Free online multiplayer is the clincher, love to see the community keeping the PS3 online.
That's it really. It's so simple.
PS3 will always have a special place in my heart.
PS3 is like middle child. No one notice them. But he's the badass of them all
I love playing my PS3 from time to time. The games this generation were so fun, especially Star Wars The Force Unleashed, Lord of the Rings Conquest, inFamous 1 & 2, MW2 and Black Ops. I also love being able to play complete games. I don't like how many current games rely too heavily on DLC and micro transactions. I miss the days where DLC was a compliment to the game, not a requirement (like it is for EA Star Wars Battlefront)
I have ps3 and I play it for black ops
That's the key, playing complete games. I got MK1 on the PS5 and it feels empty. Spider-Man 2 was fun but it has no replay value, no features or anything. MK11, needed to buy characters... the list goes on and on. I miss unlocking features in games by playing them instead of paying for DLC.
EA had this trial thing on steam for a dollar 💵 one dollar I tried it and played most all the EA games that were supported by their store mostly made me feel empty cuz their store doesn't support so many mostly just racing and the Dead space series Mass effect series I really like the Mass effect series but just didn't like some of the games that EA put on their thing but it was only a dollar so I have enough for a month was a good deal
EA kind of feels like it's dying or going out of business the way it's been headed and that's kind of sad because they made all the classic games for the original Xbox and
I miss playing PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale…
The 2000s were the golden era of gaming
Take off the nostalgia goggles
@@animeborn2take off the bath salts
Late 90's/2000's
The TikTok generation will never know this
@@saghair88. Yea the tik tok generation just says take off the nostalgia goggles off lmao they will soon understand when a new generation of things come after this generation
I got my boyfriend a PS3 specifically so he can play Warhawk again. Tonight he played it for the first time since before we met almost a decade ago. The lobby was active, there were players in the middle of a game. It was so much fun to watch. My favorite console has been entirely abandoned by its creator and is left to the small modding community to keep alive, so I was happy that the ps3 is still alive and active
I just miss when Sony made fun mp games like socom mag killzone
and fun single player games like pupeteer twisted metal sly jak etc
When playstation brand was still japanese and not californian
@@MrKrewie when PlayStation had competent gaming leadership
They need to bring kill zone back 💯
MAG was not that good……
PS3 has a huge variety of single player games to play. PS3 was a generation where it had a good balance between good graphics and actual gameplay. Too many games now days focus too much on being cinematic or interactive movies that it makes me go back playing older games on older systems such as the PS2 & PS3. My favourite PS3 franchise is without a doubt the InFamous series. Another great thing about the PS3 is that it plays all PS1 games, even on disc. It's also a great DVD/Blu-Ray player, but it depends weather or not it's region locked, since I unfortunately got a region locked one, so I can't play all DVD's that are outside Region 2, although some Region 1 DVD's do actually work. Mostly DCAU & Warner Brothers cartoons. Even though I had some overheating issues with my PS3 console, it happens very rarely, but over all I still love my PS3 Superslim.
Playstation 3 is also the console on which the Soulsborne series was born, with the original Demon's Souls - perhaps the most influential game of this century so far, and an alll-time classic.
@@fuzzylogic3017 I never played Demon's Souls on PS3. It's very hard to find a decent copy of the game and through stuff like EBay or Amazon, it is pretty expensive of a game.
Thats why games suck now days. More about graphics instead of gameplay.
@@DEPHBOI93 Agreed.
if your not aware, you can hack ur PS3 to have it play all regional DVDs and Blu-Rays, including physical PS1 disc games you've imported from japan or europe (same with PS2 disc games as well)
The seventh generation of consoles was the pinnacle of gaming.
Still play my ps3 to this day and love it. So fun replaying games i played back in highschool and cleaning up trophies for them. Really miss the good old days of playing the old cod mw games, uncharted, littlebigplanet, rock band and so many more online. Really miss this era of playstation.
