Games are cheap and include notable titles, it has HDMI and so looks decent on modern TVs (unlike the PS2 and Wii), it can play DVDs and Blu-Ray discs, and as the firmware isn’t being updated, you can jailbreak it without playing cat and mouse with Sony.

I'm on my 10th season of MLB The Show 16 and have no intention of slowing down.
Free online gaming folks, we really had it all.
Playing the Batman Arkham collection - lighting and textures are a bit low-fi but still worthy.
Kinda regret selling my PS3 slim
Does it have games, yet?
That is hardly going strong.
PS3 came out 17 years ago. I'm impressed it still has 2 million active users a month personally.
it is really impressive how long both ps2 and 3 lasted. i still have my ps3 so i can play mgs3!
I sold mine recently because of how good RPCS3 has gotten recently. My CPU isn't good enough to run it but will be one day.
If a game is listed as playable on rpcs3 the game is pretty flawless to emulate. But, some games like mgs4 and infamous series are buggy and don't have good performance, so that's when I turn to the actual hardware.
The thing with the PS3 though is most games don't even get good performance on the original hardware. With the speed at which PS3 emulation is improving I've no doubt it will be THE way to play all PS3 games fairly soon.
Yeah, the games the are playable on rpcs3 are the definitive way. Playing it at 4k/60 really makes the games shine in a new way.
