Okay so I hope you don’t mind but I have a few questions on this😅 is there much of a difference in price, is it enough to warrant paying extra for a disk console? If I bought a digital only would I be able to put games I bought in external storage and sell them in the same way you could a disk?

Digital purchases are tied to a specific account on a specific platform (i.e. your individual PlayStation or Xbox account) and can only be played on a console you're signed into. There's no second hand market and no real way to pass them around.

Definitely don't go for the Series S or PS5 Digital if you can afford the disc versions, you'll end up resenting being tied into a price gouging digital ecosystem.
