What PS3 games are you currently playing?

I've been playing Drakengard 3, just hit the collecting wall before branch D (very annoying requirement there- if you need to pad out the game add some more accord missions or something!)

 

Out of curiosity- for those who've played it, did you experience any graphical issues? Mine has a tendency to exhibit screen-tearing, incredible framerate drops (like, turns into a slideshow level of drops), camera getting stuck in odd places- that kind of thing. My disc sadly has a couple pinholes in it, so I can't figure out if this is the disc dying, my system needing a clean, or just how the game is. I've love some input!

I’ve been playing King of Fighters 13. What a great game! So far it’s my favorite fighter on the system.

After figuring out how to play Duke Nukem Megaton Edition in 2020, I have been playing this one a lot. This is one of my favorite versions of the game. Highly recommend for $8 but you have to jump through hoops to get it.

I'm playing Kingdom Hearts 2.5HD (Birth By Sleep)

Just played Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection last night. I was in the mood for some Sonic the Hedgehog 1. My kids were telling me to go fast but I told them about stuff you miss when you fly through it.  They had no idea there was more stuff below the surface of level 1.

 

I got to Marble Zone before I had to stop to do stuff. The background reminded me of Altered Beast, so after I was done with the "to do" list I fired that up. I played to the third level boss then died. 

 

I never noticed before the sound quality kinda lacking on this collection.  I kinda yearn for the real deal but I *really* don't wanna go down that rabbit hole again. I'm already loving playing NES and N64 on a tube TV, I don't need more hardware.

 

(Or...do I....?)

I've been playing Doom, Doom II, and Gran Turismo 5. Unfortunately though, recently the controller is going weird when I try to play the Doom games, it's as though it's pressing the buttons itself. So frustrating when the weapons keep switching and firing on their own, and the map randomly comes up on the screen when I don't want it to come up.

I've just been playing Farming Simulator for several months now and nothing else. I've been really enjoying it but I am starting to get tired of it now.

 

Controller is working fine again too, I had to modify the small pad inside.

The ribbon connectors that connect one board to another in the controller could possibly be getting corrosion.  I had that happen to me on at least a couple of controllers.  it's a silly design where the connectors don't plug into anything but are pressed together with just pressure.  I cleaned mine up and replaced the strip of foam(?) that helps put the pressure on and that helped.

I wanted to get back to Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, but for whatever reason I can no longer get the disc to read 😔. I think I was actually pretty close to finishing it a few years ago but put it down and hadn’t picked it up again. I mentioned in another thread that I’m making a concerted effort to give my PS3 more attention, so I moved to Kingdom Hearts (which is working just fine 🤷‍♂️ ).

Ratchet and Clank Future Tools of Destruction is the last thing I played. Still a great game.
