Basically tell me what version of the ps3 you like the most and why

If I had choose I would like the slim slim, because i think it looks very nice, it looks like it will take up very little space and has a big 500gb hard drive too (great for playstation+ content)

Xbox Series, PS5 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030

Phat, BC is essential. And it looks the sleekest. Also has weird buttons.

Phat. It has BC. =)

Let's do the math!

PS3 Phat = less space than PS3 super slim + PS2 slim.

So really, the PS3 Super Slim isn't as slim as the original Phat. TAKE THAT, logic!

Phat is miles better than the other two. The slim models are downgrades, The Phat has 4 USB ports, multiple memory card readers and can play PS2 games.

The super slim thanks to shape and size.

I miss the glossy surface from the phat though and I don't like the mechanical lid for the Blu-ray slot. A sliding lid looks cheap, almost like an Xbox.
