... and I'm ashamed of myself. It's been nothing but a waste of space and money. I'm ready to do something about this. I have zero games right now, so what do you suggest? My friend recommends SOCOM but MGS looks really great too. I have it hooked up to my 50" 1080p plasma. Also, what about Prince of Persia. I played PoP:SoT for PS2 and I loved it at the time.

Uncharted Drankes Fortune is a great game.

So is Time Crisis 4 and Ridge Racer 7 but it seems to be only me who is into those...

Wow are you serrious, I can't believe you have shamed Sony like this man, How long have you had your PS3??

Anyway dude, get Resistance 2 for starters that's the best game out on the PS3 right now that's for sure. And there are plenty of fun games right now, Star Wars the Force Unleashed, Spider-Man Web of Shadows, Resistance 1 and 2, MGS4, **** I even like Motorstorm the first one... Prince of Persia was alright, Dead Space is Dead Awesome lol, Final Fantasy XIII is coming out soon. Man, Your crazy, don't get rid of it or anything, just start giving it some attention brother. Please for the sake of Sony, I promise it might not be at it's peak right now but It will reach it by next year. Time heals everything, give it some time man you'll see.

LITTLE BIG PLANET IS YOUR FIRST BUY! Then get grandtheft auto 4 and Uncharted. Everything else is your choice in the demo section. If your a fan of god of war wait for god of war 3 and if you liked uncharted get the next one comming out sometime

Actually it's not my fault. I recently convinced my father that playing M rated games wont turn me into a mass murderer. I'm almost 16, and now he's letting me get them. Better late than never I suppose.

Man I have friends like this and I think they're stupid. Buy consoles with one game then a year later they have nothing else for it. At least you're ready to give yours a shot though, I'll give you that. A bunch of good games have been out and some you can get for really good prices. I would recommend Assassin's Creed to start off (i think it's only $30). Everything everyone else listed is great. Have fun man.

[QUOTE="Thessassin"]you know theres a sticky for this?Jakesta7
who cares (i hate it when ppl say tht)

Stickies are there for a reason, you know? There's about 3 new "What game should I get?" threads every day. Not only is it a waste of bandwith, it's also really annoying to see people mention the same damn 3-4 games in every damn threads. So it's only normal to keep all the recommendations in the same place.

People list the same "3-4 games in every damn threads" because those are the best ones and everyone likes them. It would be messed up if people were saying stuff like "LAIR IS THE BEST GAME ON THE PS3 IT IS A MUST HAVE YOU HAVE TO BUY IT" Consistency is a good thing, if everybody's opinion is that they're good games then they probably are.

It is true that it gets annoying having all these topics every day, asking the same stuff and getting the same responses. And that's why the sticky is there.

However, as kind as I am, I like to help people in distress. So everybody bashing this guy for not playing his PS3, read the whole thing: he said it was because he's under age and his dad wouldn't let him play M games, but now he's kinda changed his mind.

While you're right about the ratings, keep in mind that most of the major games are rated M, so it's not that simple. I mean, seeing how he's stuck with a Wii (I assume it from his sig) it's no wonder he wants something more "mature". After all, he convinced his dad to finally let him play those, that's something worth mentioning, so I think he deserves his PS3 and also that people give him a break from all this "you haven't played your PS3" thing.

Yeah that's a good point, well, I hope he gets some games and soon, plays through them and has a good time. Otherwise, he could give it to me...

Richmeister15

Well, first of all, there ain't such thing as "the best ones because everybody likes them" since everybody has a different opinion and none of them are facts of life. Also, a person's opinion can't be invalidated because it "goes against the grain" so the concept of "best" is totally abstract.

In any way, best games or not, there's still no need for 95 threads asking the very same question on the very same subject. Like I already said, stickies are there for a reason.

Actually, my brother is telling me he's buying me GTA IV for Christmasand he's already discussed it with my dad. I'm getting it for 360 cause most of my other friends have 360's. That is why I'm looking for PS3 exclusive games.

Thats all of my stuff, sorry I don't know the model numbers.

You have the Sony BDP-S300 and I believe you should use the PS3 as the Blu ray player, or replace that Stand alone player with the Panasonic BD-35, or Sony BDP-S350, the PS3 has Internal Decoding for Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD Master audio that you can use with your AV receiver and convert it to PCM, the latter players have bitstream capability for those codecs, they offer 1.1 and 2.0 profile capability for accessing features such as picture in picture commentary and Internet access. The player your dad is using is very outdated, it lacks decoding for both High resolution audio codecs, no 1.1 or 2.0 profile support and very slow loading times, I wouldn't advise to keep using that player, especially when he has that pioneer AV receiver, that appears to have TrueHD and DTS HD Master audio decoding. Tell your dad that the PS3 has much faster loading times, can access certain special features such as PiP and online, and you can buy a dongle (One from Madcatz) that can work with Universal remotes (It's an IR receiver).

From what I have heard Avoid SOCOM, MGS is the way to go from those two, Uncharted is good, so is LBP. Really depends on your taste.
