If you're looking for open-world RPGs go for the fallout series. If you don't mind some linear gameplay get Final Fantasy XIII.

As for FPS's Killzone delivers quite well along with the Resistance series.

A must play is the third person shooter Uncharted series. I must say these games are incredible. You really need to play them.

I've just completed my Master's coursework and took my Master's exam last Tuesday, upon receiving the results (fingers crossed for a Pass) my g/f will be buying me a PS3 (I know, right?).

And since I've spurned gaming for so long, I want to know where to start. I'll likely cruise the local used game store and probably join Gamefly.

What say ye!?

metal gear solid 4 - it's super cheap now so there isn't any reason not to.
uncharted - they're both great.
killzone 2 - great shooter, and the sequel comes out in feb. no real wait involved there.
dead space - great horror game, and the sequel comes out late january.

mass effect 2 is coming out for ps3 in like two days and i'll be picking that up for sure.

Just acquire a PS3 this month..let's just say a dream came tru

for now Soul Calibur is ok, lots of fun , freedom and technical skills are recommended...

Maybe I'll get my favourite fight game later, Tekken !!

For now, I will reconsider my point of view for FFXIII, linear you said 747Music ?

Cool!

You should be able to find Tekken 6 for really cheap. I picked it up brand new for only $20.

Once you get your PS3 up and online give us your PSN handle.

So Killzone 3 came out on Tuesday. I had it pre-ordered. The graphics are amazing. Anyone else playing this one?

After Killzone 3 and Mass Effect 2 I'm gonna play some Dead Space 2.

like, what's it like?

Well the campaign was pretty decent, but short, as seems to be the pattern of all new FPS's these days. The multiplayer is really fun and polished. Lots of stuff to earn and achieve. It's definitely an improvement over Killzone 2. The controls are a bit lighter.

Bottom line: worth the buy if you're the kinda person who likes multiplayer FPS's. Otherwise, rent it.

That would be cool. But no, I haven't encountered it... yet...

Anyways, I just became a Playstation Plus Member. I did it mainly because of the new PSN feature where you can put some of your saved game files on to Sony's servers to store. So if your HDD goes, you've got it backed up. Also if you wanna play your own saved game on someone else's PS3, you just have to log in with your own PSN account and boom! There are your saved games.

Don't know if everyone knew this already, but I didn't. There will be reissue/remaster of Ico and Shadow of the Colossus in HD for the PS3. Scheduled for release this year. Good news, I've always wanted to play Ico.

Available for preorder on Amazon.

Yeah, this is really old news. I'll definitely be picking this up though. I've got them both for PS2, but I haven't beaten either of them, so I'm exited for the HD remake.

I've been so caught up with playing it I forgot to mention...I bought a PS3 a month ago!! Gamertag is P420_Music, add away...especially if you have Portal 2, just beat the single player and looking to play co-op with someone, anyone lol

It was supposed to come out this spring but got delayed to November!

Obviously so it builds hype up for The Last Guardian. I hate getting my hopes up for a game then it gets delayed. WHY DEVELOPERS MUST YOU DO THIS TO US.
