Damn GTA4 taking away from all my warhawk time!!!

i cant get into warhawk and i am into games.

im really trying to get more into shooters but after years of detesting them i now like them a bit but im no ace and i like to play lots of offline to practice them before venturing online and the thing that bugs me with warhawk is that you just cant do that.(the only reason i got into shooters more is because thats half the new titles seem to be on this generation of consoles)

i love the ps3 and i think that most first party games are very good but the not so good games tend to be multi format and you would have the same issues if you were talking about the 360.the psn has some great titles that are well worth a look like the amazing MONSTERS by pixel junk

my only issue with games these days is that shooters seem to dominate the titles avalible.

want more games like
final fantasy
star wars tfu
dmc
resident evil

i own mgs4,dmc4,lego star wars,civ revolution,everybodys golf,burnout and singstar 1 and 2.
next 2 games im getting are uncharted(again) and buzz so i dont know what that says about my gaming style

love mgs4 myself its a great all round game that cant be pigeon holed into the shooter section.

It is a great PS2 game. It is not online, just a single player experience from Team Ico.

unless you are a hardcore RPG fan, if you can't find a game you love on the PS3, then maybe video games aren't your thing anymore. ive never played any of the metal gear games, but MGS4 is the best game ive played in a long long time. if you cant get into it, you are either very picky, or like i said before, maybe you moved on.

yeah, i know that, but i never even played ICO. and neither one of them really seemed that great to me. of course i was just judging the book by it's cover, but if it is that good i will check it out. do you guys recommend it?

Buy it now.

EDIT: it's that good huh?

I bought MGS4 and it does little for me. Its great looking but i'm not a war person and find shooting quite boring unless its done in a abstract way like uncharted.

Wipeout HD is nowhere to be seen. So i'm wondering what people are playing. Is burnout any good? Can you see me playing it for a while? What about Heavenly sword? I love GOW on PS2 but heard HS isn't as good.

Really I love fantasy games that are not RPG's. Really love stuff like Prince of persia, GOW, Shadows of the collosos and Ico. There doesn't seem to be anything like that on PS3 yet.

Stop buying raceing games. They all get to easy and boring really quick.

Burnout: Paradise City is a load of fun for anyone who likes racing games and there are some additional content updates coming out in the very near future. Ratchet and Clank should be fun, try the demo. Portal was awesome! If you enjoy lighter fare, either of the Lego titles are also quite a bit of fun and filled with humor.

You'll need to get a good idea of what your tastes are before purchasing a game. I've never tried it myself, but you sound like a prime candidate for Gamefly. There you can rent games to try them out, and keep them for as long as you want without late fees. That would keep you from spending $59 on a game without knowing if you like it first.

Anyway, here's a few games I'd consider trying out:

Assassin's Creed - Good fantasy game with a twist. It's currently at Amazon for $29, and that's a steal.

Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - Great fantasy game that is much more than an ordinary RPG. Amazon $29 ($59 for Game of Year Edition)

Lair - Great game. Great story. The controls take a bit of getting used to, but the tilt still works best.

Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction: Extremely entertaining platformer with jaw dropping graphics

Rock Band - Fantastic multiplayer party game. Fantastic single-player as well

Splinter Cell: Double Agent - Great action stealth game that is sadly overlooked on PS3

Fight Night: Round 3 - Good boxing game with great control system and graphics. Amazon $29 (Game of the Year Edition, $59)

LEGO STAR WARS is a blast, especially with a partner. Also, I haven't played LEGO Indy yet, but will be playing on my brother's Wii soon...

If the Game of the Year doesn't excite you, it just means you have particular tastes, as do I. I hate Call of Duty 4, Haze, and basically every other game that's been mentioned in this thread. The Only Games I like for the Ps3 are MGS4, Uncharted, Singstar, Rockband, and Warhawk, Emphasis on Singstar, Not that I've Played them all, but I can say, with a Passion that I do not like Burnout, Oblivion, and Especially Heavenly Sword... God of War is Much Better.

Some People are Just Pickier, or Have Higher Standards, or don`t just jump on the bandwagon of every game that gets a little Hype (Haze)

If you enjoyed Prologue try GRID i am enjoying it more than Prologue.
Cant wait to get a driver to drive for my company.

Also coming out tomorrow is Civilization Revloution. Maps are random each time and with different leaders and skills that game will have much replay ability.

There's a lot of great games on your list like Oblivion, Burnout, and Heavenly Sword that you're free to condemn. People all have different tastes, and that's fine. That's why were all individuals. Try not to knock people though, just because their tastes are different than yours. People with differing tastes can easily say the same things about you.

Knock the game, not the gamers.

i did a few posts up.

in my opinion its the best download game thats out for psn(or xbl arcade) and you can get the game and the update for a bargain price. under £7 for both in the uk(sure i paid less than £6 even).

its brilliant and will prob end up with trophy's which will add even more to the game.


p.s girlfriends/wifes tend to love playing it solo or co-op with you so its a good tool to please them also.

Buy g25 racing wheel and a playseats evolution from amazon. You haven't really played Gran Turismo until you play it with a wheel.

It's worth the $600. I promise

Ok ok its probably not worth it unless you're a hardcore racing fan..

Do you get up at 3:30am to watch F1 live on speed?

I have played quite a few ps3 games. Lego indiana jones, lego star wars, heavenly sword, GTA IV, Uncharted, Time Crisis 4, Burnout 5. Even if you don't have any games to play, there is plenty to do online if you go online. Browse the web, chat with your friends, look at photos if you have the right model, watch movies, listen to music. The list goes on and on and on.
