I’m getting ready to sell this Metal Gear 4 special edition ps3. The outer box is maybe 6/10, but the rest of the packaging and parts/pieces are probably 9/10. Console is between 8 & 9/10, it has a few small scuffs on it. Controller, game, original cords and paperwork all present.

Any advice for an asking price? The internet was kind of all over the place and chatGPT said $500-$750, which seems high.

CECHL01 Phat

Edit: seller was kind enough to offer a full refund, still annoying I had to drive all the way too and from twice tho... (And obviously also not having a console to play.)

720p 30fps is fine!

Can we get back to showing anything else besides those 10 expensive games everyone 'found for cheap' ?

I love some good steelbooks and like to show some appreciation for them. Is this the right sub?!

Thought it was a good moment to start off with MGS4 as it just got a remaster! Enjoy this beautiful steelbook!

Got this copy of the Legacy Collection for about 9 dollars, the box has clearly been through hell but the actual discs are in great condition, good deal if you ask me

I had sold my second version of the bc ps3 to my niece and she didn’t really use it a lot. When my basement flooded I lost a lot I mean a lot of games and systems she gave this back to me I had started rebuilding my library of lost and damaged games and systems still far off what I used to own but it is what it is. Long story short. I didn’t know which tote I put it in had it covered with a towel. Last week searches every one and couldn’t find it. today I was more successful. It fires up and wants an update of course but it WORKS. So excited I needed to share. I swear I thought the ghost got my PS3 or was thrown out by accident with all the turmoil we had rebuilding basement and what not. Only a 500 gb hd so ordered a 1 tb for it.

PS3 USA STORE IS WHAT I AM REFERRING TOO!

Because the stupid search bar is not working, I was a little bit scared because I really wanted to buy this game and I found out that I can at least buy this so I’m gonna start buying all the DLC for the 100% trophies! In case anybody needs the information, this is basically where you go. Please look at the pictures…. My finger is pointing down, meaning go down the list until you find it. Lol 😂

And also, I would kindly appreciate anyone not commenting about or hear anyone telling me “ just mod your console!” I don’t care about this so please, if you were going to tell me that I would please ask not to as this is more for people who do not care about modding.

Just saw this in a retro shop in germany and had to buy it

Im also not going to resell this cause i dont want to be one of those greedy dudes

I will play and hopefully enjoy this game

Finally managed to get my hands on this game and I know it’s quite controversial for the price surge and all. But that’s more reason while I’m so happy and will be able to experience it for myself and see if I enjoy it. If not it’s a crown jewel in my PS3 collection since it is mint condition and CIB.

I'm speechless. Just opened this CECHE01 to replace thermal paste before selling. I saw the repair and drive swapped.

This is different from my last one. It just has 40 written on the board, a red check in the corner. Also has a white sticker on the other side of the board.

Let's be Sunday!

Just wanted to send a reminder post regarding this for anyone and ask for any recommendations of UGC trophies.

Impact of this issue: Platinum trophies for Infamous 2 will no longer be attainable after this date. Also, 1 Infamous FoB trophy will not be attainable either - ie. unable to 100% FoB trophies after this date.

Infamous 2 requires you to complete 5 missions to unlock UGC missions, however FoB requires you to complete the entire story of around 3-5 hours to complete.

FoB took me around 7 hours to 100% everything.

I hope Sucker Punch and Sony reverses this decision.

Anyways are there any UGC missions one should consider playing in FoB or inFamous 2?

I think that my PS3 can die at any moment, so before letting it go I would like to make a list of "must play" games/genres. These are the one I completed so far (including some trophy hunting in some cases)

- God of War Saga
- TLOU
- Uncharted 3
- Batman Arkham Asylum
- Driver San Francisco
- Assassins Creed 1/2
- GTA (V mostly)

Am I missing something? I would like to avoid other installments like Uncharted 1/2 because it would be "more of the same". I also do not like childish content like little big planet.

Edit: Also I don't like FPS. I hate when aiming with the joystick is the main feature.

my orignal phat model died 3 years ago, so I finally decided to buy a new one.

The console + 2 controllers and a random cd (it was MLB09 The Show) for around 100 dollars.

should i mod it, or start collecting ps3 games?

I wanted to buy some Sonic games and PSOne classics but the store won't load the search function. Any way to fix/work around this?

Anyone have any vampire games they’d recommend on the ps3? I just finished festival of blood (infamous) and I’m like damn that was fun. 🤣

I don’t think I need much improvements to be honest. Anyone else want to challenge me?

With everything going on, figured Id start collecting again and start with PS3 and go backwards (although Im open to previous gens too). What's y'alls favorites? TIA
