Get a new PS3 while you can folks

Shipping was very fast and well protected so it arrived undamaged. I've owned four PS3s (all died from heavy use) so I wasn't surprised this one looked like the others. Right, the Blu-Ray drive was on top, which was different. I have a PS4 so I originally used an HDMI cable but this caused video and audio issues. After some searching, I found the HDMI cable I had been using with my latest PS3 and plugged it in. This seems to have fixed the video/audio issues. Plays PS and PS2 games downloadable from PSN store. UPDATE: PSN Plus support for PS3 ends this month (March 2018). No more free games etc. Sony will stop releasing the PS3 next year (2019). So if you want a new one, it's better to get it now.

Pros
  • PlayStation 3
Cons
  • Out of fashion
