- mgs4
- littlebigplanet

i don't really like uncharted (what i've played of it). any other games i should be aware of?

also, what fighters are on the ps3? (besides vf5)

 

[RadioHeadAche]

Is it really so difficult to do a little research before posting these threads?

 

[Stabby McSter]

yes. yes it is. :\

 

[Arch]

We get a few of these threads every week, just use the damn search function.

 

[neorej]

Uncharted
Ratchet & Clank
MotorStorm Pacific Rift
Resistance 2

And start putting money aside for Killzone 2.

 

[Private Hoffman]

What don't you like of Uncharted?

Uncharted
Ratchet & Clank
MotorStorm Pacific Rift
Resistance 2

And start putting money aside for Killzone 2.

THIS.

 

[RpgN]

Valkyria Chronicles if you like strategy games

You might want to try Heavenly Sword, if you don't mind the game being short and like action adventure games.

Resistance 2 is a full package. I don't think you can go wrong with this one unless you hate FPSs

PSN:

WipEout HD
Pixeljunk Monsters (there is a demo)
Pixeljunk Eden (same)
Superstardust HD (same)

 

[Linkup]

Demos, they are there for a reason.

 

[Feindflug]

Uncharted
Ninja Gaiden: Sigma
Resistance 1/2

 

[Lince]

Warhawk is all you need, best multiplayer game this gen (and what a looker)

 

[DawsonRules]

These threads make me realize how limited the selection of good games is on the ps3.

 

[Rolf NB]

Isn't one of these still on the first page?

Grab Super Stardust HD and PixelJunk Monsters off PSN.
Download the Siren: Blood Curse demo, too.

If you want to play multiplayer fps, Resistance 2 is a pretty safe bet.

Can we recommend multiplat games?

DEAD SPACE!!
BIOSHOCK!!

Spoiler

DYNASTY WARRIORS GUNDAM!!

 

[Router]

Uncharted.
GT5.
Dead Space.
Resistance 2.

Everything else sucks monkey-dog balls IMO.

 

[Rindain]

I'm a new PS3 owner too--

Is Resistance 1 worth playing through before buying Resistance 2?

These posts make me realize how limited the selection of smart people is on GAF.

Did you mean to write "exclusives", per chance, but couldn't, because there's a pencil stuck in your brain?

Yes.

ya'll are shocked that no one knows how to read, really?

Gee I must have missed the part where the OP said exclusive.

Oh wait he didn't...

[Brashnir]

Pixeljunk Monsters

In that order.

Socom headset bundle
Mirrors Edge

Sorry for posting only PS3 exclusives

 

[Tieno]

That's pretty much it when you already have a 360, Stabby. Have fun.
Well Motorstorm 2 should be excellent too, based on the first one. Rent Heavenly Sword.

 

[KiNeSiS]

Mostly everything has been listed

Socom Confrontation
Saints Row 2
Dark Sector you can get it on the cheap Glaive 6 axis FTW
Burnout Paradise



For a fighter I'd say
Smackdown Vs Raw 09 It's very fun and has enough options to keep you entertained....
How many fighters/wrestling games, do you know with multiple branching story paths for multiple characters?
Also SC4

 

[Shadow780]

Valkyria Chronicles.

BUY IT

 

[KiNeSiS]

Valkyria Chronicles if you like strategy games

How does V.C. stand up to lets say my all time fave strat RPG FF Tactics Ps1?
If it's shoulder to shoulder I'm biting the hook!

 

[RamzaIsCool]

What's up with the recent influx of new PS3 owners? New deals going on or something?

 

[Momar]

Ton of great recommendations in this thread. Just thought I'd add, if "what you've played of Uncharted" refers to the demo, I think I should let you know that the general consensus was the demo was no good and a really poor indicator of the overall quality of the game.

Now people are just listing games instead of recommending.

 

[RadioHeadAche]

Find a game that sounds interesting, look at some reviews/research the title, and then buy or don't buy.

 

[akachan ningen]

Valkyria for sure
Disgaea 3 if you like SRPGs
Resistance 2
Wipeout HD

And play some demos so you can decide for yourself.

 

[Hazaro]

LIST

I... I don't really have anything to add to that.

I'm trying to come to grips with the people who buy a new console or handheld and create these type of threads. Surely these people aren't truly ignorant of another consoles offerings to the point where they have no idea about the library of software available for it?

 

[Defuser]

Valkyria Chronicles
Valkyria Chronicles
Valkyria Chronicles
Valkyria Chronicles

Can't be said enough.

 

[speculawyer]