Metoo Doe I platinum hunting instead
You can't forget about the classic Banjo Kazooie 🐻 my first game I know that a Xbox360 game but it's my first Xbox 360 game 🎯♥️
My first ps3 game world at war all I had was split screen campaign 2 controller and a Brother 👱♂️ most importantly 2 controller I could never play single player ever again yeah 👍
I play mines to
Liked and subbed. I bought a PS3 last week , because I miss this gen. I miss having good games , miss the online. I decided to see if anyone out there was still playing ps3 , amazing amount of youtubers , communities and discords in 2023 I can't believe it. I've been playing alot of Battlefield 3 /4 , Cod ghosts , Advance Warfare , MW2. Also I'm from the UK my ps3 slim 320gb with 6 games came under $50 + shipping. Suprised it's over $150 for you guys accross the pond.
It is incredible how much support this console still has! That's a steal, everything in Canada is expensive to be fair 😅
Thank you so much for like and sub to btw! 🙏
unharted 2 -3 online ?
I bought my ps3 2022. Best decision. Mostly play singleplayer. But did play COD MW4 last year. Was a lot of fun. I hope ps3 never dies ;)
Mw4 ?
COD4 MW ;)
@@johnsmith974 are you that broke you can’t get a PS4 or 5? or you just buy ps3 for nostalgic I have a ps5 as of now and gonna get a ps2 and ps3 real soon because I will always go back and play all the games I love even 50 years from now I will still play all my favorite games back to back if I’m even alive then lol
I still play Battlefield 3, BF4, BF Hardline, Red Dead Redemption on weekends. That RDR is still online on PS3 but GTA5 is not is a bummer. FarCry3 was running a while but is shut down now. Many CoD's are still open and some NFS titles. It was a really great time.
GTA V is back online bro!
Thanks to your videos about GTA:OG I’ve installed HEN on my old PS3 slim again and set everything up. Works like a charm and seeing how GTA used to be really warms my heart up. There are still quite some other games to play again as well. Even if it’s just for the sake of collecting trophies, the PS3 days are definitely unique. Thank you so much for spreading awareness to such an amazing generation of gaming.
Glad I could help!
You are going to get ban in psnprofiles lol
Even when the day arrives that all games for online gameplay for the PS3 are dead and gone, at least we will still have a ton of single-player games we can still play and get that feeling of what it was like to play those games during the height of the PS3 era. Currently, I'm on my PS3 in front of my TV playing "Enslaved Odyessey to the West" and this game never gets old. This game is one of many games that make having a PS3 worth having in the first place.
And by the way, I always use a Dualshock 3 controller on my PS3 instead of a Dualshock 4 because it just seems most appropriate to do so. These days, I really value genuine DS3 contollers because most of DS3 controllers on marketplaces like Amazon and Ebay are fake ones. Take care of your devices people.
Looking at it now, I'm sure online games will survive on the ps3 like on xbox. Fans are starting to get their head around preserving old mp games through private servers. Not everything will last but there will be some holdouts I bet.
Yeah, it took me 3 months to get 2 REAL controllers. I had to buy the last SIXAXIS controller on stock. Completely unused but opened. My second controller, also just an SIXAXIS was also a journey... But hey, now I have 3 SIXAXIS controllers and they're all real!
Folks, don't buy Dualshock controller. They all scammy and fake. They upload real pictures and shipping fakes ones.
You can't aim with these. It's not possible to play shooter with them. They also super cheap and extremely dangerous. They explode. It's not even a joke.
So just get SIXAXIS controllers! Because the SIXAXIS was never faked. Not a single time. If you see a pure SIXAXIS controller you can be 99% sure you got a real one.
Good luck friends. I paid more for my controllers than for my PS3.
Today I tried PS Rewired Killzone 2 and Motorstorm with my friend. We could stop saying "go next". And the yesterday Killzone 2 community event has shown me how much I've missed by not having PS3/X360 back in those days. THANK YOU COMMUNITY!
17 years just sounds crazy! wow time really flies
To be honest, PS3 graphics still look amazing too, I have a 4K 58" Samsung smart TV, PS3 graphics hold up solid in my opinion, almost the same as PS4...I have a PS4 too...definitely not getting a PS5 if I don't have to
I miss killzone 2 and 3 to death, its literally my fav Multiplayer franchise of all time and i think about it everyday.
Killzone 2 can be played on a private server. We have full matches on Saturdays.
How@@GamingTheSystems1
I'm a heavy MotorStorm and PlayStation Home player, i'm so glad these are back thanks to these people. Not to forget about Resistance which is also a big part of my PS3 journey.
