36 Things We'll Never Forget about the PlayStation 3 

and this is why i love Sony, they did same thing to PS2, they dont abandon old gen like Microsoft does

I've got all the PlayStations and still play on 2 and 3 I only got the PS3 last year and have numerous games I want to complete and numerous games I still want to buy for the PS3 like the TLOU, Uncharted, Two Souls and Remember Me.

u have all of em so the ps pso psx ps2 ps2 slim psp 1000,2000,3000 series and pspgo ps3 phat slim and superslim psvita slim and phat oh and ps4

GTAGAMER ive got a PS, PS1, PS2 Fat, 2xPS3 Slim, PS3 Fat, PS3 Slim a PS4 2nd model 1TB. I should have said consoles. I aint got a PSX they nice but I never use imports. I also had another PS3 Slim but give away to a couple I knew. So yeh I pretty much have every Sony Console. I basically one PS, PS 1-4 every gneration. But their is zero point owning more then one console type and every PlayStation plays the original PlayStation games not sure about 4. But all I play on is 3/4 rarely on 2.. Half my consoles are in cupboards and I have the Original XBox (Modded) and a 360... So basically best of both worlds... Next I plan to build a gaming rig.

I've pretty much got same as u just I have psp and vita 500gig ps4 and a superslim instead of ur 2nd slim I also have an rgh 360 and an og modded xbox

mee 2 i had before xbox and i need it to pay but ps3 is free☺

iFrost_Cloud4183 yh but online is pretty lame tho

gonna miss that free online game

yeah,

iFrost_Cloud4183 I STILL USE PS3😄

Roiice just got a ps4

Roiice but I had a ps3 since

i have ps3 too

I can't sell mine

I dont want to throw mine

[BFPZ] Stunning_Studios [WoTB] also you don’t have to wait a week for gta 5 to install on your ps3

@Afrieno .Z I agree!

And PSN be weakness

Xbox 360 was a joke, even needed Gold to watch Netflix.

Also don't forget that if you bought a physical game and put it in ps3 would not take 3 days to download an update... Good old times...

During my ps3 days, al i ever played was cod onli e year after year. Addicting,but i missed out on a bunch of good games on ps3 and now i have a chance to to play 20 good games for only $50.

First cop was uncharted 1-3 and last of us all for only $10.

glytch101, same. And I refuse to let go of them.

I have a ton of ps3 games to play but when ps5 comes out hopefully it's backwards compatible so I can play ps4 games

i thought they killed the online for that. did they?

well me to.the only reason i.am stil play it is i have no ps4 its so espensive the second reason is i stil waiting for ps4 neo or slim i yhing

Little big planet 4 😂😂😂😂

Oh come on this game is the silliest game I've ever played

yeah

I got that 😭

I never got that but my ps3 does freeze

I remember I had a ps1 and my father kicked it on purpose and made me burn it because "I [me] was being a fuck boy with it"

Damn dude. Oo

XgamerGR yeah. true story. my dad was a player back in his day. just being a teenager you know how that goes. i mean now he's settled and happily married and dropped all his hoes. but he still has that spark he had when he was a teen. i can see it from how other women look at him and those women aren't ugly ;) but yeah. sometimes my dad is surprising. lol

***** Well if we are speaking about ganes i remeber that until i was for about 10 years old my father would play with my PS1 at night. Various games. Need for Speed 4 , Gran Turismo 2 , Tekken 3 , Medal of honor etc. I remeber him being a pro in all racing games and even when i let him play any racing game on my PS2 or PS3 even without having played it before he is still 10 times better than me! :p And when i ask him why he is that good he always replies that '' real experience helps a lot''. But still i cant understand how this work anyway. :p

XgamerGR Well Gran Turismo is the real driving simulator so maybe that's why he knows. I can imagine real experience aiding in a game like Gran Turismo and other racing games like Need for Speed. I wonder if learning to play GT will teach us how to drive lol :p

BRo my ps3 Will never retier

true

True enough. Couldn't agree with you more. :D

Me too lol

Late 2016 for me

+Ilrm12 gay

Hector Garcia the only insults 10 year olds can use

so do i but I'm still going to stick with the ps3

I got a PS4 for black friday, well worth it imo.

