Default A new PS3 owner!

My XBOX 360 died (again) last week. I boxed everything up and sold it off, sans the broken console.

I picked up a new 160 GB PS3.

I have Borderlands, Black Ops, and MLB The Show 11.

I have Uncharted 2, Motor Storm, UFC Undisputed 2010, and Metal Gear Solid 4 coming from eBay.

Does anyone have any recommendations for games that they are enjoying or games that are "must haves?"

Dragon age is good along with the god of wars series. Right now I am totally addicted to dc universe. I have to pay a monthly fee, got discount for $10 a month, but am completely happy with game. Play mostly on weekend nights. It's set up like city of heroes or world of Warcraft. If you like those kind of games then this ones for you.

I second this, the biggest thing is that you can stream movies from your computer right to your tv (download torrents). You can also play all your music and view pics.

I always play Black Ops, GTA4 and Borderlands that I just picked up.

If you enjoy RPG, might I suggest The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion? It's an older game that could be had for cheap, but you'll get A LOT of gameplay out of it. The sequel, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is being released later this year and looks beautiful!

Infamous, God of War 3 (a PS3 must), Valkyria Chronicles (trust me on that one, it's one of the most overlooked yet awesome PS3 games out there), Demon Souls (so challenging it hurts!), and 3D Dot Heroes (if you like games like Legend of Zelda).

Well, I have been playing the first God of War. It's just okay. Is GOW III better?

Uncharted 2 is off the hook.