PS Home and Resistance 2🔥 Killzone 2 and 3 was great too!
LittleBigPlanet, some R&C games and Uncharted series.
I dont know what happens to ps5. Every new game feels like the other game. Just cinematics. I want sth fresh like a new Resistance game with campaign, coop and 50vs50 multiplayer!
AND OF COURSE: Social feed / communities. That was the best way to use which trophies my friends owning and to find some people in old games.
PS Home was a surreal experience that people don't even believe me nowadays if I talk about it... I miss it dearly.
The 7th gen was the golden age of MP. I still play Gears of War & killzone 2 online for a reason!
GOW1 MP was awesome. I spent countless hours in 07 playing it 😅
@MAWK3 it's my favorite game, and I love hoping on occasionally, and there is a solid discord community still for it!
I recently got a PS2 and PS3 and I'm having so much fun playing some of the old classics I loved from back in the day. I'm currenlty playing Prototype 2 and GTA 5 on Ps3 and Robot Wars on ps2 that I picked up from the UK CEX shop for under £3 pound each. Can't wait to build up my collection. Great vid mate.
16 years old playing my dads ps3 , man how much i wish i was born earlier so i could’ve enjoyed these games at its main prime , as a kid i played ps2 and ps3 def raised right🙏
He definitely did! Big ups to your dad 🙏
I love this video had to subscribe you can hear your passion for the ps3 so much nostalgia in this video for a time that will probably never come back it seems when I talk to other gamers now the passion is gone they bounce around from game to game I am happy to hear there is still a community though
I still use my ps3, currently i'm playing the battlefield serie, 10$ a game, a good 20-30 hours of gameplay! Great video!
Great video, the soundtracks you chose are perfect and generation defining for the ps3. Gave me huge nostalgia thanks bro💪🏼
Warhawk, MAG, Killzone 2 amd 3, and Unreal Tournament 3 were my favorite online multiplayer experiences of the PS3 gen.
Warhawk in 2007 was insane. 4 player splitscreen and all 4 of you can go online in 32 player matches.
Theres a whole host of remasters and revision games as well as obscure exclusives on the PS3 that will never leave the platform and unless you have the means to emulate with RPCS3, they will be forever lost because Sony hates backwards compatibility now.
This video is a real nostalgia trip. I remember playing COD on my PS3, and it was so fun playing with others.
PS3 was also the last of playstation consoles to allow backwards compatibility.
No it's not. The Playstation 5 is backwards compatible with Playstation 4
You have a really great channel man, I been eagerly awaiting all your videos!
Thank you so much! Really means a lot to hear that 🙏
I've played Killzone 2 and Motorstorm via PS Rewired recently. Has been a blast.
Killzone 2 ❤
Thank god Sony didn’t shutdown the PS3 Online though
Even if they shutted down people will reopen it and some other ways but it won't be under Sony's control so they won't benefit if they did
A very nice video. Thanks.
I'm playing with my PS3 rn too and was my first and loved console, I agree a lot with you btw great video
Thank you man! The PS3 steals most of my time whenever I get the game nowadays.
I'm playing the Blur PS3 Online nowadays and it is one of the best vehicular combat racing game. It is not always avaible to play online but when it does, it is one of the best multiplayer experience.
I owned a ps3 back when it came out but I was a poor college kid. I still have it. I am almost done with my ps4 library and no PS5. Thinking about filling out my ps3 library and going back.
Very good work.... Your vidéo is always Nice...
Thank you bro! 🙏
I still have my PS3 and it is still is goat and nostalgic. 🐐
When I used to be a self-proclaimed game collector, I had a PS3 from 2017, up until last year (2022), due to selling it because of financial difficulties. I was playing Transformers Fall of Cybertron, Uncharted 3, and Battlefield 3 mostly for online games. Those games were so fun.
Nice man! The transformers' games were really under apericated.
I've been collecting 360 for a few years now. My favorite is my Halo 3 360.
I have a friend who still plays the 360 and more specifically mw3 original. I say what's up every once in a while and respect he just loves that time in gaming
It's so crazy that Xbox360 was more popular than the PS3, simply because Halo 3 carried it. Compared to the PS3 where the multiplayer is varied (even PlayStation Home was cool) and online multiplayer was free.
