I bought GTA V for PS3 last year for $12 CIB. As others have said the upgrade graphics form PS3/PS4/PS5 are good, but the time it takes for a new game to come out buggy and a patch? The VR scene and PS5 streaming? Paying a round table of non gaming community to make decisions for all of us? I feel for the independent studio that gets bought out by large studios and the layoffs are acceptable? Says only the CEO and trickle up effect!
Great video, thanks for sharing. It's interesting to see the hype of game collecting die down after 2020, with the irony being this is probably one of the best times to be investing before game values explode again. I believe they will one day, especially as we're heading towards an all digital future, but that may be quite far off from now.
There are plenty of copies of Asura's Wrath without the manual on ebay (and everywhere else) because only earlier printings included a paper manual, later copies went the digital manual route, but as said on the video, it's not too hard to find a copy with the manual.
Thanks for doing these videos. I would've liked to see you cover any of the Spiderman games that have popped since the No Way Home movie and how the recent Spiderverse didn't really affect them.
what an informative and insightful video. i just recently got a ps3 again. which mean time to start collecting PS3 again. Really appreciated this type video
All games cant be addressed but im surprised Painkiller didnt make the cut. Its one of the more rare and might be the most expensive non special edition title on the console. Great update though.
Man Yakuza Dead Souls is constantly on a yo-yo…. I wonder if RGG will do a remaster like Ishin… Also wish you coulda added College Hoops 2K8 and NCAA Basketball 10 as well. But a really solid list good sir!
Great video as always! I will follow you on IG as well. I wish there were a channel like yours specialized in PAL region games! The PS3 is my biggest collection, it's also the first system I started collecting for while it was still "alive". I'd love to see a follow-up video in which you analyze the trends of rarer games (all above $150-200). Some prices are really insane (Rain, Drakengard 3 CE, etc.)! Now I'm just missing a few very rare (and thus expensive) French versions of games…
I’m surprise in enchanted arms isn’t a more expensive game , I do have that on PS3. I really need to grab a new PS3, since both of mine have quit working.
I have a feeling it might go up in the near-future - the digital Xbox version (which was BC on current-gen Xbox consoles) was just delisted so now the only way to play it is via a physical copy.
So glad I got my copy of Lollipop Chainsaw in advance, legit had no idea that the remaster was gonna be heavily censored, so this makes it more special. Now, to get my CECH-A01 off the ground…
Ive recently been hearing about the game Wet for the ps3 being hard to find, heard it from two different channels this year as well as from a buyer on Whatnot trying to find it. Im not sure what they mean as i can easily find this game and it looks like year over year, according to pricecharting, its come down in price. Still, could be an interesting game to look out for.
Shadows of the Damned and Lollipop Chainsaw dipped cause of the remaster announcements, the God of War stuff went up in price a bit when Ragnarok came out then went straight back down lol
3D dot game here price surprised me. I bought mine years ago off Wal-Mart used games section they had back in the day. Sad about Africa I lost that game in my house fire. I need to get it back..not wanting to spend the price though.
Spider-Man Web of shadows always jumps around when there's a new Spider-Man movie its spikes and then it usually drops.... I have a good majority of these games and I got them for dirt cheap years ago
My favorite is Tekken Tag Tournament 2. It's literally the only game I will never get rid of on PS3. I'm still wondering about Afrika. It's the only game on the list I have never seen anywhere.
That's a surprise. PSVR2 is $400-$450 at the same time. Glad I got one (cheaper games, $25-$50 is "expensive" even if short) as I am done with $70+ bs dlc or battle/season pass. Still, I gotta be in the mood for some games. Another reason I don't want to pay much, especially $60 mario rpg (though play asia asia english is $43 with warioware/wonder), which I doubt has anything new other than cool graphics. Fave ps3 game is captain america super soldier btw 13:10 yay, dynamic camera for hitting enemies and their ragdoll physics lol. I do feel the constant remasters or ps plus premium is devaluing the ps3. And for lollipop censorship, it reminds me of dokapon kingdom or pocky and rocky reshrined. It depends on amount lol so long as no crazy overhaul patch like skullgirls encore to be bastardized, some will live. 8:45 lol how is KOF 13 costing more than modern stuff lol 14 and 15 are on physical so long as you dont got xbox (maybe series but I know one doesnt have even a digital version at least kof xv despite ps4 game physical).
@@SuperNicktendo that's amazing! my friend had the game and he and I would spend hours looking for the gecko that was under the log. I always wanted this game and even back in 2009 it was extremely hard to find. In a couple years ago I got super lucky in a eBay auction and now I can smile every day

