Anyone have any advice on a first time ps5, I haven't played a game since ps2 ? I bought one of these recently with intention of reselling , this bad weather I'm considering keeping it. Should I buy a plus membership? I'd like to try gta5 ,maybe some madden ? What's the best value to get some game time today? Sam's club has gift cards 10percent off reviews say 1hr delivery are they worth it? Please and ty in advance.

Yes. If you buy PS Plus Extra you get access to PlayStation Hits which easily gives you a years worth of game backlog to play through if you don't game that much and haven't played since PS2. You then get 3 free games a month, usually at least one worth playing. For a casual gamer I think there's plenty to play in their library without ever actually buying games, unless you need the newest and hottest releases.

I was in a similar boat hadn't touched my ps3 since 2022 and hadn't really gamed much since 2018ish. I was able to trade in my ps3 and a ton of games and such for $110 credit at GameStop and got a sale deal on a ps5. So far just playing a few games and doing some online multiplayer with my friends has been fantastic. I also love racing games and have gran turismo 7 as I've had all of those and it's been a blast getting back into it.

You could buy the digital version and a disk drive for cheaper than the difference of the disk drive. That's a pretty crazy deal

Since I play mostly Nintendo games and have pretty limited gaming time, I was in a similar boat. Here's what worked for me.
There are lots of great PS4 games in the $10 range, all of which were new to me (God of War). Some you can upgrade for $10 (e.g. buy a PS4 Horizon Zero Dawn disc for $10, get the PS5 upgrade for 20 more).
If your public library offers games, anything older than about a year you can borrow with minimal wait. Made sense for me, for games I figured I would only play through once (The Last of Us).
Most hours logged for me are Gran Turismo and Astrobot. If you have a good idea of what current gen games you'll play a lot and score a couple of them for $30, that can keep you busy while you opportunistically watch this site for deep discounts on other stuff.
