@The_Pixel_King Keep your eye out at Goodwill. I had a used PS3 fat that I hadn't yet gotten around to cleaning (non backward compatible... my BC fat is still error light, no idea what's up) - and I spotted a Slim at Goodwill. $30. I figured, if I'm not running a backward compatible, why not go with the one that's easier to clean and maintain. Cleaned it well, slapped some good thermal paste on it.. There ya go. $30, and maybe $10 in materials. I can't believe it was just sitting there, in the pile, next to crappy less than 1MP cameras and The Clapper.
@themightyant I'd be fine with remasters... except the one we just got is a mess, and... We've had 3 PlayStations running GTA 5, but no GTA 6. They mentioned it once, but really just in passing.
Sure, give RockStar ANOTHER reason to never get around to GTA 6. I didn't get to play GTA 4 when it was new. I recently picked it up for PS3 and will be playing it when I finish completing the trilogy. No, not the money grab "definitive edition", the ones that were on PS4 before this disaster - oven mitt hands and all. (I've completed 3 back in the day, but didn't get to finish VC and SA) You do know the PS3 version hasn't gone anywhere. I think they should port it - not remaster... the remastering didn't go all that well for the definitive trilogy. However, if you want to go bowling again, boot up that PS3 and do it.
I feel like Sony wants me to be happy as a PlayStation owner. Yes, they want my money, but they want me to be smiling about having parted with that money. It's not "Here's some games, bye" - No, they want to make Playstation my gamer home, and so far, it is. I just wish they'd stop forgetting I sometimes have to go out in the world - R.I.P. PS Vita (I still daily carry one!)
