    PS3 - What Games? thread

    So, what am I missing out on by using the PS3 as merely a BluRay player, and my 360 for games?

    *Ahem*

    This is just a list of exclusives that I own (Metacritic score in []):

    • Uncharted [88]
    • Uncharted 2 [96] (undisputed 2009 GOTY)
    • Killzone 2 [91] (sequel with 3D support this year)
    • LittleBigPlanet [95] (2008 GOTY)
    • Metal Gear Solid 4 [94]
    • Valkyria Chronicles [86]
    • God of War Collection [91] (I hadn't played these on PS2, so it was a must-buy for me)
    • God of War 3 [93]
    • Resistance 1 & 2 [86, 87]
    • Heavy Rain [87] (might not be your cup of tea, but certainly something different)

    And on PSN - WipeOut HD, Superstardust HD, Flower, Trine...

    Exclusives that I don't own, but are highly rated - Demon's Souls, Wipeout HD Fury, Ratchet & Clank series, inFamous, Motorstorm, Pixeljunk series, Modnation Racers...

    Upcoming exclusives - FFXIII Versus, FFIV, The Last Guardian, Agent, LittleBigPlanet 2...


    *and breeeeeathe out*

    No games on the PS3?! I fart in the face of anyone that preaches this nonsense

    Ratchet & Clank.

    That's it, but they are epically good games.

    Don't get resistance 1 or 2 whatever you do though, it's like going back to the 90s....

    Everyone has pretty much covered the good ones, Uncharted 1/2 are a must have for a PS3 owner

    Well, it is like a 90s shooter though isn't it? (and I only really play shooters)...tried both of them for fairness, both cack-in-a-basket
    I love FPS's and have probably played the majority but these were just dire...oh, and Killzone 2 is over-rated an all!

    IYO, fair enough - but again, Metacritic > you

    Not exactly sure what you mean by "90's shooter". FPS is FPS afaic, you either do it right, or do it wrong. R2 especially was excellent in both gameplay and graphics - underrated if anything, IMO. Likewise KZ2!

    Gameplay style in first person shooters can date a game. He's right, Resistance has many hallmarks of a post-Half-Life-era game.

    Metacritic, pfft! I AM the law! Oh wait, that's Judge Dredd not me...

    I mean in terms of gameplay (spot on directhex) and graphics, I had heard good things & was totally underwhelmed by gamplay, originality & graphics, it was just all (IMO) so dated
    Killzone for different reasons, beautiful graphics but the input lag was painful (patched version) & I got a bit bored after a while, did I mention input lag?

    Now, Blue Toad Murder Files, there's a fun game (although only upto the 2nd one so far!) Passes the time nicely & has better graphics than Resistance

    Re: PS3 - What Games? thread

    I hated the demo of Resistance 1 tbh, never tried Resistance 2.

    Mind you, I also hated MGS4, so maybe I'm just out of touch.

    LittleBigPlanet is a bit overrated I thought... it's fairly fun, and it's one of only two games my girlfriend will play on the PS3 (Buzz Quiz being the other). So yeah, it has its plus points but I never sit down and think "I'd like to play LBP now."
