Default Need help with ps3 games

ok here it goes, I am looking at the upcoming releases for the ps3 for the next couple of months and unfortunatly for my wallet all the games that I want are coming out around the same time. I do not want to buy all these games so i thought i would ask you guys what 2 out of the 4 games i list you would purchase thanks

1.Fallout 3 10/07/08
2. Star Wars: Force Unleashed 9/16/08
3. Guitar Hero World Tour 10/26/08
4. Madden 2009 Already out

now my reasoning for why I want these games

1. Fallout 3-never played the other games but I am told it is like a futuristic Elder Scrolls Oblivion (one of my favorite games)

2. Star Wars. not a big fan of Knight of the old republic but I liked the battlefront games and this kind of looks like a mix of both of them. (I hope it is nothing like Mass Effect i hate that game)

3. Guitar Hero World Tour. I have Guitar hero 2 and 3 and Rock band, They are fun games but my favorite band (system of a down) isnt in any of them
But guitar hero 4 has confirmed "BYOB" one of my favorite songs by them and i like getting together with my friends drunk and pretending we know how to sing and play the guitar

4. Madden 2009. i have played since Madden 1995 in between played the 2k series (i really like) and have bought these games every year not necessairly because i like them but because it became like a tradition. My problem is I play this game for like a week and then i want to push it to the side and gets boring really fast. ( but i like playing with my friends)

So by now you probably are saying why the hell did i read this long thread and it sounds like my mind is already set on what i want. I would love to hear what some of you guys are going to buy or not buy.

Thank you for reading and your replys

yea and i am going to limit myself to two out of the four games

Well, you've already basically said you have no reason other than "tradition" to buy Madden 2009. And I don't consider tradition a particularly compelling reason to flush $60 down the toilet. If you must "have" Madden 2009, how about just downloading and printing the cover art from EA's site and slapping it in one of your PS3 game cases. Here's the link:

Madden 2009 Artwork

And I can't really imagine why you'd waste the major wad of cash that Guitar Hero World Tour will cost just for one song. Especially with Rock Bank downloadable content still coming out. Seems like you'd be better just spending a mere $60 for Rock Band 2 (game only) instead. If you need to pretend to be playing System of the Down, toss a CD into stereo and mute Rock Band.

For me, Fallout 3 is a given. Especially since you liked Oblivion.

Personally, I think you should broaden your horizons and give Little Big Planet a look. That looks quite interesting and far more inventive than Force Unleashed.

But if forced to pick 2 from your list, Fallout 3 and Force Unleashed seem like the obvious choices. You don't really have any particularly good reasons to pick up the other two (and your comments seem to indicate you already know that).

the force unleashed should definitely be on the top of your list. its more of a devil may cry, prince of persia, god of war type game than any of the other star wars game from what they have shown. fall out should be on that list as well.