Thing is if we go by sales the ps3 managed to catch up to the 360 in the end.
I think it was tough because Xbox360 came out sooner and was cheaper so if you bought an Xbox it was harder to jump to PlayStation
PS3 beat the 360 by sales even though it wasn’t by much. 360 came out first too.
@@cripbk2147There's that and it also had people, that just bought both
That Resident Evil 5 End Chapter theme music though 4:07 :P
56 games and still playing
It would be nice if on PS6 they could finally emulate PS3 games on it and even read discs. It’s kind of silly how you still need a PS3 around for certain games it’s a great pairing with a PS5 but one day it would be nice if a PS6 could embrace BC the way Xbox does. We know the unique architecture of the PS3 has to do with it but they are emulating PS3 on PC nowadays it can be done.
I think personally for me what makes me love the 7th gen gaming era, especially ps3, is that this was a time that developers were actually making games for adults, now developers know that children are, for the most part, the biggest player base, so knowing that’s the target audience they just tone down everything, that’s just one reason why games aren’t as interesting to me anymore
Games aren’t toned down for “children” that’s why we have a esrb rating, they are toned down and less edgy because they need to up their esg score and increase their stock value
@@Nightcrawler90210 to elaborate to that as well, games as a whole are more violent than ever and some games are more in depth than ever. Be real, back in the day the most complicated games were stuff like Starcraft and Command and Conquer, and we still have games similar to those today. Games like Dead Island 2, trepang 2 and honestly The Last of us 2 have been adding incredible gore systems and the ERSB wouldn't even let us play Manhunt 2 uncensored at an M rating. That game is a child's cartoon compared to the things you can do to people in games today.
Baldurs Gate, Ready or Not, Elden Ring, certainly made for adults.
Great console! I grew up with it and still have fond memories. Unfortunately my ps3 isnt here anymore but thx to rpcs3 i can revisit old games on pc
I love being able to go play tranzit online and der riese and kino der toten.
I used to have no issues finding full lobbys on mw2 up until covid but now i cant find a lobby anymore 😢
Still havent had an issue playing mp on bo2 yet tho which makes me happy 😃
Minecraft hunger games on ps3 is always fun
Well i play em solo
Loved playing Socom confrontation
The Little big planet soundtrack always gets me and makes me dream
I was a battlefield 3/4 and Gran Turismo 5/6 online player. I miss it so much 😢
PS Home was by far my favorite. It was my first real introduction to a multiplayer game, you could meet your friends, hang out, meet new people, play minigames, i absolutely loved it. Somehow it just screamed ''this is the future'' especially since i only knew PS2 singleplayer games before back then. There are still videos out there showcasing the final minutes until the servers shut down and its heartbreaking to see the people typing ''I will miss you all''. PS3 was truly peak gaming era.
i live stream gta 4 online very few days and tbh i have so much fun with it more than what i do with the ps4 - ps5
I’d love to see a video that goes through what popular games-such as TF2-that _don’t_ have their servers running, still, as well as which ones do. I’d thought PS3 online play were done, completely, for a couple years, now-obviously not having tried it for several years, in part because I don’t know anyone who still owns their PS3, let alone has it/them up and running... -and so I’d looked at some games that have online support through the games’ communities (TF2, in particular). However, I just got a 2TB SSD for my PS3 Super Slim (my fav because of the lack of a slot-loading drives that break relatively easily but are hard to replace... ), and I’d like to focus on games that still have online support, to load onto that drive, to play them.
So, anywho, I would LOVE to see a video(s) that feature/list games with and without online-maybe a video for each type-because it would be _awesome_ to jump back into PS3 online, especially knowing I wouldn’t have to mess with it to go to “private” servers, per game that is offline, now. I think that would be some pretty popular content, too. Knowing that the PS3 still does online for many games would get a lot of people to break out their PS3s, again, but videos separating those with/without server support would go much further, I think.
Thanks so much for this video-it’s incredibly helpful-and I hope the content looking at which (popular) games (don’t) still do online would be awesome! 🍻
*Yeah, I got and put the 2TB in, knowing it would only recognize 1.5TB-the PS3 limit-because it’s still a much faster and cheaper way to get 1.5TB ($63 for a Silicon Power drive), as compared to getting a 1.5TB HDD, for 3x-4x the price...
