PS3 game prices have started going up in the last year or so. I’m currently snatching up as many as I can before prices get out of hand.
it has gone up recently, in the wild I still find good deals, but stock is disappearing. Find, Hoard, Play, Repeat.
Agreed. Stock in stores has really been suffering lately. I see very little new stuff that’s rare or more collectible come in. Especially stuff in good condition. You can go eBay but it’s a crapshoot. Disc can look perfect in the pic but it’s all scratched when you get it.
The super slim DOES look awful, but it has the smallest CPU and GPU die sizes for the platform which means the least amount of heat and is therefore the most energy efficient. I dove back into PS3 about a month or two ago and grabbed the 4301x model. Even some of the slim models will fail eventually (see: NVidia bumpgate). Kudos on your find; the PS3 era is just magical.
I keep discovering more and more gems on the system. The hardest thing is to decide what to play tonight.
@@LikeYesterday-sv3kr I have decision making paralysis whenever I stare at my wall o' games 😂
lol. Ill gladly take the few extra watts of energy use along with a thermal paste swap than use the ugly azz cut down el cheapo super slim
The ps3 is the most unique console of all times
Absolutely, so in love with it.
PLAYSTATION 3 was a great era in video games really enjoyed your thoughts and formulation of this video, keep up the good honest views, an enjoyable watch for sure.
Thank you so much, I really apricate the kind words. thank you for taking the time to watch.
If you like stealth action like games, I really recommend Metal Gear Solid 4 and the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection. Those games should be any PS3 collection if you would like the games or not.
Thank you, I will be looking out for it
Chase the express 👌💪💪@@LikeYesterday-sv3kr
The PS3 FAT is more of a collectors item IMO, particularly the PS2 hardware back-compatible ones. I barely played mine over the years and never had an issue, but stopped a few years ago because was getting hot when I fired it up after years. I bought a slim. The biggest thing I noticed was how much faster games and screens loaded. A slim is a way better idea IMO.
I do agree, Slim is slicker and still powerful, I would add the fat just for show, but the Slim, as time goes by I am falling in love with this console. The games are fantastic.
love 7th gen and been collecting for a while, and the ratchet & clank are great, all 4 one is one of my favourites
It's really cool that you have found the PS3 in this stage of your life. Back when it was released I had an 8 year old son and we began playing online for the first time and there is so much nostalgia to that machine that I have kept all of our game saves and all of our games over the years. I must have close to 100 PS3 games. I have a slim 320 GB and I have a fat e model PS3 which is emulated PS2 capable. I am having my Fat reballed and delided as we speak. I am keeping both consoles forever. As of recent I've been playing more PS2 and PS3 games than I even play on my PS5. I am bored to tears with the PS5 at this moment. You definitely need to get the first two MotorStorm games. And since you like killzone 2 so much you definitely need to pick up killzone 3. It is more fine-tuned than killzone 2. Both are great. Have fun on your PS3 journey. I
I am on a mission to find Motorstorm. got a copy of Pacific rift, but disc is broke. so the hunt continues. PS3 has brought so much joy, and it keeps giving with the bangers in the wild.
@@LikeYesterday-sv3kr damn, that sucks! I love both games but Pacific rift is the best of the three. I still play both games quite often. I think you will be missing out on all of the DLC though, which also sucks. I have recently been playing NBA jam on fire edition and a game called Pure which is an ATV racing game. It is a very good game. And I've been playing the Infamous games. Those are highly recommended!
Definitely took this advice, The Motorstorm Series and MGS4 are on the top of my list.
I just managed to find MGS4, I hear many praise Guns.. for being one of the best in the series.
MGS4 is a fantastic game. It's epic.
Enjoy
@@steviepower9194 Thanx, will do.
What i like the most is PS3 play ALL PS1 games and i like ps one racing games co-op modevery easy.. PS5 almost impossible to find two player co-op offline mode games
I’m currently playing Watch Dogs 1.
Games I’ve beaten in recent months are:
Heavy Rain
Beyond: Two Souls
Jak and Daxter
Sly Cooper 1
Tales of Xillia
Resistance 1
Resident Evil 5
Pretty much been PS3 playing exclusively.
Nice titles. same here, leaning into PS3 hard. Thing is I keep finding great games, joy is just endless.
I have a PS3 Slim with PS3HEN. I’m loving it. Played through “Transformers: War for Cybertron” and now about to beat “Resistance: Fall of Man.”
Excellent, Happy gaming, that console is amazing.
Play prototype 1 and 2, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!
I am on it, heard good things.
If you like God Of War you going to like Dante's Inferno also. Same gameplay and it's awesome basically going through the nine circles of Hell: limbo, lust, gluttony, greed, anger, heresy, violence, fraud and treachery. Each circle features distinct environments, enemies and story elements befitting the sins committed by their inhabitants.
