Literally PS3, 360 and Wii was the pinnacle of gaming. Truly the golden era. There will never be another!

[@THELocalHero666]

I think it depents on the Genre you love to play. Imo the golden era of Gaming is SNES/PSONE because of the massiv Number of decent RPGs. But sometimes you can find Gems in the actual Generations. The Switch is JRPG Giant

Ps2 was golden era

I've had a PS3 connected to my TV since mid 2007. The 360 and Wii are long gone, packed away in the attic, but there's still plenty of reasons to have the PS3 connected. It sits alongside my PS5, Series X, Switch and Wii U in my entertainment center.

I’m not gonna buy a PS5 and the ps4 has been in the closet for at least 3 years now The PS3 is just different to me… one of those things you can’t explain but its special in a very unique way to me

The PS3 has an abundance of japanese JRPG's you cannot find on any other console, it can play ps1 games natively and imo has the most gorgeous UI, much prettier than the ps4 menu

[@nora-bee]

I preach from the rooftops at any given opportunity, the XMB UI for PS3 & PSP forever outclasses everything else. I've still yet to find another UI that is as simple, sleek and elegant. No fluff, no 6 menus to jump through to access your apps and downloaded games, everything is easy and intuitive to access. Can we go back please 😭😭

[@SC-lc7tm]

lately some of the ps1 classics on ps5 looks pretty good but they are not perfect. Some has trophies added, some didn't.

[@hastur3201]

Japanese JRPG 🙃

[@jurassicjam2156]

I've gone from playing the PS4 and Series X on a 55 inch 4k TV to playing the PS3 on a little 19 inch HD TV and the experience is ten times better. Playing through the Killzone and Resistance games has been amazing. The way forward for enjoyment in gaming is to go back.

[@howardmueller1535]

You downgraded and the experience is ten times better? Stop the cap, champ! 😂 I can’t go back to the slow days of the ps3 and the ps4, let alone to the low resolution of a tiny tv. To each their own, though.

[@jurassicjam2156]

@howardmueller1535 I think It's because for me (who has been gaming since home consoles became a thing) I don't think graphics and resolution make a game good. PS3s weren't designed for huge 4k TVs so don't as great on them as they do smaller HD ones. Loading times don't bother me either given that games like Gramlins on the Spectrum ZX would take 45 mins (if it even did load).

[@amnril]

The Resistance series and KillZone 2/3 were epic.

[@jurassicjam2156]

@amnril killzone 3 I really enjoyed, Resistance 2 was incredibly tough in places but number 3 seem really good so far.

[@KillPeople93]

Hell yeah Resistance

[@benjaminhoff5004]

If my 360 hadn't bricked in 2013 I don't know how long I would have waited to "upgrade". At that time, you could go into any GameStop and buy a dozen games for $100 to keep busy for the next half decade. This generation was the perfect balance between depth/graphics and quantity of games, and there were so many passionate developers that wanted to push the envelope in terms of gaming quality.

[@nocturneuh]

Did it RROD? I enjoyed the console, just kept RRODing on me.

[@ImWithTeamTrinity]

I had 3 RROD's in a row, my 4th worked allright, then my mothers RROD'd, and I gave her mine and gave up on Microsoft, never bought another Xbox again. Replaced it with a PS3 in late 2011 early 2012 ish, and it still runs like a top. Im actually playing GT 5 right now on a 55" 4k tv, I think it still looks great. I appreciate how much they got out of those things back then. I have put more hours on my PS3 then every other console I have ever had combined since 1989, thats a total of 8!

Im 39. Been around for all playstations. Had ps1 at 10years old. Remember it well. GT.. uhhh good times.. the 90s then 2000s was peak life!! Fact!

[@necroheartplucker]

As a 90's kid, I couldn't agree more. Games were at their peak, not just in graphics (even though it's dated by now), but there was a lot of creativity in many titles and the games are literally released 100% done on day 1. Nowadays I had to rely on Japanese games to get some variety, while Western games just use the same formula like online shooters or movie-like games that have controversial stuff or too much micro-transactions that made games look like a gambling machines etc.

[@HarrisonList]

No need to explain. PS3 is iconic and always will be.

[@wotanmituns33]

In some parts of my brain it's still circa 2010 and playstation 3 it's the latest and greatest. That thing just screams next-gen. The jump from 6th to 7th gen was insane. HD graphics, HDMI connectivity, motion controllers (sixaxis and move), online play (free at that), bluetooth connectivity, media center, sleek design, bluray, playstation home, etc. I mean, come on! US AIR FORCE SUPERCOMPUTER BUILT WITH A CLUSTER OF 1760 PLAYSTATION 3'S. Do I need to say anymore? Ok, great memes such as: "I have 3 ps3's."

[@lunch_trey]

I bought a PS3 back in November of 2022. Since I was a 360 player during that generation of consoles I was always curious about a LOT of the PS3 exclusives. With my 360 now basically my living room DVD player and having jumped to an XB1, I decided to actually buy a PS3 and have been collecting for it for over a year. And let me tell you that I'm really digging this thing.

[@ericliu8488]

The fact that you don’t have to wait and download a game after you buy it is the best part. Just pop in the disc and play!

[@BroWitGlasses8008]

Another great thing about this is era is that companies werent nickel and diming you at every corner. The base game always came first. $60 got you the full game and not a fraction of it so the rest can be sold to you later.

