Some of the oldest PS3 games cost hundreds of dollars, so people who want to add them to their collection will have to spend a lot of money.
When it comes to gathering, the PlayStation 3 is a beast. Many of its games have held their value quite well over the years. The graphics are much easier for people who are new to retro gaming to deal with because the games for the machine are newer than games for older systems like the Sega Saturn or the Master System.
A lot of Playstation 3 games are being hard to find, some just because they are so popular and some because they make people feel nostalgic. The most expensive PS3 games are usually the ones that people play the most, and many of them are still fun to play.

Even though the game has gotten bad reviews and comments over the years, NBA Elite 11 has had a big effect on the sports sim genre. EA had set standards for the game that it had to meet before it could be released, but it was still released.
The game was supposed to replace the NBA Live series, but it never did because it was hard to make. Because of all the problems and bad luck that went along with it, it is one of the most famous basketball games ever made and one of the hardest PS3 games to find.
