Author Topic: PS3 is only 100 bucks at EB games. Worth it? UPDATE: Got it, doesn't work  (Read 4079 times)

I'm thinking of getting a PS3 since it's cyber Monday but I'm wondering is it worth it for 100 bucks? (its the 160 GB model and it's refurbished). I'm a fan of the Ratchet and Clank games and I've never played the uncharted series. Right now I have a PS2, xbox One, 360 and original. And a PC. Am I missing out on anything good for the PS3?

Also if I do get one tell what games to get

Games I plan to get:
The Ratchet and Clank games
Infamous
Resistance 3 (maybe, I heard it's good but I played the second one and it was stuff).

ps3 has no game



but damn this is a good deal go for it

PS3 has a very decent library of good games. I would say yes. The Ps4 doesn't appear to have any planned backwards compatibility for PS3 in the future anyway.

Plus the free online for the PS3 makes me moist. Don't know how many people still play it online though.

Tons of people still play on PS3

What kind of PS3 is it? I know most of the bulky 2006 models can play PS1 and PS2 games along with PS3 games, the slim model can only play PS1 and PS3 games, and the Super Slim is trash from what I've heard. Anyway you should go for it, $100 is a decent price for a PS3 and it has a pretty good library of games.

The normal Slim I believe


Also is there a chance that EB games will give me a broken slim that I can't return since it's refurbished?

Wouldn't they test it before selling it?

Also, if it's on a low firmware, might want to jailbreak it so you can run homebrew, get more abilities to your PS3 like FTP, etc.

If it's even lower, you could install Linux if you cared.

...I doubt it, though.


If you like metal gear solid PS3 has every single title

Alright I ordered it. It'll be here in 10 days. What games should I get?

I believe the native linux support was only for the original models, I think they took it out when the slims came out.

Well it depends, what kind of genres and stuff do you like?

Buy Warhawk, it's cheap and it's really fun imo