Isaac Fox IKR! 👍

Can you send me your ps3 for 150 $ please

VsyncGaming wish I could!!

sad :(

I have a PS3 ;) what's up with the trade?

i don't know but that was a dumb idea. U know how much cost a ps3? its not too expensive to change it to a ps4 and there are not releasing new games for the ps3 only a few ones

+Fabian tugfaxd I kept my PS3, when I got the PS4. I only got my PS3 last year and they are a ton of games I haven't complete and my plan was to get the Remasters of great PS3 titles. However the PS4's game foot prints are huge. I've only had my 1TB PS4 a few months and it's full :(

the dumbest man ever

Fabian tugfaxd SHUT UP YOU SPOILT BRAT

Me

It's still new

Koahlah a ps3 is not doing this whitout a resson !!!! Sry for bad eng

Koahlah Very true XDD

True trying to turn it on damn it it froze again

I used to have a game i think it was something like skylanders (i was like 10 so dont judge my 10 year old brain) i put the disk in my ps3 and it would take LITERALLY 2 HOURS FOR IT TO SHUT OFF AFTER FREEZING....Yea im 14 now and that was SO trash, but i still use my PS3 to this day and its gr8...

Koahlah my ps3 just starts up randomly in the middle of the night and then i have to turn it off :D

PS3 the only console that supports 'free online'

Erencan Akcay true DAT BTW Xbox sucks

Short on money but need new video games and movies? Pick up video games and movies using totally free PSN codes. badasscontent.com/527749406 Is actually where I get my free PSN codes from.

PopTart41 ps3 has better graphics because it has the cell processor which is better than the 360 and it has blu-ray

imran sheikh Developers only got the hang of the cell processor in the past couple of years. It was a completely different architecture to any processor that had been in consoles before so it was very difficult to develop for. So some multiplatform games suffered on the ps3, for example Bayonetta had lots of frame rate problems on the ps3. So in the long run the cell processor did not give the ps3 much of an advantage and most multiplatform games look almost identical on both consoles. Also the ps3 has 256mb each for the graphics and processor whilst the xbox 360 has 512mb of shared ram so the amount of ram the graphics and processor gets can be dynamically changed which is beneficial for games. Skyrim had many problems on the ps3 because of the allocation of the small amount of ram.

Eugene InLaw I Still Play On RCA

Eugene InLaw I totally agree with you. Do the next gen consoles have them? (I asked just out of curiosity)

Preston Johns dunno. but sure is sad that nvidia doesn't play on imbedding RAMDAC's in their reference cards anymore. this means no analog monitor support

Preston Johns No, it's HDMI only.

FiZZ S-Video Master Race!

Not if you want to play the newest games.

Murphdawg1 gaming if you want to play the latest games you should get a pc But both pc and playstation are great platforms I have a ps3 since 2014 and i love it

Luca and Raul ihave ps3 since 2009

Gerard Ferrer, not for online

Nnnooopppeee

Raghu Krishnan play all the exclusives then when the ps4 price drops play the shit out of that

+Raghu Krishnan I bought it in early 2015, It was on sale :P (PS3 Slim)

Argument Creator 2.0 enjoy and mil the exclusives

+prtonananaloski2 for the PS4 don't forget no bluetooth headsets, no custom themes for the home menu, no CD's, no DVD's, lack of 3d games, no 4k, and no worth while 8th gen exclusives yet (Just Cause 3 will likely be the first). all PS4 does is play games in 1080p at 30 or 60fps with better textures. enjoy your indie games, PS4 owners XD

can't believe people are still commenting on this lol Trainboy1EJR. are you being sarcastic?

GOOD GAME me

GOOD GAME i am

GOOD GAME I too

GOOD GAME me

I have the next gen consoles and PC but for some reason I am still so excited to get another PS3, I ordered it yesterday It should get here anytime next week!

true but no vibration

+Fionn Scott or PS button :(

Headphone jack not working either

But it's still great.

I have a PS3

Paige Lirette nope

Still has better games than Ps4

Heck no! I am not impressed by the PS4. Sony seems to have forgotten that a lot of customers have invested over $300 in GAMES for the PS3. Do they really expect 95% of them to just throw the games away and say "Gimme a PS4?" And no, the PS4 does not play older discs.

