PS3 had the biggest and best library of its generation.

Demon’s Souls and a bronze medal

The end of PS3's life cycle was literally the beginning of the turning point for Sony. It didn't begin with PS4, it started near the mid-end of PS3's life and carried over to PS4. PS3 sucked for most of the first few years, but slowly started kicking 360's ass with exclusive after exclusive.

>slowly started kicking 360's ass
aka ps3 got its ass kicked during its entire period of relevance

It begin here. Shortly after, 360 could no longer compete in AAA's

Attached: Uncharted 2.jpg (600x600, 125K)

You're so full of shit it's not even worth arguing with you. PS3 won the gen everywhere except in burgerland.

60gig backwards compatible PS3 is hands down the greatest console ever made. Nothing else even compares

why do people blame the 360 for paid online when the hueg already had it?

FIVE HUNDRED NINTYNINE US DOLLARS

kek Uncharted alone outgrossed most of Xbox's exclusives.

the huge wasn't the generation leader

because the hueg wasn't all that popular

360 is about widespread acceptance

Attached: ps2.gif (650x366, 2.58M)

A console that probably had the weakest start but a pretty strong finish

demons souls, uncharted 2 + multiplayer

it outsold the 360 in the end though

Wii was the winner of the generation with 360/PS3 jockeying for 2nd place. It was after Nintendo crapped the bed and pulled a Gamecube with the WiiU that the PS4 came to the front in 1st place with the XBone trudgling by at 3rd.

HD "remasters"

proof?

>tfw it still sold more than the fucking gamecube

Test

why do you guys even like the ps3? pretty much all the shit you guys bitch about with the ps4 started on ps3 outside of paid online
this will never piss me off, fucking faggots remove ps2 b/c just so they can resell at full price

most numbers agree that PS3 went over, but it's not reliable sources like NPD, so it can hardly serve as proof (and in the US it didn't go over)

but there's also no proof that the 360 did better

Were you sleeping last generation? Last generation was literally an underdog story. Microsoft fucked Sony up by making all their shit go multiplat, Sony spent more money and time on their inhouse studios, release hit after hit, and they slowly came back to close the gap between 360 and PS3 until finally outselling it in the end.

Not hacking your PS3 Slim so you can run your PS2 games for free.

I still use my slim for PS2 emulation because it runs some games better than PCSX2, though those are rare.

You must have a pretty shitty PC.

MGS4

None of the Ratchet games on PS3 got remastered.
Also Motorstorm was pretty good. Not a console seller but a decent game all the same.

r5 2600 + rx 580 and I can easily emulate at 4k(sometimes even 8k) at stable 60fps. Some games simply don't run well or have graphical glitches on PCSX2.

I'm pretty sure by "better" he wasn't talking about performance but rather all sort of emulator glitches and issues

>chart with no source
????

>still no source

In that case you may as well just mod a PS2.
It'll definitely run better than a PS3 emulating a PS2, and with fewer bugs.

Blu-ray player and Netflix machine.

meh i have a modded ps2, i prefer playing ps2 games on a crt.

>About this chart: It includes cumulative international sales numbers over time (not just U.S. sales like those published in most NPD reports). The numbers are culled from Microsoft and Sony’s official sales releases, mostly annual company press reports summing up the prior year. No, it doesn’t include Nintendo, but frankly, it did it need to—Nintendo is a discussion for another time, anyway.

MGS4 is a movie, Uncharted 1 is even worse.

PS3 had a legendarily horrible first couple of years but by the end it ended up being bretty good

That's too much of a hassle considering I already have two very good options that for the most part plays better than an actual PS2.

Well if you already have the console than good for you.

PCSX2 is "for the most part better than a PS2", but the only advantage a Slim PS3 has is convenience. In all other respects it's worse than a plain old PS2.

But, suit yourself.

honestly this. 360 was so much easier to use in terms of functionality. i remember my ps3 would lock up when i tried to send a message while a game was running

360 fanboys seething that Sony literally had the worst launch a company could ever have and still beat Microsoft kek

This generation Xbone isn't a threat, the Switch is all remasters and PS4 is boring, way worse than last gen

>sony.net/SonyInfo/IR/library/ar/AnnualReport_E.pdf
this doesnt state how much units the ps3 sold

>US
now show global sales

PS2 emulation on the PS3 when it works properly(some games don't) it looks and plays better than an actual PS2 though, higher resolution and all.

Hence

Now this is the power of shit taste

Fun fact, Sony deliberately hints at what they're working on years in advanced God of War was referenced as far back as 2013.

being a piece of shit to emulate

wii u was hd and had free online

That was on PSP

i don't recall there being 2 (TWO) uncharted release parties at time's square.....meanwhile for halo.....

I liked it. What are you going to do about that, faggot?

What's your point?

