I want to buy some PSN games but I feel like there are so many choices and it's just so hard to choose. What are some really good PSN games out there that I should not overlook? (if overlook means buy then yes overlook)


EDIT: I did buy Gotham City Imposters today, while it IS fun I hate how my enemies disappear off the radar and sometimes it's hard to even tell the difference between my guys and the enemies.

Also got Journey as well, oh my GOD, what a beautiful game.

Why are you still reading this!? Go play Journey before I beat you to death with an overweight badger!

I just got it yesterday and played through the whole thing once it was done downloading! SO GOOD!

What's your PSN name? Maybe I already played with you

Daystar_Clarion, so you'd have probably noticed if you had played with me.

Pixel Junk shooter 1 & 2. They don't have much going in the way of story but they constantly blow me away over and over when they introduce new mechanics. The art is very nice and the music is an amazing ambient techno kind of thing. Also the controls are very minimalistic and intuitive, only the shoulder buttons and joysticks are used.

Also, are there any great PS1 games that you dont' still have the copies for? Because, lemme tell ya, as an avid PS1 emulation enthusiast, I can tell you PSN is nowhere clsoe to comprehensive with it's selection, but it does have some of the best of the best.

Castle Crashers and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game are both really good side scrolling beat-em-ups. I'd suggest both of those. Limbo is also a very good game, but it's more of a logic and "artsy" game so if that isn't you're thing then stay away from it, however if that genre is your thing then Limbo is brilliantly dark and gloomy. I've also heard that Closure and Skullgirls are also very good but I know absolutely nothing about them so I'd research them a little bit before you buy them.

I would recommend the two Trine games. They're gorgeous, fantasy themed sidescrolling platformers with fun combat. And they're even more fun if you have two friends to join you.

Apart of that, Castle Crashers is a rather entertaining hack and slash arcade game and I can't recommend Limbo enough.

I was about to say Journey, but seeing as you've already played it, I have no need.

Castle Crashers is on there now, although I've only played the 360 version, so I'm not sure how different the two are.

Yeah I have Castle Crashers, Scott Pilgrim AND Limbo all on my Xbox 360 so I've played them already, kind of sick of CC and Limbo I might get again, what I'm really looking for is a game with good replay value, fun CO-OP, and a good sense of adventure

Do you have Flower? If you enjoyed Journey, chances are you'll like it as well.
Persona 3 got released recently, if you haven't played it on PS2 already.
If you're into 2D fighter games there's Skullgirls which turned out to be pretty great, both visually and gameplay wise.

I liked Pixeljunk Eden a lot. Really relaxing and pretty. I'm eagerly anticipating Retro City Rampage.

The only PSN games I've bought so far are Pacman Championship Edition DX and Scott Pilgrim. I've been meaning to get my hands on Journey, Costume Quest, Burnout Crash, Infamous 2: Festival of Blood and Galaga Legions DX for some time now.
