Restored Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3) 12GB Gaming Console, Black

I knew going into this purchase that I would need additional space as I am aware of the limitations of a 12 GB system so I was fully prepared. That being said everything about the purchase went well and I ordered a larger hard drive for it as soon as I got it home. It works great now with a TB drive so I am set.

We had our first gen PS3 for over seven years before it finally died, presumably due to the overheating of the solders on the cpu. We wanted to get a PS4, but couldn't find any in stock and don't want to buy first gen anyways until they work any kinks out. Then we looked up regular blu-ray players, but found that any worth buying were nearly the same price as a super slim PS3, so why not get another one!? Pros: As quick, if not faster than our old first Gen. Crazy quiet! Much lighter and thinner than the old versions. Inexpensive, therefore a cheap replacement plan also. Cons: Doesn't play PS2 Games(tested). Disk tray got ghetto. Feels cheaper/chintzy. Only 2 USB ports. If your going to use this for Netflix/Dvd/Bluray and such, GO FOR IT! It's a great system for that. But, if want to play multiple advanced games, you're going to need a hard drive expansion to add to this. I just pulled out the HD from the dead system, and stuck it in the new one.
