Man, some of you guys are super jaded about PC gaming lol. TC is asking for recommendations and it's just "lol just get a console."

It's absolutely possible to build a PC on the cheap. This one for example:

$421 for a cheap VR capable PC. The PS5's GPU is just slightly stronger than the 3060, so it wouldn't be far off in performance.

The upside to PC gaming is that you can play both new and old games without having to buy new hardware every generation like with consoles. I spent $3000 on my PC because I wanted top of the line. But it's not mandatory at all to spend that much or to upgrade frequently.