[@voteDC]

It's also the generation where that nickel and diming began. In Dragon Age: Origins there was an NPC in camp that you couldn't get rid of without buying a DLC and agreeing to do the quest for him.

[@jebreggie4225]

The 7th gen felt like a continuation of the great 6th gen era for the first few years but it somewhat lost the spirit at the end when all the games were just becoming poorly performing early 8th gen titles that needed dlc for a full experience

The PS3 is one of the best consoles, however the YLOD (yellow light of death) is a big problem when you want to buy this version. Despite this, it is still a very good console. Greetings from Spain.

[@alejandroaguilar4693]

The YLOD was nothing statistically compared to the RROD on the 360, so the PS3 is still a good bet.

[@grizzlybearking1878]

​@alejandroaguilar4693 The statistical difference is based on time frame. All launch models are doomed to eventually ylod in due time. There is always warping during heating and cooling and the balls in between serves as support to align everything back. The problem was over time, this did not happen causing cracks overtime and thus ylod occurred. The only fix is the Frankenstein method. Swapping the gpu more recent one. This was actually how sony repaired ylod consoles back then unbeknownst to us till recently when it was it was discovered that sony "refurbished" ylod consoles had gou models that did not exist pre ylod time frame.

Maaaaan I never thought that retro gaming would be so “modern” lol, great video. I also own the OG PS3 however I’m a little afraid it might YLOD

Cfw webman ceah01 still strong fan idle bumped up on cold started tdp temps

[@modbox9560]

You need good quality thermal paste like MX and cfw so the fan doesn't heat up solder balls for hours on idle 10percent stock fan settings are not enough cooling especially when you start playing games only kicks up to 20percent

Dude i had no idea you had another channel aside from mlb the show! This is great!

So many good games on the PS3. GTA IV is usually on my rotation of games and since jailbreaking it last summer I've been using it a lot more nowadays even with having a ps4 and ps5.

Man I’ve been playing so much Rock Band 2 lately it’s insane. I took the PS3 for granted some years back. I let a friend borrow it cause I was getting somewhat bored of it and I was playing stuff like bloodborne at the time (about 2016-2017). I never saw that thing again. 2 years ago, I bought a new one, and it’s been such a blast. I’ve also been going through the original god of war games; fun doesn’t even begin to describe those. I highly recommend people to buy a PS3. They’re ABSOLUTELY worth it.

[@shahryar]

I've actually got two PS3s right now. One's the OG 60GB fully backwards compatible one and the other's the 80gb MGS semi-backwards compatible one. I keep the 60 GB one in 4:3 mode connected to a CRT TV to play PlayStation 2 games on. The 80gb one I keep connected to our LED TV for the PS3 games. Still today, both systems are actively used.

[@onkelhiphop]

[@pipikakachu]

My PC is connected to a 75 inch TV, I have wireless PlayStation dual sense controllers and I play RPCS3 in 4K at 60fps with reshade on my 3090 ti . It is truly a delight

[@sith-o-mac]

Underrated channel

[@ONLY-HYBRIDS]

switching from ps2 to ps2 damnnn mannn the jump it was the biggest leap in the history of console graphics.

[@Hellnolongerawaits]

Video hasn’t started yet just wanted to say I’m happy to see other people who still love the ps3 too

[@IMMORTALRECAP56]

Yes man i still playing too , this console is one of the best console i have played most 🔥 God of war 3 & Ascension , UC3 , LOU1 , GTA V , Killzone & other Exclusive titles Straight it's never Die

[@kennyg.6608]

I still play my ps2 almost everyday. Tekken 4 (single player mode only), resident evil 4, tekken 3 and 5, max payne 2, code veronica. Not to mention the ps1 games like tenchu 1 and 2 and resident evil 1,2,and 3. Thats all i need for the most part

[@kennyg.6608]

I have the most trouble battling jin and Paul though for sure. They are real challenges for me I love it

[@shanenice5380]

Cool

[@EVOLLOVEx]

My guy said it to a tea, the “if you ain’t playing certain multiplayer games you don’t really have anything to do” that’s facts right there, I own 2 backwards compatible ps3s and also a standard ps3, “I’m a trader don’t worry I ain’t some crazy collector” lol. But yeah I have one for personal use and 2 for sale but I can’t see past it in a lot of ways. Retro gaming is really getting the attention it deserves again I own crazy amounts of retro consoles and this one has to go down as one of the best consoles ever made by far. Keep gaming people!

[@TheMcrico84]

I bought mine like 3 months ago. In like new condition. Opened it cleaned it, delid both chips , reapplied thermal paste and all pads. It runs like new. Mod it and added all the games i was never able to buy when young the console is amazing

[@seany32]

I’ve just bought a ps3 slim and about 30 games , such a great console and games library is wild

[@NucularDonkey12]

I've been replaying through Resistance 3, Little big planet over again, metal gear solid hd collection etc. It's been soooo much fun, especially resistance. Shocked that the resistance series hasn't been re-released for modern consoles

[@NFSBeast2365]

The PS3 is so good, I use 2 models to this day. My third is retired.

[@allen0088]

me too! on my bravia z9f. need for speed, nba 2k10, little big planet, homefront, ultra street fighter 4, and split second!
