Is there any reason for my to buy a ps3 in 2015 im getting a tax return soon and dont know what to buy looked into next gen and doesn't seem like a lot of reasons to buy either right now
I bought a ps3 last years tax returns and still play it daily as well as pick up new games I haven't played regularly. I do kind of want to upgrade to ps4 but aside from Bloodbourne, meh. Everyone on here talks shit about fallout 4 and witcher 3 daily so my desire for them isnt too great.

-The entire MGS series on a single machine, most of it in a single case thanks to the Legacy Collection.
-Huge JRPG library.
-PS Classics.
-free online.
IMO, PC+PS3 is still the idort master race. And definitely a better purchase than any of the nextgen consoles at the moment.
>>319913331
Buying any last gen console right now is a good idea if you never had one.
Both 360 and PS3 have massive libraries full of fun stuff to play.

>>319913691
So you are saying go for it? Cause its loooking more and more tempting how does a ps3 look on an hdmi cable?
>>319914110
Depends on the game and your TV.
>>319914274
Low resolution wont bug me its just graininess i cant really do the wii was a nightmare to play for example
>>319914412
The PS3 does support HD so that shouldn't be a problem.
How long have you been out of the console loop?
>>319914528
Ever since my xbox 360 died 4 or so years ago another reason i want to go ps3 actually so i can play its exclusives
If you can get one that's hackable you'll have nearly the entire Sony library pre-Vita at your disposal.
Mediocre at best games. Was a CODbox.
>>319914110
Yes. Go for it.
PS3 was the console yhat standardized the HDMI. Obviously most games will look like shit without one. Most games are only 720p tho.
>>319914978
I have my pc if i want to play COD
>>319913691
This my girl just got me the Legacy Collection. I was testing out mgs 3 on ps3 vs pcsx2. The controls are alot smother and responsive on PS3. Plus all the PS3 only games out.
>>319913331
I'm getting a 4 this month and ps3 during tax returns if that helps any how I missed almost every thing last gen and ps4 seem to have potential
>>319915173
Makes me wish i had more time before work so i could go price one at the nearby gameshop i am getter a larger than average check this time and almost no bills to pay so i could get a ps3 with this check
>>319915103
Why would you want anything on a ps3 then?
Maybe if you're like 15 or something and grew up with it,
You have the online services closing on top of there not being any worthwhile games.
>>319915459
For the exclusives such as ill probably get neir as a starting point and maybe a couple others i have not played that are ps3 only
>>319915459
You're a huge moron. If you were a console CoD fag, you bought Xbox instead. Ps3 is a weeb box.
>>319915173
Perhaps look into a Vita as an alternative. Some PS3 and PS2 games got remastered for that system and you also get remote play for the PS4
>>319915618
They're mediocre at best though. Nothing from that gen is really notable. Unless you like QTE and movie games. Tons of tons of those.
Especially for the games with series. All just meh entries.
>>319915698
No
>>319915980
So what do you suggest i get with my return then? And dont say save it i have plenty of savings
>>319913691
thats uh, not what idort means
>>319916258
Ignore the moron. Get the fucking PS3
>>319916258
I'm just saying the PS3 gets far too much praise for how mediocre it was because it was babies first CoDbox.
The games and hardware are cheap as shit right now so if there's some reason you want it then you want be spending a whole lot. You certainly wont make any money off it either if you decide to sell.
>>319915971
depends on which games vita has but I rather have the ability to play ps2 and 3 games along with imported gundam games and other imports but I'll still consider because I get your point
>>319915980
So all these PS3 only games are OTE and movie games.
3D Dot Game Heroes
Dead Nation
Demon's Souls
Drakengard 3
Fat Princess
Folklore
inFamous 1,2
Journey
LittleBigPlanet 1,2
MotorStorm

Resistance: Fall of Man1,2,3
Siren: Blood Curse
Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time
WarHawk
Starhawk
Twisted Metal
White Knight Chronicles1,2

You have no ideal what you talking about.
>>319914412
most PS3 games are 720p, a few like Wipeout HD are 1080p
>>319916805
>white knight chronicles 1,2
Not sure if joke or real game
I may get one as well.
Any model you guys recommend it if buying used is a good idea?
>>319916805
They certainly are mediocre. And I didn't say all PS3 games are qte and movies, kiddo..
>>319917018
And you're a just a quick google search away from finding out.
>>319917229
Lmao do you not like games or just a fanboy.
>>319917239
Well what do you know its real
>>319917197
The regular Slim variants are arguably the best. The Super Slims are total toys.
only reason to get the old Fat models is if you want to get a native PS2 backwards compatibility.
I got an used 120Gb Slim back in 2012 for 170€. It came with 5 games, two controllers, HDMI, and two Guitar Hero sets.
>>319913691
> idort
>>319917470
I like good games.
Not DLC ridden trash.
>>319917820
I heard you can put hdd hybrid ssd in the fat PS3 and will bosst the loading times for it.
>>319913331
yes. play old good games.
i bought it in 2015 june.
best buy, even after i had 980ti...
>>319917987You got to be trolling now.
>>319913691
I dont think you know what idort means moron
>>319918120
Same boat I have gaming PC, but still like to PS3 sometimes.
>>319918153
Just stop kid please.
I get you grew up with that trash but stop calling it good. It's really not.
Name one platformer from the PS3 that would be top 5 ever? Or at least is rememberable because it was unique or something.
There's nothing. Same with RPGs and basically any genre outside of cancer genres.
>>319913331
>>319918289
i wander ... if i should buy xbox 360 ? is it worth it for halos and gears of war?
or should i wait for xbone to evolve to the point of backwards compatibility..?
>>319918606
I think it already has that or will very soon
>>319914110
grate look. all games in 720p on good tv with right settings are just perfect.
and yes i'm spoiled with AA with Downsampling from 4k
>>319914832
games are like 5-7$ (why bother pirating?)
other games r on PC and dont need PS3 for playing
>>319918592
>>319919067
Dank reaction image.
>>319914832
PS3 games used are pretty fucking cheap now days. I got mgs4 for $4 and motorstrom for 99 cents.
>>319913331
Tax season is in two months. Nice try.
Also next gen hasn't been revealed. Gtfo casual.
>>319917018
It's real. The problem is that the servers were taken down ages ago and the platinum requires online features.
Heck, a large portion of the game/exploits require online play.
>>319916805
>Drakengard 3
Don't listen to this faggot.
>>319913331
I'm planning on getting one soon. I've been checking Ebay constantly and even bidding on some
I had the same reaction about next gen. Only reason to buy an Xbone would be Halo 5 but it's a weak reason.
PS4 is attractive but PS3 obviously has more games out
Only annoying thing is trying to find one for a reasonable price. I'm not going to pay >$200 for a console that's almost 10 years old
