I had the old (backwards compatible) PS3 and yes they had a high failure rate, not that Sony acknowledged this like MS did with the 360
It was a fairly epic console though, being my first Sony it was cool being able to play PS2 games, although the fan was f'ing loud, when it kicked in watching a blu-ray you might as well turn the thing off.
I'd personally go for the PS3 but I was never a fan of the PS2, it struggled with games even in 2002. Just another idea, maybe have a look at the PS3 hacking side. AFAIK the slim consoles could emulate PS2 games, they released some: https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/grid/STORE-MSF75508-DISCOVERPS2ONPS3/1
I lost interest in the modding scene even though both my phat and slim PS3 were 'hacked' at some point. From what I remember you can only soft mod up to a certain firmware (3.55?), beyond that you need a hardware solution. |

I have an original 60gb 4 usb port backward compatible PS3.
Was considering having it resoldered and having the hard drive upped to a bigger one as its a bit YLOD at the mo.
It also still has my Wu Tang Clan Killa Beez 'The Swarm' CD trapped inside which would be nice to retrieve.
Also just found this - Wu Tang name generator
I'm 'Midnight Desperado' apparently. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

It's accurate:

AFAIK it was mobo failures (like with the early 360s), you can do a heat reflow as a temporary solution but they're basically f**ked. MS replaced my 360 mobo out of warranty as they did a pals.
Sometimes the console will partially eject the disc when you turn it on and you can retrieve it. Mine ate PES 2009, as it was the last one I remember liking I recently bought another copy from Amazon warehouse, 44p including next day delivery |

I need scart to HDMI, I have 8 consoles wired up with SCART switchers. The SCART to HDMI is to record them. (I can select a second recording output on the Switcher) ____________________ Well, you know what they say. If you want to save the world, you have to push a few old ladies down the stairs.

Thats a SCART adaptor for a Samsung TV, it has nothing to do with getting an RGB SCART signal to appear correctly on a HDMI capture box. ____________________ Well, you know what they say. If you want to save the world, you have to push a few old ladies down the stairs.
