I know its a bit late, but i never had a ps2, and after that skipped on 3 untill few days ago when i got an used ps3 with plenty of games.
I love how much MGS3 is over the top, with Ocelot meowing and such, but man do i miss crouch sneaking and over the shoulder aiming from MGS4
Used PS3 is really a great system right now, most of them can be soft modded to play ps1-3 games, and you can install any size sata drive you want! I have a ps2 but the upscaling isn’t as good as having a system that has hdmi on it and upscales itself.
Its getting its share of arcade roms, some snes titles i absolutely always want to play.
