PS5 or Steam Deck
So first sorry if my english isnt the best, it is not my first language-
I wanted to ask for you guys opinion, I have a ton of hours on steam, whit an account worth more than 700$, and im now wondering if i should get a steam deck or a ps5. I already have an account on ps4 and i had a lot of games that i wanted to play, like the last of us, Bloodborn, Shadow of the Colossos etc. Plus i really love the fact you can collect the disks. What should i do? Buy the steam deck oled that is at 569$ or buy the PS5 thay is now at 374$

PS5 will last longer for newer AAA games. PS6 isn't coming out until like 2028. If you mostly play indie games or emulators, then I would get a Steam Deck.
Ps5 has a good price and you own the ganes to resell when you fibish. If you jyst count the controller as a bonys you only pay 325

You can use your keyboard and mouse in desktop mode even w/out dock, just using a USB-hub. Xbox controller should work fine.

I mean, Deck runs on Linux and you can connect a printer if you need.

Steam Deck. All the PS5 exclusives worth mentioning are on Steam already, so there's not much reason to get a PS5 anymore.