Thanks for watching! Please comment on the video what you think about PlayStation 3 prices - it really helps the video grow!
Still shocks me that 3D dot heroes continues to drop which is great cause ive been wanting to get my hands on it for so long now
It's definitely nice to see game prices leveling out finally.
Yeah so many people were saying that prices would only go up
As a ps3 collector I’ve been really happy to see prices start to drop. Great video and data man!
Thanks!
More of these of the PS3 please! If you did videos like this one a month I'd watch ALL of them!

Alice, Madness Returns is one of my favorites! Well worth it, even at $30.
Yeah it's a good time
Thanks for doing these videos. I would've liked to see you cover any of the Spiderman games that have popped since the No Way Home movie and how the recent Spiderverse didn't really affect them.
Yeah that's always the case I wish I could do more games but it does get unruly
I love some of the licensed platformers on ps3. Toy story 3, Rango and incredible hulk are great little hidde gems
what an informative and insightful video. i just recently got a ps3 again. which mean time to start collecting PS3 again. Really appreciated this type video

Will you be making a PS2 video? I would be really interested in another one.
I can make one. Now that I have a new computer they're easier to produce

Yeah if there was more data on pal stuff I'd include a version of that.
fav game at the time woulda been gta5 , lollypop chainsaw was kick ass too!
Gta 5 is a lot of fun
I’m surprise in enchanted arms isn’t a more expensive game , I do have that on PS3. I really need to grab a new PS3, since both of mine have quit working.
Better get on it!
I have a feeling it might go up in the near-future - the digital Xbox version (which was BC on current-gen Xbox consoles) was just delisted so now the only way to play it is via a physical copy.
I have noticed some changes on the market as well. Would be lovely if you could revisit Gamecube one more time
Yeah I think I'll do ps2 then revisit Gamecube
Love these videos!
I've been getting back into Gran Turismo 5 and I have a Sharp Shooter, camera and motion controller coming!
Great vid. Just subbed
So glad I got my copy of Lollipop Chainsaw in advance, legit had no idea that the remaster was gonna be heavily censored, so this makes it more special. Now, to get my CECH-A01 off the ground…
I have it for 360 when it was on clearance.
What I don't understand is why the u.s. version is so much more expensive than the Japanese uncensored version.

Same here with 3D Dot heroes. Got it on clearance for $10 or something
Spider-Man Web of shadows always jumps around when there's a new Spider-Man movie its spikes and then it usually drops.... I have a good majority of these games and I got them for dirt cheap years ago
$50 for Splatterhouse. Last time I looked it was $90 and I was like “nope. I don’t remember it being $90 good”
50 though? Time to go eBay fishing…
🎉🎉🎉
My favorite is Tekken Tag Tournament 2. It's literally the only game I will never get rid of on PS3.
I'm still wondering about Afrika. It's the only game on the list I have never seen anywhere.
Yeah it's hard to find. Came out when the Ps3 wasn't doing so hot and the cover art doesn't really make the game appealing to the masses
Nice Video ! Sub & Big Like ! And love retro games !
Metal Gear solid 4 fav game
Excellent choice
Retronomics drop! Or is it rise!?

8:45 lol how is KOF 13 costing more than modern stuff lol 14 and 15 are on physical so long as you dont got xbox (maybe series but I know one doesnt have even a digital version at least kof xv despite ps4 game physical).
Yeah collector market is all kinds of messed up currently. Hopefully we'll see some more dips
Afrika is the best game
It's one of my favorite. I found it for six bucks forever ago.

PS3? Really? The games are worth nothing. You must be very young.
I'll take that as a compliment lol
😂
