My coworker asked me why I still "waste money on a PC" when you can "just get a PS5 for $500"
The guy sits next to me, decent dude, but hes been on console his whole life. sees me looking at a new monitor during break and goes "bro why do you spend so much on that stuff, a PS5 is like 500 bucks and it plays everything"
And i tried, i really tried to explain it calmly. like ok yes the upfront cost looks lower. but then i walked him through what i actually use my PC for. editing, work stuff, running multiple screens, emulation, modding games, game pass, steam sales where i have hundreds of games i grabbed for nothing basically. i told him i had some money budgeted specifically for the next upgrade and that its not like im just throwing cash into a hole, its incremental, you keep parts, you reuse stuff
He goes "yeah but you could just plug a PS5 into your tv"
I give up lmao
He's not wrong about the simplicity, he's just wrong that simpler = better. my 7900 XTX would like a word
