Playing Minecraft PS3 Edition in 2023

It’s been over eight years since PS3 Minecraft released and the old console editions are some of the most nostalgic versions for so many people including myself the video where I Revisited the old Xbox 360 Minecraft is my most popular to this day so I thought it’d be

A great start to the year 2023 by playing the very first update of Minecraft released for the PlayStation 3. buying a PS3 for this video set me back about 70 Great British pounds so I truly hope this video brings back Cherished Memories for many people sit

Back and enjoy as I take you on a trip to Minecraft in 2014. I started a brand new survival world on this a few days ago so I’m going to show you around that and we can see what’s really changed in Minecraft over the years it’s going to

Be extra nostalgic going back to the first ever update of this if I connected to the internet I can’t get a much newer version of Minecraft I know it has a lighter in it I don’t know how far it goes after that but right now I’m going

To stick to the old update for the pure Minecraft Nostalgia trip and welcome to my world here is my wheat farm I have one carrot there oh no they’re potatoes I haven’t built much on it so far I’ve been working on this bridge mainly I haven’t even got a house yet over here

Is where I want to build my house it’s a weird shape I might as well make it quirky seeing as there aren’t all of the fancy blocks we have nowadays to make builds like detailed so it’s kind of best to just do a random shaped build I

Made a little lamp here I have a cactus farm as I’m working on a sheep farm to make a creeper statue on top of this hill so if you cross the bridge I did a little detailed pass here with some flowers on the side sheep farm I haven’t dyed them yet but I

Need to dye them very soon after my Cactus finally starts to grow then I can work on the creeper up there I should probably go to sleep I don’t want to die to any mobs I can show you my makeshift house for now it’s over here by this

Cross I don’t know why I made it across I thought it’d be a creepy little reference to when people thought Herobrine would spawn in if there was a cross in the floor I remember those Minecraft 3am videos on Pocket Edition let’s go kill this skeleton I’m almost

At level 30. that’s gonna be fun I still haven’t found diamonds I went strip mining for ages and no luck but I feel like this update of PlayStation 3 had less diamonds than the previous update I played on Xbox 360 edition it just seems they aren’t as common on this world oh

Yeah I love the fact they give you a map that shows the whole world from the very start of the game I don’t want to explore too much of it as I’m hoping to update this world to the newest update one day and then I’ll get some extra

Biome so I’m kind of keeping to this corner over here down here I made a cake to get the achievement because you can get trophies in the console edition that’s what I really liked about it oh I did find one Diamond wow there’s down to

My strip mine we don’t have to go and see that but let’s just wander around the world explore during what there is to see as you’ll notice we have one of the rarest biomes ever well it just doesn’t exist anymore that’s what I mean they deleted this Extreme Hills by him for

The more Rocky Mountains looking and then they changed the Rocky Mountains to just the caves and glyphs update so they have these giant mountains nowadays oh and look you can block with the swords though I remember that from Xbox 360. that brings back so many memories of

Teaming on Hunger Games you’d always do that oh yeah here’s my skin as it’s Christmas time I’ll show you I’m a Christmas pudding can’t really tell what I’m wearing the armor so I’ll take it off but these are the Extreme Hills let’s go to the very

Top see what we can look out at sorry I’m gonna kill these animals for food I always run low so it’s best to keep an eye on how much you’ve got oh yeah and here’s where I spawned I started over around there in the snowy area gotta

Find a way up this mountain I don’t want to break it too badly oh we’re getting there no this way looks better oh look at these views and the low render distance on console but it doesn’t lag at all right now although I’ll show you an issue later

When I go to the Jungle it does seem to lag but look at this world generation it’s so pretty a bunch of Rocky Mountains here the snowy area more Extreme Hills grass down there I don’t like the grass in this biome as much as the Flatlands the Flatlands are my

Favorite Cross or even the jungle has nice grass let’s go this direction now oh yeah there’s a desert village you can see the little gray part in the desert I don’t want to explore that too much I just had to get cactus for my farm I’m gonna leave the rest for the future

World Generation oh you can see my house from over here yay and we have a nice river that goes all the way around this Forest Forest is pretty good let’s go over to the Jungle I can show you the lag issues we’ve had but what I really

Want to find are pumpkins as I’m a big fan of making snow golems and iron golems roam around your house I’ll make like an area for the snow golems as I always forget to do that nowadays because there’s so much else to do in Minecraft but back then I kind of did a

Lot more different stuff seeing as there was less things to do in total if you know what I mean so I’d use snow golems I’d get lots of wolves which I don’t tend to get anymore I just forget about getting dogs now look the frame rate

Drops you can see that I don’t know if you can tell perfect here as I turn this direction it gets laggy I believe that’s because of the Jungle bone because jungles just have a lot of leaves which as leaves are see-through creates more lag I think that’s why because you have fast sleeve

Settings on Java Edition there’s also lots of vines and other plants that are just difficult to render in although it’s fine now that’s weird probably oh yeah there’s just random patches that starts to lag in so that is the one issue with PlayStation 3 Minecraft so old consoles can’t keep up with jungles

