$700, and the side by sides look barely different, from my perspective. The chat seemed to have the same opinion.

I agree. One of the few reasons I still stuck to consoles is because I could buy the physical games and have it on my shelf forever. That's going the way of the dinosaurs, and while I love that things are more accessible via Steam or whatever, I can't let my friends borrow my games, or pass it along to someone else to enjoy if I didn't like a game as much.

I also just love collecting and displaying game cases and steelbooks and stuff. That's rarely a thing anymore, either.
