Uh... both aren't large-scale multiplayer shooters with vehicular combat? Warhawk seems pretty Battlefield-esque to me, except for not having classes and weapon pick-ups, except that Warhawk feels oddly floaty to me and I can't get my head around it. It's not a bad game, I just can't stand the way it feels; no matter how much I mess with the sensitivity, it doesn't feel right.Madman said:

I used to play a lot of BF2 on PC when it came out...it was great fun. Warhawk is sorta like that? That's a sale.
Any good RPGs on PS3? I am gonna hold myself with FFXII (a game I haven't played yet) until something new comes around there...

If Eternal Sonata ends up coming out this year, that's a good (not fantastic) RPG that's worth checking out if you're dying for a JRPG.captmcblack said:
Maybe one of us have not played the other game enough, but from what I played, B:BC is not anything like Warhawk. They both have vehicles and guns, but that is about as far as it goes. BF2 is closer, but comparing Warhawk to Battlefield is like comparing Flight Simulator to Crimson Skies. Same basic concept, but two very different executions. Warhawk is much more arcadey in general.I AM JOHN! said:

Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction
Ratchet & Clank: Quest for Booty PSN
Resistance: Fall of Man so you're ready for R2 in November!
Also... buy Fl0w.

MGS4 is a necessity, fuck every last hater in this thread. Disgaea 3, Uncharted, and Burnout Paradise if you don't own it on 360.
As for PSN, go with: flOw, Everyday Shooter, PixelJunk Monsters, PixelJunk Eden, Bionic Commando Rearmed, and maybe The Last Guy (play the demo, see what you think).
Oh, and don't forget the fuck awesome Metal Gear Database.

Dualshock 3 (MUST HAVE even though cod4 doesn't support rumble)
Gioteck Real Triggers (MUST HAVE)
SuperStardust HD
Warhawk (don't be fooled....it's potentially the most "lolfun" online multiplayer this gen so far)
MGS4 (maybe pick up the essentials collection if you haven't played the rest)
Uncharted (will make you proud of your HDTV/PS3)

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
I haven't read any respones yet, but I'm pretty much a fact stater so listen to me if you want good games. Oh, and don't bother doing this:
Blu-ray Disc:
Buy Resistance, it's an awesome experience (single player wise too for the story, prepare for R2)
Skip Motorstorm, it's an fucking awesome game but Pacific Rift will rock it's world.
Virtua Fighter 5 or Soul Calibur IV or both if you're into deep/fun 3D fighting games.
If you liked previous Ridge Racer games, you're gonna LOVE RR7. It's single player contains at least 50 hours of fun (and fucking frustrating) gameplay. Multiplayer is OK.
Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion if your PC sucks and you're into American RPGs. Check out some videos of this before deciding to buy it.
The Darkness: Really, REALLY engaging story with pretty good gameplay. It tends to get repetetive towards the end but the story will make you play it twice.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma: If you haven't played any other Ninja Gaiden games and if you're into action games that requires deep fucking reflex skills.
Heavenly Sword: It's platinum now. There is no reason what so ever not to buy it. It's 6 hours long, yes, but it's one hell'uva ride experience. Do not miss this one.
Warhawk: Just fucking buy it, seriously. Also adding that people are constantly playing Warhawk, finding servers to play in takes less than 5 seconds.
Ratchet & Clank Future: Last years GotY for me, but GAF hates it. I'll just recommend it for you, since I don't want to get killed.
Burnout Paradise: Incredibly fun and addicting. Some parts are too frustrating but overall experience is a no-miss. Try out the demo and see if you like it. If you don't like it, buy it. If you do like it, buy it (no typo, seriously. The demo sucked).
Uncharted: RAWR >
Devil May Cry 4: Holy shit, don't trust the haters. This years best experience if you take MGS4 away. Top notch gameplay, amazing graphics and awesome cutscenes. Some people don't like the back tracking but it shouldn't stop you from playing it through at least once. Oh and Bloody Palace alone makes it worth it.
GTAIV:
MGS4: !
PSN Network:
fl0w: Cheap and incredible, 'nuff said.
T5: DR Online: While the online part pretty much sucks ass, if you like Tekken, you'll love this one.
Puzzle Fighter II HD: Download the demo. Enjoyed it? Buy it. It's awesome.
PixelJunk: Monsters: This one will rock your world. Heck, you don't even need to like tower defense games to like Monsters, it's that good.
Stardust HD: Addicting as fuck, now with trophies, demo sucks, just buy it.
PixelJunk: Eden: Best PSN game out there, got over 60 hours from Eden.
I skipped some games but my fingers started to hurt so :/
EDIT: Oh you wanted future games too? I'd put the list up but there are titles like T6 and FFXIII there, those won't be out for a while so...
Killzone 2
Resistance 2
Pacific Rift
Wipeout HD
Next PixelJunk game
Fallout 3, look for Oblivion above.
LittleBigPlanet
Bioshock
Yakuza 3/Kenzan
Valkyrie of the Battlefield
Mirrors Edge

