im thinking about buying a PS3 just for some great exclusives. Can you name the best ones that are out now and that are coming out? All the mulitplates games im still going to play on the 360 cause i've had a 7 yr account with xbox live so i have all my friends there and my gamer score im still working on. However, i'm wondering if there are some truley epic games that are exclusive to the PS3 that would warrent a buy thx.

Sony recently launched their collections line, which bundles between 2 and 5 games for $30-$40. Among them is the God of War Saga, the Rachet and Clank Collection and Journey special edition (includes flow and flower as well IIRC). The crown jewel however has got to be the infamous collection. $40 gets you two of the best open world action games PS3 has to offer and one downloadable side story from the same universe. InFamous 2 is so far, my game of the generation. Others to look into include Twisted Metal, The Rachet and Clank Future games, Littlebigplanet 2, Killzone 3 and 3D dot game heroes.

Demons Souls and Metal Gear Solid 4 are my two favorite exclusives.

Your probably going to have to qualify that as to what genre you are interested in.

The best I have played are:

Motorstorm - online is shut down now, but offline is still good.

Motorstorm Pacific Rift - online is a bit dead

Infamous 1 and 2

Uncharted 1 and 2

Little Big Planet

Valkyria Chronicles

MAG

Killzone 2 - Killzone collection is coming up next month with remaster KZ1 + KZ2 + KZ3 + all DLC. KZ2 is the best though.

Ratchet and Clank Tools of Destruction

Journey and Flower - PSN games that also are in the recently released Journey collection

Heavenly Sword

Gran Turismo 5

If you havent played them on PS2, i would recommend the Ratchet and Clank HD collection.

I would also say that Uncharted 2 is by far the best in the Uncharted series. I listed MAG because there arent many games you can play with 128 or 256 players invovled. The community has slowed but I think it still is going strong enough to find games during peak hours.

Im probably the only person who thought uncharted 3 completely sucked.

But buy the InFamous 1, 2, and festival of blood pack.

Little Big Planet 1 + 2.

Get the Uncharted series, Infamous series, Motorstorm serises and Gran Turismo 5. Many people will recomend it, but don't get Metal Gear Solid 4, it's only 4 hours long and you have to pay for extra's in multiplayer.

This, Disgaea 4 and the upcoming compilation pack Ezio's Trilogy (release date Nov. 13) which is a PS3 exclusive which contains Assassin's Creed II with all DLC, as well as AC: Brotherhood and AC: Revelations without any add-ons all on one disc.

Many games are completely overrated IMO, so it's just up to your own taste in games. Except for the Metal Gear Solid franchise wich is an absolute unique gem of a series. Heavy rain and those "mature" games are also unique and all that, but Metal Gear Solid is more like a videogame than any of those, it doesnt try to cater to an older audience that loves quick-time-events. Also the graphics are still among the best in an action game for this whole console generation, nothing on PS3 or Xbox really looks better for 1080p.

There aren't many PS3 exclusive games that i liked other than that. Gran Turismo 5, dont bother if you have Forza.. you know games are pretty similar dispite having diffrent names, but Metal Gear Solid 4 is really something unique in gameplay and action and suspense and everything (if you dont like long cutscenes just press X). Production values are the best for quality and all that too.

God of war has something similar on Xbox, im sure of it. And pretty much any other game too. But the ability to play the old PS2 games and even PS1 is really cool.

Jak and Daxter HD collection, go for that! It's awsome.

Metal Gear Solid HD collection.

I haven't really played the Heavy Rain or L.A Noire wich are big exclusive PS3 games.

The other ones that people mentioned are great too like Infamous, but i don't list any because alot of them have something similar on other consoles or PC.

Killzone 2

MGS 4

Overall good games:

LBP 1 & 2

Killzone 3

Motorstorm PR & Apocalypse

Resistance Trilogy

Uncharted Drakes Fortune

Average Games:
