My PS3 experience thus far!

[Bodhesatva]

So, here are the games I've tried thus far on my PS3!

(rented) Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction

Good game, the dialogue is good (and as noted, I rarely like dialogue in games), largely because it stays silly and light. Having just come off Galaxy I'm a little less impressed than I otherwise would be, but it's still the second best platformer I've played in the last three years.

(own) Everyday Shooter

I was less impressed with this than I thought I would be, but it's not bad by any means. A good time waster -- I was simply expecting something a bit more due to the hype.

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

Yes, I know this is old, but hot diggity do I still love this game. Some games age well, others do not: this one still shines.

(rented) Uncharted: Drakes Fortune

I can tell this is a good game, but it's just not for me. I don't enjoy the story and aiming with analog sticks just infuriates me.

(own) Super Stardust HD:

This is the best game I've played thus far, and is definitely in my top ten games of the year, if not my top 5. Great stuff, I'm very impressed.

(own) Planet Earth:

Yes, this is a Blu Ray movie and not a game, but I wanted to point out that I AM using the HD features of this console (it was my primary reason for getting it really, since I just got a 50'' HDTV), and goodness does this movie look good in HD. It's definitely the ideal "see how good HD looks?" movie.

Thus far, I'm very satisfied with my purchase, for those who care. I wasn't expecting to play this many games this quickly -- due to my hardcore MMORPG/FPS roots, I rarely play more than 10 games a year -- but I've enjoyed expirementing and already found a few gaming gems (I'll be playing Super Stardust months from now) to go along with my new HD player. In short: even for someone like me that isn't immediately interested in the main Playstation fare (Uncharted, Heavenly Sword, and other story driven action/epic games), there is enough on the PS3 to make a person happy.
