Why Gamers Need a PS3 in 2024? | Is the PS3 still Worth it?

[@PKInTheUniverse]

Thanks everyone who’s commented so far. Not gonna lie, I got pretty overwhelmed by all the comments. Wasn’t expecting the video to do this well. If you’re curious to what other games I have in my PS3 collection, come check this video out . My PS3 Collection in 2024 (90+ Games) kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZXbd6GaeZlqmZosi=-VTZ0rYTrDZ-6xe9

[@sumstuff6956]

It’s not correct when u say most ps4 n ps5 games don’t come complete on disc this is a myth the vast vast majority of ps4 and ps5 discs come totally playable unpatched o offline with a playable version 1.0 on the disc it’s a myth spread by companies who want you to believe this lie

[@sumstuff6956]

So basically every single ps1 ps2 ps3 ps4 and yes even ps5 games with with a fully complete playable game with no need for any download

[@DaBlackFrieza]

I never understand how people go through multiple PS3s I’ve had the same PS3 since 2011 and works just fine. I even jailbroke it recently too.

my ps3 is plugged in next to my ps5. Until emulation compatibility improves the console is still the boss.

[@chemergency]

There's a strong case to be made for keeping a PS3 around these days since it's possible to play PS1 and PS3 discs out of the box which still remains impossible on PS4 or PS5, and now with the magic of homebrew it's even possible to play most PS2 games from disc after ripping and encrypting them to the hard drive, even on later slims and super slims.

I got a PAL super slim ps3 is it possible to install DLCs for some PS3 games ? Or is it still possible to buy them via PS store?

@@IronMike_Tython Couldn't say but there are workarounds that don't involve the PS Store for delisted games.

Man it's been years since I owned a ps3. I was gifted one in 08 but since i was fresh out of high school, I didn't give myself much time to play it. Only game I owned was COD: Black Ops So i missed out on a lot of great titles That I'm just finding out as of recent thanks to great videos like this. Awesome work as always, PK

[@DrGamingPlays]

Glad someone else retweeted your video as I might have missed it. Confession time is that I have three working ones at the moment, though I'll be preparing one for my daughter. There are a lot of relatively inexpensive games out there for it, and it is a good system to start a physical collection with.

[@juniordelong2885]

Just bought a super slim ps3 can't wait to dive into Arkham origins, Castlevania Lord's of shadows, the force unleashed, and operation raccoon City games you can't get without a paid subscription. I'm super excited. Loved the video by the way.

[@PKInTheUniverse]

Thank you! I still need to play Arkham origins, I’ve heard good things about it.

[@jinthpimp]

You were able to download full movies from the PS3 store, I no longer see that option. But if you did, you could still download them if you bought them. When the internet goes down, the PS3 still plays the movies. So it makes a awesome backup system. That and the light gun options for shooting games is better than the Sinden gun, well except for the recoiling version.

[@shanm.8204]

Thanks for the Video. So I have the PS3 Slim. The one with the sliding door on the top of the unit. Think this was the lesser of the PS3's, but had same specs as the fat, PS3. Don't really know all the lango, like our Tech guys of this age do. I have like 35 games for the PS3. I recently played Grand Turismo 5, and was smoked how far we have come with, Grand Turismo 7, which is my favorite game, especially using the PSVR2. Not sure if I will keep this PS3 or not. I have held onto for years now, but I am not really a collector. So not even sure why I keep it. Well again thanks for the video. I liked and Subscribed. Oh, I notice you look to be around my age. My gaming career started with, Pong in 1977. I was 7. Lol Gamers For Life

[@PKInTheUniverse]

I think the PS3 is worth keeping. I was born in ‘84.

I’m glad to own 3 models of the ps3. One of my favorite systems of all time

[@sabertoothretro]

Great video! I still have one and hooked it up recently to play some PS1 games. It doesn't get a ton of use these days, but I still have 3D Dot Heroes, Folklore, LBP, Kingdoms of Amalur and the Dragon Age games. Watching this makes me want to hook it up again.

[@SevenFisher]

I just got PS3 again (as old one I gave away to friend) so was looking at youtube videos to remind me which games to get. You included Heavy Rain and Uncharted, and when they are good games they are available on PS4 so I'll probably skip getting these games (again). Still, solid video! Also if you're into JRPGs there's Tales of Graces f / Xillia 1&2, I'm still sad that they didn't get remastered still and also there's Yakuza (Like A Dragon) Dead Souls, which I doubt will get remaster which is shame as I really enjoyed that one. Finally, my favourite - Everybody Golf World Tour (Should be Hot Shots Golf Out of Bounds for those in US), there is also another Everybody Golf but that's also available on PSVita too.

[@AnotherWatchChannel]

I rock 3D. So glad you mentioned this. There’s like 40-50 games in 3D (I have them all). I play 3D games all the time, and watch 3D movies (like 200 3D blu rays in my collection). I highly recommend getting a 3D projector for this. DIY a screen or something as big as you can go. It’s absolutely incredible. I made a DIY 175” 16:9 screen and it’s like a movie theatre. The PS3 is the heart of it all, and I’m going to keep 3D alive because it’s so awesome. I wish more people could experience it the way I do because it’s quite an experience when it’s done properly.

[@MrTheBaron]

I got a PS4 a couple of years back. Can't think of any good games to play that are up my alley, so I gave it to my brother. Bought myself a PS3 Slim. 2nd time I owned one since my fat 80gb died on me. Never got to mod the old one, so I got the opportunity to go nuts and mod the new one: 1TB drive, and loaded with games I've played back in the day, and some I never got the chance to. Loved it so much, I bought a second one, this time the one with full PS2 support. This'll be loaded with PS1 & PS2 games once I got the YLOD issue sorted

[@robbieburns3564]

Okay? I love my PS3 slim - recently jailbroke it, add a 1tb drive and am loading all my games on it and it now can play PS2 games. PS4 is a versatile platform - the inclusion of AA and Indies and still getting games - mine is well overloaded. PS3 was great totally - but its limitations were there. PS5 was a sharp dropoff for creativity. Mod PS3 and PS4 (Pro) for the big win.

