I resell and rent games all the time. It's far far cheaper and you aren't waiting for sales. You can easily relist software for 90% of its value. I use gamely so I spent $250 and played maybe 40 or so titles not having to wait for sales.

Add in the costs of a PC vs a console and it's not even close. I save literally thousands of dollars a year.

PC: 0€ because you already have one for all the other stuff you do that's not gaming?

Or does everyone really just rely on smartphones exclusively nowadays?
