You are forgetting that you have to pay to play online. Your $500 console is an $800 console if you use it for 5 years. You can build a roughly PS5 equivalent PC (RX 6700) for more like $650-700 which is less overall.
Plus it’s a computer so you can also use it for normal computer things, and the games themselves are generally much cheaper with a huge backlog and sales all the time.
I did forget that.
Also that price point is awesome, I just dumped a ton on a fresh build.
I didn’t want to minmax on it but it’s cool you can get it that low and still have that level of quality.
Gotta hate NVIDIA.

Also don’t forget living at the whim of the manufacturer with regards to backwards compatibility.
