I think it's silly to use PS6 as a comparison point when we have no idea what a hypothetical $1000 PS6 would have. Due to the price rises of the old consoles, right now it is actually possible to build a comparable PC for around the same price, definitely for the $650 of the Series X. But of course that requires buildings your own, and is comparing to the price of new consoles. I don't remember when this was last the case.
Used consoles are cheap AF. My PS5 cost me £280 when I got it 2 years ago. Even with old used pc parts you can't get remotely close to that power for the price with PC building.
I'd say building your own PC right now is more affordable than buying a brand new console at RRP. Due to the benefit of no paid online, cheaper games, key sites etc. The used console market remains the absolute best value point of entry.
