I wanna add NBA Jam,, Pure, Test Drive Unlimited 2 and Split Second to the list

Blazed

I'll add them, is NBA Jam availabe on disc? Or is it just downlable? If it's only on PSN then I'll add it to that section once I get that together.

Excellent thread for all the great info. ;)

The PlayStation 3 was first released in Japan on November 11, 2006 at 07:00. According to Media Create, 81,639 PS3 systems were sold within 24 hours of its introduction in Japan. Soon after its release in Japan, the PS3 was released in North America on November 17, 2006. Reports of violence surrounding the release of the PS3 include a customer shot, campers robbed at gunpoint, customers shot in a drive-by shooting with BB guns, and 60 campers fighting over 10 systems.Necrolusting

Ok? Thanks for that information :P

Some thoughts:

I feel like if you have Star Ocean on there, then Ar Tonelico deserves a mention as well

Orange Box on consoles with no Valve support isn't worth recommending

Dead online communities with hackers? BC, BC2, MW, MW2, etc.

SSF IV AE over SSF IV

T6 is essentially an upscaled HD version of T5 on PS2

SFxT is considered broken by the community as it currently stands

Poorly optimized HD collections: Splinter Cell, PoP, ZoE

I would also recommend Sports Champion (not sure if already on), El Shaddai, Ace Combat: Assault Horizon, Star Wars: The Forced Unleashed (a fantastic side story to the Star Wars saga without all the baggages)

Does MGS4 have as many cutscenes as people say? Does it feel like it gets in the way of the game play? Also, what do you recommend for a new PS3 player: Red Dead or the Uncharted series first?! biggest_loser

It does have a lot of cutscenes, but if you're a fan of previous MGS games then you will be too immersed in the story to care. It's a great game. If you're a new PS3 player I would go with the Uncharted games first. Red Dead is a great game though, but will take more time to complete.

help me decide please:

Rayman HD, I Am Alive, Babel Rising or Expendables 2 ?

Is Darksiders 2 worth buying? I liked the first one quite alot but D2 seems to be a bit different.

I'd probably go with I Am Alive.

I haven't played it yet but I was just watching KevinV play it on the Wii U during their livestream and it seems solid. If you can get it as a deal (have been seeing it for $30 or less for Black Friday) I would go for it. I may just pick it up as well.

I went along and just bought it, the "Death Rides Pack" that is. Arguls Tomb from the videos ive seen doesnt appeal to me.

I've had Borderlands 1 for a long time now but when my ps3 got ylod and lost my progress I never got back to it. Before a couple of days I bought BL2 very cheap from amazon and I consider buying the season pass as well, but first I'm planning on finishing Borderlands 1 . My question is if it's worth it to purchase all of the BL1 DLC? (I have heard that all of it is spectacular, except mad moxxi that is crap)

great thread!! this makes me sad because there are just too many games in need to get and play!!!:cry:

What are some of the best games of last year?

What are some of the best games of last year?

Solid_Link22

I'd recommend these, from first to last:

• Dark Souls
• Batman Arkham City
• Deus Ex Human Revolution
• Uncharted 3
• LA Noire (Sort of a hit or miss with this one, I enjoyed it though)
• Dead Space 2

Out of the games I've played, haven't played Portal 2 or Skyrim yet and those seem to get a lot of praise.

Good choice, I actually just recently played through that and enjoyed every second. Have fun! :)

I'm considering getting a game tomorrow for my PS3. Right now I'm looking at Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction or Resistance 3. The second one is based off of me wanting to give FPS games a second chance since I haven't really played them or had any interest in them since Golden Eye on N64. I'm attracted to the creative upgradable weapons. Any other suggestion is welcome.

the kind of games I absolutely loved

-Both Batman Arkham Games

-Devil May Cry 4

-Both Darksiders

-Rayman Origins

-both inFAMOUS games

-Super Street Fighter IV

Greatly disliked

-Uncharted 2

-Assassin's Creed II

why isnt uncharted a ps3 saga?

why isnt there a ps3 exclusive group of games?

otherwise...great thread

ratchet and clank....since the games you loved include infamous and rayman

They haven't released a saga of Uncharted yet, give it time probably soon. I dunno I guess I just grouped them with the other games. You thinkt here should be a whole seperate section for exclusives?

Thank you very much for this. There are a lot of games I did not know or did not know how good or bad they are. Borrizee

You're welcome, glad you found it usefull!

Now that would be very useful quick search for PS3 owners who are looking for exclusive only. BTW, where is Way of The Samurai 4? Does it have to be scored higher than 7?

games like mass effect and assassins creed can also be played on pc and xbox 360. games like god of war, uncharted, heavy rain,infamous, ratchet and clank, sly cooper etc. are what set the ps3 apart.
