So I might be a very non intelligent person and somehow didn't mention (I don't think) backwards compatibility. The original PS3, the 60gb version, is backwards compatible with PS2 games, but the PS3 slim is not. They do both play PS1 games though. I'll go sit in the corner now...

PS3 and 7th gen in general really was that sweet spot where we got great single player games, great games with multiplayer online, and great games with local multiplayer. I wish the gaming industry stuck to this way of doing things. Gaming was great during this time. With 8th gen, online multiplayer has killed off local multiplayer, games just aren't fun to play, and there's little to no passion in creating modern games besides in the indie scene.

It actually kind of is. When I first saw videos about the PS3 about in around summer 2021 I was like "isn't that thing like too outdated" until I actually played on it again at my grandads house, that was my uncles system I had alot of fun with it playing black ops 2 & cod ghosts. I was also playing midnight club LA and I was Hella invested into it more then I've been into any game in a long time. I played LA Noire on my cousins ps3 super slim a while back in December 2021 and it was fun. Not a thing felt outdated about it at all for me. I played ps3 before that too with my little cousins in 2013,14,15,16,&17 over there house. Games like Minecraft, lbp3, and I remember watching my little cousin play God of war once

Changing the thermal paste doesn't change it from being stock still. Thermal paste goes bad. It gets old and brittle. Basically, each time you turn it on for the day the thermal paste is dry inside and has to warm up to actually start working again which means the chips get hotter than normal during that period and then the paste when fully warmed up still isn't as conducive to cooling as it once was. You should definitely consider changing the thermal paste like changing the oil in your car. At some point it needs to be done for the longevity of your system.

About 10 years ago when the deadline approached the release of new PS3 games, it seemed like the entire PS3 catalogue of available games went into the discount bin. Having a PS3 at the time but not having a lot of games I went shopping and picked up about 30 top notch games for a super reasonable price. The thing is I never got to playing those games. We moved and my stuff was put into storage and I never dug it out. That is I never dug it out until a couple months ago. Opening that box and finding my PS3 and all those unopened games was like Christmas morning. A yes the PS3 is still a gem of a system. I’ve been playing vids on the regular ever sines and I don’t think I’ll let up for any time soon. So far Skyrim is my favorite but to be honest it’s the only game I’ve really gotten into to. Let’s just say I’ve put in too many hours for just one game. But there does seem to be endless hours of entertainment with this one game and so far I’m still enthralled. Fortunately when that thrill does wear out I still a a box full of other highly acclaimed games I’m very excited to get into. Dishonoured, the entire Assassins Creed library, the GTAs, the early God of War games, the Arkham Asylum games, Metal Gear, which I hear is solid, Mass Effect 3, the Nathan Drakes, the Last of Us, and more. Tell me that’s not a long weekend of fun, even though no weekend is that long. So yes, the PS3 still rocks. And I’m looking to grow old with mine.

I think at this point it might be worth more investing into a good pc than collecting retro stuff. Ps3 emulation is getting really good and ps1 and 2 emulation is pretty much flawless even on a cheap as hell pc

I have always enjoyed Shadows of the Damned. Great underrated game. Just found out recently to that they are working on a remaster. 🎉

people will complain that if a handheld is too heavy your hands will get fatigued while playing it. but if its a controller its its too light and feels like nothing

You’ll have to pick up vanquish if you haven’t already tried it. Dirt showdown is a great racer along with burnout paradise. A few other notable pick ups are killer is dead, fist of the North Star, and ace combat horizon

Urs is loud because it MAY be reaching its end UNLESS u get it cleaned internally and the thermal pads and paste replaced. My cecha01 60 that ive had since 07 is as quiet as my ps4 pro, maybe quieter. It was loud as you said, and after I replaced the pads and paste its like new. Love ur ps3 people!
