Reply to comment by Anubra_Khan in Owning two consoles by FishingOk4088

those playstation exclusives are whats selling me, the xbox exclusives obviously arent bad, but the playstation seems like it has more to offer game wise, also any idea if i can put PS1 and PS2 games into the PS5?

No, you can not play ps1, ps2, or ps3 discs on ps5. But you can play ps4 discs which can be found for very cheap.

However, your ps2 should play both ps1 and ps2 games. Late model ps3's are somewhat easy to come by and are relatively affordable. They also play ps1 games.

Early model PS3's (look up the specific model numbers) would play ps1, ps2, and ps3 games. They're more expensive, have less memory, and are more likely to be faulty. The benefit is being able to play all PS games on 2 consoles instead of 3.

One more is that they're are a selection of ps1/2 games you can buy digital on PS5, but discs won't work from anything older than PS4 & there's a small list of PS4 games that don't work on PS5.
