    I see a lot of outrage about the price. But really, what’s the alternative? Inflation has been nuts and most things are up. GPU alone would cost more than the console, if you’re building a pc.

    I will say though, no disc drive is a real shit move. Just a few years ago it was like, “here’s the price, and here’s the price if you don’t want a disk drive.” Now it’s the opposite and that part is definitely annoying.

      The alternatives is getting a PS4 and playing 98% of the PS5 games at 70-90% of the visual quality and 100% of the gameplay, plus all the PS4 games the PS5 doesn’t have.

      Or just get a switch. You should already have a PC you can cheaply upgrade.

      You’re not wrong. It’s far more powerful than any PC you can build for the same price. Everyone likes to complain on this platform, maybe more so than Reddit. Anything a company does to make money is down voted and called unreasonable.
