PS3 is one of the few systems I have ever owned or really ever played.

I want to get one for some ps3 exclusives, but I would like to be able to run home brew software on it.

I know the original fat model is the best one, but I’ll skip that as they are really pricey.

Can someone give advice on whether I should get slim or super slim or anything else to look out for when making the purchase?

    Not having CFW isn’t the end of the world. It’s a slight inconvenience having to press the button at boot and maybe sometimes randomly a game not launching.

    Also, later super slims are using more modern chips and therefore are much quieter and nicer to use.

    Lastly, currently there is a modchip being developed for a qCFW (quasi-CFW) which will allow for basically 99% CFW capabilities on later models anyway, so there is that going for it too.

    Super slims are a hidden gem imo
