You know how people who look for a next gen system and get a Xbox solely for Halo? Does the PS3 have a "halo"? I was thinking about this all yesterday and I could not think of one game.

Theres a few Metal Gear Solid 4, Ratchet & Clank, and possibly uncharted now that it is a household name.

Killzone 2, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of The Patriots, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. Those titles persuaded me to purchase a PS3.

Wow. Talk about a faulty question. I guess the only response would be, would HALO have been Halo if the Xbox was $500? Probably not. But now that the PS3 is a reasonable price for the more average joe to start adopting, what games would appeal to them. I'd say Infamous, Killzone 2and Uncharted for sure. Gran Turismo is another very popular series.

Even though I'm not a fan of the MGS series, I'd have to say that MGS4 is the most popular exclusive on the system. I'm sure a lot of non-PS3 owners would like to have it.

Yeah now that the PS3 is a reasonable price they are flying off shelves, I am speaking of the past...I think that was a big reason they did not sell great, because it took 5 years for the great games to ocme out lol.

Didnt they ahve footage for Killzone 2 BEFORE the PS3 actual release? lol

The PS3 has plenty of exclusives that could make a sale, it all depends on the buyer's taste.

Uncharted

MGS4

Killzone 2

InFamous

Ratchet and Clank

Little Big Planet

Valkyria Chronicles

There's something for everyone, and these are only a few examples.

5 YEARS !?!?!?! OMFG LOLZORZ!!!!

Seriously though, any non-fanboy knows that the PS3 has had a good library for a while now. The console didn't sell because, games or not, the price was prohibitive to the average gamer.

The only game I hear non owners talk about is MGS4, they will say "Yeah I got a 360 but I would def get a PS3 for MGS4" no one I know personally know mentions anything else.

1. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
2. Gran Turismo 5
3. God of War 3
4. Twisted Metal
5. Socom

Up and coming franchises...

1. Killzone
2. Uncharted
3. Little Big Planet

I think all these games are the soul purpose for owning a PS3 just like Halo, Gears of War, Fable.

Since it's a more reasonable price I imagine developers are going to show our beloved console more love.

I prefer Half-Life 2 Episode 3, or Half-Life 3. I don't care much for Left 4 Dead.

Depends on your preference. I'm not buying a Xbox just because I don't like Halo, or vice versa. Again, I didn't buy my PS3 to play LittleBigPlanet, inFAMOUS or Killzone 2 or whatever, but it made an impact.

I would prefer that too, Half-Life is probably my favorite game of all time. Episode 3 will probably be out in 4 years but will be perfect. Valve proves that if you take time you can make a near flawless game .

I got mine for blurays and to play video games whenever something good came out, and I guess I got mine in the right time because all the good games for me came out this year.

MGS4 is the obvious one to pick out, but aside from that there's God of War III, Gran Turismo 5 and possibly LBP, KZ2 and Uncharted. FFXIII was supposed to be another big exclusive, but it can't be now for obvious reasons. I don't think the PS3 has a single flagship game (or gaming series), but rather a collection, which I believe is much better than relying on a single franchise to bring in the consumers.

With the new price drop and the new PS3 Slim, I've decided to get a PS3. First game I'm getting is MGS4. Second would probably be Fight Night Round 4 but that isn't an exclusive. My second PS3 exclusive would probably be Uncharted. Other exclusives I'm looking forward to are Uncharted 2, Heavy Rain and God of War 3.

I've been interested in buying a PS3 for a while for the main fact that it's a bluray player that can also play games on it. But the most interesting game that has kept my attention is Warhawk.

For 20 bucks, Orange Box is definitely one of the best game deals around. Portal, TF2, HL2 w/ Ep.1 & 2. Just pure gaming goodness. It isn't exclusive though and I believe the TS was asking about PS3 exclusives.

Orange Box IS a must, but I DID notice that it runs better on the 360 than the PS3. That's been the ONLY multiplat game that I've noticed runs better on the 360.

It's simply because I hate sports games. Sports games aren't the best examples to use because of new annnual releases.
