I sold mine for a ps4 and quickly started looking for a ps3. Finally got a 500gb and brothas! I love that joker so many backlogged and never experienced games.

Multiplats got to my 4kpc but I can still dig old games.

Glad you got one....you should of tried to get the original 60GIG dude! :)

The was truly the best one, I installed a 1Tb drive in mines. and the amount of games I have on there from PS+ is insane and I still to this day haven't finished them all (got about 35+ on there).

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle34d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

And then MK1 killed it again.
