PSNOT 3.0 - Let's Talk About University of Kentucky, Baby!

This exactly. It doesn't seem laggy to me. I mean I think it takes a little bit to update trophies and boot/close a game sometimes, but it doesn't really seem all that bad. In fact it seems normal and just fine. I'm sure once I PS4 I'll change my tune and when I see the difference, but for now I'm happy in my blissful ignorance.
Like I've said before it's not the end of all things PS3 if you get a PS4 before you finish them all. I'm just fine going back and forth between the two. I mean it's not like I don't know what to expect when I fire my PS3 up.

 
I've got a huge PS3 backlog unfortunately. Much of that is because I bought it so late in the system's life, already had a Vita and PS3 to suck up game time, and then added a PS4 as well. If I were to focus on it I could probably knock out the majority of it this year even though many are huge RPGs. I'm sure I'll take a few years to work through it though.

 
Yeah it helps that I went through and got rid of any physical games I didn't think were necessary and just decided I'd never play a few of the digital ones. Everything that's left is something I really want to play so it's not like it's a chore to fire the ol' ps3 up.
I don't have much physical period on any system. I play and trade physical games pretty quickly and rebuy the few I want to keep digitally. Under $20 I am willing to take a chance on most games digitally. I think all my PS3 back log is digital. And they were dirt cheap $14.99 or less. Most much less. Oh I did buy Far Cry Blood Dragon last week on PS3.

I need to stop doing that. lol.

I'd rather know when the lying bastards are gonna put that shit on the damn Netflix!

 
I think I still have 30+ unplayed PS3 games, several of which are 50+ hour RPGs. I also bought The Evil Within on PS3 because I want to go for the double-plat. I need help.
Only reason I bought Tales from the Borderlands on PS3 too. But it is cheap and a simple and fairly short plat.

 
What surprises me with how slow it feels now is the 360. That thing is dog slow. It's painful firing that thing up now. They made it worse by making it incredibly slow at downloading. I'm positive it wasn't that slow prior to the Xbone.

Its easy to get rid of your PS3 backlog.  Give it to someone else.  Or throw it in the trash.  Either way PS4 all the way baby!

I would imagine it is the typical MS bloat. They keep adding shit you don't need. Doesn't it have the same "Metro interface" as Windows 8.1 or better?

That's why you go to Gamestop buy $20 worth of crap and trade it into Amazon for over $200. Yeah that felt GOOD!

Not a bad idea honestly. If you truly want to live backlog free you gotta draw the line in the sand. I'd probably purge that way (give it to someone) if I could give away my digital PS3 games or trade them in or something.

Even without AC this year we'll still be getting plenty of AC. 

With or without a big game, we’ll still see plenty of Assassin’s Creed this year; Ubisoft will release two sidescrollers in January and February as well as the Michael Fassbender movie on December 21, 2016. Ubisoft also recently registered the website domain “assassinscreedcollection.com,” which preferably refers to a compilation of older games. That could make for a nice stopgap this fall.

I did that with my 360 stuff. Traded the console and any games I had that had any value. Those worth almost nothing trade wise but were still good games I gave away. I might have one game left somewhere maybe. Probably keep my PS3 for a while still though. Not ready to bail on it just yet.

And F-you Bahamut guardian in La Mulana. I wish these bosses had a health meter so I at least knew if I was getting close. If I can't do it in the next 5 tries I guess I'll get the axe upgrade and maybe more health then try again.

I'd like to finish Arkham Origins and maybe Dragon Age before I move on to ps4. I realistically should finish all those $5 titles I bought in various flash sales as well....

There just isn't time to play everything, and I really need to sort it out by playing things I actually enjoy instead of just trying to finish something.

 
I keep telling myself to start something on PS3 but end up just playing something on my PS4.
Which is one of the reasons I don't have a PS4, if I did then I would probably do the same thing and all these backlogged PS3 games would go to waste.

Stealing this from a tweet by Notch. I just like this sign. It says "Caution: Wet Floor" according to google translate:

We should be backlog buddies and start some games together. Then we can exchange tips and stuff! #friendshipisthebestship

I've been thinking of setting up my capture card and streaming my last gen backlog.

I kind of sort of wish (maybe I shouldn't) they would somehow at least bring the PS3(s) PSN games over to the PS4 like Bionic Commando Rearmed.

The sidescrollers are just the other two AC: Chronicles games. Those are pretty short. I need to get back to China but it wasn't very appealing when I started it. Hopefully it gets better.

