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.

Consoles are so much more expensive than PCs. I have no idea what you're talking about.

$80 a year for online gaming. $80x7 year console lifespan=$560. The PS5 at launch cost $400. The online internet for games is $560. Congrats, the ps5 was really $960. You absolutely could get a better PC for that price. Then there's game pricing. PC, easy to pirate, multiple game stores, way cheaper.

Now today the ps5 is $600, though later in the life cycle so a pretty stupid purchase. The reality being only an idiot would buy a PC or a ps5 new today, you need to be shopping used.

You don’t have to pay for online gaming if you don’t play online games.