Paige Lirette yep your alone, i hardly even played my ps3 when i got it in 2017 christmas, got a ps4 pro in janurary 2018 i play the shit out of it. buying ps3 so late when the system was no longer supported was a mistake.

still playing ps3 in 2018

The Clairvoyant you forgot the 👍

Still playing ps4 in 2026

Still playing in 2019

Your Username Is Shit. Nintendo FTW!

kirbycake86 Wah, jelly with my user name, nintendrone?

+Nintendo Sucks (Dino2013) Microshit Fanboy

kirbycake86 If I were a microsoft fanboy, I would be owning an XOne instead of the Wii U.

+Nintendo Sucks (Dino2013) I Now Own Respect For You, You Have A Wii U

Same here

That's good for you. I love it. Just played it for hours.

***** ps3 is Awesom i dont want to move next gen

You and me both...

Never too Late to get a PS3 and i'ts Worth. :)

OMG SAME WOOOOOOO lol I don't want no ps4

im getting the ps3 mainly for the game selection, grew up around with the ps2 along with devil may cry and the kingdom hearts series. now i can play those on ps3 :3 along with the tales series games wich i just recently found out about :D

William Brown comment ur psn if u have it

... 23 days to go man... but it will probably be Animegamer87

FTW ! bye bye free online gaming

Deante Haney Hello, free PS+ games !!

KeeseToast true I love PS Plus Lol

István Pribék nevermind

Michael Gambin I bought it 2 weeks ago :')

Neil Fama Whats ur name . Add me im michael0241 . cheers mate and have fun :D

Michael Gambin What games do you have?

Demon Rantz I got Fifa 14 , Need for Speed Undercover and I`m buying GTA V next week

ps3>ps2 lol wtf...but ps2 is still a great console

AlexPlaysFTW agree

Only because old versions can vacuum your floor

nope ps2 is best

PS3 plays all the ps2 games and has PlayStation store to play ps one classics and ps2 classics without a hefty price tag soo by that logic PS3 wins.

Definitley, still playing ps3 and ps2 ports MGS and DMC, good stuff.

I still love playing the original COD 4, my Resident Evil games and my Tomb Raider games. There's a reason RE and TR have a large cult following.

I think, the PS4 finally made it in 2018

Abdulwahab Rajeh overall yeah But quality over quantity

Agree

SpareBrains561 you better stick to English class.

Down For A Movie what about 23 PS3 games

Keegan dsilva what about 50+ games

Same

***** Lel, to each their own I suppose

Are you stupid? They ended up shutting it down because they weren't making enough money off of it to have it running in the first place. The profit they were making hardly hit their quota. They figured it'd be easier just to end it, considering the PS4 was coming out very soon.

+Kevin Deegan there should have been ways to get stuff without spending real life money. like a currency system you get for playing games

making me feel bad about swaping it ;'9

Why? Namco Bandai still has games coming for the PS3, and I doubt they're alone.

No it dont. If you dont upgrade it means your to poor. There's nothing left the PS3 has to offer that wont come out on PS4 which will be leaps better! So upgrade ffs. Playstation 3 is shit. Running 30fps 720p on lowest settings (oh btw it offend drops to 20fps too in gta lol

philip s WRONG!!!!....

ps3 is comparable to an ultra low end pc. ps4 is considered a high end pc...

michigan1777 PS3 is comparable to no PC because PC settings can't go that low in many games, and the PS4 is comparable to a mid-range PC.

ehhh id still say hi range. I have a mid range pc and i know my ps4 is more powerful than it haha

OpinionDay007 HA HA HA!

none yah bizwax 😂😂😂😂

OpinionDay007 ever heard of the PS4? Lol

Xx xX it was sarcasm😑😑

P.S 4 indeed... next thing you will be telling me is that virtual reality is actually a thing...

Did you get a ps4

The satisfaction of milking every last drop of what an old system can offer maybe, plus good old memory of childhood.

Naa I didn't get the PS4 I decided to play all the iconic ps3 games before buying it Flash Ryder​ You know it man! *****​

same and I still use it

Mine started to die at 7 years.

I have a PS1, PS ONE, PS2 (fat), PS2 (slim), PS3 (fat), PS3 (slim) and PS4, still playing all of them.

