Nearly 20 years later, how do you feel about the PS3?

Excellent device when it runs games that were made specifically for its cell CPU. I wish it had 1GB of ram instead of 500 MB. I feel like RAM for 7th gen games was the biggest bottleneck.

Yeah 7th gen was RAM starved, much the same was as the 8th gen was CPU starved.

Still, it is insanely impressive (to me anyway) that they got games like Metal Gear Solid 5, GTA5, Far Cry 4, Battlefield 4, etc running on less than 500MB of available RAM, and with PS3 even more limited by having a split RAM setup with just 256MB for graphics.

Some late PS3/360 games were really impressive indeed.

I remember The Evil Within looking quite good too. Althought I'm quite sure it ran much better on PS4/XOne, but still...
