I was hoping someone could tell me a game I should get. Im not looking for an FPS right now, so COD and Unreal are out of the question. I was hoping you guys could tell me a good SP game that you had a lot of fun playing for a while. I was looking for an RPG or action/adventure type kinda game with a good story that might keep me busy for a while. I just got my PS3 so im looking for a good game to enjoy.

Note: I had the 360 before I sold it to get my PS3, so I already beat Assassin's Creed on the 360..so leave that out as well :)

Thanks in advance guys!

Everyone is gonna say Uncharted, and rightfully so. It has no multiplayer, but one of the best SP games in a while, and it's action-adventure.

Yeah i've heard some stuff about Uncharted, seems pretty cool. I've also played only a little bit of Oblivion when I had the 360..didn't like it too much, but I only got as far as getting out of the prison thing in the beggining..I think i'll look more into Oblivion and Uncharted. Are there any other games you guys can suggest?

Are you connected to the NET? If you are then go onto the Playstation Network and download demos. I'll tell you I wouldn't have bought half of the games that I own now for PS3 without playing them first and I passed on games I may have bought if I hadn't played them first. Need for Speed Pro Street is a great example. In short in my opinion it sucks. My fav's lately (Non FPS)have been Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Heavenly Sword (great production. Damn close to movie quality), MLB '07 The Show, Ridge Racer 7, Mortal Kombat 2, and that bowling game I downloadedfrom the PSN. What fun it is. Better than Wii SPorts bowling in my opinion. My next game is going to be Burnout Paradise. I am a HUGE fan of the franchise. I still play my Burnout 3. By the way is your screen name Baseball related???

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I also have another question, i was a previous PS2 owner but I never got into the Ratchet and Clank games, although they did look fun, i just never bought one for some reason. Do I need to play the first couple that came out on the ps2 in order to understand whats going on in the next one? Thanks again!

No you don't. I downloaded the Demo off of the PSN and had a lot of fun with it. If you are connected to the NET I highly recommend to check out all of the FREE demos' from the Playstation Network. Ratchet and Clank is on there.

I would choose between Uncharted, Rachet and Clank, or Heavenly sword.

P.S. Everyone should go get The Orange Box those gamesare great and at a great price.;)

Based on what I've seen they really introduce you to the style of game and the main characters. It's not quite the same as Sonic the Hedgehog or Super Mario Brothers Sequels where you almost always have the same nemesis in a different world with added gameplay. Read the reviews of the previous ones to form your own opinion or pick them up used and cheap from Gamestop.

The games do not link in any meaningful way. Though without playing the 1st game you dont get to see how R&C found eachother. plus ypu dont get the character history like captian quark, who is in each game. Plus in some games there will be small clips or bits showing bad guys you have defeated. But its not enough to have to play them all just to understand the new one.

Plus get COD 4, I jsut got it, the first mission was amazing! I am not far in the game but it is honestly the best shooter I have playerd in ages, maybe the best ever. Better than R6 V. Way better than halo 3. Stunning visuals and gameplay. And it is always intense and immersive.

If you like FPSes

Unreal Tournament 3 and The Orange Box are pretty damn sweet. Folklore is also a pretty good action adventure/RPG. Heavenly Sword is amazing, but incredibly short. Good beatemup game but very short like I said.

PAIN is also pretty nice. If you've ever played the flash games that use physics to hurt people and watch how the scores rack up, this is like that.

Get Rachet and Clank. Its gotta be the best platformer I've played on the PS3, and you don't need to play any previous ones to understand this one. Its actually the beginning of a new saga called Future, for the series.

I am sorry, I dont care what you think, but you NEED to get CoD 4. its SP may be short on easy and medium, but just play hardened. This game is awesome and so intence, at least try it out or rent it. The multiplayer is just as good, which is saying a lot.
