Seeing that there is no reccomendation thread. I'm making a topic. I'm looking into getting a PS3 and I have some questions. Is there really a difference between the 40GB and the 80GB, is the extra space on the 80GB worth it, and I saw a Metal Gear Solid 4 Bundle, so I might get that but what are other good games. I've been looking into...

Ninja Gaiden Sigma

Unreal Tournament 3

Ratchet and Clank

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

All help is appreciated and if you feel the need to add to my list of games, feel free.

Ratchet and Clank is worth a buy

Uncharted is worth a rental.

Also, get Resistance. Great game :)

80 gb :... 4 USB , plays ps2 games

40 gb , 2 USB , doesn't play ps2 game

is the extra space on the 80 worth it ?? NO it too much i have a 60gb since jun 2007 the maximum i used was 30 gb

unreal 3 : very sick game...replace it with call of duty 4 or resistance fall of man

ratchet : very good game

Personally, I think you should look online and try to get a hold of the now discontinued 60gb version. It's the version I have, and I wouldn't want it any other way because I can play 100% of my PS2 games. I'm a big RPG fan, so it is crucial to be able to play all the PS2 RPGs on my PS3. All of the games you listed are fantastic games! I own all of those and recommend them to everyone. I'm kind of surprised by how many people overlook Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, because it is one of the most engaging and cinematic games I've played... by far one of my fave PS3 exclusives. You DEFINITELY need to add Warhawk to your list if you are into online gaming. It's a steal @ 39.99.... which actually I think they're still doing the promotion online where you can download the full game for 29.99. (Not sure when it ends) They keep adding amazing new maps and vehicles to the game, which has kept it very fresh. I love the transport-tank vehicle which acts pretty much as a movable "spawn point". That tank can also throw up a forcefield that stops any incoming damage from outside of the bubble. There's nothing quite like driving that sucker right up into the enemy's base, popping up that forcefield, and spawning off a group of players right then and there to raise hell! :)

Are you kidding? Pass on UT3? That game is a blast online.. the fastest pace shooter you'll get on a console. It is unfortunate that UT3 doesn't have a large player base online though. I never get tired of the game though.... maybe it's because I used to play clan match games on UT1 back when it came out in 1999/2000. Some people complain that the game is too fast paced, but those are usually the Nubs. Once you get your reflexes adequately in sync with the speed, the game is godly fun. _________________

I'd wait the extra month for the MGS bundle. Its 80 GB with DS3.

Now, games. Warhawk, Ratchet, Uncharted, Resistance, GTA IV, Oblivion, Motorstorm and Ninja Gaiden. Those are my personal faves.