Yeah but what Wii U games were worth playing that weren't Smash and MK (both of which are on Switch now with superior versions)

Of course it's not a threat. Microsoft literally took a whole generation to release a ps2 game. And then there's the "early access" titles like State of Decay 2. Hell if you want unpolished early access games just get a PC

More like not only demon souls. Can't remember a single other good exclusive when I think of the ps3. Xbox had Lost Odyssey. Both had Dragon's Dogma, Dark Souls, Dead Space 2, Bioshock 2, New Vegas and World at War. Not much else worth playing.

Yes it's upscaled but it still looks better than on an actual PS2.

based. ps3 had no good jrpgs either which is embarrassing. ps1 and ps2 had a shit ton of god tier jrpgs while the ps3 had ni no kuni and those fucking atelier games

The Last of Us the literal game of the generation, or do you remember that coming out on PS4 just because of the remaster?

Still not sure how Xbox tried to be the new japanese console while PS3 shat on everything that made the PS1 and PS2 so good in japan. I have to facepalm when I see all those shmups and jrpgs that were exclusive to the 360.

The Last of Us is utterly terrible and on top of that an incredible waste of resources.

>tools of destruction got a remaster

gotta love the retarded shitposters.

So were all the gears, forza and halo rehashes that made up the bulk of 360's lineup every year.

Boring as hell. If I had to choose one naughty dog AAA from that gen it would be Uncharted 2. Moreover I'd also like to add Alien Isolation to my list above.

I miss LBP days.

What happened to this series?

LBP is the only good game in the pic.

never lived up to the hype. and will forever be in the shadow of the ps2.

>Sony closed Evolution Studios on 22 March 2016 and retain ownership of the MotorStorm intellectual property. In April 2016, Codemasters hired most of the Evolution staff as an additional development team.[1]

360 was a pos.

How does it make you feel that God of War at present can generate more hype than Halo ;)

A lot of PS3 exclusives were later ported. Until a couple years ago for example the Yakuza series was pretty much exclusive to the PS3 with Yakuza 3, 4, 5 and Dead Souls being only available on the PS3. Now 3, 4 and 5 are being remastered on the PS4 so it no longer counts as an exclusive but imo it doesn't change the fact they were exclusive to the PS3 back in the day and were a pretty good reason to own a PS3.

Uncharted 1 has aged fucking terribly. I'm not even agreeing or disagreeing with whether the PS3 has games, but jesus christ is it bad.

stay assblasted snoygro

Overpriced, with no good games other than LBP and Demon's Souls. Only the Wii and Xbox One are worse consoles.

Since 2000*

Not it hasen't, compared to the games that were out at the same time as it? it was a fucking blockbuster.

reminder that if you have a fat/slim ps3 and haven't updated it in like 6 months that you should install rebug

Attached: 1551534709486.png (370x320, 30K)

uh sorry, but gears will always be better than uncharted. the controls in uncharted are god awful

shill me some good games to dl for my ps3

When you hovered over to a game it would play the games ost along with a background. You could also set videos to where you wanted the previews to start playing. PS3 had some of the best features of any console ever, some of which all of the new consoles have failed to replicate.

Uncharted came out the same year as the orange box, bioshock, mass effect and halo 3.
uncharted was fucking garbage then and it's garbage now.

actually you can do it on all firmwares now. Still limited by console model though.

Contra Hard Corps, The Unfinished Swan, Siren Bloodcurse

AHAHAHAHAHA the first Mass Effect, a block buster. It was janky af. Halo 3? nigga really? Uncharted was oscar worthy compared to Halo 3. Halo 3, voice acting....blockbuster, good joke.

LBP is god tier, rest of those are mixed or even outright shit. You could've picked far better choices, like DeSouls or Resistance 1 or 3 instead.

PS3 library honestly is and always was pretty shit

oh cool didn't know that i'm a bit behind on news.

>PS2 released March 4, 2000

It's a shame that the supply of interesting niche games like aquanauts holiday and hakuna matata completely dried out. AA games made the PS2 a treasure for explorers.

I Enjoyed it, better than mgs v, and plus it had the best online for a metal gear game

>OTHERRRRRRRRRRRR >GAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

The Wii actually had an excellent and diverse library and was much better than Xbox and the PS3. The 'lightgun' shooters on it were great.

>ANDREW DOBSON

The ps3 was slow and laggy but at least the ps3 worked and had a logical UI unlike the 360, I doubt you can even find 10,000 360s that still boot up without fucking up.

nah i disagree, everything you need is laid out via the guide menu and it actually worked right. also do you realize the 360 slim are a thing right?

youtube.com/watch?v=BOHqG1nc_tw

The UI was definitely better than the current xbone UI if you're comparing it to that, also nobody owned the slim, all the nerd white 12 year olds and 35 year old black stones had the big fat white model that was busted with panels taken off then the elite and only half the time did they have WiFi and Xbox live.

The 360 was for hoodrats and geeks who couldn't afford a PC is what I'm basically saying.
