I've only had xbox until last week when I bought my first ps3. The only game I got was gt5 with it and I'm wondering what other games are pretty good for ps3. On xbox I played forza, gears of war, cod, a little bf3, halo and a small amount of borderlands 1. On all those games I strictly played multiplayer only. Not because I don't like sp games, but because I felt obligated to play online since I was paying a monthly fee. Now that I'm on a free service, I want to delve into the sp department since I don't have the fee hanging over my head. What's some good recommendations?
 
Yea I was looking into uncharted. I had rdr before, played it and goofed up on the starting missions somehow and didn't feel like redoing it so I traded if in lol
 
Batman Arkham City is on both consoles so it doesn't matter as long as you play it. It's the best game of all time I believe.
 
All the Uncharted series, Metal Gear Solid (old but good), Killzone 2 &3 and Little Big Planet (1 and 2) all spring to mind as good solid exclusives on the PS3 that I've enjoyed.

However from PSN I would recommend Journey and Flower, they are not your standard game at all, but in my opinion two of the best games ever made.
 
I support all of these recommendations. I also enjoy Tekken Tag Tournament 2, but I don't really play PS3 games any more.

To elaborate on Scaff's recommendation of Metal Gear Solid, there are seven games in the series available on PS3 and as the storyline is continuous from the very first game (made in 1987) to now I recommend you play them all.

There's Metal Gear Solid, the PS1 game, available on PSN. Then there are the HD remakes of Metal Gear Solid 2, 3 and Peace Walker on PSN separately or you can buy all three on a disc which is probably cheaper. Metal Gear Solid 4 is only available on disc though. As a great little bonus, the HD remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 also contains the ports of Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2.

If you play through them all (either in chronological order (MGS3, Peace Walker, MG, MG2, MGS, MGS2, MGS4) or release order) the saga will probably blow your mind. Or it'll drive you insane, one or the other, it's all good fun at the end of the day. Oh and only Peace Walker has multiplayer features. MGS4 used to have an entire multiplayer game, Metal Gear Online, but it was shut down and then patched out of the game. Peace Walker feels very similar to that though (but obviously with inferior graphics as it's a PSP port). That reminds me; if graphics are important to you then you might want to take a look at the games before you buy them, only MGS4 has up to date graphics and even they haven't aged brilliantly!
 
I reccomend the uncharted series, killzone trilogy, infamous, and god of war all of these series have great singleplayer modes
 
Heavy Rain is an experience you'll never forget. You should also check out Okami HD on psn. A great zelda-like game with beatifull graphics and gameplay.
 
The Resistance series is really awesome and a Playstation exclusive, I highly recommend you check out the latest one (Resistance 3) at the very least. The Orange Box is a great collection, and Call of Duty-World at War has an awesome single-player campaign. While Red Dead Redemption is widely considered an excellent game, I did not like it very much... I guess that's a matter of preference. I only play GT5 and shooter games so that's all I can personally recommend.

There are many garbage games out there so beware those too.
 
Dudes please! Bioshock 1 + 2 and 3 is coming!


I thought his main focus was on exclusives? He already has a 360 and could play Bioshock on those. Thats why most of our suggestions have been exclusives.
 
Batman Arkham Asylum and City and God of War series are just superb. Can't recommend them highly enough.

Uncharted, Metal Gear, Assassins Creed and Red Dead Redemption are all very good too.
 
Infamous 1 + 2 just comes to mind!

Some just other games really worth trying:

Call of Duty Classic
Medal of Honor Frontline HD
Shadow of Collossus HD