Ha! Whattayaknow? The last game you showed is the one i recommended 😂 awesome
I am loving Dante's Inferno. It is awesome.
Prices starting go up thats why i buy in last mont 350+ games for ps3. This year is last one with normal prices. Xbox 360 now is crazy and hard to find some games
I agree, think over here probably 6 month left to get what I need. Prices will keep going up.
The Simpsons game is a classic fave of mine . I have just rebooted my ps3 again love it ❤
its also becoming fairly collectible. hang onto it.
I am looking for a copy, heard good things.
I actually liked the retro look of the super slim.
No look, I isn't as bad as I make out. At the end of the day, it a working PS3 console. Nothing wrong with that.
Recommend deadpool, wolverine and transformers Devastation. 3 I've played for the first time in the last 6 months and was really impressed
Thanx for the recommendation, I will look out for them.
Definitely recommend getting a ps3 and your favorite games before the prices go up.. I hope the ps2 prices don’t get too crazy there is still a bunch I need to get
Same here. Need a bunch of PS2 games, but I keep finding bangers for PS3.
Ordered my first pre-built PC to play pc games and RPCS3 for Killzone 2/3, resistance, and MGS 4. I cant wait.
Awesome.
Hi great video mate i recommend sc4 if you like fighting games,and motor storm for racers it has a banging soundtrack too.
Hi Thanx so much. I am hunting for motorstrom, heard good things.
I just got a ps3 three weeks ago. maily play the ps3 games, not on Playstation Plus, and also, eventually, the prices for games will go up
I am leaning hard into the PS3 games, trying to scoop up as much as I can, before prices go up, think I have time till the end of the year.
I had a PS3 once and didn't like the limited games game prices. Plus it was the super slim and reminded me of a barbeque
Ha ha ha, it does. PS3 games are really affordable, the hunt for under priced games is a trill, I keep picking up bangers on the cheap.
ive found cash crusaders is the best place to fill gaps in my PS3 collection. recently picked up Killzone 3 and Crysis 3 Hunters Edition for R160 there. sometimes bulk lots on marketplace can have luck but gamers selling their games seem to know a lot more about what their games are worth (although sometimes they over value their games too) whereas cash crusaders and sometimes cash converters do not. they also give you a warranty. as for games id recommend, Uncharted 2 is the best game in the series available on the PS3 in my opinion, Metal Gear 4 and metal gear rising are two very different from each other games but very fun, Call Of Duty Black Ops was my favourite of the COD games released in that generation thanks mostly to the story, Deus Ex Human Revolution was an amazing Cyberpunk RPG game, Deadpool the game was fun but also since its recently been delisted on stores its also become quite collectible, Enslaved Oddessy to The West is really great, azuras wrath and vanquish are really fun faced paced japanese beat em /shoot em ups and if you find the MGS legacy collection grab it because its like hens teeth and has all the metal gear games released up till that point in the collection.
id be very keen to hear which second hand shops you recommend for collecting. take care
You have found the same troves as I, both stores selling PS3 and 2 for what i consider fair. Been picking up titles in great condition. PS2 gams are a bit hit and miss, but sometimes the games work fine. Where are you based?
@@LikeYesterday-sv3kr Edenvale. for me the PS3 and xbox 360 generation was the best as you had a lot of game trading or preplayed stores like BT games or Gamexchange operating from about 2007 to maybe about 2015 where you could pick up games second hand for a song. Bt is still around but they dont do the preplayed games or exchanges like they used to, and if you do find shops like pwned games or games 24/7 theyve pivoted to retro gaming and charge way more than stores like it used to back in the day.
Tbh U're totally wrong. Ps3 is now getting very expensive. Now its grest time to collect ps4. Time for ps3 was 5 years ago.
youre not wrong. but you can still luck out at some places like cash crusaders or charity shops or flea markets. marketplace and bobshop used to be the go to but theyre far too aware of the worths now over there😂. but as you say collect now for PS4 and Xbox one generation.
You are right on that one, it is getting pricey now. I have some places that still offer them cheap, but the stock is depleting fast. I am looking at PS4 games now.
Yeah OEM PS3 controllers are difficult to find
And expensive.
@@LikeYesterday-sv3kr I paid $50 for controller along with a PS3 haha
You can use your PS4 controller on you PS3! Try it out!
I will give it a go.
Lollipop chainsaw is off the wall but expensive..
. also resistance fall of man 1 and 2....
I need to still get Resistance, I will look into it.
I own that game
Most of the modern age "collectors" are already very late. I bough tons of PS3 and Xbox360 games 4-5 years ago... I mean even sealed ones for 3£ to 10£
That is really awesome. A true collector, finding value in a time when no-one was looking. You have my respect for, what I can only imagine is a very impressive collection.
