the story is actually pretty good. I haven't platinumed it yet but I can tell you without worry that this will be the easiest platinum to get. Easier than burnout paradise for sure.

Out of the choices you have up there, I'd blind buy (haven't played any in your list)

Valkayria chronicles or Civ. Rev. I'm leaning towards Civ Rev though, and Sid Meier is just a genius and had me hooked with Alpha Centauri

Wait to see if you get a PSP. Then you can get God Of War and Final Fantasy: Crisis Core.

Several games are coming out spring so you may be pushed more on what to spend it on...

Thats all I was trying to say...

I really did not think Far Cry 2 was much good. You may want to try it before you buy it.

Of your list at hand, I'd say Valkyria Chronicles. Sleeper hit of the year for sure, and sits with Disgaea 3 in a long empty void for the PS3's catalogue. The art style is not at all the same as Prince of Persia, it is rather very much its own thing. Looks great and has a certain charm.

Being a RPG buff, I chose Valkyria. It looks awesome too.

Uncharted was pretty easy and Dead Space is gonna be pretty easy too...surely it can't be easier than those?