+Silent Rain wow so do I except my PS3 FAT doesn't work got it given and never worked has two slims at one point and had a Super Slim that didn't work was going to buy a hdd for it but it got accidentally binned :(

***** I didnt buy any of my PlayStation consoles apart from the PS1, so how could I use money that was never mine to buy a monstrous (assume you meant that) gaming pc?

same here, but no psp or vita

you missing out on the vita.

+Jonathan “GHOST” Vazquez nah, the PS3 will be left in the dust and everything left qwill be shut down probably even sooner than 2020.

I’m from the future and the servers are still up. I love my PS3 especially the launch model.

It actually got a new game this year and the servers are still up and running

CruzNation The only good SWBF Game left

+Cal K. I still have my ps1 ps2 and ps3 i dont have ps4

get one

+curiosy gamer just get a 4

I know

+Rising_Legend nah man gotta experience that nostegia

Lol

get a modded ps3 console you can download games for free on it.

Well, now I'm getting a PS4 for X-Mas, so that's awesome!

TheFoxyLlama ok llama.

TheFoxyLlama you spoilt shit

How am I spoiled? I've never had an Xbox, Playstation, anything. All I had was a Wii, and it wasn't even mine! It's been a long time coming for this gamer to get his dream console. I'm not just getting it anyway, I am paying $100 for it.

LOL so true. I just finished buying an XBOX360 for 100 bucks and on my way to get a PS3 for 70!! Last gen FTW because it'll have a majority of the games this gen has. This gen looks better but not for 400 dollars though.

AfroSnackey 400$ only?it's 700$ here in Serbia

I think the reason why games are cheaper in America is because we were consuming them before they were popular and now that it's mainstream and accepted by many people in the states, companies have no choice but to sell it for less than their bottom line or risk financial ruin.

***** geee thats rough =/

Jesse Powell omg same here lol

well the xbox isn't bad either but I never could play with it because i always had a fight with the controller when i was playing by a friend (I never had a xbox)

It actually is kind of bad, it's definitely inferior to the PS3 on almost everything important anyway.

oke, than im glad i have a ps3 and soon a ps4

I think the both have their own advantages and disadvantages

Bryan sam Of course, but with the 360 they aren't as noticeable anymore. For example, the 360 was easier to develop for and has more immediate hardware power, but now that developers are getting better and better at using the PS3, and because the PS3 has far more hardware potential locked away for developers to find, the PS3 is always going to win.

somebody that understands, FINALLY

Ya totally 😂😂😂 those shitty controllers with a shitty interface. Wow you have no clue do you? Those mushroom joysticks are shit get out of here

Just didn't tho. Ps3 wasn't even a decent system till 2008.

not rly... it outsold the Xbox in worldwide sales

please no just +strydezer0

Wasn't the most popular console the PS2? Over 140 million units sold or so as reports say.

He's talking about last generation.

How can you say the PS3 was better, the complete lack of a party function was one of its major flaws that was never fixed until next gen, not to mention it ran games like crap compared the the 360 in the middle of both consoles life time (which was when they were most played). The 360 was just more polished and featured far better exclusives

yea try no.. just cause the people that liked it and you only have a ps2 cause you're 11 and your dad won't buy you a ps4 doesn't mean that ps2 is the best. okie?

Depends, i guess it had some good perks, ps3 is overall better, and like i said, you can't afford a ps4. neither can i,i mow lawns or in this scase plow snow for money. made already 180$ in 2 weeks and im 13

False, ps2 had only up to cod3, doesnt even have the new fifas.

NorthernPike Kid you were way too young when PS2 was out

bro.. i was 7 when ps2 came out, got it when i was 8,

yea

no till like 2023

nope i think ps5 are coming soon i hope ps5 are finished to ps4 are cheap and i will get it

Jorge Almanza I doubt that. Cyberpunk and Final Fantasy VII Remake are future games for the PS4 and the games are not out yet. The PS4 Pro seems like a PS4.5

Jorge Almanza no it isn't

BenjerminGaye ikr ps3 is beast

BenjerminGaye vote ps3 for president

Nyne not everbody has money for 1000 dollar pc

I am.
