PS3 Reccomendations

[asukaevaunit02]

Burnout: Paradise - so much fun! (best driving game I've played, on ps3)

Little Big Planet - give it a try, I didn't think I would play something that looked so kiddy, but so much fun, especially multiplayer

Valkyria Chronicles - very unique and involving

[kotora]

Little Big Planet, most of the other games are just your typical multiplatform sequel (of which most just suck or are boring). I paid only 15 euros for this game and it's by far the most fun I've had out of a PS3 game.

I would disagree. I never ended up liking LittleBigPlanet much. Loved the creation tools and all, but the platforming itself felt very stiff and not very fun. IMO there are a lot of better games.

I had a great time playing with friend and solving the co-op puzzles. I agree that the controls are pretty stiff, but the platforming is fun and challenging.

Shooting up a little 4 player Little Big Planet while having some beers before the party begins is great fun. Recommended!

Otherwise you're not getting any FPS, sports or fighting recommendations out of me, so if you like those genres, just ignore me.

Uncharted 1 and 2
Lego Indiana Jones 2 and Lego Harry Potter (will be released in May)
Resident Evil 5
Heavy Mothersmurfing Rain
Megaman 9 and 10
Final Fantasy XIII
Blue Toad Murder Files

Haha that actually looks really charming

Tekken 6 is fantastic! I play a lot of Call of Duty: World at War & Modern Warfare 2 also. Those games are really great for multiplayer online.

RPG's & so on, what people mentioned above.

Blue Toad Murder Files

Haha that actually looks really charming

Yeah, it really is a gem. All the voice acting is done by one man, and he is brilliant. Some of his female voices really crack me up.

The Orange Box (5 games for less than $20)
Battlefield Bad Company (FPS)

I agree with pretty much every game you named except these two. I wouldn't recommend Bad Company because BC2 is a far better game (but avoid it if you don't play online. Single player was pretty meh).

BC1 is nice as a rental. Not that the campaign is anything special, but the jokes (ie Haggard) alone are pretty much worth it

Thanks everyone for their suggestions. I guess I should have been a little more specific to my personal tastes. I'm not really a fan of fighting games (a la Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter) or shooting games but I'll definitely give the RPGs a try.

Also are there any good multiplayer games that are fun to play with friends?

[Rase]

Little Big Planet is a great non-shooter multiplayer game. As long as you aren't playing with a super-serious person it is great fun, and the puzzles can be genuinely tricky. Also, the aesthetic is fantastic in my opinion.

Other than that, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 is a fun beat-em-up with friends, and can make for a great background game (something to play while just chilling or talking). The Lego games (Star Wars, Batman, etc) fall into this also. Aside from those there are a good number of sports and racing games (Motorstorm is supposed to be fun), but other than that I can't think of much on the non-shooter and fighter fronts.

There's a couple of interesting games that use the PS3 Eye:

Eye of Judgement. It's a card game where you have physical cards; you place them on a game mat and the eye scans them into the game. It's a very interesting game.

Trials of Topoq: You control a ball with the motions of your body. You have to guide it through an obstacle course to achieve various directives. So irritating it's incredibly fun.

I am also legally obligated to say Portal, Resistance, Portal, Call of Duty 4, Portal, and Dragon Age. Oh yeah, and Portal.

[Mirage]

Of which Portal, CoD4, and Dragon Age is far superior on PC.

Just played First Slice on PC, and I tend to agree with you as far as that one, at least. I am now feverishly searching for a pirated full version.
