Best PS3 Games ?!

Recently I jailbroke my PS3 to firmware 4.46.1 so that i can download all the new games for it (i had 3.55 before and most new games won't work with that firmware).
So here's a list of games (as of 14.oct.2013) that i think are worth playing, with some of my personal comments about them.
But keep in mind, this is list of games that are ONLY on PS3 (or on other consoles, but NOT on PC, games that are also on PC are not in this list).

Beyond: Two Souls
Very unique and weird gamestyle. It's about a girl who was born with two souls, where one of them being a spirit / entity protecting her. Story is not in chronological order, i personally don't like this style movies and games, where you first play the future and then past and then future again ..etc, but there are exceptions where such style is quite good and this being one of them.
If you don't want to spoil it, do not read about this game or watch any videos, because this game is good for playing only once. It's like a movie, once you know what happens its boring already.
Anyway, storyline is really well made. it's drama and horror style.
Gameplay itself is very minimal tho, 80% of the game is in cinematic style where you just have to press buttons few times to dodge something or hit an enemy.
Only few areas where you can explore a bit, but there's nothing to find anyway.
What i don't like about it, is that as "Aiden" (ghost / soul) you can only interact with certain things and characters, they could have added more things you can interact with and control everyone, in some events you can take over other humans, but only certain ones. also you can kill only certain people on the scene, not all enemies. so again, its very cinematic style gameplay where you are limited to the ways you can take out your enemies.
Still, i highly recommend this game.


The Last of Us
Zombie apocalypse game with very unique, cool and dramatic storyline, i really liked the story. I didn't like that player can't make choices, it was like watching a movie, so you can't choose who dies, who lives, where you go ..etc, but nevertheless it was really cool.
There are about 7-8 different weapons + upgrades and 2 characters you play as.
Ending was unique i have to say, even tho you could not make a choice (character you play as made it for you), both choices he had to choose from, were both very difficult, so there is no "happy" ending, which is quite cool i have to say, because most games and movies always end with the idiotic "live happily ever after" style.


Grand Theft Auto V / GTA 5
Do you really need any comments?
actually you do, read my BLOG post about the disappointments in GTA 5.
I won't be repeating same things here, just read about it on blog.


Gran Turismo 5
It's one of the best racing games on PS3, but bit short compared to GT1 - GT4. Still it has tons of vehicles to choose from and also some tuning and damage is also included (in previous parts cars took no visual damage).


Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Very short compared to previous parts, but still MGS has the unique and cool game style, with some humor included in it. I still haven't finished it, game started crashing in some point and somehow i managed to delete it. Gotta get it again.


Also i tried out Red Dead Redemption, best way to describe this, is to say "it is GTA zombie apocalypse game in old western age" Downloading WWE 13 too, which seems quite cool game to try, but WWE 14 is also coming out this year, so i wanna try that too.
Know any games i left out? list them here!

The Last of US is indeed awesome for its story.

Red Dead Redemption
By Rockstar, I've only heard of how awesome it is, never actually played it.

I did mention it btw, didn't you see? It seems ok, but as many may know by now, i don't like games that take place in old age ..and this is one of them.

Didn't see it earlier, only saw the one's highlighted.

Also check out Uncharted series(similar to tomb raider) and Infamous + Infamous Second son(similar to prototype).
I would say mortal kombat 9 too but its on PC now so no need.

infamous second son looks awesome, but isn't it for ps4? its not out yet tho.
haven't checked infamous either, still downloading beyond: two souls and wwe 13, ps3 games are fucking gigantic compared to pc games. 20-30gb easy lol, makes no sense really, since graphics are lowered a lot and we all know that movies and textures are what take the space.

Ah yes, wiki mentions Infamous second son as PS4 exclusive.
Amazon lists Infamous 1 and 2 as ps3 exclusive though. Second son is 3rd in the franchise I guess.

Dont forget Uncharted 1 2 3. All those 3 are considered best ps3 exclusives ever.

There is also God of War 3. Many wont be interested in it if they haven't played 1 & 2 on ps2. There are remakes for ps3.

Heavy Rain - Interactive cinematic game like The Last of US. I never played it but I heard it is good.

Azura's Wrath - I don't know if it's good but I watched some people playing it and it's crazy the way the character fights. He loses his arms and still keeps fighting with his legs and kicks ass. It might be good to play once or gets boring very quickly but I am not sure.

Ninja Gaiden Sigma 1 & 2

I'm not looking at old games really, Infamous 1 & 2 look kind a crap, this is why i rarely play console games, they look so stupid and are so limited. Infamous 2 maybe, but it didn't look that good. Infamous 3 looks good tho, but i think its ps4 only, still looks only like Prototype 2, no way ps4 games are better than pc, it is just stupid hope that childish gamer wannabys want to believe, that one day console games are better, but i highly doubt it ever happens.

Uncharted looks bit weird too, i don't know, just looks crappy to be honest.
Heavy Rain is too cinematic for me, i doubt i try it, but storyline seems ok.

I'm still downloading Beyond: Two Souls .. slow torrent.
