|Start》》》| PlayStation 3 is the last console that I believe had an interesting development story, and I think it's more impressive considering the last years of the console are documented. It's PS3 a good console? I consider a flawed console at times but overall I still think it was mostly good, the console menu is iconic and playing with it makes me feel nostalgic. I actually have really good memories of playing FarCry3 and 4 for hours after a hard day at the job, and I still have a really good memory of skipping a rainy class day and stay home for play Silent Hill. If you're curious about what were some of the reasons PS3 failed to conquest the market at first, I recommend once again one of these lengthy but interesting documentaries from YouTube. And with that being said, some of my favorite games for the console... From Konami, I truly loved their games for the console and I can recall great games like Castlevania Lords of Shadows, Hard Corps Uprising and Rocket Knight. While it's a controversial game I have always liked Silent Hill Homecoming and I think Downpour deserved more merits. There also some little cool games like Rush'n Attack Ex-Patriot or Frogger Returns. Another of my favorite games are stuff like Sonic Generations or Sonic Unleashed that's actually a game that I have always loved since 2008. And of course other classics , like Bayonetta, Anarchy Reigns, Catherine, Red Dead Redemption, GTA lV and much more. Happy 15th anniversary, Playstation3. Your legacy while had some missteps, it's something's I can respect and remember with a smile. Note: I think is worth mentioning PS3 is somehow a really good PSX machine and if you have your PS3 with a soft mode, it's maybe the ultimate PSX machine out there. |

The only generation of PlayStation I don't have nor have I ever owned. I had an Xbox 360 and Wii that generation. My only experience with it is God of War III Remastered via PS4, which I did enjoy. |

There were good games on it, but it's the least memorable Playstation to me. I really liked PS1 and PS2, but I went with the 360 this generation as I had more interest in what that was doing compared to to PS3. I did get one towards the end of its lifespawn, like the last year or two and even then there weren't many games I was interested in. It was mostly the Uncharted games, MGS4, Infamous, Last of Us, and God of War 3. All good games, but none of which are a particular favorite of mine as I have only gone back to Last of Us when it was put back out PS4, and I want to replay MGS4 someday whenever it can get a dang port. |

I've had many fond memories with the console, however if has not aged well - More so from a hardware perspective. The interface is unbearably slow, the updates a a pain to maintain, and getting authentic Dualshock 3 controllers is near impossible - I bought 2 off eBay and even thought they were official they were cheap s*** from overseas. That said it is the console I have the most games for! A lot of game went dirt cheap and the introduction of Blu-ray discs means buying pre-owned isn't as much of a hassle - it's very rare I would buy PS3 games off eBay with actual scratches. Sadly it is the generation PlayStation lsot it's identity for me - most 3rd party titles the console was known for went multi-platform this gen - Final Fantasy, Metal Gear, Tekken... List goes on. As for the games here are some of the most notable for me: Catherine Dead Space Fallout 3 Final Fantasy XIII Heavy Rain The Last of Us Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom Metal Gear Solid 4 NieR Remember Me Resistance Fall of Man Siren Blood Curse Sonic All-Star Racing TRANSFORMED Uncharted Trilogy |

The PlayStation 3 is my favorite console of all time sake, The Slims and the Super Slims are as good of a quality build as the PlayStation 2 phat. I use mine to watch Star Wars on blu rar, also play my entire PlayStation 1 collection since virtaull every PS1 game is compatible with it except Medal Of Honor, but that don't even work on the PS2 vary well in my experience. I love how I never need to buy any expensive PS1 memory cards since the PS3 stores PS1 data on the hard drive instead of a required external memory card. By stock all PS1 save data can be stored in virtual memory cards on the hard drive and you only need 1 PS3 to hold the entire PS1 library of saved game data. Note not the game itself since the PS1 games require a working CD laser in order to operate on, any PS3 console, but the PS3 Slim and the Super Slims of the PS3 are highly over looked and should be on everyones Wishlist who does not currently own one of these machines. they can play Blu Ray Movies Music CD's as well as play PS3 and PS1 games on them I highly recommed buying a PS3 it even lets you watch Youtube and Netflix and Hulu on it too but now adays you could just buy a smart tv from Walmart or Amazon but back a few years ago smart tvs did not exist |
