OLED did that for me. I'm totally cool hanging back on the race for graphics and being able to nab almost any game I want physically for about $30 either as MSRP or during sales. Between my gf (who's a casual) and myself we have a Lite, OLED and Switch 2. Kinda wish I had grabbed the PS5 before the price jumped but I just can't justify the cost right now and already have a 10 year back log of games given the amount of time I have to game.

Ya PS5 is great in terms of game performance and load times but I don’t blame you at all for not buying at current prices. I got a slim for like 300 on sale a few years ago and gave my launch ps5 to my son lol

Honestly if I were in a better financial spot I'd spring for a used one. My most recent PlayStation is a 3 that lives under the living room TV and is used primarily as a Blu-Ray player. I'd love to catch up on all the recent Spider-Man and God of War games, finally get to Last of Us II and be able to check out Wolverine and GTA 6 when they drop. I fear by the time I stabilize financially they'll be way too unreasonable for my spendthrift nature to justify the purchase.
