New PS3 Owner, what game should I absolutely buy next?

[atomictoast]

So, I just today went out to gamestop and picked up the new PS3 Slim, now that the price tag feels right for the content the system gives. I also grabbed LittleBigPlanet: GOTY Edition since I've been drooling over that game since it came out. I'm amazed by it, but its not like I'll only ever play a single game for this thing...so the question is...

Give me ONE game you'd absolutely say I HAVE to buy next, besides LBP. Any Downloadable games count, but try to stick to PS3 exclusives. I've owned a 360 for around 3 years now.

Also, to anyone who hasn't gotten LittleBigPlanet, its amazing. Try it. I might not sleep because of it.

Uncharted is pretty good if not great, and buying it now will get you warmed up for Uncharted 2 which is shaping up to be another winner.
Other than that, I haven't really used my PS3 for gaming because I didn't like LBP, got bored with Resistance (though it's one of those titles I promise myself I'll finish it one day... just like Assassin's Creed, The Darkness and Too Human), and have never been a Metal Gear Solid fan so MGS4 didn't even make it into my collection.

I'd say MGS. lol
obvious choice of a game.

Only if he played the others already. The entire explaining and untangling of the story will go over the heads of anyone else. The Last Days of Foxhound thing would help a bit though.

Get Fat princess, Killzone 2, and resistance 2.

Then wait for the holiday season to come

Infamous! It's why I bought mine, Metal Gear solid 4 is great also.

Go with Burnout Paradise if you like racers. It will go very far with the $20.

Only 20$ now? Well then, definitely worth it.
Fallout 3 is great, if you don't have it for another system already. I personally would give Infamous a pass.

I personally liked Prototype. It was like playing as some weird combination of Wolverine, Spawn, and Spider-Man.

Only bloodier!

The only exclusive that would really make me consider getting a PS3 is Little Big Planet.

Protip; Save your money for Gran Turismo 5, Final Fantasy 13 and various other games that may or may not be good.

 

[KrackleJack]

Get Killzone 2 or Infamous, but if you liked LBP that much wait for ModNation Racers.. thats the game to die for and God of War 3

 

[lee1287]

gears of war two.

 

[Taerdin]

Infamous, or if you're into turn based strategy RPGs - Valkyria Chronicles

 

[Dubkip]

Save your money up for Mag when it comes out or get killzone 2 or resistance 2.

 

[Kollega]

If you like platformers,go buy something from Ratchet & Clank Future series. There's big,retail game - Tools Of Destruction,a smaller,downloadable one - Quest For Booty,and sequel - A Crack in Time - is coming in October.

 

[Et3rnalLegend64]

Actually, is Tales of Vesperia coming for PS3 wherever you are? Get that.

Actually, I hadn't played the previous games, and knew next to nothing about the story. I still really enjoyed it, though. Also, why the hell has no-one mentioned Folklore yet? It's a great game, if a little slow at parts.
