Couple more games to look out for this year: Metal Gear Solid: Rising, Final Fantasy XIV & God of War 3.

If you haven't already gotten it it's $60 at dick smith at the moment. Great price for an awesome game.

Prototype is another fun game. Just mindless destruction & JB did have it for $29 around xmas. not sure if its still that price there tho..

God of War 3 trilogy looks amazing
Race driver grid really could've been the bees knees if they included the DLC of bathurst and some v8 supercars

Dante's Inferno is out today...

Read the IGN review and they only gave it a 7/10....I think I'll buy it at EB and take it back if I don't like it!

I got Dante's Inferno!

What a cool game!! Some of the moves are brutal...And I like how you can choose a righteous or unholy path...OR a mix of both!

I've finished the 1st circle of hell. 8 more to go!! The bosses are HUGE!

8 and 9 are completely different

in saying that, 9 is still very good.

X is one of the best though

Tuesday!

I preordered mine with a limited edition hardcover guide too.

I'll play the game once, then play through again with the guide!

Ive played heavy rain for 20 mins and its ok, different, but not so exciting yet but I think its all part of the intro.

I said this in another thread but there is becoming a blurred line between games and interactive stories IMO.

Im playing COD4 for the first time, pretty cool.

I bought Heavy Rain today. The start is a bit slow, but it picks up. Beautiful graphics too.

Looking forward to playing more of it.

I played the demo on the PS3 and absolutely hated it, then when the beta came on the PC, much much better.

If you've got a decent PC, better off than on PS3. Also helped that when I bought it off Steam it was probably half the price than that of the PS3 version. ;)

Didn't know that. Arkham Asylum was awesome. Star Wars not bad either.

I'm hanging for God of War 3.

Only just got into GTA 4 the other week...there's so many hours of gameplay in it already...

Looking forward to getting Bad company I liked the original - been playing MW2 a bit online thats great fun - havent had much chance to play any online games for awhile (built a house got married and recently my wife gave birth) Found it hard competing against heartbeat sensors thermals sights and damn harrier's. Getting easier now as I start to unlock more goodies.

Has anyway played MAG - if so what is it like?

By the way, check out www.play-asia.com for cheap, genuine PS3 games. For example, you can buy a genuine copy (English Hong Kong version) of Battlefield Bad Company 2 for $55 AUD. see link --> http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-...2-70-39f5.html

PS3 games are not region encoded at the moment, you just need to make sure you buy an english language version.
