Title: PS3 game recommendations
Post by: Narag on June 16, 2008, 07:02:58 PM

So here I am post MGS4 and between purchasing The Fifth Element, 3:10 to Yuma, and PotC blu-rays and Wildarms off of PSN, I feel I've exhausted the system's library of good content. Anything out there that I'm missing that's really worth a look? I've tried various demos for exclusives but all the demos sucked so eyeah.

Heavenly Sword looked interesting but the demo kind of put me off. Short and 30fps.  Uncharted seemed pretty neat but straightfoward. I'm assuming the game proper is a lot better.  How's Ninja Gaiden Sigma? Demo was fun but I keep reading about loading issues and that's not something I'd like to mess with again after NG2.

I'm curious about Folklore and I wish they had more PSX stuff on the store.  :-\

You gentlemen make a fine argument for Sigma. I'll probably snag it.

The short list:

Sigma
Uncharted
Ratchet & Clank

The longer list:
Rock Band
Hot Shots Golf
Burnout Paradise
Super Stardust HD

There are a number of other good games that are multiplatform or worth a weekend's play.

If you're just talking exclusives, then the list is pretty paltry: MGS4 and Uncharted. Thank god that I am a film lover and the PS3 has a great BD player housed within it. Otherwise the PS3 would have been one of my worst purchases ever. I didnt touch it for gaming period between beating Uncharted back in February, and starting MGS4 last week.

Uncharted and Sigma.....and......hmm....Folklore maybe.  Definitely look into Uncharted.  Heavenly Sword is only worth it for Kat or whatever the hell that Bjork character is called.  Conan is better than HS, imo.

If you already got a 360 and are just looking for worthwhile exclusives, PS3 pickings can look a little slim.

Going to back up two games that have been mentioned in here already - Uncharted and NGS are awesome.
