Lowest price I can find for a PS5 is $500

That's less than I've put into my PC since the PS4

Edit: Just realized that the CPU I recently upgraded from predates the PS4.

Plus, no monthly fees for online play on PC.

That depends on the game you’re playing, not the platform, right?

Right?

[-] TrousersMcPants@lemmy.world 20 points 9 months ago

Nah, you need to pay a monthly sub to play online with every console

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago

Don't need a sub to play F2P games online on PS, at least.

[-] FakeGreekGirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 9 months ago

Meanwhile, on Xbox, you need Game Pass to play Final Fantasy 14, on top of the subscription to the game itself.

[-] Stovetop@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

No not every game, there are a lot of online F2P games or games that have their own sub to play on PS5 that don't require PS+.

[-] FakeGreekGirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 9 months ago

Nope. You need Playstation Plus or Xbox Game Pass Core for online play on their respective platforms. And they charge subscription fees for that.

You mean like WoW?

Who still plays WoW though?

That's why I only get sp games that are exclusive to Playstation with mine. I mean technically Bloodborne and Demon's Souls have multiplayer but I'm totally fine not seeing bloodstains and messages that say "try jumping" everywhere or having some rando invade me.

At the same time, most of those exclusives are PS4 games so unless you really want the 5 or 6 games that are only on PS5, you could save money and get a PS4.

Same for me, but it's just GT7. Really wish Sony would port it to pc.