I guess I feel like such an old man playing these old editions and getting nostalgic for the past I shouldn’t be at this stage yet I’m still young but I just love going back oh look we can check up what happens oh we can check out what

Happens at the end of the world look it’s just so weird seeing him vast sea like this you don’t usually get them this big without any land but in old console edition at the border you always would get the giant Seas so this brings back a lot of memories

Um and here we can see what happens when they generate a little bit wrong oh and I’ll die if I go under there but look at that oh you can’t mine these blocks and I’ve had an issue before where I’ve been mining strip mining and there was

Actually a diamond on this layer but you can do a trick with sticky pistons and pull it back out which I didn’t know about back then but it was very sad when I was a kid that was probably my villain Arc story when I couldn’t get to the

Diamonds in the world order but there is something nice about living in a smaller world than infinite Java worlds or Bedrock worlds we have now it made the world feel more like a community if you play with your friends you would all have like know the area you’d have your

Own spots where you’d build a house and visit each other like you’re all in a close proximity you can’t stray too far away from each other in this small map and it just meant like you would spend more time in Worlds I feel like well it

Depends on Java Edition you can do crazy stuff I’ve had a fair share of great worlds on that but it was more like a sense of community on old smaller worlds like we would make shopping areas and Mini-Game places and then have all of our houses in a little town my

PlayStation just made a loud clicking noise I don’t know what that means it does that occasionally and it sounds kind of worrying oh yeah I forgot to mention something very nostalgic is roses let’s go find some roses and also the dandelions look much different back

In the old day I don’t know why they bothered changing them they’re kind of more round now which is illegal in Minecraft roses seem really rare why they’re only yellow flowers let’s keep looking for them I know I have some back at home so I’m trying to find my way

There oh yeah caves were very different back in then than they are in the cave update much smaller usually although they did have some cool underground places all right we’re almost back at my base something cool about PlayStation 3 is the online service is still up so if

You do have friends who also have the console you can join each other’s world you will have to update to the newest version though so that’s why I’m gonna update soon because my friend also has Minecraft on PS3 so we’re gonna play this world together um and here we go

Here’s the old Rose I have been past it already and shown you but forgot to look at them so nostalgic I wish poppies never existed these are way better also comment down below if you remember the blue roses or whatever I don’t know what cyan flower I think

They’re in pocket edition only yes we’re getting green the very old versions of Pocket Edition had cyan flowers I’ll put a picture up now I need to smelt this Cactus I’m gonna have a slice of cake I feel like for the video I got to do it

As I have not touched it for a while there we go took it from the very back let’s grab this cactus green we’re also gonna need some bone meal I’m gonna Chuck a few things away I forgot to mention about the old crafting you can see it was like there’s a little

Crafting grid everything was in its place kind of like Bedrock bedrocks is just different it’s built for the mobile more but this is very nostalgic to look at I haven’t seen it in a long time we can now make lime for the creeper there we go four pieces of lime trying to get

Some bookshelves as well for an enchantment table but I can’t craft one of them yet I don’t have enough diamonds I know I need dark gray already for the creeper oh no maybe I need black but I’ll dye these other ones first making progress in this world foreign

I have no idea what I need to do with my house now it’s not going very well I think I’ll just use wood hmm I don’t mind that I can put Windows in each of these and maybe this one can be the doorway let’s see

Let’s see where is my ax I don’t have an ax there we go that looks alright I’m gonna go to bed it’s getting night time the Sheep’s trying to hide oh good morning Minecraft world what shall I do now I should harvest my wheat not sure what I’m using the wheat

For I forgot oh wait I remember you can trade wheat for emeralds at the Village that’s a good use what else can I do make bread make cakes make cookies oh I should have harvested cocoa beans while I was at the jungle it’d be nice to have

A little Wheat Field all around actually so yeah there’s fill this all in with wheat getting quite big yay oh this area looks so nostalgic the graphics are a bit like brighter I think it has something to do with gamma you can change the gamma and it kind of makes the game

A bit washed out but also much brighter let’s see how it looks on 100 oh wow I used to play on 100 all the time but I don’t think I like it like that it was pretty good on 50 I’d say yeah it just makes it look nice and green and vibrant

I love it and it’s something to do with like the resolution it gets kind of blurry in the background it just reminds me of playing Xbox 360 edition back then also I did grow up playing PlayStation 3 at my best friend’s house so I have a

Lot of memories on this Edition as well oh I’m gonna use this for the floor might as well get rid of it because I don’t need these Cobblestone slabs there so yeah this is 2023 and I’m still enjoying PlayStation 3 edition it’s fun to go back to the simpler days of

Minecraft and what I was thinking is I could do update videos on this world when me and my friend update the world as well I can show off what new features there are I’ll just do little tours of updates we’ve made like builds we do things we find in the world it’ll be

Kind of a fun little series to do on the side as you guys seem to like when I play old versions of Minecraft thank you so much for tuning in for this episode I’m really glad I bought a PlayStation for this it’s gonna be really fun

Playing this from time to time anyway I really hope you enjoyed this and hope it wasn’t too emotional looking back on the old days let me know in the comments what you want to see next and please leave a like And subscribe to help me out see you next time bye bye
