So can anyone tell me of any decent EXCLUSIVE games that are worth getting ?

I say exclusive because i allready own an XBOX360. I mainly want it for the blu ray, but thought a PS3 would be better rather than just getting a blu ray player.

All the PS3 exclusives are Amazing, I don't know where to even begin...

Metal Gear Solid 4 God of War Uncharted Killzone Infamous ...and only if your into that sort of thing Final Fantasy XIII (starts very slow, but develops nicely) Gran Turismo 5 (highly underated IMO)

Actually..if he hasn't played any of the previous MGS games, then he shouldn't get MGS4 first. It's more enjoyable if you've played the previous ones because if you don't, then you will have no idea on what the heck is happening. I'd say get Uncharted 2 first. And then get Heavy Rain. Heavy Rain is a truly unique gaming experience unlike any other. You need to get it.

True

I've never played any of the MGSs in my life, and I got to admit... the entire game I was like: "Why is snake so F'N old":P

but still, MGS4 is a masterpiece everyone should enjoy.

If MGS is not your cup of tea, that's fine but you shouldn't miss out on games like: Uncharted 1 & 2, Heavy Rain, Infamous, and of course the God of War series.

Why don't you tell us what games you like for the 360, that way we can suggest something similar from the PS3 exclusives? Who knows you might enjoy LBP and Modnation Racers too!

I too didn't play any MGS games prior to 4, but fortunately I downloaded the MGS database before getting too involved in the game. Or someone could just look up what happened in previous games on wikipedia or something.

I would like to second the mention of Ratchet and Clank. Age rating doesn't take away from a game being great. Killzone is also a pretty good game if you enjoy FPS games.

The PS3 has the most exclusives of any system. All you have to doe is go to gamestop.com and click on *PS3 games* and *view all* and look through to see them all. Also *coming soon* will show you all the ones coming up over the next 12 months.

he has a less chance of liking MGS 4 the less he knows about it. it's really not that great. the PS3 exclusives to play are Heavy Rain, Killzone 2 and Demon's souls.

You can, however not all of them. There's a decent selection of PS1 games but they only just started putting PS2 games up. There's God of War 1 & 2 and the Prince of Persia trilogy atm, I don't think there's a lot else.

There are enough games on the system to be worth your time. If you are going to buy something, buy it for what its primary function is.

You can pick up cool games like Ratchet and Clank, Resistance, Killzone 2, Infamous, Uncharted 1 and Demon's Souls for cheap. There is also Uncharted 2, Heavy Rain, Yakuza 3, God of War 3, 3D Dot Game Heroes, and Modnation Racers out.

Next year there is going to be a lot of game

Resistance 3

Killzone 3

Ratchet and Clank All 4 1

Socom 4

Yakuza 4

Little Big Planet 2

Motorstorm Apocalypse

The Last Guardian

Twisted Metal

Ar Tonelco 3

Disgaea 4

Team Ico Collection

Infamous 2

That's 13 games coming next year that we know about.

If you are into fighters, I would get them on PS3 because of the D-pad.

The reason why some people are being hostile is because people come in here every week and ask if the PS3 is worth it, or what are the exclusives. No one ever asks this of the other systems, so they think you are bad mouthing the system. The system has been out 4 years and still gets crapped just because of how it lauched.

I suppose thats fair enough. Personally ive never even used the system, so I cant say much about it, other than im interested in buying one. Ive looked at a couple of games like Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2 which take my fancy. I also like the fact it has blu ray playback and the fact you can download PS1 games is really quite an interesting idea.

You should get MGS4 first, then Uncharted 1 & 2. Include Demon's Souls if you'd like a challenge, GT5 if you're a racing game fan, and MAG if you'd like to experience 256-player matches. There's a lot of choices, so you'll have no difficulty in choosing great games to play.

And asking people their opinions about GAMES definitely isn't considered research... definitely not. POPEYE1716 is too brilliant for his own good. And in answer to your other questions, Chris: you can download PS1 games. I don't think to many PS2 titles are available for download yet though I could be wrong.

I too am 21 and enjoy playing R&C. In fact I am currently playing A Crack In Time right now. One of the best games in my collection. There's nothing wrong with a little cartoon warfare.

You should try out MGS4, its an amazing game, even if you dont like stealth games, because you can play it like a third person shooter like I did. I dont like stealth games much either, so MGS4 was the first MGS I have bought, and I was blown away how good it is. Probably the best ps3 game to date in my opinion, never thought i d say that, considering I tried MGS games on the ps2 and didnt like them...

The exclusives you MUST buy:

MGS4

Both Ratchet and Clank games (really entertaining and funny games, makes you glad:) )

Infamous(gets better and better,great story)

Killzone 2( a little overrated, but a well polished fps)

Uncharted 1 and 2( feels like your playing blockbuster movies)

Little Big Planet ( no point in buying the first one now, wait for the second)

Demons Souls(really hard, but very addictive because you feel you have acomplished something when you kill the bosses)

Valkyria Chronicles (overlooked,unique game which draws you in)

Heavy Rain (an emotional journey, one of a kind)

GT5 (even if the layout is oldfashioned, its still the best car simulator)

God of War 3, GoW Collection

Sly collection

Others you may consider:

Resistance 1 and 2( pretty average if you ask me, but many like them)

Wipeout HD

Modnation racers

Heavenly Sword

Folklore
