I want to know what games I should get. I'm planning on getting Resistance and VF5 ,but I already have a 360 so I have Rainbow 6 Vegas and COD 3 and have owned most of the EA Sports games so are there any other must haves I should know about? Also, is God of War 2 backwards compatible and does it play in HD?

God of war 2 will play in 720p on the PS3. Well, if you're getting PS3 next week then you can wait for motorstorm. That's going to be in everybody's PS3 on it's laucnh day.

Yes you can play GOW2 on the PS3 it plays in 480p. And don't forget to check out Motorstorm it looks like it will be a blast to play online.

I'd pick up Ridge Racer 7 too, I thought it was a pretty good game. But then again, I am a huge RR fan, but you should like it, it has unique racing characteristics.

Go for RR7, don't believe the FUD, it's the best one yet. Very slick and enough customisation to break up the races.

Has a great online interface too, pretty unique with intuitive icons to show the status of various setup options.

Can't wait for Euro launch so I can really dig into it. 8)

It actually only supports 480p. If you got the 720p from IGN, they corrected the mistake later in the article I believe.

Awesome the game looks sick hopefully it plays as good as it looks. Are you able to download the retro games yet because I saw Mortal Kombat 2 is coming out for it , and does anyone know how much these games cost?
