I have a 1st Gen. PS3. It plays PS1 and PS2 games flawlessly. It's really just a great system. I love that I've been able to keep all of my games for PS1 and PS2 without the hassle of multiple systems. For the amount of space you could save, as a serious collector and enthusiast, I would definitely recommend picking up a 1st Gen. PS3.

I really like the laid back, chill, and positive tone of your videos. It's relaxing and fun.

I really appreciate you putting the Games Shown at the top. I simply copy, then pasted the games I wanted into the PSN store (which was opened in the next tab of my computer) and searched that way. I placed the games into my Cart from my computer, bought them, and then sent the games to my PS3 Queue. Very simple, yet useful. Thanks!

I started playing it years ago, and then I broke my sony PS3 controller and replaced it with a $20 off brand controller, so I couldn't finish the game (because there is apparently no way to absorb the powers of the enemies without the motion control of the sony controllers). So, for a long time, it was sitting on a shelf. I recently picked up a used sony controller, and have been playing again! Can't wait to finish it! The art direction is outstanding, I just wish they had included a control option that didn't require a first party controller to utilize one of the most important gameplay mechanics...

Star Ocean: Till the End of Time (one of 12 games I still own for the PS2 platform) locks up and crashes regularly, as well as several other less mainstream titles I had before selling them off. It's also worth mentioning that the PlayStation 3 plays games in the resolution they were originally displayed in, with only minor sharpening/upscaling if played with an HDMI cable and actually look WORSE. It's better to play them with the RCA cable in SD.

Just to make sure everyone knows, I run across people all the time that don't know this. But MJR said it there, the 20 and 60 GB consoles play PS2 games.

Yes, the original 20 and 60 GB models had the actual Emotion Engine/ Graphics Synthesizer built into them. As such, you had the best PS playback possible. The 80 GB model that followed it scrapped the Emotion Engine (Sony was able to emulate it with software), but kept the Graphic Synthesizer chip. To cut costs and to be able to lower the price of the PS3, Sony eventually removed the GS chip as well. The PS3's Nvidia chip was unable to emulate the graphic routines of the GS, so PS2 compatibility was lost as a result.

Upscales the PS2 games to HD. Depending on your TV, this makes some games look amazing. Thanks for all your cool videos.

I bought a fat original PS3 refurbished for $100 on amazon and it came with a 40gb hdd. The first thing I did when it got here was put in a 2.5 inch form factor, 5400 rpm, 250 gb laptop drive I found in the cushions of my couch and it was seriously the easiest HDD install I've ever done. When the PS3 detects that you've installed a new compatible HDD, it will offer to format it in FAT32 which is its required format to operate. Once that process is completed, you're ready to play. Even if you were to buy a refurbed HDD with the correct requirements to replace the wimpy 40gb clunker the amazon refurbed PS3 comes with, that's still only an additional $40 or so I think in the end if you're looking for a backwards compatible PS3 right now is the time to get on that shit, especially with gamestop's online store selling TONS of games for under 5 bucks and even a bunch at 99 cents, I shit you not. This investment is freaking MANDATORY if you have a Vita, and likewise if you have a PS3 then you need to get the Vita to go with it. The cross functionality has changed my life. It's just so freakin beautiful man. Being able to play Guacamelee on my 60" was worth the cost just by itself, not to mention playing Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection on the Vita. Heaven, if it actually existed, would be something like this. MY ONLY COMPLAINT - it's played every PS1 I've thrown at it (mmmmm R-Types...), but has failed about 30% of the PS2 titles I've tried including my beloved Taito Legends. So there is a judgment call to be made as to whether or not you'll be pulling out the PS2 still all of the time and would instead be better off buying a PS3 slim and just keeping both around and set up. Personally, there is just so much goodness in the fat PS3 and what I can get working that the loss of a few PS2 classics in normal rotation isn't that big of a deal, and if every six weeks or so I have to break out the PS2 to play whatever random PS2 decided not to work that weekend then so be it. One more word: prices for used systems on amazon fluctuate WILDLY from week to week so if it's above what you feel comfortable paying for it, just wait and see if it drops. If it gets somewhere comfortable, and you buy it only to see it drop another 20 or 30 bucks the next week, just go ahead and return the first one your ordered to get the new cheaper one. I know that my $100 purchase wasn't a fluke, but it was a good grab. If you just go any old day you can find PS3s used and refurbed for on average $120-$130. If only they'd made more shooters for it then it would be the most perfect gaming machine ever. Good hunting.

