PSA: Don't Buy a PS3 12GB System for over $100

Hey Guys, you might be wondering where I have been. Well, long hours of studying and working have been holding me back from writing. Over the weekend, I was able to catch up on some video games and actually make a couple of pick ups. It's nothing too special, but I do have some announcements to make for those of you who are either collecting old video game consoles.

I ended up getting this baby from my local pawn shop for just $60.

She's a bit dusty, but she runs just fine...

If you never been to a pawn shop before, then all you need to know is that you get what you pay for.
Everything is not labeld with specifics and I bought this console not knowing that this was the 12GB model. While I only paid about $60 for it, I still feel like I was ripped off.

However, it's not too bad as I could always upgrade the hard drive at a dirt cheap price since the PS3 is not too high in demand nowadays. I literally found a 500GB hard drive for this specific model for around $37, so I pick that up at a later time since I won't have time to use it. If you're wondering what games I bought with the system, then here they are...

It really isn't anything special...

No, I didn't pick these up at the pawnshop. I got them from GameStop since I could use some more points to get some coupons. If I had the time and didn't have to do holiday shopping, then I would have bought a lot more games. I've always wanted to play The Last of Us and Uncharted series, so I just couldn't pass up buying a PS3 on the cheap.

My plan is to collect most of the PS3 exclusive games as well as games that I couldn't find for the Xbox 360 either because they are cheaper or obviously couldn't find them. Eventually, I'll get a PS4, but I literally have no spare room to put it.

I know I did a bit of clickbait, but seriously don't go to GameStop and get this 12GB model for over a $100. You can find it a lot cheaper pretty much anywhere online and just upgrade the hard drive.
Till Next Time!!

Ubisoft Reports a Fall in Sales, but PS4 is its best platform

Hey Guys, normally when sales begin to decline it shows a trend. When reading the title of this article, should we really be surprised? Ubisoft has been on the bad track ever since Assassin's Creed: Unity. As a matter of fact, Ubisoft has been on the bad track since the release of Watch Dogs!

Don't get me wrong, I love Ubisoft. I love Far Cry, Assassin's Creed, Splinter Cell, and Ghost Recon. However, there is no denying that they have been releasing poor quality games recently and just overall bad business ideas.

I'm pretty sure you want to see the numbers. Ubisoft revealed its financials for the quarter and reported a 73 percent year-on-year decline in sales. Holy cow. While the sales are going down, PS4 is Ubisoft's best selling platform. Here are even more numbers of pouplar consoles Ubisoft games have been sold on,

• PS4: 27%
• PC: 23%
• Xbox 360/One/PS3: 11%
• Wii and Wii U: 3%

Honestly, I am surprised that last-gen consoles are still holding up today. Put together, they are actually outselling current-gen Ubisoft games. However, Ubisoft is still on the decline.

Just recently, Forbes released an article on Ubisoft's CEO discussing the reason why digital games are so high when compared to physical retail games. You can check out the article here.

Seriously Ubisoft, you have to get your act together. Assassin's Creed: Syndicate will be releasing this year and if this game comes out with glitches then you are done for. 

Till Next Time!!
