I just bought a PS3. Are there any games worth a shit for this thing?

So you got a PS3 before thinking what you want to play on it?

:hmmm:

It's either bullshit or your tag is 100% correct

Vanquish is a pretty cool popamoler, maybe play MGS4 for the lulz. I would recommend Wipeout HD and Armored Core games if you're into this sort of stuff.
I also heard that Valkyria Chronicle is kind of good (if you are a faggot of course).

Disgaea 3/4/D2
Valkyria Chronicles
Demon's souls
Persona 5, though it hasn't been released yet
If you like ghibli studio's animation, Ni No Kuni

There's an upcoming Guilty Gear game calleed Xrd Sign which is coming to PS3/PS4. Another fighter worth picking up is Persona 4 Arena and the upcoming sequel (P4A2), but that's not a PS3 exclusive.

And there's probably a handful of worthwhile more obscure SRPGs

I snatched a friend's PS3 some months ago too.

Games I've played :
- Demon's Souls : Awesome
- Red Dead Redemption : Great
- The Last Of Us : Shit

Potentially good games I already have in my possession and will try in the future :
- Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
- Deadly Premonition DC
- Nier
- GTA V
- Valkyria Chronicles
- Resonance Of Fate

Potentially good titles to be released for ps3 in the near future :
- Persona 5


I'm basically talking about PS3 exclusives here. Deadly P. isn't an exclusive, but since the PC port is shit, you're probably better off with the console version.

Codex is the worst possible place to ask this question. Try asking JRPG if you have no taste whatsoever.
Demon's/Dark Souls and Disgaea games are infinitely superior to anything that's been put out during the recent years by Western A-AAA RPG developers. Witcher, Alpha Protocol and even Fallout New Vegas were moderately popular in the top RPG polls

Dragon's Dogma and Souls series are quite good action games.

Red Dead Redemption is possibly the best console-exclusive game of the last generation. The Infamous and Uncharted games aren't bad if you're down for some mole-popping.

I wouldn't go that far, but indeed RDD was surprisingly good. It's definitely the best rockstar game since vice city.

I'm going to second Nier. It's not the best game around but it's certainly one of the most interesting.

I got one as a blu ray player a while back. There's literally nothing on it that important if you have a gaming PC. I never used it.

I've seen Red Dead Redemption played and my son likes a similar game. Can you point me at the pros and cons?

Also are there any good WW2 or earlier dog-fighting games for this thing?

I got a PS3 for my kids and to get netflix. But among you geniuses I wear this tag proudly.

I've only played some UFC game on PS3 and random fightin games. Idk if you shouldget those for your kids though
