I'm interested in buying a ps4 because the black friday deals are still up. Do you guys think it's worth it when you have decent pc?

undoubtedly no you don't need to buy a PS4,

you can easily sign up for Playstation Now $100/year had have access to ~400 PS titles on your PC.

Alternatively you can still buy that PS4 and still stream and play on your PC with a Remote Play app that you can get.

Even more, is that Steam Beta can allow you to use the DS4 controller for the PS4 in order to play PC games with a console controller that isn't Xbox, or Steam Controller.

Do you like or would like to play games like The Last of Us, BloodBorne, God of War, NIOH or other exclusive games?

If you answer is yes, then IMO you should get one and if you have or wanna get a 4K TV, get a PS4 PRO

If your answer is no, keep the money and upgrade your current PC!

IMO that's the only advantage of Consoles over PCs, their exclusives. As anything related to performance while gaming a decent PC can do much better than a console.

Yes you will also pretty need to buy PS plus at around $40-60 a year if you wish to play games online. However if you have friends on the PS4 or like the games listed above then yes. I both console game and PC game since a lot of my friends don't PC game I can play them using my Xbox which I use more as a media PC or playing older Xbox 360 games since it has some back compatibility.

Just to note PS now only have PS3 games doesn't stream Ps4 games at least at this time, personalty it maybe better just to buy a Ps3 (which could buy used for probably $100 or less or new at around $150). You would still have to buy games but you can pick up used games pretty cheap and online gaming is free with Ps3.