 
Actually I'd be happy to see some of the AC games ported to PS4 especially if they stripped out the MP component. I have Brotherhood, Revelations, and 3 to play still. I think I've got all three of them on PC but I generally prefer playing on the PS4 so would probably be open to double-dipping.

 
My PS3 backlog:

Crysis 2

Crysis 3

Doom 3

Enslaved Pigsy DLC

Hitman Absolution (might not play)

KH 2.5 HD

MGS Peace Walker

Metal Gear Rising

Ni No Kuni

RE 5 Gold

Tomb Raider Underworld

Digital:

Castlestorm

Chariot

Deathspank Thongs of Virtue

Portal 2

Rain

Rainbow Moon

Rayman 3 HD

That's 18 which is more than I said but I may not play a couple of those digital ones.

 
When you get to lunch and your sandwich that you made sucks...apparently my lovely idea of drizzling some lime juice on my avocado made my bread all soggy :(

My physical PS3 backlog is pretty small ( AC Brotherhood/Revelations, trophy cleanup on Infamous and Uncharted series) but digital is a little more rough. Thankfully I think most of them are on the shorter side.
 
Amplitude tomorrow!

https://twitter.com/AmplitudeGame/status/684104795242795008

I kickstarted it. Have to figure out how I get my copy....

 
I abandoned my spreadsheet tracking all my games awhile ago out of pure laziness, so I have no idea how big my PS3 backlog is.  Having gotten into the (previously) next-gen game a mere 10 months before PS4 certainly didn't help, especially when I tried to play catchup buy buying all the cheap things I could find.  I'd be happy to go back and forth between PS3 & PS4 when I eventually upgrade.  So much of my kids games are on the PS3 though so I'd be in no rush to get rid of it anyway.

 
PS3 Backlog:

Physical:

Binary Domain

Batman: Arkham Origins

Disgaea D2

Tales of Symphonia Cronicles

Ni No Kuni

Just Cause 2

Kingdom Hearts 1.5

Kingdom Hearts 2.5

Resonance of Fate

Dead Space 3

Lightning Returns

Metal Gear Solid Legacy Collection

Digital:

Darksiders

Okami HD

Tokyo Jungle

Metal Gear Rising Revengence

Zone of the Enders HD

Catherine

Bayonetta

Dynasty Warriors Gundam Reborn

Buronout Paradise

Those are without looking at anything I've gotten from PS+. I don't think there's anything on plus that'd I'd have to play before I considered myself done with PS3, but I do want to get around to most of the games I've purchased. I think I'm going to try getting back into Bayonetta after I finish up JC3.

 
You people are all doing it wrong. I probably have hundreds of games in my ps3 backlog that I tell myself I still want to play someday.
 
Going just from my rather out-of-date spreadsheet I still have 40 physical PS3 games backlogged. I'd guess around 10 more have been added to that since the last time I updated it, too, and of course there's tons more digitally.

 
Don't think I've ever mentioned it, but I'm a Vikings fan, and I was really torn last night. Maybe would've rather played Washington on the road, but hoping they learned from the first meeting and can take care of the Seahawks. Hopefully Marshawn comes back and kinda disrupts whatever they have going on the last few weeks.
I know the first meeting between the two teams will be brought up often where the Hawks took you behind the woodshed and beat you mercilessly, but as you know you had 4 top defensive guys not suit up or get knocked out during the game. You especially missed Barr and Josheph. I suppose you could say the Hawks were without Lynch and Graham too. It will be a great game. Anxious to see if they can stop Peterson again.

And what the hell, 6 degrees at gametime? Not liking that. You can get airfair and a playoff ticket to the game for 300 dollars. I'm surprised the tickets are so cheap for such a small stadium and it being a playoff hungry city. But the weather has to be why tickets are so cheap.
 
Not going to post a list because I have at least over a 100 ps3 games to play.  Definitely won't even come close to finishing it because fuck it.  

Hopefully I can start RDR tonight though.

Definitely play Ni No Kuni, the Kingdom Hearts games, Tales of Symphonia and Resonance of Fate. Dead Space 3 and Darksiders are worth playing as well.

People here like to pretend they don't mind the cold, but they don't wanna sit in it for three damn hours in a college stadium, especially after what y'all did to them in that same stadium a month ago.

But if you do come to town for the game let me know and we can maybe grab a beer.

 
Definitely play Ni No Kuni, the Kingdom Hearts games, Tales of Symphonia and Resonance of Fate. Dead Space 3 and Darksiders are worth playing as well.
Yeah, most of those are on my definite to play list. Probably going to skip Dead Space 3 though, I put a couple hours into it with a friend and I just wasn't all that interested. That, Arkham Origins, and Lightning Returns are on my probable skip list.
