@japanesetalk.bsky.social I have a good grasp of the grammar, can read Hirigana/Katakana and working through N5 Kanji, but do you have tips on how to start learning actual vocabulary that isn't just memorizing an Anki deck?

Hello PlayStation 3 fans, it's been a while. Too many heatwaves in the UK this summer to dare put the console on. I've been playing some Lord of the Rings games for the upcoming issue.

This UK heatwave is rather inconvinient when I have a week to go before my next issue and I need to play some games on a console notorious for overheating 🔥

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 14/05/2026

Thats a Platinum Trophy on Murdered: Souls Suspect. OK it's an easy one to get, but still satisfying.

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 08/05/2026

Latest pick up for the PS3. I remember hearing mixed reviews at the time but more positive ones recently?

I seem to be going through a phase of inferior PS3 ports...

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 07/05/2026

Turned on the PlayStation 3 today to find I need to update to 4.93... I am sure I already did that in March 🤣

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 27/03/2026

I love Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 but I really wish it didn't have a missable trophy that I only realise 30 hours in and to get it requires a complete second playthrough!

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 27/03/2026

Looking at the stealth games for PlayStation 3 the only one I could see that I didn't own was Thief (2014). Apparently it has terrible FPS dips on the PS3 but when has that ever stopped us before!

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 24/03/2026

I've been playing Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 which is an astonishingly good and fun game but it's given me the itch to go and play some Stealth games too. It's got me thinking about Stealth games on the #PS3

The Ridge Racer 7 online leaderboards still work and people are still playing it. That is incredible #PlayStation3

Day 24 Motorstorm The final entry and a PS3 classic. Motorstorm is a fun arcade, off-road racer and a must own for any fan. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 23/12/2025

Day 23 Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time This fun, time-travelling stealth adventure is available for PS3 and Vita and physical copies are available. Travel through time with Sly as he meets up with his ancestors. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 22/12/2025

Day 22 Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus Another Ratchet & Clank exclusive, perhaps one of the weaker ones in the series, it's still a decent action platformer and I recently got the Platinum trophy. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 21/12/2025

Day 21 Ridge Racer 7 A lunch title arcade racer. Being an early title it's often overlooked but it has its fans and is one of the few games that run at 1080p 60fps. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 20/12/2025

Day 20 Sports Champions The quintessential PlayStation Move title! It's actually pretty decent with a good range of sports that work well with the motion controllers. My favourite is Bocce. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 19/12/2025

Day 19 Drakengard 3 If you are a fan of the Nier series then perhaps checkout this entry in the original Drakengard series. Although it didn't receive the best reviews and physical copies are now very expensive on the second hand market. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 18/12/2025

Day 18 Siren: Blood Curse This creepy survival horror game is perhaps more Halloween than Christmas but it remains an excellent horror exclusive. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

000

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 17/12/2025

Day 17 Puppeteer An excellent 2.5D platformer which takes place in a theatre. It's really fun and unique and worth checking out. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

000

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 16/12/2025

Day 16 God of War Ascension It's not the best God of War game, but its still decent. Somehow its never had a release on any other console. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

000

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 15/12/2025

Day 15 Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time My personal favorite Ratchet and Clank on the PS3. The story and voice acting is really funny and Clanks puzzle missions are a really neat addition. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

000

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 14/12/2025

Day 14 Resistance 2 Another sequel - am I cheating? Maybe a little bit but it's still a great PlayStation 3 exclusive and a solid sequel. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 13/12/2025

Day 13 3D Dot Game Heroes It's Zelda but 3D. This is another hidden gem on the console. It is best described as a 2D Zelda clone but in 3D with an interesting block art style. We reviewed it in Issue 1. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3 playstation3forever.com/issues/issue...

3D Dot Game Heroes

It’s 2D Zelda on the PlayStation, but in 3D. What’s not to love?

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 13/12/2025

Day 12 LittleBigPlanet 2 The brilliant follow up to the first LittleBigPlanet, really improves on the formula of the first. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 12/12/2025

Day 11 The Guided Fate Paradox I have never played this one and don't actually own it, but it regularly appears on interesting PlayStation 3 exclusive lists. Have you tried this roguelike dungeon crawler? #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

000

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 11/12/2025

Day 10 Tokyo Jungle A sci-fi action game set in the future where animals have taken over Tokyo. It's a unique and interesting title. The game only got a physical release in Japan but can be picked up for a reasonable price. #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

000

PlayStation 3 Forever @ps3forever.bsky.social · 11/12/2025

Day 8 inFamous A great PS3 exclusive. You play as Cole MacGrath who gets superpowers. Do you use your powers for good or evil? On my list of ganes to Platinum! #AdventOfPS3 #PlayStation3

Day 6 Heavenly Sword An early PlayStation 3 exclusive, propelled by excellent motion capture but a short title with with some interesting six-axis controls playstation3forever.com/issues/issue...

Heavenly Sword

This classic PlayStation 3 hack and slash, adventure title received a lot of critism for short length and six-axis controls but how does it feel to play today?