for shooters don't sleep on Bioshock PS3 at least as a rental, looks good. Buy Resistance 2.
also what good in the hood insofar as PS3 wireless bluetooth headsets? I see the Jabra's offereings with the older BT125 and the BT135 Bluetooth Wireless Headsets, what else?
EDIT: Should I wait for Sony's Official one coming out soon?

I've heard that some Motorola ones give trouble so I've stayed away from those. I had a Plantronics one that was great until I lost it (think it was a 320?). The Jabra BT 125 is what I got about 2 weeks ago when on sale at BB for $25. Works fantastic. Pairs easily and re-pairs excellently. Seems to actually be able to be paired with my cell phone and be paired with the PS3 without having to re-link them up again which is very nice. Don't quote me on that last part as I'm not completely sure as I haven't done it often.

Got it. Their newest offerings are here, not bad. I'm looking to buy one and probably nab Warhawk.

It can be paired with multiple devices at once. I do the same. Just make sure you only have your phone or your PS3 nearby when you tunr on the headset. Or turn off autopairing on the phone and turn it on when you need it.
I just went through the entirety of the OB for PS3, and I have to say: fuck-that-shit.stuburns said:
While the games themselves are solid, there are just far too many technical issues with this version to even warrant the purchase. The audio cracking constantly is so ridiculously irritating, there are several glitchy areas, and dipping frame rates don't help.
The OP has a worthy PC, from the sounds of it, as well as a 360, so while this is a non-issue for him, I certainly don't want anyone to believe this port is acceptable .
As for game suggestions...
PixelJunk Monsters/Eden, Bionic Commando Rearmed, flOw, Disgaea 3, Folklore, MGS4, Heavenly Sword, Uncharted, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, and Resistance (first few levels suck, but stick with it)
question about ratchet and clank.
I downloaded and played the $15 one that was on psn. I thought it was ok. I liked the characters and the platforming aspects, but hated the shooter aspects. It is my understanding that the psn version, because you don't have clank, is the *most* focused on platforming skills.
Are the rest of the games more shooter based? If a full version was at *least* as platforming heavy as the psn one then I might consider it, otherwise no way.

Just ordered Ninja Gaiden Sigma and Uncharted.
When I get home from work/school, I'll set up a PSN ID and start grabbing some downloads.
Do you buy things with points, like on Wii or 360, or are things measured in dollars?

You can do that from the console in the US, and I believe you can sign up for a PSN id online in Europe. I don't know that it's possible to sign up online in the US though. Was looking for it on the Playstation site and in the signup section it only references signing up using the console.

Small word of advice: many of the games mentioned here have demos available to download. I would strongly recommend you try them before going out and making a purchase. Just because GAF hypes a game doesn't necessarily make it anything special. (I'm looking at you, ResistanceÂ…)
After spending a fair bit of time with most of the ‘big’ PSN releases, Super Stardust HD is the only one I would actually recommend you buy — it's the only one I've spent any real length of time playing. (and I keep going back because it's so good — best game on the system)

Same here, and I love it. This game is fulfilling every jrpg want and need right now. Great stuff, endless amounts of detail in this game. Goofy story to be sure, but the levels are a blast and some of the classes are badass. Buy it now before it disappears off the shelves forever!
