You haven't truly experienced the PS3 if you haven't beaten Demon's Souls at least once. Also inFamous and Valkyria Chronicles are pretty excellent.

Hey man...

You really shouldn't say things like this. It's how people get mad at you when they feel suckered into purchases. The power of suggestion should be respected, because some folk can't think for themselves. That game is really for fans of the genre only, it's rather hardcore. Your other two are good, though. Anyone can pick-up play "InFAMOUS" at least for a little while, and "Valkyria" is really accessible too, ofr it's involvement... But "Demon's Souls" has brought seasoned gamers to tears...

:)

True enough, but I am glad other gamers on these forums "suckered" me into getting Demon's Souls. I had a love/hate relationship with the game, but I definitely got my money's worth out of it. So really, I guess I owe a thank you to everyone on this board who got me interested in Demon's Souls. Great game. Now inFamous, on the other hand... wish I hadn't been "suckered". :P

Infamous is an awesome game. Great graphics and gameplay aside, the storyline is one of the best I've encountered, especially within its genre. I hope you played it all the way through. Like Demon's Souls, it takes a while before the game really blossoms. Infamous is a must buy for any PS3 owner.

Well, I will not buy Resistance 2 then, many said negatives about it. I rather go for Heavy rain, Demon's souls, Infamous and MGS4 for now.

Somehow, LBP doesn't interest me at all.

I recently bought a PS3 with 3 games Killzone2, GOW3 and Uncharted2.

I also own a good PC gaming rig and an XBOX360. Well, overall I like PS3. i'm still not used to its gamepad and prefer XBOX's gamepad more, it just doesn't feel comfortable like XBOX, but the main reason for buying a console is how it's games are in terms of quality.

I begin with Killzone2, It's just outright amazing, I couldn't expect it to be so good. It's graphics are excellent, you can not still watch a console game up close like PC and if you do it looks blurry and low res, but if you take your distance from the HDTV, it's amazing. Gameplay is really satisfying too.

Now onto uncharted2, I was disappointed, mainly because it was praised for it's graphics, it's not good atl all in terms of graphics, the lightning is cheap, low res textures are everywhere, only facial animations are good and those are cutscenes, might as well be pre-rendered movies. gameplay here is just like a polished tomb raider game, which is not so much. This game getting a graphics award on all platforms is just not right.

GOW3, the graphics and gamplay are superb, very excellent. It's just what it's advertised to be.

I intend to buy the following games also: heavy rain, resistance2 and MGS4.

Do you guys have any suggestion on what games i should try? Also your input my on my ramblings is quite welcome :D

I totally disagree with you when you speak about Uncharted 2 but I am not getting into that. Anyway I am sure you will enjoy Heavy Rain, one of the best games of the year.

Terrible is a horrible exaggeration. I didn't think it was a bad game, it's just a different flavor. Part 2 didn't really do anything much different from 1 is all. It had slightly better graphics, ran smoothly, and some new weapons. In the end it's just an FPS. The game handles a ridiculous number of enemies onscreen at once and the weapons are very unique and fun and it's VERY fast paced. Online multiplayer was pretty typical of most FPS. The story definitely hit a wall for me though--A shame really. If you're gonna play an FPS for the PS3, Killzone 2 was definitely the best choice IMO. The body physics when shooting people are sublime in Killzone 2. R2, not so much. LittleBigPlanet isn't my type of game either, but you have to play some of the custom content created by users and the stuff is awesome. I mean it's ridiculous! Another necessity is actually playing with someone. Playing LBP by yourself isn't nearly as enjoyable...and beer helps too. It's not a game I crave, but when I actually play it with friends it's always a good time.
