PS3 bargains on eBay

I am a casual gamer. Played video games back in the early 80's (Atari console) and mid to late 90's (Doom, Duke Nuke'm). I also bought a Wii a few years ago, mainly for my daughters. So, I'd been thinking about playing more and was considering an XBox, PlayStation or the new Wii U. Well, latest gen consoles are too expensive for a casual gamer like me, so looked to get an XBox 360 or PS3 and decided on the later. I found a good deal on a used console on eBay (PS3 Super Slim with 250GB hard drive) and pulled the trigger. Also got a bunch of used games here on eBay as well (Destiny, Journey, GTA IV, Gran Turismo 6, and others). Let me say this, these video games are just awesome when compared to the old stuff and the Wii. The graphics on the PS3 are fantastic and the speed of the console is quite good: for the graphics it's processing, there isn't any lag on the TV screen. It's also quite convenient to have the ability to stream video (Netflix and Amazon Prime) on the PS3 and to be able to play DVD/Bluray discs. For 1/3 of the cost of a PS4, I really think the PS3 is an excellent choice for those seeking to play awesome games at a fraction of the cost of a next gen console.Read full review