@magnus8306

This is something I've been thinking about investing in. To be honest the only reason I bought another PS3(I sold my old 120 Slim a few years ago)is because I collect blu-rays and I desperately wanted to delve into The Last of Us. Which in my opinion, is easily one of, if not the best, game that has come out for the PS3 so far. Now, I know how intensely fierce some people can get with the loyalty to their system; I personally have always used a Playstation, that is what I grew up with along with NES, Supernintendo, and N64 but I think what is worth mentioning for those equal opportunity gamers, is that an Xbox 360 can do the same as the backwards compatible early model PS3s at least for the sixth generation games. That being said, I mean in the sense that the HD can still be upgraded and a vast majority of the titles available on PS2 were also released for Xbox /Xbox 360. But that isn't to say each system has their own unique stand alone titles that could sway a decision. I think what really makes a difference though is if you have a nostalgia for the early fifth gen games because let's face it, if you grew up with a ps1 you wouldn't pass up a lazy sunday with Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, or Lara Croft. At least for the more nostalgic of us out there :p

Hey Metal Jesus! just wanted to send a big thank you for all the hidden gem videos. The other day, I was on the greyhound and happened to stop in a little town, in the middle of nowhere, that had a little game store right across the street from the greyhound station. While waiting on my bus, I peeked in and saw Folklore for $5! I had just heard of the game in your hidden gems video so i grabbed it. on the bus, i looked on my phone and went to amazon to see that game can go for as much as $75! Wouldn't have had any idea this game even exists and im playing the crap out of it right now. anyway, im just a fan wanting to say thanks. keep those hidden gem videos coming!

I bought the backwards compatable phat 60 gig (I think) PS3 the Christmas it came out. It's been chugging along but about 2 years ago it started having heat issues. Supposedly this isn't a rare issue...quite a few people have it. I took my PS3 apart, cleaned it and blew it out as best as I could but it still heats up way to hot. I no longer play on it because I don't look forward to buying a new one in case it overheats. As to how it plays PS1 and PS2 games...somewhat ok...I can't really think of any downsides.

I had that problem also, I had an 80gb model. I applied some new thermal paste and it solved the overheating problem.

Brian Smith Really? The heat drop was noticable? I don't really have a "loud" issue just the heat issue... Was it any kind of thermal paste or a special kind and how much did it cost?

@briansmsk8er1

Pretty much any kind will do, they put really poor thermal paste on there from what I hear, I bought a pack of two for $20 at Radio Shack, they sell them individually as well so about 10 for it.

Brian Smith How much do you think it would cost to have someone do it for me? I'm really not comfortable with performing these kinds of procedures myself.

Good videos. Thank MJ. Planning to buy PS3 in a few months, I could use your videos for references

After watching this i immediately hunted down 3D Dot Game Heroes and Heavenly Sword and i couldn't be happier! Thanks Metal Jesus!

It`s better to play the PS2 games on the original console, the reason is that the PS3 outputs HDMI so the PS2 games does not look good on the system. Play with the original PS2 (slim or fatty) and use a component cable for a 480p output. The games look really good with a component cable for the games that supports it. The other positive thing is that you can easily mod the PS2 to play every region. I know the US and Jap version of the 60GB featured the Emotion engine, on the European version they released a PS2 emulator for the console and removed the hardware. There is also plenty of games that had some problems running on the PS3 hardware. Anyways, play PS2 games on the orginal system for the best experience.

