    Crazy to think that all you need is a PS3 and a PS5 to play the entirety of the PS library.

    • @NVintage
      @NVintage  Год назад +14

      True, but if that is the case, you can just jailbreak ps3 slims which are practically bulletproof and have the same features of a ps3 launch model, Including backwards compatibility.

      Only the 20xx model slims (the first revision of the ps3 slims) had the tendency to YLoD due to the fact that those models also had Nec/Tokin capacitors that can fail over time. If you replace those, it should be fine again.
      But also you should definitely read the syscon for error codes so you can know for sure

      Sure but if you have to cash to buy a launch backwards compatible ps3 then I say go for it. You can have three full playstation library's with only one console that's alot of games. And two because of modern displays the backwards compat ps3 gets the edge because you can play those ps2 games upscale to hdmi which you simply arnt getting on a ps2 best you can do is component but then again finding component cables for ps2 are expensive and alot of modern tvs don't even support component or even composit cables anymore

  • @Manic_Panic
    @Manic_Panic 11 месяцев назад +1

    So for those who are confused about PS2 compatibility or compatibility in general on later models through jailbreak, here's the current numbers.
    2250 PS2 games are fully playable with no issues, 300 have minor issues (a few slowdowns or small graphical bugs), 85 have major issues and 38 are unplayable. ALTHOUGH, most of the "unplayable" games are online only like EverQuest/Final Fantasy 11 and some require specific usb accessories the emulation doesn't support like Lifeline. Also, some games have HD remasters so you can bypass emulation like Ratchet & Clank, Jak & Daxter, Sly Cooper, ICO/Shadow of the Colossus, FF10 and GoW 1 & 2.
    Tl;dr: You can play 80% of the PS2 library fine, or 95% if you don't mind the minor issues games. Compatibility can still improve further if the community can make more config files for the remaining broken games. PS1 compatibility however is the same on all PS3s.

    YLOD is not just the tokens... the CPU and the RSX where very poorly designed and due to the heat and cooling fluctuations they would essentially break apart on the inside which is why you are starting to see older ps3's with 40nm swaps. so while the tokins can cause ylod they are most certainly not the main reason for the issue.

    • @DeadlyHellhound
      @DeadlyHellhound Год назад +2

      Its primarily JUST the RSX(GPU) and sometimes the Nec/Tokin capacitors.
      Replace that sucker of a GPU with a Slim Ps3 GPU and should be golden
      The CELL(CPU) on the other hand are tanks, very well fabricated from the start. Never seen a CPU fail on its own on any PS3

The CECHG01 which I have now (as well as all the other later fats with the silver disc drive) are the better more reliable ones. They dont play PS2 games, but thats why its better to have an actual physical PS2. It's way less of a headache

    the main cause of the ylod was never the capacitors, they can still cause it but the biggest reason is the solder balls under the rsx chip that connects it to the dye which is the green board under the chip when you delid the rsx cracking overtime and breaking the connection to the motherboard, the 90nm rsx chips made by nvidia are unreliable

    Personally recommend anyone looking for a backwards compatible PS3 to seek a CECHE01 model. They were a revision to the launch models and emulated ps2 games instead of running them natively.
    However they are known to be far more reliable and less prone to the YLOD compared to the CECHA01 and B01