Maybe exploring Dead PS3 games or something like that!
Since my peak online play time in 2015 on destiny 1 I've been playing less and less and haven't really been interested in buying new games and especially new consoles and my final days on ps4 online are coming as my ps+ is ending in a couple of days and will definitely not pay more and more just for online play only. I have bought 2 ps3s a backwards compatible one mainly just to collect and a super slim because I plan to use it all the time again as I still have my old ps3 games and plan on buying more.
simple answer it was just the best gaming era ever
I bought the ps3 5 times now and sold them. I still do miss it but trying to go back to 30fps is the rough plus downloading updates/games takes forever. I recall downloading GT6 and my god I had my ps3 on and downloading it for 4 days straight
I rather play 30fps then the shit they put out like a cringe ass netflic original movie. Mw3 sucks and todays new games suck.. I’m still on ps4 and I love it…. Dusted off my ps3 and my connection has always been solid
Maybe takes 4 days to download your updates cause u still live next to mcdonalds using their free wifi ? 😂🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️ he got a ps5 but stealing free wifi lol
It's offline but there's a few tales of games on the console that are exclusive (It's also the only way to play the symphonia sequel) I also was surprised fall for cybertron still had players.
Ps3 is also region free so maybe japanese exclusives with online multiplayer are possible too. My issue with ps3 is inconsistencies with performance on certain games
*ahem* far cry 3
Hell yes, great video, love my ps3...new subscriber..
Great video bro
My favorite online games on ps3 was black ops 1 wished I played more online back then instead of replaying my games over and over again
Could have played killzone 2, 3 or Uncharted 2
i bought 3 ps3s one of my fav consoles and so many fun games
It’s funny because it is true, I do play my ps3 more than my ps5. Like I only play on ps5 with my friends online, but I’m more active on a game called “MNR” a Sony kart racing game and it currently has a community bringing back the online aspects of it. And so I would be helping out by making content there such as anime mods and irl car replicas out of the karts. I have so much more fun on it than I do on ps5.
It's still insane to me that Sony has been supporting this console for nearly 20 years
PS3 until I die, and it's going that way with ps4, people will be still playing ps4 in 2030
Resistance 2 was such a great multiplayer game.
I still got my ps3.Its great to play games on a modern 4k tv😊.
I think the 7th gen was the peak of gaming. At that time, we had truly good graphics and still have many AAA games to play with a very good variety of games. After this generation, AAA games takes way too long to develop so they only develop big multiplayer games or genres they know they'll sell. After this gen there's many genres we don't see that often anymore.
Absolutely. 8th gen and now plays it a lot more safe.
The ps3 is one of my favorite consoles of all time. I played the last of us factions multiplayer till the last day
I still play it on PS4!
Some my favorite was the transformers pvp online on ps3,gta online, super street fighter 4 good times
killzone 3 was LIGHTYEARS away from what we have today. that dam game was ahead of its time
I remember when i first got a ps3 from around august 2020. i played so much sonic because i didn't care for anything else, and then i dropped it in early 2021, and lived to regret my choices. In April 2023, i picked up another ps3, and managed to restore my old account, getting back the sonic games i downloaded via ps store. On disc, i got tomb raider underworld, sonic generations, gta 5 (which became one of my most favorite games of all time), and cod black ops, world at war and advanced warfare. I'm still waiting to get Unleashed on the ps3, so i can relive the memories i had on my og ps3.
Yeah they call a PS3 retro but yet some of the PS3 games look better than modern especially Battlefield 3 looks fantastic for what it is I still play my PS3 constantly I was just playing Far Cry
For me, PS3 feels like "current Hardware".
I love this console so much. ❤
In 2023, I played more on my PS3 than on my New consoles.
I have over 60 games and still buy new ones.
Yes, I'm old and the nostalgia kicks hard. 😅
still boot up my ps3 occasinally and love to play Cod Waw, always find multiplayer and zombies lobbys no problem, aswell as rdr 1 and the undead nighmare dlc
So many PS3 games I'd still play today...
