WTB a Ps3
 
Looking for a PS3. Never played the system or any of the games. Anyone have one they're not using and they wanna make a little cash? Let me know.

The PS3 is the worst system ever made. All the potential in the world, but they couldn't make a system that survived more than five years of regular use. Plus, 90% of controllers stop working after a few years. And it cost $600 at launch. Just a shame. I would recommend skipping it because at this point you can't buy a new one, and any used or refurbished one you get will have an unknown lifespan

Is there any ps3 game worth playing that hasn’t been rereleased on ps4?

Some of the Yakuza games.
GTA 4 (If you liked it.)
GTA 5 (Unless you waited for the PS4 version)
Infamous 1 & 2
Killzone 2 & 3
Heavy Rain

Never regretted my PS3 purchase. Unlike my Xbox360 which RROD' more times than I could count, my PS3 yellow lighted once.

Only because my brother overheated the damn thing because he didn't have the common sense to listen to the machine sounding like a jet engine.

Back on topic, pretty sure you can find one at any Gamestop. They're on retro kick these days.

If you wanna call PS3 retro.

Metal Gear Solid 4
Demon's Souls
Ni No Kuni

3D Dot Game Heroes is a pretty decent Zelda expy, great soundtrack
The Atelier games are pretty niche, but I enjoyed the Arland trilogy
LittleBigPlanet maybe

There are a ton of PS3 games I want to play and I dont do digital games at all. I just want physical games. That's why I wouldnt just download them from a PS4

Fallout: New Vegas. With Bethesda looking like they're continuing their downward spiral (I know technically Obsidian made it, but Bethesda let them use their shit technology), it may never get re-released anywhere. Fallout 3 to a lesser extent - the story is a mess, especially with the Broken Steel DLC's retcon to the main story ending, but the other DLC's besides Mothership Zeta are all pretty fun and it has great gunplay and an unforgettable cast of characters.

Don't buy from them. I used to patronize the fuck out of them, but that immediately stopped forever when I got a refurbished PS3 and it only lasted me just a shade over a year before dying. Too bad the same can't be said of GS. There are many others who thought it was no big deal to buy a used or refurbished console from them only to have major issues. Avoid them like the plague.
