient alternative.
For PS you also need a good TV to enjoy it's capabilities. Those money can be invested into a good PC that does more than gaming.

I kind of agree with this sentiment. Of course, there are some exclusive releases for the PS5, as there are with any console. However, you don't really need to purchase them straight away. I saw a ps4 in perfect condition selling for about 160 British Pounds. The depreciation is unreal, but great if you're on a budget.
Also, consoles can be handy in a house where you don't have room or a desk for a PC. There are plenty of reasons to buy consoles, but if you are able to invest in a PC, I'd argue that is the better choice.

Probably not, PC will always be ahead and can upgrade

PC if you’re planning to upgrade your setup and you do not have a particularly good workstation now, or else consoles if you’re sole purpose is gaming .

As of right now, PS5s are being scalped pretty bad. Might be harder to get a 3080 or 5950X, but I'd 100% recommend PC right now.

I'd call for the PS5. Thing is everyone plays on same hardware. No FPS advantages etc. etc. That is if you're playing competitive COD:Warzone or Rainbow Six etc. something like that.

Pc is the way to go, for the price you can get a starter pc for just a few $100 more and its better for eveyrhting all round
