Believe it or not FF13 is the only game I own for the PS3. What other games would you recommend for this console? I was thinking of picking up Sonic's Genesis Collection but technically it's just a compilation of old SEGA games.

Valkyria Chronicles, Disgaea 3, Metal Gear Solid 4, Unchartered Series, Heavy Rain, Fallout 3.
Thats the obligatorys out of the way.
It all depends on what kind of genres you like. Ultimate Genesis Collection is an incredible value, especially with save states and HD-res remakes (trophies don't hurt either).
But in general we can say:
pretty much.
My top 3 are Metal Gear Solid 4, God of War III, and Killzone 2.
I just picked up a PS3 for my birthday this last week, and I must admit, I was missing out on some AMAZING games. I have finished Heavy Rain, MGS4, Uncharted 1 and 2, and God of War 3. I would recommend any of those.
I am thinking of picking up Killzone 2, Resistance 1 and 2, Demon's Souls, and Valkyria Chronicles today or tomorrow. I feel that will sum up most of the exclusives I have missed out on.
Also, if you decide to pick up any multiplayer game or anything, I would be more than happy to play through it with you!
All I own on PS3 is FF XIII and Disgaea 3. :] Disgaea 3 is the best Disgaea in my opinion too.
Little Big Planet (P, but it can be practically anything online or offline if you create it yourself. My favorite out of this bunch)
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (A)
Uncharted Drake's Fortune (AA)
Uncharted 2 Among Thieves (AA)
Heavy Rain (Adventure)
Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction (AP)
Ratchet & Clank Future: A Quest for booty (AP)
Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time (AP)
The Orange Box (5 games for less than $20)
Mirror's Edge (FPP)
God of War Collection (AA)
God of War III (AA)
Killzone 2 (FPS)
Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare (FPS)
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 (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).
I can't recommend the Orange Box either but only because we're talking about a console version. Even if you don't have a PC that can play those games right now, you're still better off waiting until you do because of the sheer amount of extra content that has been released for TF2 that will never come to the PS3 version. If you don't play games online though then you can ignore this and get it anyway. TF2 is the only game in those five that's online, and you won't really miss anything with the others if you play on the PS3.
The Orange Box
Portal is amazing!!! and the new modes are top notch
Obviously something like this relies heavily on preference. What kind of games are you usually interested in?
Also, do you own a 360 as well? There are plenty of multi-console titles worth getting, but obviously most people aren't thinking to recommend them as you asked about PS3 titles.
One of the great features the PS3 has over the 360 is access to the PSN store for free. So even if you aren't down with paying for multiplayer it gives you access to download a ton of demos. I'm on there ever week downloading every new demo that came out, just so I don't miss anything I might like. I would recommend going to the demos section and filling your hard drive up to get a good handle on what is out there.
Though it'll ultimately depend on your tastes, here's my collection for you to cast judgement upon. I don't have a lot of the more commonly agreed upon 'great games' for PS3 though, mostly because I'm not a fan of FPS.
Little Big Planet
Dynasty Warriors 6
Bayonetta
Final Fantasy XIII
Tekken 6
Soul Calibur 4
I could probably be classed as a Tekken and SC veteran, so these games were a no-brainer for me to buy. But might not be up your alley. Then again, they make for good games if you've got friends over.
I don't want to get into another heated debate over whether Bayonetta should be played on PS3 or not, but bottom line is that it's a great game and it's very playable on the console.
Little Big Planet is awesome fun. You can't go past it, I reckon. It'll be cheap these days as well.
And Dynasty Warriors I picked up super-cheap. It gets boring real quick, if you ask me. But if you'd heard about the Dynasty Warriors series before this, then you'd already know that. xD
You might also consider Batman Arkham Asylum (a great multiplat) and Wipeout HD Fury (which isn't for everyone, but awesome and challenging!).
You should at least try Valkyria Chronicles too.
You people are all absurd for not mentioning Demons Souls. It competes for best game of all time in my book. For multi-platform, Assassin's Creed 2 is great. Darksiders or Dante's Inferno are fun as well. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 1 or 2. White Knight Chronicles is pretty fun too.
Those are just some to add to the list.
THE JACKEL
add me, PSN: ljkkjlcm9
Damn yes sorry Demon's Souls and Infamous are also musts!
And Assassin's Creed II, yes indeed.
Prototype over Infamous for me
Making a slow come back since 2008
