  • PS3 works great even though it was used.
I was nervous and skeptical buying a used PS3, but there were a lot of good reviews, so I trusted them. I got the PS3 quickly and even though it was dirty and scratched up, it runs really well. I got it for a Christmas gift for my husband because he has a bunch of games that are his favorite and can only be played on the PS3. We had a PS3 years ago, but it fried and died. Because this is a meaningful gift I wanted it to look nice, so I had my 19 year old daughter, who loves to do nails, draw, and paint, work her magic on this PS3 for her dad. She detail cleaned it, buffed scratches out, and then she painted, and resined scenes from one of my husband's favorite movies on the sides of the PS3. It covered the flaws and made it personalized for him. I know he's going to love it even more now! ... show more

  • Review from an Xbox fan
I was a little skeptical of purchasing this as I kept hearing that the bulky first edition was better, but I liked that it had a 500GB Hard drive and I bought the PS2 slim way back when which didn't give me any problems. I bought it solely for Kingdom Hearts. I bought it brand new, and it hasn't given me any problems, I only had one issue where it froze on a cut scene, which was odd because I was still able to press the PS button and move around with it, but eventually it let me and I haven't had a repeating problem since. This system also runs very quietly, if I didn't see the green light, I would assume it's shut off; my 360 runs louder than this! There was a day where I played for a couple hours and it was still quiet. The controller is lighter than what I am used too, but after playing for a couple hours I got used to it. I was a little worried about my controller running out of battery, because you have to charge it to your system, but it holds its charge well! I took it to work one day and charged it via PC, it showed no indication that it was charging except some flashing that had eventually stopped, I came home to find out that it had gotten a full charge. While I do like the PS3, I won't be upgrading to PS4, I prefer my Xbox. It's nice to know that I have the option of playing PS3 games again. ... show more

  • Console is great so far; controller not so much..
I got it as a Christmas gift and I wanted one with the most GB, but despite what was said about the PS3 becoming cheaper after the PS4 comes out, that wasn't really the case. The price of this used one was fair and in "good condition" and on the outside it's shown very little wear so I was pleased about that. It also came with the necessary cables: A/V cord, adapter, USB controller charger, but with no manual or the original box. If that matters to you, which it usually does for me, find a seller that states that it comes with all that; but I accepted that it didn't come with these things, as you can view the manual online and look at videos for additional instructions. The controller, however, didn't hold a charge. The seller was even nice enough to send me another, but it didn't work as well. On the defense to the seller, it's hard to test a PS3 controller, unlike XBox 360 which uses an external battery that you can easily replace; the PS3's controller battery is internal with no knowledge of the life of the battery that was pre-owned. I ended up buying a new controller; and the original Sony controllers is still pretty pricey, but worth it in my opinion. The seller once again was very gracious with my issues and reimbursed me for the faulty controller, so that was awesome. I knocked off one star because of the defective controller; but everything else - the console, cords and adapter was good. In conclusion, I've added a PS3 along with my other last-gens (XBox360/Wii) and was able to get it without breaking my friend's bank. I recommend a PS3 for their great library of games and the seller who takes customer satisfaction seriously. ... show more

  • Used: Good condition Playstation 3 purchased from Amazon Warehouse did not work
This is not a review with my thoughts on the 500gb super slim PS3 console as a gaming device. This is a review of my most recent purchase encounter with Amazon. I had a working edition of this model of PS3 for 6 1/2 years before it crashed. I absolutely loved it and it's one of my favorite gaming consoles. That is why I tried to purchase a used one after my original super slim 500 gb that I bought in 2013 finally crashed at the end of 2019. I decided to invest in a used PS3 super slim 500 gb at a fairly low cost. I bought from the Amazon Warehouse, in Used: Good condition. Shipping was very fast, even faster than expected. I was not impressed with the shipping quality. The inflated cushioning inside the box was deflated, leading me to think the console had been jostling around the entire time it was in transit. The console came with all cables and a controller in an original PS3 super slim box which was great. However, the console DID NOT BOOT UP. Ever. This console has the exact issue my old one does. I plugged the device in and saw the expected red light on the power button, indicating it was receiving power. Then, I pressed the power button, the light turned green as it attempted to boot up and then within 1-2 seconds powered off completely. Now there is no red light. The console is little more than an overpriced brick. Per others I've talked to, this issue is often one with the motherboard or the system's power console. If the motherboard, it can be expensive to repair. More than a used PS3. Regardless, I'm very miffed that Amazon sold me a console advertised in good condition and it never once functioned. Does Amazon not have people testing these devices?? It even had a sticker on the side indicating the hard drive had been reformatted and reset to factory settings. How? It doesn't turn on! I started a return immediately. I purchased from the Amazon warehouse with the idea in mind that they, as opposed to a smaller game seller who may have few or mixed reviews, would be more reliable. I was proved wrong. If I could, I would give NO STARS because that's what this purchase deserves. A big, fat nothing, just like that "nothing" Amazon sold me for $150. ... show more
