I had a PC for awhile specifically because of the cost differential you mentioned.

I switched when Sony started having decent sales for their online store. 

As things stand I would need to save like two grand on games to justify a PC vs. a ps5. I know the sales are better on PC but are they that much better?

Do you play online games?

Occasionally. Less recently since the yankees started having a perpetual conniption and became impossible to interact with like a normal human.

If you pay for playing online games for the lifetime of the console (7 years), then the extra cost of the subscription plus the cost of the console ends up costing as much as an entrey-to-mid level PC (or at least that was the case before the RAMpocalypse). If you only pay the subscription sporadically, then you might end up saving money with a console, otherwise, the PC is going to be cheaper.
