ps3 worth buying? What are the best games for it? - Page 2

I just bought a PS3 this last week. Well worth the money imo. Uncharted 2 is an amazing game, graphics are top notch and so is game play. It really is like playing through a movie. Tekken 6 for your fighting games, plus theres TONS of other great games out now and more upcoming.

Assassins Creed II
Dead Rising 2
Dante's Inferno
new GTA
GoW III

tons great of games


Also to note the 120gig version of the PS3 is NOT backwards compatible to PS2

^^Right, only the first-gen PS3s (the 40GB and 60GB) are backwards-compatible. You can only find those on eBay now. I switched my 360 for a PS3 after too many 360 failures, and I haven't looked back. Rundown of the better games I've played: -LittleBigPlanet is fun and kitchy with Super Mario gameplay. Stephen Fry does incredible voice work and the game has charm to it. The user-generated content is great. One of the best on the console. -The PS Network has some visually stunning games: PixelJunk Eden, Flower, Everyday Shooter, Echochrome. These games all cost $10 or less, and Eden and Flower are must-plays (in my opinion). -I've heard great things about Demon's Souls. Brian and dusty love it and they have great taste in games so I'm eager to check it out. -MGS4 and Uncharted 2 are Michael Bay movies, for better or worse. Spectacular pieces, summer-movie stories but nothing new. MGS4 has slightly more complex gameplay; both have cult multiplayer followings (UC2 plays like Quake or Unreal, MGS4 plays closer to airsoft/paintball). There are also a number of sequels coming out (Assassin's Creed 2, God of War 3, Dead Rising 2) which may or may not be your taste...demos will appear on PSN, I'm sure. I'm not a quality whore but I feel the PS3 upscales DVDs just fine. Blu-Ray is great on it, and PS3 also recently obtained Netflix support (if you'd like to stream to your TV).

demon's souls is worth the purchase of the console.

That's not fair to either. Uncharted 2 is this generation's answer to Tomb Raider, whereas MGS4 is a fantastic close to one of the best video game franchise of all time. The latter alone makes buying a PS3 worthwhile, IMO.

Not to take over the thread, but: For UC2, watch the "Making of" featurettes. The game was designed with action in mind. The closest comparable to UC2 is actually Syphon Filter (weapon-based gameplay, some stealth elements, blockbuster movie plot and sequences). Tomb Raider wasn't as action-dense as UC2, and the two only share locations (ruins, ancient cities) and motivation (treasure-hunting). MGS4 has great gameplay but some glaring issues. The game is easy and plot-driven (whereas games should be gameplay-driven), the gameplay is too complex (shooting down your gun sight requires FOUR buttons), and the story is ridiculous by non-fan standards. I am a fan of Metal Gear and I bought a PS3 for MGS4, but my copy is long-gone. At least multiplayer is fun.

I remember playing the original SF on PSX.. good old days. I used TR as a comparison partly due to the magnitude of its success/influence.

There was a pretty lengthy discussion regarding MGS4 in the other video games thread. Can read over it if you're interested, breakz. Im a huge MGS fanboy, and I loved MGS4 as well.