I really think it's a matter of taste. Personally, I much prefer the way the PS2 games look when played on the PS3. (I'm assuming you're not talking about HD Remasters and such). The PS3 has a smoothing filter that does a pretty good job of upscaling and anti-aliasing the pixelation in PS2 games, making them look quite smooth, whereas playing them on the original PS2, the pixelation is quite a bit more evident. Again, if you prefer the way that looks, that's fine, but there's no clear answer to which looks better, as it's really a matter of taste. My original PS3 broke down, so the one I have now isn't backwards compatible, which means I have to play my PS2 games on my PS2, but when I had the classic PS3, I preferred to play my PS2 games on my it 100% of the time.

personally I like to experience the games the way we all experienced it in that era. which is why I only play on an old CRT monitor. If you buy one of the newest crt's from the early 2k's, the picture is so crisp and perfect. especially if that tv has component cables and allows progressive. waaaay better than playing on a HDTV imo

Henry Reddekopp Well, to each his own. But even if I wanted to do what you did, I really don't have enough room at my house or the excess money to buy a whole new monitor just for my PS2 games, which I don't play that many of anyway, since most of my favorites got HD remasters.

Biohazard EXTREME yeah no point if you dont use it much. i was mainly a pc gamer when the ps2/xbox generation was happening, so im just now getting into those consoles. thats mainly why im going for the full original experience. personally i dont have the space either XD, but i cleared the top of my dresser at the end of my bed and plopped down a 27" crt on it :) so my bed is where i do my retro gaming lol. but i have a feeling game developers took advantage of the fact that crt monitors were a tad blurry. like a poor man's antialiasing. to me i just feel im not viewing the content as it was intended with a digital display. but thats just my opinion :)

Biohazard EXTREME Just to make sure, you do have component cables for the PS2 and are checking for a progressive scan option by holding cross and triangle as the game boots up right? Original PS3s clean up PS2 games to a serviceable degree, but an actual PS2 with those things are the best option. If there's still pixelation, then it's more to do with the game itself.

Any PS3 can play PS1 games, but only the 20, 60, and some 80GB models play PS2 games, which is dumb, because you can pop in a DVD movie and watch it on any PS3, so why not a game printed on a DVD? I feel like it's just to drive the sales of PS2 games in the PlayStation Store... plenty of people have hacked disc-based consoles and given them the ability to play game discs from other consoles, so why couldn't Sony just release a PS2 emulator to download on PS3? I'd even pay for it. The PS1 functionality works well. You can create virtual memory cards and save games to your hard drive and even transfer files to a physical memory card with an available memory card slot to USB adapter. In the options, you can "upscale" or "smooth" the PS1 games out, but I don't notice a huge difference... of course you can also adjust the aspect ratio, but why stretch a 4:3 game out to 16:9? It would look like butts. I use a PS2 for PS1 games more often, but it's convenient for when I want to play a PS1 game on the bigger TV

I wouldn't be surprised if they charged a good 20-30 bucks for the emulator, in which case, I'd just sooner buy another ps2 lol. The last 2 ps2's I bought we 10 dollars and 5 dollars. These things are a dime a dozen. Unfortunately the games I want to play aren't and are also not on the VC. Rule of Rose would have been a nice one to get for cheaper and play out of my ps3.

It is yes, It was a survival horror game produced by atlus. The bulk of it's controvery had to do with sexual acts involving children, but honeslty, if we can make movies with content like this (A Serbian Film, The Woodsman, Happiness etc) we should be able to make games like this as well. But like all early-ish atlus titles it's sky rocketed in value. It ran me over 100 bucks just to get my copy. Would have loved a cheaper alternative.

Tarkhun Fora yeah, just did a quick check - it was banned here in UK after European parliament kicked off about it (and Australia too). Bizarrely, PEGI (the UK equivalent of ESRB) stated publicly that the aligations against the game were false. Some UK review copies do exist tho - I saw one once about 8 years ago. I failed to buy it...it was priced at £2, roughly $4. Oops!

Because Sony eventually started doing PS2 Classics and figured they could get more money out of people doing those instead of giving people native options or emulators on their PS3s for PS2 games.

