My 360 broke last week, although I didn't play it much anyway.
So, I've decided on getting a ps3, which is happening tuesday.
My budget includes enough for 3 games,
So far I'm thinking
1. LBP2
2. Random game with decent online (Fighting game, FPS, whatever)
3. Good, relatively lengthy rpg to be my first to 100% on the ps3.

seem like a good list?
Now, what should I put in those two spots? or should I replace LBP2 with something else?

Killzone 2 apparently has a good campaign and multiplayer, or you could just wait for 3.

Mass Effect 2 is coming to the PS3 soon with all add-ons, its linear and repetitive but has great characters and a decent story and world.

I'd say keep Little Big Planet 2 though, loved the 1st.

Obvious joke out of the way, I'll think of a few exclusives (that aren't digital) that got a lot of love.

Demon's Souls
inFamous
Uncharted 1&2
Killzone 2
Gran Turismo 5
God of War 3
ModNation Racers
Valkyria Chronicles
Metal Gear Solid 4
Heavy Rain
Ratchet and Clank
Resistance 1&2
3D Dot Game Heroes
Flower(Digital only)
PixelJunk Shooters(Digital Only)

I didn't post any games that went multiplatform because they're usually the same on the other platform or even better.
There are going to be quite a few good exclusive PS3 games coming out this year as well, I'll probably update this post with a short list later.

I usually give game suggestions in these types of threads, but I just remembered you can download demos. Do that, see which games you like the best.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Fallout 3
Resonance of Fate
Borderlands
Ninja Gaiden: Sigma
Killzone 2

Come to think of it, that's all the game I own! (On PS3,of course)

Resonance of Fate is one of the best RPGs I've ever seen. Keep LBP2, it's looking excellent. I don't know what online game to get though. All my online gaming is done on my PC.

liked the comic actually, was funny ^^

but oh my god so many games
Ive heard a lot about demons souls and valkyria chronicles and resonance of fate. so thats a fuckin hard choice D;

I feel as though i should just wait for Killzone 3 or MvC3 for my online fix, although ive heard good things about uncharted 2...

Why cant my manager just pay me more!?!

Demon's Souls.

If it's too hard, it gets better after the first trophy unlock.

You can level up starting at that point.

Well, you should probably buy a PSN card and download some PSN Classics/exclusives then, they're all pretty good games and you can get them for great prices.

You should probably wait for Killzone 3, but but the Uncharted series always had a strong enough campaign. Killzone 2, while I liked it, is probably skippable since Killzone 3 is just a month away, and the servers are almost deserted by now. You can, however, play Skirmish where up to 15 other players are controlled by bots, and they have pretty good AI as well.

Out of the list, just get Demon's Souls and Flower(that should be about $50 if you buy PSN cards). They're one of the best games this generation.

You should get Disgaea 3, and wait for Disgaea 4 & Twisted Metal.

Then good times will be had by all.

Haven't looked much into the psn store, probably should. Ive decided on Demons souls and LBP, with Killzone 3 and probably Disgea or Resonance next month though..

What are some good psn games?
i remember playing castle crashers a lot on my 360. Always enjoyed the marketplace games since they usually were more unique.

Some popular ones are Echochrome, Everyday Shooter, Fat Princess, Flow, Flower, Lumines Supernova, PixelJunk Shooters/Eden/Monsters, Super Stardust HD, Trine, and Dead Nation, among other games. A good chunk of the great digital games are also in the PS Classics section.

Thethingthatlurks suggested NieR, and I completely agree. It's really cheap by now, and in my opinion, it's one of the better games that came out this generation. It's not digital though.

Umm if you have the cash to get a PS3 and 3 games you have the cash to ether get a new 360 and more games or get the 360 fixed. Just saying. The PS3 is the most expensive current gen console. Also PS3 has a small only community compared to the 360 and PC.
