Obviously around launch there was not the multitude of games we have now, so a few answers might over lap, but I got my PS3 in Jan 08 & it came with Beowulf. I was so excited as I plugged everything it, loaded it up, then discovered that the new system didn't necessarily mean everything was going to be great! The game was disappointing.

Luckily the next few games raised the bar considerably, & now I could never go back, not even for the classics like DAH & Shadow of the Colossus!

My first next gen console was the PS3. The first game I played was one of the Madden games. (I don't remember what year of Madden it actually was.) Anyway, I didn't see too big of a leap. The next game I played was Oblivion. It was then that it became clear how big of a leap the PS3 was compared to the PS2 and Xbox.

First next gen game I played on any system would be....hmmm...it would have to have been on PC (because it received 360 games) or 360 (as it came out first), so maybe Oblivion or PGR3 in the stores.

As for PS3, I played sonic in the store or something, but the first one I bought (got a PS3 almost a year ago now) was Infamous and Killzone 2, playing Infamous first.

My first was Turok. I actually wanted Resistance, but apparently one of the employees at Gamestop had taken it home to play it, so all they had in the store was the empty box. Thanks Gamestop. :roll: So I got Turok - the graphics looked nice, I was pretty impressed. But the gameplay absolutely stunk, like someone went through the whole thing and took out anything that might be fun and replaced it with something frustrating.

NFS: Most Wanted on the 360 was my first "next gen" game, I thought it looked amazing. On the os3 however my first games were Motorstorm and R:FoM and they blew me away.

My first next gen game was Kameo: Elements of Power on 360. I was pretty amazed at how good the graphics were, and that was on a SDTV.

The first game I played for PS3 was CoD3. It wasn't even in HD (didn't have a hdtv at the time) but WOW! It was still impressive to me back then.

It was Call of Duty 2 for the 360 actually. It was awesome and remains my favorite FPS to this date.

For the PS3 though it was Resistance. It was ok. Nothing special, but I guess a solid launch title.

First for me was Assassins Creed. Thought the system was totally amazing. Thought the game was far to short and easy, but still fun.

The first game I played as soon as I got my Ps3 was Folklore, it was a cool game and I loved it at the time..like 3 years ago. I never did beat it though and had gotten rid of it since. I should try it out again.

Got both Resistance 2 and LBP along with my ps3 which I got for christmas 2008. Resistance 2 was the first one I played. Man it was so awesome, playing a real next(or current?) gen game for the first time. I loved that game. Played it all the time, but stopped after buying Killzone 2 though. And now I'm to bussy with other games to play it again. Will definitely buy Resistance 3 when it's out. btw LBP was great too.

MW2 was the first game i got for PS3. I just bought the console in April, after MONTHS of nagging from my cousin to get on this dang system & game so we can play online. And i did. And it's spectacular. Beat the single player campaign pretty quick, only messed around with the part that just has single objectives, but i play nearly every day online. Bought a few other games shortly after and my wishlist keeps getting bigger.

I played Resistance, it was cool because of the AI, animations and the co-op with my bro, nothing groundbreaking, but ONLINE was great and the graphics were decent, but I was really blown away by the first game I owned, which was Oblivion which was amazing.

The first "next gen" game I played was Kameo when I bought my 360. I had a shiny new 720p Samsung HDTV and I was amazed at the level of detail. Kameo was such an underrated game. As for my first PS3 game it was Ridge Racer 7. Played it in 720p on that Samsung, but I was truly amazed when I played it on my first 1080p set. Ridge Racer isn't what it once was in its prime, but I've played each and every one of them. Love that drifting!

In general it was Dead Rising, on the PS3 it was Uncharted. But my very first exposure to the next generation of gaming was the Fight Night demo.

Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction. Really disappointed, nothing like the old ones, was ready to go back to my PS2 but my PS3 came with MGS4, and until then I had never even heard of Metal Gear Solid. Needless to say, I loved it.

I rented an Xbox360 and played TES4 Oblivion, followed by Two Moons and Halo 3. Was awesome. First PS3 game? I got Resistance and TES4 Oblivion GOTY when I got it. Resistance was awesome at the time.

The original Motorstorm. I thought the graphics were okay and physics were cool but the cars controlled like crap. Luckily Motorstorm Pacific Rift was a much better game.

The Motorstorm demo in Best Buy. Liked the graphics but got bored of the game in about 5 minutes or so.