Don't get me wrong, I don't have every game, just stuff I really like and want. I knew the Xbox 360 day will come and it may be even more collectable than PS3, thta's why I jumped mainly on those. Most of the game are still pretty affordable though, maybe not new and sealed, but at the end of the day if you want to play it, then it doesn't matter :)
@@LikeYesterday-sv3kr IMHO it won't be the same for the PS4 or XBOX-S, X...or whatever they call it ...Switch will be the king there :) and if it's not backwards compatible...boy, oh boy... the prices will go to the skies in next 10yrs
@@starline474 i tend to agree. Switch is miles ahead in the future of gaming.
I have a fat PS2 compatible but I don't use it for fear of it breaking lol
Best is to get a slim for playing, keep the fat unused and preserved.
planning on buying my 5th ps3 because i JB them and wanna have a legit one to play online before its closing for good
It is totally worth it.
Bro ,are you calling the controller a "remote"? If that's what you are referring to , my dude the PS3 controller is one of the BEST controllers EVER MADE ....i mean , the battery life , durability, feel , comfort , im just confused right now...what .....You NEED buy a proper PS3 controller
Hot Shots Golf Out of Bounds is reason #1
More classics!
Like how many PS3 consoles does anyone need I own 8 of them not going to buy another one the reason I have 8 is cause my first one broke just for playing PS2 games on it games it just couldn’t handle like marvel Vs capcom 2 it broke my PS3 4 times I never bought another 60 gb PS3 ever again if anyones asking for a lot of money for these dumb PS3 that don’t really play all PS2 games don’t bother you’ll never see a GameStop store ever have one 60 gb model cause they test the consoles before buying them if you don’t want your PS3 to break don’t play marvel Vs capcom 2 on it the easiest way to make sure you can’t is buy a 500 gb model you get more storage it stays alive never breaks
Really, Marvel vs Capcom 2? Wonder why ?
@@LikeYesterday-sv3kr I own 2 copies of marvel Vs capcom 2 one opened used and one sealed that game breaks your PS2 not just the PS3 if you don’t mind to break your consoles go right ahead the console is important you need it if you really love marvel Vs capcom 2 you should of bought the digital copy like I did on PS3 and Xbox 360 that’s delisted now if you want to play it really bad go buy the marvel Vs capcom 2 arcade 1 up that will never break it comes with the original rom
I will keep that in mind, thank you for the comment.
@@stevestars2966 I wonder why?
Here is a better idea don't sell the PS3 you had.
that is one bad PS3 controller.
Get a real controller
3rd party is trash
i have 4 ps3 controllers.
you can use a PS4 and PS5 controller with a usb cord.
You only need a PS3 controller plugged in to press the PS button.
You can play PS1 games on all PS3 consoles.
I found a Real PS3 controller just this week. Much better, totally agree.
I had a super slim but i just hate how it looks so i got a regular slim. PS4 pro still my favourite console tho. I also disagree with the remote topic. Are you using dual shock3 or sixaxis?
Both, i recently got a sixaxis Sony ps3 remote. Much better, controller. PS4 is probably the most complete console, it has a special place for me.
@@LikeYesterday-sv3kr dualshock 3 has rumble and the improved triggers. Oh well agree to disagree. Nice video tho man 💯
ps3 controller is the best moterstom good
Pacific Rift is AWESOME!
Multiman :D
Yes!
If you have a strong PC, there are over 2000 PS3 Titles currently playable in 4k with unlocked framerate and other enhancements through emulation. I had a modded PS3 back in 2020, it was a slow clunky machine by todays standards, I would take the Emulation over the console any day.
That's cool,but I'd rather have my PS3 and physical games
@@OtakuBenny2210and trophies
Yes the trophies
Bro that frame rate gameplay you showing looks terrible but ps3 great console
hi, It has to do with my old editing program. Will upgrade at some point.
Ek het gister n ps3 slim met 10 games grkrt vir 800rand...
Awesome, dis n goeie prys, wat speel jy?
@@LikeYesterday-sv3kr ek is besig met gran turismo 5 en simpsons the game wat ek vir 60rand by n cash crusaders gekry het..
@@schrade4574 Hoe is die Simpsons game?
@@LikeYesterday-sv3kr simpsons is n nice game, dis god of war maar simpsons. Dit het puzzles elemente en free roam, goeie game vir daardie tyd. Dit is n game wat ek nog net eenkeer in die "wild" gesien het...
@@schrade4574 Nee kyk hulle is kwaai duur. Gaan so vir tussen R 300 en R500. Pas hom mooi op. Ek soek juis na een.Thanx vir die reply, wat speel jy nog?

My collection keeps increasing, still so many good titles out there.
