Just got a PS3... now what?

Post by casualsax3 »

So I got a PS3, and picked up Little Big Planet. I'm going to eventually get MGS4, and Valkyria Chronicles. Anything else worth looking at?

uncharted (only gripe is headshots are pretty much required)
motor storm (either, although pacific rift is the larger game. but the first motor storm plus dlc still probably costs less than pacific rift)
killzone 2
ratchet and clank (if that's your thing)

possibly folklore (i've only played both characters' prologues, but they seemed fun)

on blu-ray:
planet earth
speed racer (seriously, it's awesome in HD)
anything from pixar
sleeping beauty
casino royale / quantum of solace

if you like importing, and you're in a region that plays japanese things, FF:AC for a japanese FFXIII demo.

i know they have more exclusives, but outside of what you own and has already been suggested, that should about complete the list. i'm also assuming you don't need to be told about multi-plat games like fallout3 or gta4.

+1 for the following:
ratchet & clank
uncharted
sf4
valkyria chronicles

add to the list:
burnout paradise (disc or psn)
megaman 9 (psn)
super stardust hd (psn)
pain (psn) (mindless drunk party fun, boring after 25 mins if you're alone)
Why yes, my shift key *IS* broken.

I read in another forum that you can download the game "Rag Doll Kung Fu" for free and also get a free apartment for the PS Home system (or whatever that might be called). However, the offer might just be valid for this week and US systems only.

So Run! Run! Hurry! Hurry! Run! Run!
What?

I only got it because the game was developed by the old phantasy star and the Skies of Arcadia team.

Soul Calibur 4 if you're into fighting games. If you like RPGs and can stand the childish look, Eternal Sonata doesn't suck so far.

A lot of those listed have PC versions as well such as Devil May Cry 4, Mirror's Edge, etc. Some will have PC versions later, surprisingly SF4 is one of them. I always prefer to have the PC version of a game... much more freedom that way to mod it or whatever, not to mention a proper resolution as opposed to 1280x720 stretched out. Only certain cut scenes and things like that are ever 1920x1080, otherwise pretty much everything is 720p.

I almost forgot, be prepared to pay for DLC BS if you want to get all the missions in Valkyria Chronicles. $5 per new mission, and $5 if you want jackass mode or whatever. As a bonus, you'll be charged taxes as well, huzzah.
