      I sometimes wonder where my PS5 will end up. In a thrift store? Selling for 50 on ebay in 5 years time? Selling as a collectors item in 20 years time because its the launch version with PS4 backwards compatibility? (Maybe they remove backwards compatibility on a slim version..)
      Though I am planning to just keep it forever. You never know.

      @@Solidcancer07growing up I never thought I'd ever see the day when I'd find a PlayStation 3 in a thrift store but then eventually I started finding them and bought several of them in working condition. That being said while I do think at some point in the future we may see a PlayStation 5, I have my doubts on whether or not it's going to be in good working condition just because it seems that Sony it's becoming more comfortable banning consoles nowadays as some consoles may have been stolen.

      I don't think obsolete is a good word for it. Nothing else will play PS3 games as well as the PS3 hardware. There is emulation through ps now through streaming, but there is inherent lag through streaming and a limited library. There is also rcsp3 which is awesome, but not fully compatible with all games plus emulation has lag.
      I still use my PS3 slim to play PS1 discs, PS3, 3d Blu rays, and downloaded PS1/PS2 classics/ps minis/ and turbo graphics. The launch PS3 also plays sacd.
      I used to use it more for media consumption like music and movies, but file type limitations and size has stopped me from using it for videos. I will have to check to see if the PS3 has a Plex app. I will never get rid of any of my ps3s. I bought a PS4 and like 4 of my 300 downloaded games transfered to the new system. I sold my PS4 pro not long after I got it.

      @@haseoboi9433 in what way do you mean obsolete? In they way they are not making anymore, yes, or in the way that the PS5 can play PS4 games, also yes. The PS3 is no longer sold, but there is not a perfect way to bring your games into the new generation. The games are still fun. Heck I still play my original Nintendo. The PS3 still has plenty of draw for me still as I posted above.

    I wish my country had a store like Goodwill... I've been trying to get a PS3 for myself for YEARS, but we got it too late in its life, and as such fat models are a mythical sight, super slims are the norm and cost more than slims, and overall the price is just absurd, half a salary for us. Not to mention no one has official controllers, ever.
    I want one that can have CFW installed, because yeah finding the thing is hard enough, let alone its games. I was so positive this year but the only store near me that has them for sale is a big scam and they charge you extra for it too.

    You know idk what it is but I hate good will, I refuse to shop there. Just the though that theres people who think there stuff won’t sell so they just donate it to them, goodwill doesn’t even buy them off people, they are solely running there business off of free items they receive.what happened to them actually donating.

    Do not trust replace thermal paste yourself. What is needed is replacement of the thermal paste between CELL cpu and it's IHS. Removing IHS from the chip is very very risky. You should get it done. That will make your PS3 quiet. Replacing paste between IHS and heatsink will simply not do and will certainly not extend life of this console. I know what I am talking about. Good luck. Don't do it yourself.

    Someone probably just lost the need for gaming or upgraded and never needed the old console. I personally can attest for this I work too much to game besides rarely so my old ps3 and Xbox 360 have been in retirement for 6 or 7 years.

    I own 4 Fat PlayStation 3 consoles myself but unfortunately of the four that I have only two are backwards compatible with PS2 games and between those two one has the YLOD and a repair store said it can't be repaired while the other console actually turns on and works but even then I had to get it repaired and even after getting it repaired it only works for about an hour before it shut down on its own. As for the non backwards compatible ones one has the YLOD while the other one turns on only for the fans to start blowing like a jet engine within a minute. So needless to say I've not had the best luck getting a backwards compatible console.
