I have had PCs its expensive..if you have a decent setup tv etc thats 1440 or 4k..then go for the series x ive had them all and honestly this machine is one of the best ive ever had..straight out of the box the packaging everything feels next gen.and I swear to you ive not had 1 issue not a crash nothing..and ive had it since release and played some very old and graphical games for it aswell....if you dont have a decent setup tv etc then the series s is a brilliant start ...do bare in mind tho that the series s is digital only...what this means is you can only buy games from the store on the console....the ps 5 is great but I got errors on the machine alot sound dropping out too...the series x looks better graphically amd performs better imho...I'm not trying to start wars I have a yt catered for ps ...I just think they dropped the ball with ps5 big time..I'm an old gamer ive had over 30 consoles from Atari to Dreamcast to ps to xbox so I know what I'm talking of...if you want a decent tv I'm 9n the sonybravia oled 43 inch its pricey but it is a gorgeous picture..and runs 4k 120 too and the sound through the built in speakers is crisp and punchey too...anyway I really hope this helps ...and remember what ever console you go for if youre enjoying it....its all that matters mann...happy gaming and happy holidays 🎄

Personally, I would suggest building a PC and even if you don’t know how to, just watch a vid online. It has many more games then consoles (and mouse and keyboard is obv better (but it’s your own preference)). Nevertheless, I would go for probably Xbox Series X or PS4 as they cost less and if second handed even less, but still provide a similar experience to the new consoles.

I hope that helped 👍

I've almost always slightly preferred Sony console soles... however being completely honest... I dont think either new next gen console is worth buying yet. Not enough decent games oit yet to justify the crazy price tags. Another year and I reckon that will change though. If u are happy playing ps4 games for now, then the ps5 is a fantastic upgrade for that as it reduces loading times to almost nothing and is super quick! My ps5 is the best ps4 I have ever used in my home lol.

The new games don't really feel complete yet. A couple of examples... I did like elden ring... but after completing once, there's no incentive (like most games now) for replay. Spuder man miles... was fun... but short too.. and apart fro story mode it gets boring very quickly...

Just my opinion and advice... but I'm (37M) older now so that may skew my thinking.
