Reply to comment by GADG3Tx87 in Looking for some advice: ps5 or Xbox series x by RevolutionaryTerm130

I don't have a PS4 and my Xbox one doesn't exactly work anymore so either console would benefit me. Im mainly interested in marvel and DC stuff so not really interested in any of the other exclusives except for maybe ghost of Tsushima but I definitely don't mind trying new things. Thanks for your input though extremely helpful!

No problem. I doubt any of the Marvel stuff will be coming out on Xbox honestly since Sony seem to be working closely with Disney to produce games from Marvel. Xbox was offered Spider-Man but turned it down. Contrary to those who believe it's being blocked which it isn't. Sony published it, funded it and insomniac developed it. PlayStation now has its own service in which many of its PS4 first party titles are either on it or starting to show up so a way to access them and try them without shelling out a ton of money. But if Marvel is your primary concern then it's safe to say that PlayStation might be the way to go for you.

If you can afford to do it maybe a PS5 and the Series S (a cheaper entry point) might give you the best of both worlds.

I only really have money to buy one or the other at the moment but I definitely would like to buy both consoles eventually. Probably not gonna be able to buy too many games on either don't got the money for it lol. I Appreciate all the info your giving me and hopefully I can make the right decision

Yeah that's one thing to note to differentiate. Games are expensive right now and all publishers are jumping on the bandwagon putting prices up. That said there are often sales and deals. As someone else said below about storage the PS5 is HUGE lol. The first thing I said, or rather yelled when I took it out if the box was "it's f**king huge!" lol. And I personally think it's hideous where others like it. I'll definitely go for a slim if they ever release one.

As for game prices I still buy physical because I'm old fashioned, like to own my games and deals happen faster lol. Plus they have trade in value if you don't want to keep them because discounts on digital stores don't come around very often. It's hard to say what's best for you really, in the end it's your choice that matters. All I or we can do is give you our opinions.

I've just finished my first run on Hogwarts Legacy and I loved it! Just three trophies away from the platinum. (Yeah I'm one of 'those') lol.

Edit. Oh and Sony still haven't nailed how to make a great controller. I mean the dualsense is good but that's something I have to give Xbox credit for, I like their controllers more. I turned off the haptic feedback because it weakened one of the triggers on my launch controller. Sony replaced it for free and have apparently redesigned the triggers but I'm not turning them back on just in case. Don't care for it anyway. Something to note in my experience.
