Playstation increased their prices by $100? I bought a PS3 with 23 games for the same amount. - Divisions by zero

I bought an unmodded PS3 super slim model and all the games pictured below for about $100. I haven’t been this excited about gaming in years. I never had a ps3. It was one of the few consoles I didn’t own since all the way back to the nes. First thing I did was mod it by putting hen on it so I could use my usb headset while playing since I do not have speakers connected to my monitor. Now, I am playing the uncharted series for the first time. Out of all the games there, the only ones I have played are Skyrim, GTAV, and the last of us. I played a bit of the batman games, but not really too much of it so I consider it unplayed. I can get more games where I live for about $6-$12. I think the PS3 is going to be my new gaming console for a while. If you have a modded ps3, what hen compatible homebrew apps do you recommend? I do not think I will do any piracy since the games here are so cheap, but I am thinking of copying the games to an ssd and running them over a network (I think that can be done with HEN). I have a small ssd which could hold a few games at a time and I think that will be better so I do not put too much wear on the optical drive. Sorry, for the long post. I am just really excited about this. I have always had the opinion that gaming started going downhill in this generation. Oh, also, what other games do you recommend I pick up? I already have fallout 3, new vegas, god of war, and the injustice games. I have a steamdeck, but since games are so cheap, I want to build out a ps3 collection.

We are actually in the golden age of gaming right now. We can get tons of amazing consoles for almost nothing, there’s easily attainable mods, and the consoles havent yet gotten old enough that they’re all broken.

Not to mention FPGAs, and emulation in general. You can play every console up to ps3 on a decent $500 or so PC if you wanted.

Enjoy it while you can!

With RetroArch you can literally get them for nothing. It’s so cool.
Shhh, those are just for backups
