*Help me pick a game for someone*

Thinking about it for the price of GoW3 you could probably pick him up BOTH Batman and Uncharted 2, second hand if not brand new.

Batman is nothing like watchmen and both (batman and uncharted NOT watchmen) are purely awesome. Batman is really new and different and although some people say its repetitive (some bosses do repeat) you never notice it and it is purely a brilliant and amazingly well made game.

Uncharted 2 is similar in quality but different in gameplay and often has you sitting on the edge of your seat while you're playing, with online multiplayer to boot.

I've seen Batman for as little as £18 new around a few places recently and Uncharted 2 from £25, that's roughly $60 I think for both together? It'd be a shame to miss either of these games as they both truly stand out from the crowd.


I wouldn't recommend Heavy Rain for a kid, it's an amazing game, but more like a mature film than an action game, relies a lot on emotional attachment to the characters and wanting to look after your family.

 

Edit: Just to add, I've played a couple of hours into Darksiders and it seems ok, but nothing as outstanding as Uncharted 2 or Batman, especially with God Of War 3 coming out it's not worth getting it just yet imo as its a hack and slash like GoW, but not to the same standard. I've got and completed all the games mentioned (apart from not completed darksiders).