Just bought a ps3 from Facebook marketplace to get on Playstation home but it's no longer available I miss that social space waay ahead of its time
You just gave me ptsd with that gow ascension gameplay, the games was so toxic but fucking NICE to play xd .
i still play ps3 to this day and i love it. my ps3 is jailbroken
Me too 🔥👏
Hell yes my man did not forget savemgo!
Slightly unrelated but in my opinion, the PS3/PSP menu style is unmatched. It was so slick and clean
Agreed. The PS3 user interface is excellent.
i will be hopping back on too ps3 online because of this video
I've been meaning to get through the God of War Games on my PS3, so far I'm in the middle of God of War 2 and am not sure whether I should play in release order by playing God of War 3 next or the PSP games as I don't necessarily want to spoil myself by playing GOW 3 and then going back to playing two enteries that may feel antiquated by comparison.
I beat gow3 on ultimate difficulty, beat that!
i still check minecraft's online multiplayer. seems to be somewhat active from my experience.
Me and my eldest daughter who is 23 used love playing Warhawk together.
I still can't believe we got all these experiences with 512MB of RAM.
I still play my ps3 ( not online) but so many ps3 games I missed yet I still play my vita, psp, ps4 and ps5
Simply because the best games were released on it. unlike what we have right now.
Ive been playing games tht i didnt touch originally and glad i did. Killzone, telltale walking dead, wolf among us, crysis 2 and 3. I love playing my raging blast 2. One of the best looking dragonball games
I still use my Playstation 3, ever so often. Mostly for single player games
I've been using it daily since 2021! It's certainly a console that stood the test of time.
I don't even have a psn account so i play solo and download games from these websites:no pay station works on ps3 however romspure needs usb
I didn’t know the online still works but I still play PS3 its one the best Sony consoles I like it much better than the PS4 and PS5
I still love my ps3, modded with custom firmware (REBUG), with a 2tb ssd, and 50 games installed along with RetroArch
Battlefield 4 still has a great online community on ps3, i play it weekly and have dozens of psn friends who do as well
Could you do a Nintendo Wii U most active online games?
HEY! thats me 5:27 😂😂 that’s so funny
I play ps3 cods daily all games are populated today and can find matches instantly with a normal or open nat type
PS3 is peak gen🙏 I still love using my PS3. Sooooo many many many awesome games.
I would shed a few tears to be able to play MAG online again.
Spoke to the dev reviving it last night. Going to take some time, but they made some significant progress recently.

Call of duty ghost is my fav game to play on the ps3 online back then!
It’s more active then new gen I stg it’s the weirdest thing
It offered the same experience on PS3 as it did on PS4, so no downsides there. With AW you’d see the cutbacks on the older consoles.
I love to playing Ghost Recon specially Future Soldier and Splinter Cell was a lot of fun too
I still play my PS3 to this very day. I even still buy games for it. I don't play online much though. Not anymore. I used to mainly play COD online but, they are all broken now. I think I heard that the games are only broken for new accounts, or if you changed your name. This wouldn't be an issue if I didn't lose my old account that I had for 10 years. Lost that one, made a new one only to learn PS3 COD is very broken when playing on new accounts post 2019. Very sad... I lost the account in a stupid way too. I finally got access to the email associated to the account again, after it got shut down, I got it reopened. But, after linking them back up, I forgot to verify that the email was apart of my Playstation account. So when I lost the password for my PSN account, I couldn't request to change the password as Playstation didn't trust the email since I never verified it. So I lost well over $400 worth of digital games and DLC. But oh well. I had fun; I can still play most of the COD games too, but I gotta do weird work arounds for most of them. One is entirely unplayable for the main multiplayer, one crashes if launched wrong, another one requires you to unplug your router first, and the last one resets rank every time you quit. But at least I can still play them. Even though I haven't tried that in well over a year.
Sorry for the long one. I didn't mean to ramble. Sorry. PS3 is cool, I really enjoy it. Just a little upsetting so many games are being left to rot. Well... I guess the console is gonna be 20 years old soon. So I guess I understand. Still slightly upsetting though. Whatever, peace.
Ps3 mw2 is what I play and it’s crazy that it’s still active. I want an Xbox one just to play the old cods with more people.
