He says that since we work too far from home and have to travel back for a week or more, I would need a laptop anyway. He is telling me to get a ps5 because that would be enough to take care of my gaming requirements
depends on how much you play videogames tbh. I wanted to buy a gaming pc but i barely play anymore so it would be a waste of money. If you’re confident that you will regularly use it then it’s worth the money
So do you want something that you can use when you're not travelling, use when you are travelling, or is it both?
What are your gaming requirements
If you're not home enough to game much, then neither makes sense.

He´s a fucking moron, he clearly doesn´t want you to enjoy your free time.
What I absolutely need is a pc right now. I decided to go for a gaming laptop so I can game casually on it too. But everyone here recommends a gaming desktop instead for gaming. The problem is I cannot take the pc with me when I go back home. Which I do like every 3 months. So I'll have to buy a non gaming laptop anyway. My friend says that instead of doing that I should compartmentalise . Get a non gaming laptop for work and a dedicated console for gaming. He says console is cheaper and effortless.
Idk. The last aaa game I played was far cry 3 ten years ago. I don't have the context to judge difference in graphics and fps
J
Then save money, and get yourself a PC cause it´s totally worth the dime.
I´ve been a plumber for 4 month´s roughly, absolutely enjoy my job, have lots of passion for it and
bought a PC so I can play during the weekends, and friday night.
Oh ok. The thing is I have the money but I wonder if it really is worth it over the ps5 which would essentially be plug nplay. Plus we still have the portability problem

Every 3 months is nothing, if it was every week or every month then it would be a whole other story. If you have a car you can just remove the cables, put your PC into a box and do the same with the screen
The pc is not travelling with me that's for certain.
PS5s are more expensive than basic gaming PCs if you play moderate-requirement old games
Get a gaming laptop.
Or normal laptop + ps4/5
Or normal laptop + ps4/5
He is a retard and a liar. Consoles are as expensive as PCs up front and more expensive in the end due price of games, no piracy and PS Plus. Plus where are you going to held a 4k screen? Up your console faggot friends ass? Consoles are not portable at all. Get Gaming Laptop if you are leaving for longer than you are staying, if not then get PC + Steam Deck or wait for Deck 2 or Switch 2 since current handhelds are extremely underpowered.
Neither your PS5 since you need a TV + gamepads + games.
And you can go a little crazy over budget of PS5 to get superior CPU and SSDs, i haven't even upgraded my ram i just used ones that i had for 7 years in my old ass i7 7700k pc and they say you have to upgrade every year right
When you add price of buying Psplus and $70 games (while they are free or much cheaper on PC) you can get a much better PC at the same price.
And PS5Pro is a total scam, RX 6800 xt beats the shit out of PS5Poor and have similar performance as PS6 should have since they downgraded PS5P so much.
The thing is he actually did buy an assembled pc back in home with rtx 3060. Not considering the price of monitor because I'd have to buy a tv for ps5 anyway, the thing still cost him double than that of a ps5.
Now I did pirate a lot of games back in 2010s on my 740M laptop. But my friend believes that pirated games have viruses that would run your GPU at full speed all the time for remote bit coin mining.
Elab on this
I am not going to move whichever gaming device I get. Don't care for portable gaming. But I do want to be able to take my pc back home, for work and other regular pc usage reasons. The options are this.
1. Build a gaming pc which doubles up as both a pc and a gaming machine. Upside is its the best gaming option. Downside is that I cannot take it with me back home for pc shit. (I can buy a laptop, but already going for the most expensive option and buying a laptop on top of that, ending up owning two pcs is not appealing to me)
2. Buy a simple laptop and a ps5. Upside is I can take the laptop anywhere I want. And a ps5 should still give decent experience. Also it's less expensive than a pc. Downside is the performance and lack of modding/piracy of course.
3. Buy a gaming laptop. Upside being that it's all in one. Downside being that it's performance is not as good as pc, smaller screen and heating issues.

DO NOT GET A PS5 THEYRE SHIT compared to gaming PC’s
Shit in what way? They are dedicated devices so they should be able to run all the games I suppose.
Yes they would be able to run all games. But consoles are shit compared to gaming PCs . You can do so much more with gaming PCs like emulators also you can run games with higher frames per second
Because he is an idiot and haven't assembled it on his own. I can save money just by buying parts from resellers been doing that since i made pc with i5 2500k on my own way back in 2011
lmao btc/etc mining is far gone you could get them way back 2018 but now nobody adds them to the pirated games i have pirated 200 games and other shit since then and haven't got a single virus and if you do just use malwarebytes to remove them
It's a subscription that is required to play online games (PC online is free), it gets a price hikes every year or two. Concole cucks love to get scammed and paying for privilege to use their own already pre paid internet
PS5 is def a worst deal when compared to the PC or Laptop, it's way more expensive than both of them since as you just said need to buy a TV.
Wouldn't that subscription also get you many games and wouldn't it be cheaper long run to keep subscription instead of buying those games. (Considering piracy is not an option here)
I am not considering the price of tv since I'd have to get a monitor for gaming pc anyhow. The ps5 is currently on black friday sale at $570 while the rtx 3060 cpu he build cost him $1185 (including mouse and keyboard but not monitor)
Better invest that money in surgeries and fix your face than buy this
My face needs no fixing.
Maybe I'll do it maybe I won't. I have enough money for both so it's not a concern. Even if I didn't, getting hair would still be lower priority than a pc that I currently need
number 3, I'm not even a fan of gaming laptops, but it would be a better fit to your lifestyle
Idk if I ever will. Hair transplant means fin for life. And scalp scars when that fails. I'm already at the point of no return where it has tanked my looks. But if I can maintain the current state using medication guess I'll be fine. I don't have looksmax brainrot so I don't obsess about all this that much.Balding makes you look 30 years older. Get it fixed
I hate controllers, I'd buy a pc
I love my copestation 5. I've had gaming PCs before. I prefer console gaming because it is simpler. I got sick of all the different launchers and updates on PC.
What games do you play on it?
He doesnt know what hes talking about, Get a gaming PC and chillout bruh!
If I was living at home that would've been the best option. But I'm renting out a place and go home like every two months for a week. Hard to take pc with me in that situation
Soulsborne / Elden Ring PvP mainly. Been playing black ops 6 recently, apart from the gay ass lesbian, pink haired sheboon operator, it's a decent game.
So do you have to buy subscription to play multiplayer?
Yeah, it's retarded. They give you monthly games with your subscription to try and soften the blow.
PC controllers are also cheaper and ton of more and better options.
there are thousands of pseudo xbox controllers and Then some!
But i prefer the classic PS2 Dualschock layout, which yes my gamepad meets that Description. i only use for games where the keyboard + mouse becomes a bit problematic, like racing sims, hack n' Slash, third-person adventure games. That sort of Thing. for shooters always keyboard + mouse.
GTA i keep the keyboard + mouse combo, because some mods have no Key configuration for a gamepad.
Why the he'll would you buy a ps5 when you travel get a handheld like the nintendo switch or steamdeck