[@szaki]

Bought my PS3 in 2007 for $220 and still have it, it works. I like the interactive fitness games, like skiing, tennis etc..., I may dust off my PS3 and play them again, it was fun. I like the tennis game, but my shoulders are shot, so had to stop it. I'm 67, so I don't know what these new consoles, PS4, 5 can do or if better? I'm stuck with my old ways, I guess! Excellent review, Thx! 😄👍

[@D0olzBeatz]

My PS3 slim died on me just recently. When I try to turn it on, it beeps three times then shuts back off. Had it since '10/'11. Took it apart to visually inspect if there's anything I could do to fix, ie. reflow solder. But I don't see anything out the norm. Research says a bad PSU, some say the GPU.. I kinda don't want to gamble on buying parts that won't resolve the issue, so I'm leaning on buying the whole system again. Just at an uncertain point right now. Would be nice if I could just hook something to it to figure out where the fault is, but I don't have that knowledge.

[@PKInTheUniverse]

I think I had a similar problem. I remember I used to have to unplug it , hold the button down . Plug it back in , and it would turn on . But it was only a temporary solution and the thing eventually kicked the bucket .

[@JCpNK]

The ps3 having such a great Catalog of games is why I don’t have a PS5.. I play newer games on my switch so with everything I own I have a crazy backlog as it is.

[@beardedretroguy6428]

I still have my 2nd PS3, a slim model. I have a racing rig but I don’t have the space to do triple-screens at 43” per TV. Also, you need a separate PS3 and copy of the game to do multi-screen in Gran Turismo 5/6. You have to network all the systems together on a LAN to do it.

[@andrewdowell6474]

A cool thing about the PS1 and PS2 games you can get off the PS3 store is that when they get released on PS4 and PS5 as PS+ premium games, you can download them there for free, too. Even better, they are like 5 bucks cheaper on the PS3 and you now have a copy you can download on multiple generations. I've noticed some games get removed from the PS3 store once they get added to PS+ but not always. So if you see a game get put on Premium, buy it for cheaper on PS3 and you'll now have the enhanced versions on the later systems. Sadly it won't work the other way around. I bought a PS1 on PS4 but it wouldn't let me have it on PS3.

Unfortunately however, it later got the yellow light of death after overheating. But now I'm excited to get my hads on a PS3 now in almost 2025.

The 3d ability of the PS3 is a digital time capsule when everyone thought 3dTV was the future. I bought a PS3 3dTV when ToysRus was getting rid of them out for $79. One thing I think you missed was the PS3 had a lot of 2-3 full games on a disc. There's quite a lot of them and to get 3 games for one price is a great benefit. I don't think PS4 ever had these types of collections. (X360 had them too).

[@Allan-Thubten-Sherab]

Buying a ps3 tomorrow. Found a store that has ps3s for only 99 usd. Already have a ps4, but unlike the ps4, the ps3 can play dvd and blue rays without having to download anything first. And ps3 has many more and better racing games than ps4 in my opinion. Loved Metal Gear solid 1 and 2 , So looking forward to playing metal gear solid 4 and other good games on ps3 that I missed until now. Right now ps4 is also mostly remake and remastered games, So looking forward to playing great original games. Also fantastic that you can play ps1 games, but strange that you can't also play ps2 games on ps3.

I play my ps3, on the same tv as my ps5 and switch. It was my media center for movies and tv and games up to 2019, when I got a ps4. But, the ps4 is on the bedroom, and the ps3 is still going, and I just go a bunch more games for it ( I collected all the Assassin’s Creed games). I use a ps5 controller on mine (see video on our channel).

Great vid, playing alien vs predator today on my PS3. I have a PS5 rarely touch it. Sad.

I just copped a slim in great condition off the street right as it started raining. Took it apart, no water got inside. Dusted it and booted it up days later and i'm happy to say i have a new blu ray player for my monitor

I understand in now days people just want more singleplayer games than anything and I've seen some of Playstation's first party developers dip their toes in going back to that old model of having a kick ass Singleplayer and then adding on a online multiplayer to it's game like Ghost of Tsushima: Legends Multiplayer. I like to see more of that and not this live service video game future we're in now. Back on the PS3 there were soo many first party Playstation studios doing a single player and a multiplayer mode, Killzone 2, Killzone 3, Last of us Multiplayer, Uncharted Multiplayer, Starhawk.

To this day you cannot play Killzone 2, Metal Gear Solid 4, or MotorStorm on anything else except on a PS3. Great games stuck there. But strong reasons to own the console at the same time. Added bonus - you can get convertets now to properly use PS4 or PS5 controllers on your PS3 with full functionality if you prefer a more comfy PlayStation controller.

Just got a PS3 a few days ago mainly for Metal Gear Solid 4 and Peace walker. Looking forward to the MGS 3 remaster

[@PKInTheUniverse]

Great reasons to own a PS3! I want to get that MGS3 remake on PC

[@jonthompson4747]

We waited years for MGO4 +MGO Online it was absolutely Amazing back then

With the Arkham Asylum game, you'll just need the Red and Blue 3D glasses. No real 3d tv required. The Xbox 360 version came with 2 3D glasses packed in. You'll have to go in settings and hit the 3D switch.

Got my Slim last week. Just waiting on a replacement controller. Works great! Just have a sticky disc drive so it slow ejects. Any advice on how to fix it?