Happy to see that you included Folklore, Heavenly Sword and Puppeteer, those are definitely to pick up for a PS3 owner since they are exclusives ;) I have to do a PS3 Collection video sometimes soon, there are so many good PS3 exclusives to be discovered

Thank u so much for the suggestions! I enjoyed a lot of games because of you

any disgaea game is amazing if you don't value your social life at all. lol

Get it now. It's super cheap. Probably about 10 bucks or so. It was one of the first games I got for my ps3, but I was kind of expecting it to be something else and was a little disappointed to be honest. But that's my own fault. I was looking for some sort of RPG with horror elements. What I got was... Something else haha. Hard to explain folklore.

Thank you for this. The video itself is a gem, exactly what I was looking for!

Just watched this video in the last week and added a couple to my wishlist. Found Heavenly Sword at a retro toy store that I had been meaning to go back to since they recently expanded. Didn’t expect to find any on my wishlist so quickly.

I've already owned Resonance of Fate, Puppeteer, and 3D Dot Game Heroes, so I'm glad they got attention in this video

Thank you so much mate - just hooked meself to RPCS3 and a bunch of PS3 games I've ever wanted to try !

Love the hidden gems videos you have, and as usual thees two for ps3 are great. Though through the videos i have notised that you and me have a really similar taste in games as i have not been able to get a hold of all the retro stuff. I sit with a pen and notebook when watching the hidden gem vids you have to note down what to look for but with the 360 and ps3 i wound up having almost all the games you mentioned. As always keep up the really good work Jason and il keep coming back for more. :) Hillbilly Gamer out!

I've always been a Microsoft/xbox gamer, so these hidden gem videos are really helping me as I dip my toes into the world of the PS3 and PSP

Thank you very much for showing me Folklore :3 Btw Deadly Premonition is one of my alltime favourites ^^

Super nice!!! Lot of them I remembered I still have to get them. What about The Eye of Judgment for the next video? Awesome card game, but because of the PS Eye and extra cards it flew under the radar a lot! Remember the awesome presentation with the Duckie card :D. Got a complete set here with all 3 sets

Hi Metal Jesus! Fan from Canada here. Been watching your vids for about a year and like the commentary and special insight you give out. Gotta ask: are you a fan of open-world games? I myself enjoy Farcry 3, Just Cause 2 and the Batman Arkham series a lot. Have you done a list of your favourite open world games? We fans would love to see it! Thanks! Keep on rocking in the Free world.

These videos are perfect. I never had ps3 I had 360 but now I have have one and it’s a joy to collect for right now

Great video again MJR ;) Thanks..

Just got a PS3 and over 50 games, many sports but many I’ve wondered about and haven’t tried yet. Nice to see a couple on your list. Brutal Legend and Heavenly Sword so far...

Authentic quality content and blood pumping surprises. This is why I'm only subscribed to THIS gaming channel.

I've been wondering about Folklore for a while. Looks interesting! I'll have to check it out!

Awesome Job Metal Jesus!

I bought the 60gb backwards compatible PS3 off Ebay 6 years ago, I love it! I've never had any problems with it, playing PS1 and PS2 games works great and it gives you the option to smooth the graphics which is nice. My only complaint is how loud the fan gets sometimes but hey it's obviously doing it's job, I've put probably thousands of hours on this PS3 and I bought it used. I switched out the 60gb HD for a 500gb and It is now the Ultimate PS3 in my opinion

Thank you for reviewing eternal sonata. I would have never known ps3 version has 2 extra missions compared to the 360 version. Great video.

3D Dot Game Heroes looks very fun I'll definitely be on the lookout for a copy

About a year ago I sent you a direct message to try to get you on . Not sure if that is what got you to play it or a mixture of many requests. Anyway I'm glad to see it in one of your videos especially that I never recommended a game ever to any youtuber. On top of everything I'm really glad you liked the game, and just maybe as much as I enjoyed it as well. Thanks for listening.
