    I blinked and the 2010's disappeared, so this console is still only ten years old for me. This is the console I spent hours curating my music, movie, and wallpaper collection as much as playing games. It was priming me for caving to buy a PC.
    Wow, I haven't used that store in over ten years, but it feels like just yesterday I would wake up and immediately hop onto my PS3 to hunt for PSN deals. Sometimes I open the Steam store and I feel like something's wrong but I can't figure out what.

    Without any doubt the PS3 is my favorite console of all time, even I still buy and play games on it to this days.
    Aside of have a giant catalog of games very rich in "variety" in third and FIRST-party games (something that Sony abandoned complety nowdays), the console itself had so many features that no console could beat, I mean what other consoles had the functions to:
    -Create and save music playlist.
    -Burn CD music and convert it to a mp3 file digitally without the need of a PC.
    -Import music to a game and make your own custom soundtrack on it (very few games did that).
    -Download directly to the console or a USB device music, videos and images by the console's web browser.
    -Be able to use a printer on it.
    -Be able to install or use other operative systems on it like Linux (but sadly this option was removed).

    As a self entitled "PS3 Connoisseur" i can say one of the coolest things about jailbreaking a PS3 is PS2 Backwards Compatibility and system mods, fan/temperature control and monitoring, even full UI remaster, in game FPS/temperate, GPU overclocking, emulators, PS2 backwards compatibility is a little tricky, Sony developed a PS2 emulator to run the PS2 Classics games bought on the PS Store, with a Jailbreak you can freely get any PS2 ISO to run in this emulator, with varying results, some titles are perfectly playable while others won't boot, but compability is very high (between 80 and 83%) and some games can get fixed with config files.

      I go back to games from the 1980s regularly still. ...and heck, a lot of the modern games I play look and play like they're from the 90s. I wish companies like Capcom would make throwback RE titles. I think Konami should still be making 2D Castlevania games. There's a market for it and the games cost a fraction of the time & money to put together when compared to modern titles. One failed project can put a well known developer out of business in 2024, solely because of production costs. This is also why we see very few AAA titles that stand out from the crowd. They have to stick with what has proven to work/sell.
      Konami/Capcom could put a group of 10 talented ppl together & they could churn out a great RE/Castlevania game every 6 months. They'd sell great at $9.99 digitally and some of 'em would even do well at $30 for physical copies. The existence of brands like Limited Run games proves there's a market for this.

    1. Get a Slim PS3 (CECH-20xx or CECH-21xx)
    2. Upgrade the internal storage and install CFW (those above were the last models to fully support it)
    3. Install Webman mod, activate your console & install PKGi.
    4. Enjoy your PS1, PS2, PS3 and PSP games. Compatibility for PS2 games is around 77~81% + there are HD remasters like the Ratchet or Sly HD Trilogies, while for PSP it's roughly ~35%. PS1 compatibility using the PS1 Classics emulator is pretty much flawless, 99% of the games will be perfect.
    You can also follow similar steps for an Xbox 360 and take advantage of its backwards compatibility. Owning a RGH 360 and CFW PS3 will let you play a lot of PS2/Xbox games thanks to backwards compatibility. I would say they're easily the best consoles to own right now that are super easy to setup on a modern TV and install games if you're into older games.

      Don't recommend CECH-20xx slims (launch edition slims from 2009).
      These things produce high amounts of heat output, weakening the console's reliability and making it susceptible to overheating and hardware failures. It's
      best to avoid these when shopping for slim models.
      You can also get CFW for some CECH-25xx slim models from mid
      2010 to 2011. These things are great in terms of power efficiency and come with good Blu-Ray driver controllers embedded in the motherboard for greatly improved Blu-Ray reliability. GPUs and CPUs on these have great
      reliability as well.
      And CECH-21xx slim models (from early 2010 to mid 2010) are pretty decent in terms of power efficiency and reliability of the Blu-Ray drive, CPU, and GPU. CECH-25xx slims are just better.

