Recommendations - Blu-ray Forum

I haven't played my PS3 in a little while because nothing was coming out for a while and now I'm lost since I haven't really looked at game news. One of my favorite games is the God of War Trilogy. I love action/adventure games. I enjoy the gore, as well.

Is there anything you can recommend me? Only one I could find was Splatterhouse, but I'm hearing very very mixed things. Haven't played SAW II: Flesh and Blood since again, heard very mixed things and thought the first SAW game was very mediocre.

Have you played Dead Space? Might be a good one for you....cheap, and the 2nd one comes out in less than a month.

I rented that back when I had Gamefly and beat it in around a week.

I don't do multiplayer much since I'm usually the only one playing the PS3. I always just do the campaign and sometimes play online, if the game can do so.

Enslaved? Dante's Inferno? Batman?

Tough without knowing what you've played. Enslaved is failry new and only $20 - got good reviews too.

I played Dante's Inferno, it's a lot like God of War, so I was addicted haha. I beat that in a couple days.

I've never heard of or played Enslaved. I just looked up the trailer and it looks pretty cool.

I haven't played Batman.

Thanks for the recommendations Harpua!

I'm still open to recommendations since I want to have a list of games since I fly through them fairly quickly.

The new Castlevania plays a lot like GOW I here. I don't know if it has a lot of gore tho.

Castlevania is a must if you like GOW...long game with a good story and some really cool level designs.

Given your taste, if you haven't played it yet, I would strongly recommend DARKSIDERS.

It's like the unnatural child of Zelda and God Of War.

I have to agree. Darksiders is like playing Zelda with gore, really good game.

tarvis · 12-31-2010, 08:58 PM

I've also got to give it up for Darksiders. It really is a fantastic game. And only $15 on Amazon, to boot.

Warhawk is an online title. In fact, theres no single player of any kind. It also supports splitscreen online if you've got someone over.

Mandatory question for all ps3 owners:

Darthvong · 12-31-2010, 10:23 PM

Batman is very good!

you could try Bioshock 1 and 2, 1 being the better of the two.

Dead Space
DarkSiders
Bioshock 1, Bioshock 2
Call Of Duty : Black Ops

Chiyo_chichi · 01-01-2011, 04:36 PM

Even though the design is a bit polarizing on opinions, I recommend you absolutely try Bayonetta, especially since it'll be dirt cheap on Amazon these days.

Gameplay is fast and flowing, bloody good attacks, replayable...probably my favorite straight-up-action game this gen.
