PS3 is my favourite console and the console I grew up with, I have a collection of around 90 games and the heavy hitters you should look out for are Folklore, 3D Dot Game Heroes, Spec Ops The Line and all of the HD Classics and collections like Silent Hill, God of War, Ratchet & Clank, Sly Cooper etc, The Orange Box is a cool collection of games and one of my favourite games ever Portal 2
Cheers Paul, thanks for taking the time to watch my video mate with everything that is going on. Appreciated 👊🏻 I know the black cases aren’t for everyone and I’ve had mixed feedback but I love them!
Great collection mate! My only personal advice is to get a PS3 slim. The reason why is that they're the most durable out of the 3 models released. I've dealt with too many to count and the slim just keeps going most of the time. I've had my personal slim P33 since Batman Arkham City came out and she still works. The other recommendation is to get a collector app, I got one and it's a game changer. Saves so much time. Lastly, if you want horror games, get the Silent Hill games, Siren Blood Curse, Deadly Premonition and F.E.A.R. There the best ones I can think of off the top of my head.
I might get one, a white one would go with my white ps4. The phat ps3 I have has hardly been used even the previous owner. It is immaculate but it’s so big it takes up too much space so the slim is a good idea. I do want to get into horror games but I’m scared lol. Will defo get a silent hill game soon and a Castlevania game.
@@retrosmashtv I'll say the Silent Hill games on the PS3 are not the scariest ones but worth a playthrough. The game that personally terrified me was Alien Isolation. I hate that damn Alien with a passion. 😨 Horrible thing. Also a White PS3 would be cool. The one that I've thought about buying myself, is the Red Slim it looks really nice in person.
Just started collecting Ps3 games and doing the same as you putting heavy hitter games in the black cases great idea. Loving God of war 3 hate games that you need to push buttons on screen at the right time but got on with this just fine after awhile and just completed it 💪
Yeah I’m not a fan of those timing things either. I always forget when the square and circle buttons are lol. The black cases look so good. Had mixed feedback but happy you like them! Thanks for watching Ricky 👊🏻
Very nicee!! I collect ps1-ps4, xbox 360, xbox one, wii, gamecube, 3ds, ds and all gameboy.. ps3 and gameboy are my 2 favourites though.. rn I'm trying to get and play every pokemon game.. I finished pokemon blue so wanted gen 2 but first 2 I've gotten from cex I've had to return as the battery in them have been dead so they haven't saved so now waiting for gold to arrive 3rd times the charm.. coz I'm going for all pokemon games ps3 has been in the back burner but I'm still getting all rockstar games and almost done getting all main Harry potter games.. your ps3 collection is more insane than mine😅 my best ps3 games is Deadpool, I want splatterhouse but pokemon comes first.. eventually I hope I get a better ps3 collection like yours🎉
I’m looking at picking up dead pool but not sure if I want to go for the ps4 version although it is more expensive, decision to make here. I’m not a fan of Pokémon games but I might start Pokémon shield soon on the switch but I don’t know any of the planes Pokémon’s! Splatterhouse I had to get because of the price it has increased to. Thanks for watching mate 👊🏻
@retrosmashtv I got it for Christmas on ps3, apparently ps4 version runs better but honestly I'm not fussed. My first pokemon game was brilliant diamond on the switch and the favourite I've played on switch is pokemon arceus.. and since I've been collecting them I want to do them in order so I completed gen 1 pokemon blue on my gba sp and now I'm trying to get gold or silver from cex.. I've had splatterhouse on my wishlist for ages but it's never come into my cex.. there's alice in madness in my cex but I haven't pulled the trigger because I don't think it's my type of game. Always will watch mate, didn't watch every video to catch up for no reason haha
Yo Chris, so with your ps3 collection..whats your end game? You mentioned previously you want all thrillers, no fillers. Do you have a goal? List of wanted games that you're working through etc. How about other elements of the console...unique controllers, attachments, promo's, magazines and merch? I would consider getting the exclusives for the console too, at least those that haven't been ported to ps4 etc. Plenty to go at, and a worthy console, pretty robust in longevity too. Keep it clean (as best you can). Enjoy the journey :D... That resistance 3 is a reversible cover fyi.