      Problem with CECH-25xx is that it's too much of a gamble to buy one of those online so I'd recommend the CECH-21xx if you're chasing the best possible model without worrying about CFW support but those are actually rare, at least in Europe that's why I went with a 20xx.

    The first system I ever played was Atari 5200 (Pole Position, Centipede, Space Invaders, Donkey Kong)...lol! But then I remember when Nintendo came out and I know that feeling that you're talking about when you finally get it out of the box and set it up and play your first game. It was a good day.😁

    If you're playing PS3 in 2024 you need to change the thermal paste, switch out the HDD for a SSD and install CFW. With CFW you can install all your game discs on the SSD. The console runs silently and load times are quicker. Another upgrade is to use a mClassic to give a sharper image with less aliasing. You can also use a mClassic daisychained with a 4K Gamer Pro to get the games looking nice on a 4K display.

      I did most of that and had the PS3 (Slim front load) modded and (to my surpris) pre loaded with rare PS2 titles like Kings Field Ancient City, Fatal Frame series. I used the PS3 HDD in my recently modded PS2 (FAT) the modder said both systems were in good shape and run even cooler and more quiet now with some new lithium paste on the procs.

    I agreed still have my launch 60GB PS3, which I bought back in March 2007 when I was 17 years old. It cost me around £620 at the time. It has been the best console for me, and I still enjoy playing it now and then. It's hard to believe it's nearly 20 years old; I can remember it like yesterday. I got the PS3 along with the game MotorStorm and a Spider-Man Blu-ray film., you are righ , it makes me feel sick that Since the PS3 ,technology hasn't changed much compared to the PS4 and PS5.

    I still play my PS3 even though I have a PS5. It has some great games on it. And there are still plenty I plan on going out to get. The game library for the PS3 is huge compared to PS4 and PS5 (so far). Anyhow, good gaming is good gaming. And like you said, PS3 may never get old for some people. This includes me.

I loved the 360’s era Gears,Halo,Cod,Forza horizon, was just a different time on 360 so many summers of memories. But I’m glad to hop on the Sony bandwagon

    Had my 60 gig since launch….. got the yellow light the week PSN got hacked. Fixed it and transferred all my stuff to a slim that I put a 500 gig HD in. That’s what J still currently play on even though the 60 gig is fully fixed and working. Have a physical library of around 500 games…. Got every game I really want except Afrika. I’ve loved the PS3 since day one, and still it’s my favorite system of all time. Glad to see people finally coming around to it. Also glad that I got my games back when I was getting them for under $10 each. Being that the 360 was the popular system, it was easy to find games for PS3 cheap. In fact, about 25% of my collection was from a $7.50 game bin at my local Walmart. And these were great games (Mass Effect 2, Undead Nightmare, Split Second, etc….), not just clearance crap. Anyway, love PlayStation 3 and always will……

      @tacos4419 10 днів тому

      @@Videofreak518 I suggest you avoid all the fat models, as they're more prone to issues or may stop working altogether. The slims (especially CECH-25xx and CECH-3Oxx slim models) and especially the super slims (any model), are the most reliable PS3 consoles.
      Avoid the CECH-20xx slims (launch edition slims from 2009). These things produce high amounts of heat output,
      weakening the console's reliability and making it susceptible to overheating and hardware failures.

I have a true backlog a miles long, so no need to really jailbreak it yet. It's cool that people have figured it out though.

    One of the most impressive, but least mentioned, awesome features of PS3 is specifically for GT5 and GT6. Get 3 PS3s, 3 copies of each game and a basic 4-port networks switch. Hook it all up with a g29 and a triple screen sim rig and you've got a pretty kickass 5760x1080 racing experience(no idea what the actual game rez is running at but that's what my monitors were natively). The head tracking with the PS Eye cam never really worked that well but I still have that thing somewhere.
