About this product

Product Information

The PS3 isn't just a videogame platform it's also getting an all-in-one home entertainment system. Take the console online and stream video from Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Instant Video. Thanks to its integrated Blu-Ray player, the PS3 console will play your entire catalog of high definition movies and TV shows, along with your DVDs and CDS. The PS3 gives you 60 GB of hard drive space right out of the box for storing videos, music, and downloadable content without requiring a separate memory card. The PS3 can also connect to Sony's portable handheld, the PSP, and transfer data back and forth. The PlayStation 3 60 GB launch model also features a flash reader, a built-in 802.11b/g Wi-Fi for accessing your home wireless network, and four USB ports for connecting external storage devices and other peripherals to the system. The hardware outputs in full 1080p video resolution, so the image will look crisp and clear even on a modern high definition television set or monitor. With the power of the PlayStation 3 60 GB and its 3.2 GHz cell processor, you can enjoy sophisticated graphics in full high-definition and game the way you want to. Featuring unforgettable titles in a wide variety of genres, the Sony PlayStation 3 is a versatile console that has something for every member of the family. The PlayStation 3 60 GB is also backward compatible with most games released for the original PlayStation and the PlayStation 2, a feature unavailable in later versions of the PS3. So, when you're done playing PS3 titles, you can still enjoy classic favorites from the PS1 and the PS2 at the same time.

Great value for what I got, the listing said “console only” but when I contacted the seller he responded fairly quickly and told me that it came with everything in the image. all I had to buy was the controller for it. He also packaged it very nicely. He had shipped the package out same day even though I had ordered it pretty late maybe around like 8-10pm, and it only took about a week for it to arrive. overall great seller that provides a good buying experience would buy from this seller again

My experience with this seller was very positive💯. I bought a DJ mixer worth $1079. I had issues tracking my package after seller shipped it. (I could not track my item on my tracking app or USPS website for 10 days) Seller helped resolve the issue. Promptly responded to all my messages, persued the matter and I finally got my package. Item is of high quality, exact in appearance as in description (mixer + flightcase) and is worth the amount. Item arrived in good condition and well packaged.

It's great.
Works perfect, it's on 3.15 firmware, the disc drive works, the controllers work, everything works. It's backward compatible with PS2 and PS1. There's no dust inside of it. It still works on the PSN network. The fans do start to speed up slightly after not long of being turned on (I'm not sure but I think this may be normal for FAT models). But one thing that worried me is a slight zap sound I heard after turning off the switch at the back. I also experienced a mild tingling sensation from touching the on/off part. I'm not sure if this was due to static electricity or what but it hasnt happened since and I now use the controller to turn it on and off. I also purchased a USB fan, and laptop cooling pad which I also use to keep it cool. Great product and good price.Works perfect, it's on 3.15 firmware, the disc drive works, the controllers work, everything works. It's backward compatible with PS2 and PS1.

PS3 Only Works Some of the Time
The PS3 is in good physical shape, but doesn't work all the time. It freezes up during a game or the screen goes black after 10-15 mins and I have to power cycle it to get it to work again. I don't hear the fan getting loud, so doubt it's a heating issue. I'm taking it to a repair shop this week to have it looked at and hopefully fixed so it will be a stable system capable of playing games again.

PERFORMANCE ROCKS ... PS1 & PS2 BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE ... GREAT PRODUCT !
the PS3 80G model #CECHE01 is the perfect solution for anyone who wants a PS3 console, but also wants backwards compatibility with PS2 & PS1 games. the secret is do not let your unit overheat, and the way to ensure that is operate it in a normal environment (house temperature, not outside temperature), and the best way to ensure that is keep it clean, do NOT lets dust accumulate (i feather dust my console once/week and keep it covered with a small towel). this is the best overall console i've ever owned, understood the newer consoles are much richer, but this beast delivers amazing graphics, has all the features and game play a person needs, and the backwards compatibility is a HUGE add for anyone who wants to leverage the value locked up in their library of PS1 & PS2 games.the PS3 80G model #CECHE01 is the perfect solution for anyone who wants a PS3 console, but also wants backwards compatibility with PS2 & PS1 games. the secret is do not let your unit overheat, and the way to ensure that is operate it in a normal environment (house temperature, not outside temperature), and the best way to ensure that is keep it clean, do NOT lets dust accumulate (i feather dust my console once/week and keep it covered with a small towel). this is the best overall console i've ever owned, understood the newer consoles are much richer, but this beast delivers amazing graphics, has all the features and game play a person needs, and the backwards compatibility is a HUGE add for anyone who wants to leverage the value locked up in their library of PS1 & PS2 games.

Awesome value for three generations of PlayStation
Original released PlayStation 3 console. Working in great condition. Compatible with the entire family of PlayStation One and PS2 games. Firmware at 3.55 for modders to tweak with (I am thinking of getting someone do this for me). And, all for under $300. Nothing is a better deal than this. The Xbox One or the PlayStation 4 can't even dream of such a huge game library. And online is still supported, and FREE, of all things. The PS3's XMB is one of the cleanest and easiest to use UI in any console. The only thing going against this console is the original's hard drive space, at a paltry 60GB. Nothing much there, but easy to upgrade; just get a 2.5" 500GB SSD, format it to FAT32 for the PS3 to recognize, install, and go. Another gripe that is against all PlayStation 3 consoles, is the ...

Another gripe that is against all PlayStation 3 consoles, is the atrocious update process. Every game, has to first download, and then install updates, one at a time. Especially infuriating when there are huge 4+GB of updates and the connection to the network drops for any random reason. If anyone wants a PS3, they can definitely get it at half or even a third of the price, no problem. However, I feel that this release model PS3 is the perfect one for gamers with a huge library of PlayStation games of the past, and little shelf space for multiple consoles.

A Legendary console that will only become harder to find.
This is the one PS3 you want if you care about backwards compatibility, Europe never got it, Japan never got it. Only the Launch PS3s and the MGS4 bundle have the model number CECH-A01. Feel free to google some of the later revisions with Emotion Engine (the gpu in the PS2) emulation and the difference is clear. Some PS2 games were not tested using method and if you're a collector of the platform then it's bound to rear its ugly head at some point. Games also load slightly faster on the platform and the since the PS3 uses modern 2.5' HDDs, you can even put modern storage like SSDs in this thing to increase performance (granted it uses SATA2 so you'll never achieve the full speed of the drive but it's a noticeable bumb) there is also a smoothing function built into the PS3 which like ...

There will never be a console like the Launch PS3 ever again.
