I want to know what must-have games there are for the PS3. I already have a 360 and PC, so keep that in mind. Also, I cannot play games online, so please don't suggest online-focused or exclusively online games.

My recommendations are always the same.

Demon's souls

Fat princess. (FP is certainly playable against AI, only real down side is that you wont get trophies from offline play)

Uncharted 1, 2, and soon 3! The Single-Player, at least for 2, is worth replaying over and over.

Go go go!

inFamous 1 and 2 are good, the Ratchet and Clank games were pretty sweet, God of War 3 is enjoyable if you like a lot of gore... Metal Gear Solid 4, if a bit dated, is still a good single player stealth game, and while I don't enjoy them too much, the Uncharted games is a good choice.

infamous, metal gear solid 4, the uncharted series, litle big plannet is alright, but it's mostly an online game, but i would definitly get the Sly Colection, the god of war colection is alright, it's not my type of game, but it has rave reviews, so its just me then.

I second the Ratchet and Clank (Tools of Destruction and A Crack In Time) games. There is a game between then, but only available over PSN unless you import from Europe. It's really short (2-4 hours) so don't get too bent out of shape. Ratchet games have always had GREAT games if you're playing solo and a must if you like 3D platformers with some gunplay.

Also second the Team Ico collection coming out soon.

The Sly Collection has the HD re-releases of the PS2 classic Sly Cooper trilogy. Another one of the best 3D platformers you'll find, plus a bit of stealth worked in. It's also made by the same guys that did Infamous, so if you like that...

the InFamous franchise as a whole has been stellar!
also look out for Ratchet and Clank, the cartooney visual style fits well with the new generation of games

but whatever you do, stay away from SOCOM 4, they turned an awesome tactical 3rd person shooter into *sigh* generic brown, cover based 3rd person shooter
how original...

The inFamous games. Both of 'em. the first one is damn good, and the second improves EVERYTHING from the original by a mile.

3DDotGameHeroes, if you're into Zelda style games.

Heavy Rain is really the only truly great PS3 exclusive. Others like Infamous, God of War and Uncharted are good, but, like all console exclusives they tend to be bit over-hyped.

If you plan on getting God of War 3, you might as well get God of War Collection if you havn't played the first two games. You can probably get it for cheap and the remakes still hold up to modern games.

On my must buy list so far:
Demons Souls
inFamous(Both)
Uncharted(Both)
LittleBigPlanet 2
God of War 3
My guess is that LBP2 is not worth it if you can't go online and download all of the user-made content.

In addition to what you have I say Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction and Metal Gear Solid 4.

And if you're a horror fan, Siren. The gameplay is a bit weird but if you play it in first person mode, it does a great job of scaring you.

Edler Scrolls IV: Oblivion, InFamous, Transformers: War for Cybertron.

Together, those will give you hundreds of hours of entertainment.

EDIT: Many will say Uncharted. Don't listen, those games are terrible. Boring gameplay, awful plot, irritating characters.