There’s no end goal really. I just want a collection to be proud of. A collection that shows graft I put in at the car boot sales and the heavy hitters I know I’d never spend my own cash on. I’ve no interest in controllers or any of that. I would like a white ps3 though but other than that it’s just building a nice collection of good games I can be proud of collecting. If that makes sense thanks for watching Daz 👊🏻
Nice vid Chris. I think Crysis 2 and Killzone 2 will look gorgeous when you switch them for black cases. I think my favourite games for the PS3 are Puppeteer, Mercenaries 2 and the God Of War games. Resistance Fall Of Man is the only game I've ever really played online. It was so simple Shotguns only in The Bus Yard or Manchester, I used to play that for hours on end every weekend. The Call of Duty games etc were way too complicated for me 😁
That’s a great shout might give them a go. I’ve got enough cases lol. Puppeteer reminds me of like little big planet. Is that right? God of war I’m well into. I can’t believe it took me so long to jump on. Thanks for watching Gary 👊🏻
@@retrosmashtv You're welcome. Puppeteer is not really a platform game like LBP but a kind of action adventure but set as if you are watching a theatre play. It's a great game and it seems to be fairly rare now too
I used to have a great PS3 collection but I had a terrible habit for selling off my games to fund games for the newer consoles when they released so I sold it all but this year started collecting again I have around 70 games some heavy hitters most recently I picked up Tekken 6 and God of war HD collection (1&2)
@@Waynesworldofgaming The worst part is how so many of the games I'm buying back are way way way more expensive than they were when I sold them Yakuza dead souls was around £18 when I sold it.
It’s incredible how in such little time a collection grows, remember as kids you’d be lucky to get a game every month now I’m picking up collections in a day. Madness Most of these came with the ps3 I bought but I do want to get the exclusives. Thanks for watching sir! 👊🏻
My End Game is to Collect at the very least every title that was released in the PAL Region and than maybe expand later down the road for other region exclusive titles(i have a couple already) but the end game is to get the PAL releases first and than go from there. If i Recall their should be about 1100-1200 total and as of time of writing i have about 1/3 of them aka 400 PLUS I already managed to get a few titles that have started to explode in value. The HD collections i got most of em, The PSN Games im on the hunt before they are no longer available at the store. Im also trying to get some of the more expesive stuff and move downward, cause you know if they are already at that price, majority will double or triple within a decade. ( IF possible i try to get em cheaply as i can. I missed out on the PS1 and PS2 era of collecting but il at least make sure i have the entire set of this one while it is still mostly cheap to collect and before they all disappear. GL everyone.
It’s addictive ain’t it. I was only meant to put the heavy hitters in them. But than I put GTA in them, than James Bond and now lost have a black case lol. Thanks for watching Will. I’ve seen a custom Wu Tang Clan ps3 case but would love to see yours if you have an Instagram please link me 👊🏻
Hello mate!! Thanks man been going a bit hard last few months myself, a lot of this is past 6-8 weeks really. If you are on Instagram drop me a message let’s see what you got, and if it’s something I’m looking for. There’s a video dropping later where I show some of my faves from my collection. Make sure you check it out 👊🏻 Thanks for watching mate and have an awesome week 🫡
Great selection of games mate. One wrestling game to look out for is WWE All Stars. Really arcadey and plays more like a one on one fighter than a wrestling sim. And it's pronounced Day Us Ex by the way 😂
Yeah I’ve heard of this one, I want the Bret hart special edition one. Bret hart is my favourite wrestler of all time. So I need to own that Bret hart edition. I’ll get it one day 👊🏻
Can’t lie I did love FIFA Street, on the ps2. It was a game when it came out that was so different and I was playing football back than so loved this. Thanks for watching Dion 👊🏻
That’s cheating lol. I love collecting mate and going on the hunt. It’s a buzz for me. I say it all the time. I’m well happy getting up at 6am walking round a field, going through peoples old crap for a £2 CEX voucher. Like a pig in 💩 thanks for watching Tom 👊🏻
iv got gta 4 but none of the rest haha , im playing ufc 4 at the min no been on the old ps3 for ages series for the win lol , plus i picked up infamous special edition for £2 free delivery off ebay sells in cex for £8 lol i got that asasians creed the day black case for 50p out brittish heart foundation i dont own it so added to the collection got it before the price goes up with u buying all the cex stock lol
I’ve got GTA 4 to get, San Andreas and the GTA4 & Libery City Stories bundle. That’s £48 there in CEX games alone. But I love GTA and San Andrea’s is my favourite one. I do have the trilogy on my ps4 and switch lol
@@retrosmashtv i used to play the og gta on pc with 3dfx graphics back in the day lol , iv got gta 5 coming in bundle which is a steelbook edition so starting to pick up the gta games now lol my fav gta prob vice city has the scarface vibe to it lol

It's a compilation of 5 games from Valve, Half Life 2, Half Life 2 ep.1 and Half Life 2 ep.2, Portal and Team Fortress 2
