I am back in America for the holidays, nom nom nomming cake and pie and becoming your typical Western fatty. I am up 4lb so there's way more of me to love. Anyhoo, whenever I walk into Best Buy or something of the sort I'm taken aback by their large selection of PS3 titles, and remind myself how wonderful it is that the the PS3 is all region free and shit.

That being said, are there ANY PS3 games that aren't Ratchet or Uncharted that are recommendable to someone who already has a 360?

(I saw giant piles of Rock Band and GH3, and asked the Clerk Guy if any of them were for 360, and he replied that the entire remaining stock of Rock Band and GH3 games/accessories were all for PS3 and had been sitting there all December and nobody was buying them)

Resistance? Heavenly Sword? UT3?

Resistance = Beat it, snore
Heavenly Sword = 15fps turd
UT3 = Hmmm this might be worth a shot. The fact that I'll be able to use PC mods is VERY attractive to me. I may actually pick this up over the eventual 360 one.

you're a 15fps turd

HS didn't feel 15fps at all... except maybe the last level where you're on the battlefield

Honestly the only thing that's coming to mind is Ninja Gaiden Sigma, and even then I have some reservations in recommending it.

I actually had more fun watching the cutscenes in Heavenly Sword than I did playing it.

Except for the other parts of the game when it was 10fps

Ship now, patch later!

I just expanded my PS3 library today with The Shining, Ratatouille, and Blade Runner

Ratatouille looks absolutely incredible. BR .

Demi - why are you such a hateful "plastic PS3 fan" ?

Some of us were there day 1. Day 1 for the hardware, and day 1 for every major release.
Why do you have to go hating on the real PS3 fans ?

You have a habit of buying things and not touching them though (you just said you haven't touched Folklore), being there "day 1" is irrelevant

demi · « **Reply #14 on:** December 25, 2007, 08:58:49 PM »

i think you're just posting now to read yourself. you shouldn't worry about me, and play a game. like Folklore.

Do they have to be system-exclusive, or would any game do?

Can we get some more of you brainwashed cockslobbers in here so i can stop using the lucky dip option?

thank you, you just reminded me that I have a box of fun dip behind me that I won at chuck e' cheeses yesterday and I am in the mood for something sweet.

sho, I don't know if it's your type of game but you can try to track down the limited edition of Stranglehold (I see the game on shelves still) since it comes with the Bluray version of Hardboiled. game felt repetitive but dumb fun and the movie has to be good and I don't imagine it'll cost more than $30 these days. make sure it's the limited edition though.

drohne · « **Reply #17 on:** December 25, 2007, 09:36:56 PM »

apparently the version of hard boiled on that disc has audio sync issues. it's like $40 at best buy, and i was thinking of buying it, but fuck that. gj midway

drohne · « **Reply #18 on:** December 25, 2007, 09:46:57 PM »

i don't remember the exact details, but apparently midway weren't supplied with a remastered audio track to go with the remastered video, and they had to use some old audio track that didn't sync perfectly

Finished it on 360 months ago, fun little game imho

Really the only thing that comes to mind is Unreal Tournament III. Can't think of anything else worthwhile that hasn't come out in Japan already.

I need to play UT3 already, but damn it every time I'm about to, I end up throwing Halo 3 into the 360 instead.

Cormacaroni · « **Reply #21 on:** December 26, 2007, 07:43:32 AM »

why is Ninja Gaiden Sigma being recommended as a US game that Sho couldn't buy in glorious Nippon?

not that he would play it anyway, given that he played God of War on Easy ho ho ho

I remember dcharlie from the dc.net days (or A dcharlie at least
