Need some Playstation3 game advice

[Dub]

Need some Playstation3 game advice from the experts.

My son is getting a PS3.

What are the "must have" games for this console?

I've picked up NBA 10 Live, Madden 2010, Ratchet&Clank;, The Bigs baseball and Uncharted 2.

I don't think there is such a thing as a must have game as it depends on what you like.

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue for me, I bought a PS3 for that game alone. Epically amazing graphics and the king of car racing games...The full version comes out in the Summer.

Definitely Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Friggin' amazing game.

Definitely Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Friggin' amazing game.

Absolutely... as long as he is old enough (12-14 in my opinion... and knows video violence v. real life)... then this is one of the best games around, especially if you will have the PS3 online.

Uncharted 2 as you mentioned is supposed to be real good, but I have an Xbox 360, so I don't know. TW 10' if he likes golf Assasin's Creed 2 is supposed to be good... lot better than the first, which was cool at first but got repetitive. (same as MW2 - age is an issue)

You picked up some good games. Like others have said, if he likes golf go with Tiger Woods 2010 or if he is old enough, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

[Silzildrummer]

Definitely agree with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2! Actually, I'm going to go play it right now.... see ya guys later.

[bogeyhitter25]

I wish I could go play CoD, but my Xbox Live just ended. This sucks.

I may be picking up a copy of the Modern Warfare 2. I plan on "previewing" it for a while before trying it with him.

Modern warfare 2 is amazing online. Uncharted is a weird game, I liked it, but alot of my buddys hated it, as ts kinds odd.. Also check out borderlands, it's flat out huge, and lots of fun. A must have I feel is fall out 3. The game play is limitless assuming you don't finish the story line. Tho the last two may not be appropriate.

My sn on the psn is bakkalicious if anyone plays mw2

Agreed on Gran turismo 5,they are just class games.Any off the call off duty games,
Modern warfare 1 or 2 and world at war.Probably better off getting the other 2 first before modern warfare 2 though.

Been playing UC2 when time permits.

About halfway through it now.


Going out in a few minutes to get a copy of MW2 as suggested.

Can't wait to jump on this game first thing in the morning.

If you enjoy Uncharted 2, then the first (Drake's Fortune) is also worth a look.

If your son's old enough, then Grand Thef Auto IV can provide several hours of enjoyment.

UC2 and the Modern Warfare games have been interesting...but my son isn't old enough for them.

We've been wearing out the NBA Live 10, though. I can't come close to his scoring and effective defense....I do well just to stay within 20 pts.

We have also been enjoying Street Fighter IV. It really brings back some old memories of playing the original arcade version when I was much younger.

Definitely MLB The Show.

Best baseball game made, and it's not even close.

Hockey fan? NHL 10 is a great game.

Save some money for February the 23rd and get Heavy Rain. Looks to be a really good game.

[The Wilderness]

Post your PSN IDs. I can always use more friends

I would say Fallout 3 and Demon's Souls. Both games blew my mind.

I'll have to look this into this one. I've got to update our wi-fi connectivity at the house so we can take advantage of the online fun with the PS3. I understand you can demo a lot of games online. It will be great to keep the sports games stats updated.

We've been wearing out SFIV and The Bigs. GT5 sounds like a blast, too.

My girlfriend got me a PS3 for Christmas. I recommend:

Tiger Woods 10 (hello, this is a golf forum)
Demon's Souls
Batman Arkham Asylum
Gran Turismo Prologue or 5 when it comes out (I own Formula One Racing)
