Blasphemy, Resistance is by far the better game. And I can't recommend Killzone 2 if you've ever played an FPS where the protagonist doesn't control like a drunken supertanker and has slightly more personally that a bucket of cold sick. Hell, I can't recommend it if you've ever played another FPS period, really, it's dire.DrunkWithPower said:
Oddly I've found that, despite their sporadic release schedule, I enjoy my PS3 exclusives way more than the myriad of Xbox games I purchase.
It might be because they're better games, or it might be because I'm just telling myself that.
Still, I've really enjoyed Uncharted, InFamous, Metal Gear Solid 4, Little Big Planet, Folklore and Valkyria Chronicles so I can recommend picking up all of those titles.
Also the PS3 ports of Enchanted Arms and Eternal Sonata have exclusive content that makes them a better buy than the 360 originals, if you have that choice.

Righty first off, my best advice is that you mainly stay to PS3 exclusive games.
Here's a list of the few exclusives i bought that made 2 of my friends ditch their 360's ( no joke) to buy a PS3.
Resistance 2 - solely for the 30v30 multiplayer. Its very fun and extremely easy and fast to get into. A good game to relax and play with your friends.
Wipeout HD (DLC) - Very good racer, though not to everyone's liking.....at first. After a short time and once you get used to the unusual controls,its a very good game which can be played casually or hardcore .
Killzone 2 - A good, some what realistic FPS that has state of the art graphics and a unique gameplay ( as unique as an fps can be from other fps's). Though the multiplayer can be very irritating and reliant on teammates limiting it somewhat. A definite 'rent before you buy'.
MotorStorm: Pacific rift -A very fun racer, though not arcade style racer. It may seem to be of an arcade style at first, but to be able to play the game on the harder difficulties, you can see how the developers previous games ( WRC series) have influenced the game mechanics.
Metal Gear Solid 4 - Excellent gameplay, great story, and a must for anyone who enjoyed the other games of the MGS series. HOWEVER, expect to play very little on your first play through as about 2/3 of the game is cut scene's explaining the extremely complex story line.
Note about Infamous.
After playing the demo i was looking forward to playing it, and granted, the first few hours were fun....but hell, that game is linear. Its biggest short fall is how you do not need to change how you play the game from your first hour, to your 5th or 10th hour.
Ratchet and Clank Future, both the game and the downloadable. They're massive fun for people who enjoy blowing the crap out of stuff. It's also getting a sequel in October, I think.
Of course, I'd also recommend alot of the other games recommended here as well. Well, except for Metal gear Solid 4. It's more of a movie.
Also, if you are planning to get a few non exclusive games, get Armored Core 4. And Armored Core: For Answer. Also, get a japanese account and download the older Armored Core games.
DO IT NAO.
