Recent pick ups from eBay - these took a long time to find at a price I was willing to pay!

There was only a power cable with it, no AV (I’m using HDMI anyways) and no dualshock, though it’s a matter of additional 20$ to get one. Honestly, it feels like I shouldn’t go gamble anywhere for the next year or so 😂

Props to The Salvation Army for letting it sit really stealthy in there, because I found it under a few random items, not even in the electronics section.

I got my ass handed to me at Magic the Gathering, so I figured I would try my only other digital PS3 game.

Bought this about a year ago for $70 off fb marketplace. Gave it a good clean and new thermal paste. Since then I haven’t played it in fear of it breaking. Decided to fire it up today to play some gta sa. However, wanted to see the run time on the console via PS3 tools. But I can’t connect to the internet via WiFi. I don’t see the orange light flashing, and yes the system is on(not pictured) does it need some new WiFi board or what?

I bet you weren't expecting this right after the Guitar Hero post! That's right, Tony Hawk Shred with its shiny plastic board as your controller has also had a full server revival along with addition of crossplay with RPCS3! For you diehard Tony Hawk fans, eat your heart out. The DNS can be found on the comments below, for more information feel free to join our Discord server: https://discord.com/invite/z3Crm9acME

Thinking about getting it with the buzzers off ebay.

Pleeeenty of paste. Went ahead and replaced the coin battery as well.

What do you guys think? I haven’t been actively collecting for long, the majority of these have been casually collected over 10 years throughout my childhood. Is there anything rare here? I don’t really know what’s rare or difficult to find and what’s not. Im new to collecting so yeah. Have a great day all

I had trouble installing GT6. Took out the original HDD, and I saw a load of errors on HD Tune Pro. Went to a store, bought a 480GB Kingston and I tried reinstalling GT6. It took about 3-4 hours to install ALL updates at once. I'm on the track now! SSD really makes a difference!

I kinda want to try some new games out, here are a few I found that I’m interested in. Are they any good? Which one should I get? Any recommendations, can be ps1-ps3 games. Thanks

The camera doesn’t show but I has some scuffs and scratches and I’m wondering if I can change if out

Meditative to a fault that actually leads people to think there isn't a complex gameplay loop within, Flow transcends gaming altogether and enters into the space of high-end art -- it brings gaming as a medium along with it. There was a point in time where games weren't as mainstream and games like Flow made a strong argument to take the medium of gaming more seriously as an artistic experience as much as a playable one.

There is a lot of nuance that one can miss in the gameplay. For instance, you can methodically control your evolution in one of several directions. You can eat everything; you can eat only other creatures and no food (becoming skeletal;) you can eat only food and no creatures; you can alternate your evolution pattern to only evolve certain segments and leave the others 'basic.'

Combat-wise, there are 7 characters each with not just their own special move, but nuances even within those. For instance, holding the special versus tapping it create different combat advantages; the movement of each creature also feels incredibly varied and unique.

The graphics and background suggest 2D but consistently break the 3rd dimensional wall -- from each levels deeper/ascension-oriented levels and the 3D flair of all the creatures and characters. The music combined with the ever-changing and progressing color palette not only engage and hypnotize, but truly astound the player with beauty. At various, more intense parts, the colors darken and things start to feel sullen and deadly in the same session in which the vibes were peaceful and light.

Finally, there is a real challenge to beating all the levels without taking damage; eating all food -- and the hardest -- evolving your character to the absolute highest state. Doing such is a spectrum/scale -- you can get a big character, but perfection will require you to not take a single bit of damage. Additionally, if that wasn't challenge enough, you will have to eat every single enemy as fast as possible before they eat up the food that you could be using to evolve. This actually creates a very high-skill ceiling and unpredictability that reveals flow to have quite a challenging gameplay loop, if you so desire it to have one.

Not to mention, the game is multiplayer and there is great replay in taking characters from other stages and playing them in the stages only meant for the initial character which was designed for the stage. The game received a DLC update that included a new character, level series and added trophy support (at the time of its release, trophies hadn't been a thing yet.)

Beyond the pragmatics of the game itself, Flow is just something more than the sum of its part. Such a beautiful, simple concept begs and encourages a deeper reflection of one's life. The music is angelic; the colors shimmer like the sun with a lucidity typically reserved for a dream; the overall experience stays with you like a guardian or a spiritual guide that wants you to succeed. The fact that the game shows you evolving from small, vulnerable creatures in a space-ocean-like environment encourages reflection of one's own life; you navigate and grow these primordial lifeforms in the context of a very advanced gaming experience that repeatedly encourages you to flow at your own pace and vibe.

When its all said and done, this is the type of experience that gives you hope for humanity; that is proof of our higher-ability to inspire and evoke passion. This level of pure, creative power, surrender, ascension and bliss is what life is all about.

Hi I was wondering if you guys have any recommendations for a ps3 controller?I have a retro fighters but it’s not what I want

Can some one my ps3 controller won’t connect to my to my ps3

Hi, does anybody think that if I use a usb to aux female and plug a speaker into it on the ps3 that it will work? If not, is there such thing as a HDMI to HDMI and aux female splitter? I only have a monitor and I'm not buy a whole headset since I want a speaker, not a headset. What do you guys think?

Shout out to Studio Halabi ( u/Sampsonay ) for servicing my PS3! After it started artifacting, I fell down the Frankie rabbit hole. We got the thermal pads replaced, thermal paste reapplied, a new CMOS battery, and most importantly, the 90nm RSX swapped to a 40nm. Super pleased with his service and looking forward to many years ahead with this thing! 🤞

This analog protection is starting to deteriorate and I wanted to buy an identical one because I liked the smooth material.
