How many playstation 3's have you had?

[Medza]

Just 1, I've been rather gentle with it and made sure that it never had the chance to overheat or anything like that. Bought it I think 3 years ago and I've not had any problems since, but then I'm a fairly casual console player, I don't really play more than once or twice a week for a couple of hours so there shouldn't be many problems at all.

I had the original fat 60 gig PS3 that died after 3 years of service. It was a sad day. The day after, I was surprised by my wife because she's awesome, she picked up 120GB slim PS3 and a copy of Black OPs; it wasn't even my birthday.

Don't quote me, I think the failure rate for a PS3 is 10%. So that means I'm either unlucky or extremely lucky.

I have only had one PlayStation 3 version which was the PlayStation 3 Slim 250GB. So far it is working flawless but I am only using it as Blu-ray player since I have a gaming PC built.

I actually haven't had a PS3, I got a 360.

Yes, I regret this. I regret it all the time. I'm missing out on awesome games like anything by NIS, Yakuza, Tokyo Jungle and Demon's Souls, to name a few. It's even worse now that BlazBlue: Chronophantasma will apparently screw 360-owning fans of the franchise by being PS3 exclusive...

So will you be grabbing a PS3 now since it's a lot cheaper, or will you be holding out for the PS4?

I've only ever had one PlayStation 3, the one i got as a gift back in 2009. The system itself still runs great. The problem I tend to have is with the controllers. The initial controller I had with the system died after about only 2 years, then another wired controler I had didn't last all that long either. I'm hoping that the PlayStation 4 controller doesn't give me the same
problem.

Since the PS4 has no backwards compability, I am definitely looking forward to picking up a PS3, specially since I have a huge backlog of games thanks to Playstation Plus.

I currently on my second. I am not mad about this because I was one of those kids who bought the big fat one with the most GB (honestly I forget) and that bad boy lasted me about 6 years. It got the YLOD of me and for the amount of time I have played my PS3, I was surprised it lasted that long. It isn't like I took perfect care of it, but hearing my friends complain that their slim PS3 are dying within a year I was proud. My second PS3 is the newest model and it won't be used for much longer, so I do not see myself buying another one.

My first PS3 is still going strong. I treat all my electronics with care all the time. Even though I want to rage so bad, I have to hold it in. I don't keep my PS3 on for more than 6 hours, so overheating isn't an issue for me.

My husband and I have gone through three consoles. The first console stopped working since he always played his soccer games on it (FIFA, I believe) and after that we decided to get a new one instead of fixing it.

A few months after, I decided it wasn't a good idea to have a Playstation since he needs to be responsible. I sold it on eBay and he wasn't too happy about that - haha.

After this, he got another Playstation 3 which I started playing. I found PS Home and thought it was cool I could dress up my avatars like barbies and whatnot. Yeah, it was a lot of fun. Since I was playing too much instead of working, my husband sold it. I wasn't very thrilled about it either. Oh well - we ended getting another one later.

It's like a never ending cycle...

I have only had one luckily.
I haven't had any problems with it so far, however it is only a couple years old so yea it is not like I have had it since they were released.

The same one I have since 2008 or something.
