I'm 57, so your generation :) I have the PS5 UHD drive version. The big advantages of that version there is a UHD (4K Blu-ray) drive for watching 4K movies /Blu-Ray /DVD (or having the option if you have a 4K TV later) or buying used games or physical games from any resellerother than Sony directly. The other PS5 you can buy is the digital version which requires an internet connection and you have to buy everything directly from Sony's Digital Store which requires you to download the game from Sony, but it is cheaper. If you do not have a good broadband internet connection the digital version may not be for you. If you are new to the digital store and have some patience that we get as we get older you can save a lot of money because most games will go on sale for like 30% off after a few months after release. Edit: It may be obvious, but if you have the UHD drive version, you can still buy games form the Sony Playstation store.
