I'm from Rawalpindi, while visiting a gameshop I saw PS3 slim with multi stickers on them and knew they had to be cfw. He was selling 160 for 30k and 320 for 33k.

Does someone bought similar PS3 and is it safe to buy, I mean they can be old and refurbished.

though legit is good for online play i guess - but the cost of original disc is way to much --hence i also have lt 3.0 xbox and i burn my own lt 3.0 stealth patch games - beats buying expensive disc plus xbl gives away 2 games per month which again is a added bonus , even though they might be old titles still ---the new gears judgement which they have offered is a treat to play in multi player

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
