Morgoth Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Interesting. While we're on the subject, what games in the back catalogue would you actively recomend? Uncharted is great. GTA 4 a must have, and Condemned 2 recommenable, if you like weird and twisted horror-brawlers. I also played The Darkness and Heavenly Sowrd, but didn't really like those. Yeah and that's it. I only own my PS3 since this August. Rain makes everything better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_i_am Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Bah, no exclusives other than Uncharted then, too bad. I'm bummed that Haze turned out to be a pile of poop too, I was a fan of the timesplitters games on the PS2.

Llyranor Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 I'm not playing another game that David Cage dude touches ever again. EVER AGAIN. I can't say I have much interested in God of War 3, since the series seems to be perceived as more 'shallow' by both NG and DMC fans.

Deadly_Nightshade Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 It looks like Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is getting a film adaptation! "Geez.

Morgoth Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Another PS3 exclusive that looks quite impressive: Demon's Heart But being developed from a Japanese dev, I expect gorgeous art design, but crap gameplay.

Llyranor Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 For those interested in SRPGs ('strategy' RPGs, though they're really tactics-based), Valkyria Chronicles takes a new spin on the genre and does a pretty good job at it. Avoid if you're Kaftan, given the anime overtones, and it's not as manly as manly MGS4. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean seriously, 12 year old girl in mini, armed with rifle and giving orders. How stupid is that? Kudos to the nice cell-shading graphics though. Rain makes everything better.

Nick_i_am Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I too cannot enjoy gameplay without projecting myself into the head of the macho meatball who i'm playing.

Nick_i_am Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Exactly, gameplay be damned, I REFUSE to enjoy a game unless the main character makes up for my own physical shortcomings.

WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Killzone 2 looks amazing. Seriously, console graphics aren't supposed to look this good. So many small details, so much polish... the PS3 is really shaping up. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am?

I want teh kotor 3 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Valkyria Chronicles is in all probability the second best game on the PS3, after the sheer epicness of Disgaea 3.

Now, if Squaresoft was managed by people with an actual brain, they might do a whole game with Amano's art instead of Nomura's "let's appeal to the kids and the idiots" style. But, alas, theirs is the kingdom of the flashy and empty CG movies.

Morgoth Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 All I've seen from FFXIII are CG videos. It's like, they throw out more money for friggin videos than making the actual game.
