PS3 Recommendations in 2022

[Zackarix]

Recently I got a PS3 to play FF13. Getting a whole console to play just one trilogy is obviously a bit silly even if you manage to snag one for dirt cheap like I did, so what PS3 games would you recommend to a KH and FF that I can't play on PS4?

Any recs for for games available on PS1 and PS2 classics are also appreciated. I've been enjoying Persona 3 FES.

Also, are the KH PS3 collections worth it for the separate trophy lists?

Zack; I wouldn't say that the KH3 ps3 collection is worth it if you got ps4 version. I got the ps3 collections BEFORE the ps4 and at the time it was worth it, but the ps3 IS missing a few cs's on the "movies" that the PS4 has (tho you can view them on youtube). FYI, I'm not getting the ps4 collections until my PS3 dies if that tells you anything tho.

But yeah, I'll be watching this too; My brother got me the Arland Atelier Trilogy which I need to mess with more!

Also I got FF13 myself tho I got the other two on PC since my pc can handle it. Not sure about any other FFish games.

Ever tried Koudelka?

If you want another platinum you could get the PS3 collections of KH. I wouldn't say it's worth it personally. The loading times are way more awful, especially in BBS.

If you are interested, you could play the original Persona 4. Golden is obviously better, but I heard many people prefer the original's difficulty.

I'm content waiting for the Golden port in January. The reason why I got FES is that it has enough unique content from Portable that it's worth getting both.

I keep eyeing Digital Devil Saga and the Raidou Kuzunoha games on PS2 classics, but given that ATLUS has recently realized that people will buy ports even if they don't add a bunch of new content I'm afraid to get them because they seem to be the logical choice for remasters after Nocturne and Persona.

I vouch for the Ratchet and Clank/Sly Cooper/Jak and Daxter series as all classic platforming games. God of War series too if you're down for some disembowelment and boobs.

A lot of remasters on ps3 are not available for other consoles. I would recommend the god of war collections and jak and daxter collections (those ones are available on ps4 but with an ugly emulator format that doesn't have anti aliasing).

Eternal Sonata was a great little JRPG that's stuck on PS3 and 360.

Drakengard 3 and NieR (the Gestalt version where you play as a father) are both stuck on that console generation.

Tales of Xillia 1&2 and Tales of Graces F are also still PS3 only. The Symphonia Collection on PS3 is also the only way to play an HD version of Symphonia 2 if you'd have any interest in that game.

For PS1 classics that still haven't come to another platform yet: Legend of Dragoon, Final Fantasy Tactics, Xenogears, Wild Arms 2, Mega Man Legends, The Misadventures of Tron Bonne, and Mega Man Legends 2. All solid classics still not released past that generation's storefront.
