PS3 Do you still have a PS3?

[Guinea]

I freaking wish I did, I wanna play Metal Gear Solid 4.

I bought my first PS3 in 2021 used. It's been a mostly a good console and I've gotten a decent game library for it.

Idk what your PC specs are but RPCS3 is pretty solid these days and runs MGS4 pretty well.

I've had a 1st-Gen phat PS3 for the past 15-ish years. However, I've only used it every once in a while... that is until recently..

I've finally got around to putting a 1TB ssd in it, and properly 'jailbroken' it..

Luckyyy

I would slap Metal Gear Solid 4, Tales of Xillia 1 and 2, Twisted Metal, Drakengard 3 and Front Mission Evolved on that bad boy immediately if it was me.

Never owned a PS3. At 12, I made the leap from the Wii to the Xbox 360, and I don't regret it at all.

Today, I'd buy a PS3 just for its backwards compatibility: just pop the hard drive in with the PS2 and PS1 games and off you go.

I've only had the chance to play a PS3 once, 10 years ago. I helped my cousin complete... Spider-Man 3. Yes, I know... Spider-Man 3.

A modded PS3 is practically an essential with today's game prices, hundreds of great games from 3 generations, definitely still worth owning.

I own two PS3's. One has offical firmware on, a 500gig HDD and a ton of games both bought and from PS+ monthy games.

The other PS3 I have is the greatest PS3 ever owned by man!

 

[MajesticSiN]

Everyone should hack their PS3s

[Heinzu]

Yes but it doesn't work anymore. I couldn't throw it away because my mother bought it for me, it is now something like an exhibit !

 

[Dizzy Darth Vizzy]

Yes!

I have an 80GB model (MGS) that plays PS1, PS2 & (obviously) PS3 games, and I have a PS3 slim.

Yeah, I've been thinking about modding one of my PS3's, but I've not read up on it yet. Do you know the latest firmware that supports hacking it?

My son returned my super slim he’s had for about 12 years this past Sunday. Completely forgot I had it. Loads of games on the hdd and a few games along with it all came back. Managed to get it all set up on psn but not had a chance to play on it yet.

 

[therabidfrog]

Yep. And a PS4 Pro, PSP, PS Vita, PS TV, PS5, and PS5 Pro. You would think I didn't have a grudge against Sony as a company, but... I have no excuse.

I do. I constantly keep asking myself if I should jail break it.

I did a few years ago then Sony pushed a supposed "update" to the blu-ray drive and it killed my console. I had to buy a SATA to usb cable, pull the hard drive out, and reinstall the operating system. Works fine now, but I was pissed.
