Don't get a ps5 digital. It's only $100 difference. You find 2 bargain games that are otherwise $60 digitally and you've paid off the $100 drive. If the PS5 digital is on the table, get the disc version.

I almost feel the same way about series s vs series x. Although the price difference is $200, these are 2 completely different systems. Whereas, the only difference between the PS5 models is the drive, the difference between the Series S and X is a drive and performance. For the price, the Series S is pretty remarkable. But, as soon as you add extra storage or buy a few games digitally that could have been bought for less used, then you've blown through that $200 savings and could have bought the better performing Series X.

I'm not following the comment you made about completing your Sony console collection. Do you already have a PS5 disc version? If so, get a ps2 for $50 and an Xbox series X.
