In the meantime, the PlayStation 3 has still been getting game releases. Indie titles like the arcade shooter #KillAllZombies arrived just a few days prior. The console will also be receiving the highly anticipated Persona 5 along with its successor, the PlayStation 4.

The PlayStation 3 was beloved for its many hit games like The Last Of Us and had strong features like the ability to play Blu-ray discs, and were even cheaper than most standalone Blu-ray players for a very long time.

For those worried about the longevity of their consoles, you can pick up a PlayStation 3 at fairly low prices.
