      Companies like Microsoft want it to die so they can make more money from their game pass service, so essentially you don’t own your games you rent them and they can be taken away at any point in time (leaked Xbox series X digital edition), but I hold out hope that Sony continues to make consoles with a disc drive or optional disc drive extension because it gives you more options of where you can buy your games and once the digital store close you can still buy disc based games, if they take away discs for consoles then you will only have one option of where to purchase games which is the digital store which has higher prices than disc games.
      Essentially nothing good comes from an all digital future, PC is different because there’s multiple storefronts but consoles should always have a disc drive, if not piracy will happen because if there’s no discs and no digital store front people will pirate the games instead.

      Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo all have digital services. Unfortunately digital purchases makes up over 80% of the market currently. It wouldn't shock me to see completely digital consoles next generation. Perhaps Nintendo holds out longer because they're Nintendo. @@Dano_116

      @Dano_116, Yeah, now they don't want us to even "own" digital copies of video games. Just rent them from subscription services. No thanks, bro.
      Microsoft has had success with Game pass, but it seems to have nuked the sales numbers for their games compared to Sony and Nintendo. Weird strategy if ya ask me.
      As for PC, I miss physical games there. Used to love seeing those big boxes for computer games and you could even buy used copies and resell them. Thanks for taking away pro customer options pc gamers. Enjoy crap like The Day Before...

      another titles that showed low frame rates and stutter in ps3 other than exclusives most games ran at 1080p but had lower textures, anti lansing barely present in ps3 more brown and grey textures and colors than the 360 entirely, and this games us on my shelf next to oblivion on ps3 that runs better in the 360 cause my dsd owns both. Sorry not sorry someone who played both consoles alot cod, battlefield, god of war, halo, gears, resistance, kill zone, in terms of lag, stutter, visuals and optimization ps3 never ran as good as xbox except it good do actual 1080p on cod battlefield etc

    I still play my PS3 and never had a PS4 or PS5. I will have and play that console for ever along with other older consoles. Things important to mention: Motorstorm Pacific Rift and Apocalypse have split screen 4 player multiplayer you can play offline. Other games that use this are Ridge Racer 7, Blur, and of course, Gran Turismo 5. WarHawk is multiplayer only yes, but you can still to this day play split screen OFFLINE. In Unchated 3 you can play the multiplayer mode, again, split screen OFFLINE. Call Of Duty games here, can be played offline with friends by split screen and Black Ops 1 and 2 can be played with bots with various difficulty, World At War is the only one with split screen CAMPAIGN and Modern Warfare 2 has Spec Ops (offline multiplayer based on missions) and Modern Warfare 3 has SURVIVAL (waves of increasly difficult enemies come for us to kill on one life) which you can play... guess what... OFFLINE with multiplayer split screen. This offline multiplayer modes are the win factor for me because they last... FOREVER. 😁

    "When Sony announced the price of the PS3 at $600, most gamers told Sony they were crazy at that price..." Not me. I was week 1 purchaser of the 60GB version. In fact, having built-in PS2 backwards compatibility means I was able to have Final Fantasy 11 installed and running on it as a backup to my Windows XP gaming laptop and one time I was supposed to be chaperoning a wedding inside FF11, my laptop got fried by a glass of spilled milk and I had to log in on my PS3 as a backup.
    At $600, I recognized that I wasn't just buying a game console - I was also buying my first Blu-ray player and stand-alone units were still at the time being sold for over $1000. I knew what I was paying for and even though I DID eventually start having graphics issues with it around 2013-2014 and I backed up all my data and traded it in for a PS3 slim, I don't think my money was wasted. This was my Blu-ray movie player for the better part of a decade and a fantastic gaming console to boot.

    nostalgia usually hits around the 20 year mark. The ps3 came out in dec 2006, so around 2027-2028 is when will probably see a spike in prices for a lot of these games. So if u really want to collect any game at a cheap price, now is the time to do so before they start to climb. Most ps1-ps2 games are already increasing in high prices and the ps3 wont be far behind.

    One game I would recommend if you haven’t heard of it already it’s called I am alive. It is a digital only game, but it is such a good one and it was made by Ubisoft. It’s a story driven game based in post apocalyptic earth where you’re trying to find your daughter. Climbing mechanics with stamina bar and the thing they got me hooked into it was when we have an encounter with some bad guys and you have a gun but you have no bullets but you can point the guns at the bad guys and bluff pretty much saying I’ll shoot you if you don’t come near me even though you don’t have any bullets. I thought that was really innovative and if you haven’t heard of it, I’d recommend you take a look at it. it’s really fun maybe 10 bucks on the digital store I can’t remember.

      TBH I play on a newer TV and it's not a huge deal. I often go back and play old stuff, then hop on the newer stuff on a newer console. I just enjoy gaming. Something like Remember Me is awesome to go back and play, and it's never come to new consoles.

      Great game and what a twist to the ending! Too bad they de-listed the digital version and physical copy went up extremely high in price.
