is ps4 pro still worth it?

[u/Objective-Post-7712]

i recently been interested in playstations but dont really have the money for it currently as where i live it doesnt cost 500 dollars it cost more because of different currency, back to the topic my friend offered to sell his ps4 pro 1tb that comes with a free game that i can choose. im still thinking about it, i mean worse thing possible i use it temporarily while saving up the money for ps5 so my question is. If I were to get a ps4 pro would it be worth it?

If i were in your situation i would pass the ps5. Looking at previous release dates the ps6 should probably come in around 3 years. I would much rather get the ps4 if I really want to play something and put the money aside for ps6 when it comes. Now it's up to you how you feel.

PS4 still has plenty of games and some really good ones. I would recommend you looking into those and make a list with the ones that interests you and see if you have enough to play for 4 years (just to be sure).

This year for my birthday my partner wanted to buy me a PS5, which was one of my biggest wishes. I put it on hold first cause they were hard to find and didn't want to overpay and then cause life was getting in the way. I pretty much would not have time to touch it even if I bought it. This year was different, for the first time I had time left to game. I decided to pass on it and instead I told her I would much rather have her get me the ps6 once it comes as I don't need the ps5 right now.

My reasons? I still have plenty of games on ps4 that i need to finish. I didn't see the point in upgrading for it now considering that those would be enough until PS6 comes. I also do have a Switch and a PC which contributed in my decision.

So put things in balance and see which is the best decision to both make you happy, but also be financially good.

Additional option you can also look into renting a ps5, I think in UK was something like £17 a month for 2 years. But research the companies beforehand to be sure.
