    I played some COD World at War & Modern Warfare 2 on the PS3. I even played Warhammer 40K Space Marine for the first time. And even played some Killzone 2 online as well. While I'm not the best at online games, it's still fun and interesting to see so many people still playing online on older systems like the PS3 and even see so many people doing their hardest to bring certain older games back online. Really shows how much older gaming has more life and effort put into it that many people still try to go back to it.

      sadly, it's mostly people who can't or don't want pay for modern console + subscription, some country have extra taxes on hardware(PC parts and consoles). So until service is turn off it's their best option.
      Or just bros who don't really care about upgrade, they just stay on PS3 until PSN/UA-cam/Netflix close.

    i went back and have been playing MW2 free for all for a while now, and i can recognize probably 70% of the players in my lobby at any given day now. the community is very small but dedicated to keeping the game alive and most of their stats don't even save. it's pretty much the only cod game you can reliably find a lobby that isn't TDM. i run a mod menu and give unlocks to the regulars that have new accounts whose stats reset every day. if you hop on, there's a good chance you'll run into me

    Ps3 online is still fun and nobody can convince me otherwise especially with the brooks wingman converter it’s still fun playing with fandoms in different stupid little games. Charm is still there. Matter of fact I think old games still having dedicated communities like 20 years later is damn impressive.

    I don’t know if you’ve noticed Basement Gamer, but in some of the older CoD’s, if you’ve changed your username during the PSN name change period, your stats won’t progress nor can you access some of the servers. It’s a real shame but if you have an older account that you made years prior with no name change, it will possibly still work. I can’t play MW3 2011 anymore since I changed my name and my stats won’t save on BO1. MW2 doesn’t save stats either unfortunately. You’ll be better off switching over to 360 if you as the servers for the older CoD’s are more functional there.

    The PS3 as actually such a unique consoles.
    The mix between “future proof” and the infancy of online gaming.
    Not having to pay PS+ has truly created a “secret online community of gamers in a budget”.
    Certain Cod games from BO1 onwards up until Ghosts may have a descent active community (it’s weird. MW3 and BO2 are sometimes dead cause of hackers. Yet somehow Ghosts might still have a lobby).
    BF4 is somehow still very much alive.
    And all around, you might have a descent time if you’re a normal human and search an online game DURING A WEEKEND.

    I have a car a house and many 0s in the bank. It not financial.
    I'm 30 years old... And never wanted to lear new games... Life moved on and I still play the original cod 4 and zombies.
    I'm no longer a try hard so I don't want to play something newer.
    When call of duty advanced warfare/stars wars came out I stopped buying the new cods /PS4. Moved on to other games to.
    When PS3 online stops working I'll buy the newest one out however for now..... I'm happy with the PS3 man. It still works like before. I can have fun without try Harding like 2 decades ago and the graphics in my opinion is not bad for a game. I still play on my account made in 2007.
    These new games are to complicated and pay to win. I'll stick to this simple games much more fun z I just want to shoot people.
    Only black ops 1 resets you back to rank 1.
    Anyway this is why.
