The time has come that i Bacon have purchased a PS3 after having several 360s, /Blame Nige for tempting me.
What id like to know is which PS3 Exclusive games are worth purchasing?
Post them here :D
I was looking at exactly this the other day, there are less good exclusives than you would think!
I shortlisted:
Gran Turismo 5
Unchartered 2: Among Thieves
Killzone 2 - 3 is due out next year
Little Big Planet - 2 is due out next year
God of War 3 - maybe
Heavy Rain - maybe
Resistance 2 - maybe
Theres a new Twisted Metal game coming out next year which looks mental (think Carmageddon with guns)
Id also be very tempted to download Wipeout HD from PSN.
Uncharted 2 thankfully is one of the best games you will ever play :wub:
Single player is jaw dropping at times, it made my top 10 of all time for a reason :cheers:

Thats the thing with GT5 being rushed out. Just not the amount of games out for PS3 there should be even still.
A few of those mentioned above have been pushed back till next havent they? I know little big planet has been delayed.
Being BluRay is a big thing though but while I like a lot of the PS3 we have here the menu just kills it for me. It is an utter gobcrap of a UI, A real pain to use.

Sony evidently are more concerned with rushing security patches out of the door, its pretty much guaranteed that at the minute if you play a game, then wait 2 weeks theres either a game or system update waiting for you, this aside though for your bread and butter actions like loading a game, I dont see how Sonys UI is so bad to be labeled a pain to use.
Oh Bacon Katamari Forever is worth getting if you see it cheap, its just fun, assuming you like the Katamari games.
I didnt realise Sonys UI was bad, I try to avoid all of the fanboi bickering about which console is best. From my own point of view it just works and does exactly what you want it to. Everything you need is in a logical and easy to access place.

Right, last time I checked you put the game in and it loads.

Exactly.
I think the XMB is better than the current revision of the Xbox dashboard.
The old blades one was better than all though, imo.
Dead nation is good, as is PAIN.
This thread is about PS3 Exclusive Games, i dont give two sh*ts about the dashboard, so lets keep it on topic yeh? If you want to have another PS3 vs 360 argument just make another thread.
LittleBigPlanet is still worth picking up to be honest, I bet you can get it under a tenner easily now.
Ive not played it for a while, but I enjoyed it.
Ive also got it for the PSP.
Metal Gear Solid 4 is exclusive is it not? I would recommend it, especially for the few quid you could buy it for nowadays. Beautiful game, with some truely unique gameplay.
For FPS fun, I would definitely recommend Killzone 2, which is an absolute blast online.
Resistance 2 I have heard is brilliant, but never played it myself.
Gran Turismo is on my christmas list. :w00t:
Agreed, Resistance and Killzone are good.
Found MGS boring.
Time Crisis is a laugh, but it can be costly if you cant find a second gun.

I just loved the visuals and the feel of the game and having played MGS since the 1st, the cutscenes did not bore me as Im sure they may have bored others. Im just pleased they can be skipped for future plays! The thrill of sneaking up behind an enemy for the kill I love, aswell as the almost impossible challenge of getting through the entire game without alerting the enemy.
I look at MGS5 as an art game. Hideo Kojima (the brains behind the series if my memory serves me correctly) is a perfectionist and it has been shown in every MGS title to date.
Not for everyone, I will agree, but MGS4 still has me playing it every now and again. Definitely worth a few squid in todays market. -)

Not wanting to stray back OT too much again, but I think XMB is great, well structured/organised and even looks decidedly slick. I havent really paid much attention to the Xbox dash whenever Ive used it but its obviously geared more towards your profile and such whereas PS3 has the home entertainment side with iplayer, TV, BD playback, they are different breeds of machine though and have different menu requirements IMO. Ill be trying out the BD playback for the first time this weekend, exciting stuff for me!
I was going to add Time Crisis to my original list but then realised you would need the gun.
Ive bought Uncharted 2 second hand and I think Ill be alternating between that and GT5 for a while. So what future exclusives are due out that we know of other than Killzone 3 and LBP2? I think there might be a new Dead Nation game coming as well.

And most importantly can stream good quality content straight over a wireless connection... at least it can now Ive got rid of the crappy talk-talk router and replaced that with something sensible.

I cant get the bastard to stream reliably over a cable from my NAS, never mind wireless. This is where the 360 excels, It downloads the file while you play as opposed to just getting as much as you need.
Forgot to add the Motorstorm series, theyre always good for a laugh.
I can stream anything up to 720p over wifi from my PC using PS3 Media Server, no sweat, but sadly wifi is just not good enough for 1080p, it starts okay with some films but eventually leads to stuttering at complex scenes.
