if you hack a ps3 can you set it to overclock to get a more consistent 30fps

No. You are not having fun. I forbid you to play older games. Go buy whatever is the most recent. You are a stupid. Go die and then kill yourself. Because you are not enjoying anything unless I allow you to do so

Most games from that gen are better than ps4 and ps5 gen games.

I found myself using the PS3 for PS1 games more than actual PS3 games lately. Emulation or not, they run way better on the PS3 than they ever did on PS1, and I don't need not gay ass modchip to get HDMI out of these games either.

Of course it's hacked, it's current year and it only takes a few files to hack a PS3. That said, I do have physical PS3 and PS1 games and the hack was mainly to make this Japanese PS3 region-free. Being able to play 3D Dot Heroes without paying out the ass for a physical copy (because it was a physical-only game) and all of those PSN titles long since delisted is merely a bonus for getting my copy of RC Helicopter to work.

There's no reason not to install HEN or CFW (depending on the model). For an old box like this it's still pretty capable when it comes to emulation and even movie playback (it struggles with h265 but anything on h264 is easy pickings).

Not at all, PS3 lets you upscale to 480p all the way up to 1080p if you don't want the original 240p, and does fast reading (disc and memory card) without breaking game compatibility. And with hacking you can load the isos directly from the hard drive, so no PSN debuff for output options.

I'm not sure about the popularity, but I found it for $10 at the local store and was surprised to see it's a cool game worth playing. Apparently it's part of a series of budget titles for PS1 and PS2, a lot of them have generic ass names like Kickboxing, Snowboarding, Dodgeball, Paparazzi, Zombie Virus, etc. but the actual games themselves get pretty creative with the main concept.

Nope. I almost exclusively play on my PS5. I only play on my PC when I want to emulate PS2, PS1, Gamecube, etc.

I just bought an x360 online to have sent to a send-in service to get modded, mostly just as a fallback for games I can't be assed to pay truckloads to buy and as a fallback for when my main console fails.

I like the idea of having consoles that just work offline.

the most reliable model
I own two (one HEN modded, one stock) they run cool and quiet.

I go back further and play 3rd through 6th gen games. But in all honesty, the problem isn't that games went o shit, the problem is that PlayStation and Xbox went to shit. Nintendo and Valve been keeping the game industry alive.

I only got a ps4 a few months ago and it's pretty decent. Before that, yes, 7th gen and older games.

That's a cope. Should have pretended to own a ps5 but still play older gens instead. But sure, I can "burrow" all the new shiny games out there without spending a dime but I still prefer to play older and indie games now.

That only applies to PS3 games.
PS2 and PS1 games are still region locked and so are DVD and Blu-Ray movies.
