:psx: I just recently got a playstation 3 for my combined b-day and christmas present from my step dad (my b-day and x-mas are like 2 weeks apart). Can anybody recommend any ps3 games to buy, I'm completely lost.I'm only looking for exclusives on ps3 as only one of my other friends own a ps3, the rest are on xbox 360, so try not to recommend online games that are more fun with friends. Btw I'm basically into the same kind of games petedorr is into to a large extend, so no fighting or sports games. *The only reason I'm not just watching pete's ps3 collection is because the vid is like 4 years old now.*Please try not to recommend majorly popular games such as uncharted and resistance as those are already on my list. Try recommending some rpgs and stuff such as like folklore or something. The edge of the universe is your limit. :D Thank you.

Yakuza, all of them.
Heavenly Sword; people bashed it for being too short, but you get nothing but high quality in those 5 hours.
Killzone Trilogy; start with killzone 2. The first game hasn't aged well at all, just watch the opening cutscene and you'll have a good idea of what's going on.
Ratchet and Clank series
Siren Blood Curse if you like survival horror.
Valkyria Chronicles
Time Crisis Raising Storm pack
House of the Dead Overkill
Ninja Gaiden Sigma, one of the best action games out there and the Ps3 one is the best version.
The Sly Collection
God of War Saga
Infamous Collection
Wipeout HD
Playstation All Stars; personally I think it's pretty damn awesome but you may want to try before you buy.
Hot Shots Golf Out of Bounds

If you plan on getting into Resistance I would recommend the first and third one. The 2nd was terrible IMO. And yes Folklore is pretty sweet :) I don't like RPGs much so I only recommended Valkyria Chronicles since that's one of the few that I enjoyed.

Thanks this is defiantely helpful. I've played Killzone 1, i own it on ps2 and your defiantely right I found it difficult to play. The one thing I hate is bashing a game due to length. I've played plenty of quality short, meaning 6- hrs long and I've never had an issue. I can understand that maybe people don't want to dish out the full $60 for a short game, but you could always wait until the game is in the $20 discount bin, the only way my collection continues to grow :D

For sure you can probably find it in a bargain bin at this point since it came out in 2007, hope you like it if you pick it up! The graphics and characters in that game are terrific.

Oh forgot a good one: Motorstorm Pacific Rift!

Hmm... not a huge amount to add, Ninja gave you a good list already :D God I love Yakuza. I can probably add some RPG's for you though :)

Metal Gear 4 (probably on the list anyway but... you have to be sure about these things :P Oh, and if you don't have a PSP the HD collection includes Peace Walker :))
Heavy Rain (again, probably on your list but it HAS to be there)
Demons Souls
Star Ocean: The Last Hope International (has more content than the 360 version I think)
White Knight Chronicles 2 (don't bother with the first one, the second game includes it for free)
Rune Factory (I LOVE this game :'))
Atelier Totori (There are more Atelier games on PS3 but this is the only one I have so far)
Rainbow Moon (PSN only I believe)
Wizardry (VERY old school, again i'm sure this is a PSN only one)
Agarest: Generations of war (there is a sequel to this out now)

Last Rebellion (Not sure about this but heard it was a okay rpg)
Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom (Pretty good hack and slash rpg ,also its dirt cheap)
Trinity: Souls of Zill O’ll (Havent played it but looks pretty good)

and if your into importing heres a few more

YAKUZA.

Start with 4. 4 is the best.

3 is good, but it starts off far, far, FAR too slow for someone new to the series.

Yakuza Dead Souls is mediocre.
