So liek, I'm getting a ps3 slim for christmas, black friday for the win, what games should I get for it?

well, theres always little big planet. thats supposed to be good. also, from what i hear, killzone 2, uncharted 1 and 2, and metal gear solid 4 are all very good. of course, the best game on the ps3 will be the last guardian, but its not gonna be out for awhile.

Well the bundle I got comes with lbp and ratchet and clakn.

Will make sure to check out mgs4, killzone, uncharted, etc.

The Uncharted series is fantastic. Both games are tons of fun, albeit quite short (I beat the first one in nine hours and the second in twelve), but the story and gameplay make up for the short length in spades. Both are definitely must-own games. In HD, the gorgous cinematic environments really shine and look incredible.

Warhawk is also an excellent game. Addictive and fun hectic online multiplayer action with lots of explosions. What more could you ask for? Get it! For $40, you can get a copy that comes with a decent Bluetooth headset, making it even better of a deal. Looks just beautiful in HD, as well.

Mirror's Edge is probably the best $20 game I've ever bought. Also quite short, but to me, it was more than made up for by the fun I had playing through it. It's a good challenge, and with multiple ways through most of the levels, you get a good brain excersize in determining the best way to get to where you're supposed to be.

MGS4, from what I've heard, is utterly amazing, but if you haven't played the other games in the series, you'll be totally lost. As for KZ2, personally, I didn't much care for it; I thought the story mode was boring, and online, it's really the kind of game that's best played with friends, and since my friends never played with me even though they were the ones who pressured me into buying it, it ended up being a waste of money for me.

Anyways, some perspective from a big PS3 fan. Hopefully this'll help you on your way!

Get the PS3 versions of Soul Calibur 4, Elder Scrolls Oblivion, Bioshock, and Fallout 3. ONLY get the Orange Box if you can't get the PC version - I hear the PS3 version is very glitchy, probably because Valve doesn't give two flaxs about the PS3.

its EA that has the problem with ps3. from what i have heard, EA wants people to pay for simple bug fixes, and flax.

Valve doesn't like the PS3, at all. I think EA made Valve make the PS3 port of the Orange Box.

EA made Valve an offer they couldn't refuse (Valve would have to put in no work toward the port and they'd still get a good cut of the profits) and EA did a flaxty job. Valve are a bunch of lazy Playstations and don't want to learn how to program for the PS3, even though Sony has supposedly offered to help them out if they wanted it, and since they had nothing to do with the port in the first place, they dumped it. EA won't fix it because it doesn't make them enough money.

That said, however, it's absolutely a fantastic deal and an incredible pack of games if you have no access to a PC capable of running them -- but only then.
