So were/are all PS3 models basically designed to die after a few years of use?

ok, good thing there are ways to get around the shitty design

I think getting second hand slim is going to be cheaper than replacing blu ray in your fat. If you don't care about not being able to play ps2 games then you should go for some cheap slim or superslim.
And yeah, all electronic devices are designed to die quicker nowdays so you can be a good goy and get new one quicker.

Please fuck my wife

I bought a fat PS3 in 2009 and it still works.

Is weeb taste acceptable in the hood?

>I just threw my old 512GB ssd in it
well mr gucci loafers, we dont all have spare 500gb ssd drive lying about and if i did it would go in my computer, also, since my laser is not reading shit, i really dont see how I am supposed to install games on a hdd (not that the fucker would allow me to do that without some secret nerd code hackedinto it anyway). I just want it to play all the super cheap games I have picked up in the last few months and am willing to invest up to about 50 dollars in total for it (or a more reliable used model) to do that and am asking for advice on which one to go for..

I bought the MGS4 fat 80GB bundle in June 2008 and it ylod'ed in 2010 while playing Yakuza 3. Rather than bother fixing it, I sold it and bought a slim which still works.

Ironically MGS4 is still in my backlog and i haven't touched it yet
