Why come she aged so much worse than PS2?
Do you mean better? Its reputation only improved from launch, and if we're being honest, the PS5 is worse than it.
>>746025929you only started playing the PlayStation 3 after 2011 and it shows
Because there were no good games and it was a bad system.
>>746025601>shit library>over pricedit's a mystery
>>746025601There was the fact that most of the new franchises were not as good as the older ones, and the older franchises got worse.Ratchet and clank got worseMetal gear solid got worseSly cooper got worseKillzone got better before becoming irrelevant.Final fantasy got way fucking worseLittle big planet and infamous were good, but they lacked staying power in the industry.
>>746025601The 360 dominated. PS3 was a weeb console and still is to this day
>>746025601PS3 beat 360 if you're an actual gamer. Microslop cultists can't comprehend that Halo and Gears of War are dogshit.
>>746025601I'm in the minority that thinks the super slim is the only version of the PS3 that still looks good in a living room like it's not demanding your attention. I still use mine as a bluray player but I can't go back and play the games anymore ever since getting used to keyboard and mouse on PC. There's literally only one game I keep installed on it and it's Ico from the HD collection. It's still a hell of a lot more relevant than a 360, I can picture people in the first world still using their PS3's for niche purposes, nobody is using a 360 in 2026 unless they're third world and it's either playing 360 or chucking mud frisbees for fun.
>>746025601It was the start of most current AAA trends except the games looked and ran like shit. PS2 was an era of its own.
>>746026601>Dragon's Crown>GoW3>Atelier>SoTC remasterNah, it mogged every other console of that generation since it had the best games that they didn't
>>746025601>>746026601>>746027070>>746027595PS2 aged like shit, especially playing the games on an actual PS2. Even most of the highly praised games from this era are just not good
I have one like the bottom thats modded and everything and I wanted to play games I missed but I dont actually like metal gear solid games so it just sits in my closet
>>746028219bait this bad should be a bannable offense
>>746025601This generation dragged on too long due to the recession, and they pushed it too hard. Games ran at potato resolutions and godawful framerates to support the amount of shit they were stuffing into them.
>>746028219they're so shit i replay them constantly while I don't touch ps3 games
>>746028219Hell no, PS2 is probably the best console you can have besides a softmodded Wii. Playing on console and a CRT is bliss.
>>746025601PS3(and Xbox 360) largely could not even hope to target an actual HD resolution(1080p), so they largely targeted the cope resolution 720p, but even this they could not run well, and in the case of the PS3 it often had to cope even further beyond at sub-720p resolutions. The hardware was woefully underqualified for the targets set by marketing in that generation. By comparison, the PS2 ran many games at 480p60, the maximum possible on standard TVs of its time.
>>746029886>By comparison, the PS2 ran many games at 480p60,Lol no, the vast majority of PS2 games ran at 480i, and most games certainly did not run at 60fps lol, even the games that targeted 60fps usually ran at more like 45-50fps
>Games ran at 720p 25fps without v-sync because MUH GRAPHIX>Singleplayer games suffered because every single studio wanted to chase the dudebro halo/cod audience.>Big jap studios made mostly garbage except from soft.>Brown and bloomTotal garbage, at least the next gen jap studios actually got their shit together (mostly)
the big issue for me is the controller. it works great AT FIRST, but it degrades over time a lot, both the sticks and the triggers.what's a good third party controller for it i could get?
my ps3 ate my bluray last time i tried to use it and i had to manually eject ithow do I fix it
>>746025601>why did the no games console that was being called the no games console when it was current age worse than the objective peak of videogames
