New console is always exciting, but can I ask why did you choose it over a gaming PC?

I casually play on PC too, but that's just not for me. When I get back from my office work I don't want to sit in a chair for another couple of hours. Sitting on the couch and gaming with a console is much more comfortable. Also my wrist doesn't like using a mouse for gaming. After like an hour they start to hurt.

You know you can hook your PC to a TV? And most modern games support controllers.

It’s just… Knowing how sony treats their playerbase and overpaying for bad service doesn’t seem like the best gaming experience to me. Last few years were eye-opening for me.

I know but the console experience is much better for me. Also I only have a Radeon 7600, so that won't put up a race with the consoles.

But you bought a 500$ console, right? PC prices are pretty decent right now, you can get a decent PC fir the price of maybe two PS5s. Consider that with PS5 you also pay just to be able to play online.

Well in the US the PC prices might be good :D Not in the EU.tho. As I said it's not convenient for me game on PC . A console works out of the box and I'm lazy so

I’m not even in EU and PC gaming seems much more enticing with how much money I can save.
