Booting an Original PlayStation 3 with Original Firmware 

That TV really makes it fit.

Haven't had a TV like that since 2009. Let me tell you, those suckers are HEAVY.

Don’t upgrade that, An OG PS3 running firmware 1.0 is genuinely a treasure

This just unlocked memories I forgot I had. I remember the PLAYSTATION 3 spiderman splash every time I opened Far Cry 2/Fallout 3/Uncharted, etc.

this was pretty high-end back in 2006, i mean still have pretty nice features and games still look prerty nice, just is old system.

1:52 god I love that sound

Pure nostalgic bliss! I own four PS3s from that era, but only one is still on that older firmware.

Man, I really miss the backward compatibility :(

My heart dropped when you went into System Update and clicked Ok... I love Firmware Versions under 3.00, I downgraded a 80gb CechL to 2.80 because I got bored one day and wanted to Old Boot and Gameboot, I have multiple Jailbroken Consoles too, I should make a Video on them really. Shame you got scammed for it, That's what scares me out of selling through eBay. I have an Instagram with my Consoles and that which is the same name as my RU-vid :)

That projector TV and those two ps3's are actual gold now, so much nostalgia ❤

I liked that sound at the beginning more than the current one, when you hear it for the first time it sounds like you are going to have the best experience playing

This thing was a beast. So many movies and music installed on my PS3. Great media hub.

That orchestral opening.... Just magical to 13 year old me. XD

I love and miss how the old game boot screen displays a playstation 3 script in case you forget you're playing a playstation 3 😅

Always preferred the original background without the strange sparkles, felt more classy.

I miss the spiderman font they should have kept it

Got to love that sound of the old consuls

Wow, it worked 3 minutes without YLOD. Unbelievable.

0:10 ahhh I can’t decide whether this or the new startup sound is better

Ah, the good old days... ...where Sony didn't ruin it by REMOVING THE BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

after getting used to my custom cold boot this was so weird after not seeing this for years

I'm 25, I remember very well when my father gave me the ps3 in August 2008 with the first game: "Tony Hawk" and I had a similar TV in the video and I remember the beautiful old animation: "Playstation 3" everything was better. ❤

I love how you still have that! I love the beauty of those projector TVs, they are very nice, my grandad still has one in his house, it’s a 60” grand wesa I think thats whats it called! And I love it. It’s very beautiful

i had a little heart attack when he was about to update

No one's gonna talk about Life With PlayStation? Man those were the days.

This old startup sound i love it

That was a good time , simple times

i really miss the old ps3 splash screen when starting a game

Nice bit of nostalgia here, this I the model I had back then.

Man, this TV's are so cool

There are very few videos on youtube with pre 2009 firmware...

1:53 Do You Recognize That Font?

*_I used to own them big ass tvs before... good times..._*

I miss the system and game start up sounds I really wish they would have left it alone when they changed everything on the PS3

The TV was even in overscan mode for that perfect cable TV era feel

AMO mi PlayStation 3 FAT....aun JUEGO Los de PS2 Y PS1 Como EXTRAÑO ese SONIDO CUANDO comenzaba un juego PLAYSTATION 3❤💖❤💖❤💖❤

the ps3 had a way simpler and organized menu xmb than the ps4 and ps5. There is no need to a upper section for friends and trophies and more in ps4 and ps5

I miss TVs like that. It was a shelf/TV

I bought the CECHK01 ps3 in 2008, along with a sony bravia that came with a home theater speaker system and bd player after i bought the ps3. Running a sony console on a sony tv at the same generation feels so nostalgic (at least for me)

How did you get the original PS3 cold boot in 2009 when the slim cam out sony took the coldboot away from fat consoles

What kind of big TV like that do you have?

Old firm ps3 with sony VEGA TV!= perfect mid 2000s

Hey everyone i have a question so basically there was a mod which you could do where you would replace the 3.00 firmware boot and game coldboot screens and sounds with the og 1.00 firmware but they weren't as og as i thought they would as the startup screen comes and fades like the 3.00 firmware startup screen and i was wondering, i have an old hdd on 2.80 and multiman on it on theoretically, if i rip the same files as the mod from the og drive my ps3 came with which has the old firmware could i possibly use them for the mod or will it mess something in the ps3 and brick it completely, thank you

i screamed "no" when he pressed ok to that firmware update

I remember the OG as a kid when my uncle just got a PS3!

Yo dude where did you get this original old ps3 firmware version I'm trying to find one for my son since he wants to have an old version of the ps3 original no mod since he wants to explore it and play games on it do they sell them on ebay or something else he loves old versions of consoles since i bought him a 360 with the blades dashboard original he takes very care of it playing 3 hours and leaving it off for 1 hour and a half

What was behind the flap on the left side? i cannot open mine there.

0:31 Yep just like the Xbox 360 is required to update if u want to go on the internet.

Rusty: Is no one gonna mention why my mans has 2 PS3’s.

Is that a projector tv? I broke mine back in the mid 2000's using a ps3. Manual said to not hook up to a projector tv, found out after.

What TV is this. it looks dope

Is there anyway to get the gameboot font back?

That’s not the original firmware tho. That 2.6 is from late 2008

Any more information on how the buyer tried scamming you when you were selling it??

I love that bubble in the top right hand corner why did they remove that?

Sweet PS3 nostalgia!

0:03 That sound thoooo

I didn't know tony Hawks pro skater 3 is backwards compatible I tried twisted Metal Black and Shadow of the Colossus and my PS3 said they are unsupported discs meaning they're not backwards compatible I tried klonoa door to phantomile for PS1 and it was backwards compatible

Now, that's the best model of the PS3. It's better than the shitty slim.

0:56 why your ip adress?

Damn bro I love your TV, that shit must be HEAVY as fuck

Did PS3 was originally released in Japan

Boots up faster than PS5

The TV really makes it

Hey issac how cheap are ps3s currently ? Thanks guys! I got one

Bro doxxed himself by fault of a PS3 💀

What the hell is this PlayStation 3 TV Video Cable?

2.80?

What tv model is that?

What’s with the tv?

So Old that this was like in 2006.

1:09 "Do not accept" GOOD

This isn't the original firmware. The RSS / PlayStation news feed, Trophies, and also half of those system settings options, weren't in the launch "1.02" firmware.

0:34 the time on the top right corner tho

Wouldn't it just be so awful if you accidentally hit the "Update" button.

that is exactly how my old ps3 looked but with new firmware and i dont know where it is

Looks almost exactly like the PSP menu

that a projector tv? I had one growing up, my brother exploded it playing COD on the wii

Interesting trophies are under game then online related cool. System Settings in awkward spot as usual. Other OS. Printer maybe then. Orchestra music. Little details in menu & PS1/2

This is cool 😎

Ah good ol Video 6 for HDMI

Ma Man has Spyro DotD inside the blu ray driver.

Your room sounds like you are in the backrooms

If you ever sold it, it would probably cost 2x its price

Yoo I just got exactly the same console with 2.60 firmware and didnt even know it🤩

Ok so nobody’s gonna talk about how he leaked his own ip?

Why is it only now i realize the playstation 3 font is the exact same as the sam Rami spiderman

If I have permission to ask. How did you get it temporarily running?

I've got a ps3 and still got the original version!

Wow a ps3 60gb I'm saving up the money this friday?

I love my PS3...

Did you still get the console back from the buyer ?

this video is gonna blow

Im going to cryyyy

3:03 ????

1:52 my ps3 dont have this sound :(

I remeber having the same tv

this one still can run linux, its a very rare ps3 u have. Please dont uptade it

Good times.

Pretty nice considering it’s age.
