Rolls Royce of Gaming Consoles Bridges Generational Gaps.

This is likely the Best Console yet, allowing for Flexability in Increasing HDD Size and Memorym Backwards Compatabilty with PS1 and PS2 Games (Where possible); and a host of Features that a Gamer would not be Intrested in such as Blu Ray and DVD Playback with teh added benefit to choose Online or Offline Gaming.

I do not know of anothr Console that permits such Flexability - a real shame that we are not seeing such Flexability either in Game Designs allowing for Stand Alone 2 Player Game Play or Consoles Cateing for Backwards Compatability.

The only let down is the way that we are being herded into Online Gaming for Multiplayer Optionsl but if you have yoru Playstation 1 and 2 Games - you still have the benefit of having Games that play like Games rather than having to follow the "Herd Mentality" of Isolation advanced by Online Only Multiplayer Games today.

The Best buy out there for simple Good Old fashioned Stand Alone Gaming with Flexibility that will last.Read full review

Fairly outdated

Although impressive for the time, this system is outdated by today's standards. The first generation model struggled to play graphicly intensive games without constant frame rate stutter and occasional freezing.
Some games did however perform well, and I did enjoy my time. But overall this was an unsatisfactory experience. Read full review

PS3 60GB

The only model you need for a complete backwards compatible library if you own a PS5 you can now play pretty much everything playstation have to offer.

These particular models are rare now so are the 20GB launch edition Playstation 3's at the current time of writing this review they are currently going for over £150 in most second hand shops come back to this review in a few years and you'll find they more than likely have gone up in price.

The only thing I will say is that it can get dusty quite easy but that's the fun part because this model is easy to clean and it only takes about 10 minutes I highly recommend picking this 60GB or 20GB launch model up while you can as it won't be here forever and make sure you check the serial number ends in 03 because that's how you can tell it's Compatible with all playstation consoles preceding PS4.

The controller has a pretty good battery life on it and I will say that if you have options buy your discs physically for games instead of downloading them as it might take long.Read full review

Excellent refurbished unit.

I was skeptical if this PS3 at first. However after a week of heavy use I can say the individual who refurbished this for resale. Has carried out an excellent job..

This has facilitated me revisiting my gaming back catalogue ps2 & ps1.

Thanks again.Read full review

This one's a keeper.

Already have a PS3 slim but wanted backwards compatibility for PS2 and ps1 games as it upscales them, the PS3 I received is in as new condition with not even a scuff on it, the fan run at full power at first, very loud, cleaned the inside of the machine which had very little dust, it probably ran loud due to a power hungry game, I am now enjoying all my games with fantastic graphics, this one is a keeper.Read full review
