Hi

So I'm getting a PlayStation 3 for Christmas, got it in a bundle with Metal Gear Solid 4, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and Condemned 2: Bloodshot. What other must own titles are there for the PS3. Bearing in mind I have GTA IV on the 360, CoD4 on PC, Fallout 3 on PC, FarCry 2 on PC and Oblivion on 360. I'm also not a big fan of sports games though either, and I also want a few decent online ones for the PS3.

Thanks.
 
Uncharted, Wipeout HD and Little Big Planet are fantastic.

Resistance 2 is shaping up very nicely, the online coop beta is fantastic

If you're into RPGs Valkyria Chronicles has been referred to by some reviews as the best JRPG of this generation (certainly the best one on the PS3, though that isn't hard).

Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction is a great budget title, you can get it for around a tenner second hand.

Burnout Paradise, while not an exclusive, is one of the very few titles that is actually marginally better on the PS3

Loads of PSN titles are worth looking at, Super Stardust HD, Pixeljunk eden and monsters are very good. I'm also strangely addicted to Elefunk atm too.

So any idea how much that would cost:D.

Anyway I would like to back up Resistance and Resistance 2. R1 is upto now my favourite game on the PS3 and Resistance 2 looks to be taking that crown.

Exceedingly good (So long as you can cope with large amounts of story sequences), but not really a full-on RPG IMHO- It's more of a cross between a RPG & a turn-based strategy game :)

For complete mindless fun, Conan is also a rather good budget option. Lacks many things (Rumble is the biggest omission), but is actually rather amusing!

I should be getting my PS3 soon I'm just waiting for the store to get my 60gb. I guess they have to wait until someone sells a 60gb to one of their stores. Heavenly Sword looks like the kind of game I'd enjoy. I've herd it's not that good. Does it suck or is it underrated?

hey squirrel did you get my msg and add me to 360 club team? I think you're one of the managers. Its quite cool you can send voice msgs instead of typing. Cant do that on PSN i dont think.

Uncharted, Wipeout HD and Little Big Planet. You then have Resistance 2 shortly after Little Big Planet and Motorstorm 2 also.

I wouldn't bother with any of the older games if you have an Xbox360 or PC, thankfully the new exclusives seem to have *****.
 
out now:
uncharted (ps3)
soul calibur 4 (multi)
burnout paradise (multi)

psn games:
super stadust HD
wipeout HD
pixel junk eden

upcoming games (next few months):
little big planet (ps3)
resistance 2 (ps3)
killzone 2 (ps3)
mirrors edge (multi)
prince of persia (multi)
 
Why would he want both MotorStorm games? Surely he'd be better off just getting the new one?

How? Theyre different games. Different tracks, vehicles and soundtrack. I think the first one looks better than the second aswell + its well cheap and Pacific Rift isnt out in the UK yet.
 
Only one person mentioned metal gear solid 4 ?, how the mighty fall from grace so quick :)
Saying that mine sits on the shelf gathering dust but still a good game.
