dont_do_it_doug. Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 PS3 slim 160gb - £164.99. Sainsburys in store and online. Just bought mine. Any great PS3 exclusives I need to get? Picking up Heavy Rain, inFamous and Journey to start me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 2, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted April 2, 2012 Sounds like you've got yourself a bit of a bargain there! I wouldn't bother with inFamous if I were you, btu I suppose it's personal preference. I thought it was pretty average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Dead Space 1 is quality. The Uncharted trilogy would also be very high on my list of must-haves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaGoMarching Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 My PS3 gathers dust, poor thing is only used for streaming from my pc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 bargain, agree with uncharted and the comment about infamous id add resistence and MAG to the list of exclusives not worth bothering with too, but try god of war, killzone, yakuza, twisted metal, id also give little big planet and the rachet and clank games a go even if you think they wont be your type of thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Get Demon's Souls. It's a PS3 exclusive but it was so popular that they made the next game (Dark Souls) on both PS3 and Xbox 360. Both are great games. Aside from that, as jacketspuds says, get the Uncharted trilogy (although the first one has a few too many QTE's for my liking). Other ones you might want to consider are MGS 4 and the MGS HD collection, the Ico & Shadow of the Colossus HD Collection and Gran Turismo 5. I quite like Infamous, I'd recommend it. It must be pretty cheap by now since it's a few years old and has a sequel out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu_The_Villan Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 God of War 3 is about as good as it gets on PS3. Great game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Valkyria Chronicles and Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket Powered Battle Cars (PSN) are the best PS3 exclusives iirc ^__^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I want to play GOW3 again.. infact, I want the GOW HD games.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted April 2, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted April 2, 2012 God of War 3 is worth having just to gawp at. It's also pretty cheap these days. Pretty third person actioner with a fair amount of gore and good combat. Uncharted series is quite well held but the first is fairly old now and quite weak on the whole, probably worth just jumping into the second, fairly cheap too now and usually regarded as the best in the series. Personally, I don't get why people think they're fantastic, but hey. If you liked the Metal Gear series on the PS1/2, 4 is a must. But it's definitely an acquired taste and it would be perhaps the worst game to start a series with in the history of videogame franchises, because it barely makes sense when you know whats happening, if it was your first game you'd not have a dicky bird. Killzone 2 and 3 are pretty, both are decent enough shooters but nothing thats going to blow your mind. Same can be said of Resistance series really. Infamous and Infamous 2 are cool enough, imagine a reasonably small scope open world with super power-y stuff. Again, cheap now. Heavy Rain is a unique experience, 'experience' being the best word for it I think, it's not like any other game, more like an interactive movie. Can be used with Move as well, if proto-Wii flailing about floats your boat. Other than that PS3 exclusives run a little dry for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phumfeinz Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Uncharted is crap, don't bother. Little Big Planet 2 is good, and MGS4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont_do_it_doug. Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 Cheers fellas. Found it tough to find anything mentioned in the used game section, did pick up MGS4 which had totally slipped my mind as well as Red Dead Redemption which I've wanted to play for yonks. Think GOW3 sounds up my street as well as Dark Souls. Not actually played anything yet, resisting till my new monitor comes on Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Get the HD GOW 1 & 2 first as the God of War series is one massive trilogy that works so well together. Plus when you do finally get to GOW 3 it makes is just that little bit more amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 3, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted April 3, 2012 I'm intrigued by GOW. One of those games I've liked the look of but never got round to buying or playing. May give it a go myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I'm assured te God of War games are good but I don't really like hack 'n slash games in general and I absolutely detest QTE's which seem to be pretty frequent in these games. Different strokes and all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different strokes and all that. The QTE's aren't ridiculously intrusive though, they are implemented very well into the flow of the game imo. They are pretty short-lived too, which is always a bonus. I'm not a big fan of the hack 'n' slash genre either, but I absolutely adored GoW III. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
