Forums - Sony Discussion - Help a strapped-for-cash Canadian pick some cheap(er) PS3 games

Okay so I'm not really Canadian, but I live in Canada and with luck will be Canadian before too long.

That is beside the point, you lot! Listen.

I am the owner of a 40GB satin silver PS3. It's in pristine condition because the people I got it from (my in-laws) let it collect dust for like two years, but it's Taiwanese so it won't play PS1 or PS2 games that are from my region. ANYWAY

So I want to grab some PS3 games. I would have Valkyria Chronicles already but the game is ass-backwards hard to find in Canada, and if I want to get it from Amazon.ca it'll cost me like $45 Canadian.

So.

Say I want to spend a hundred bucks getting some bitching games for the PS3 to kick-start my collection. I'm fine with them being older games. I'm even fine with them being downloadable, though I generally prefer disc-based.

Can I get some recommendations from you lot? Keep in mind that as a buyer I am essentially Canadian, and prices and availability have to be figured as such. But name me some good games that are fairly cheap and should be easy to find.

And please nobody say MGS4, we are going to try to avoid recommendation cliche here.

Well, Uncharted 2 is probably going to be full price, but it is the best game on the system

Assuming you have internet, LBP is a candidate, as if you can only afford a few games, then it will be good to have one that will last for ages, and LBP will do that



Congrats u finally got a PS3, I knew you wouldn't miss The Last Guardian :), Demon Souls, White Knight Chronicles, Little Big Planet are a few EDIT - nmv on MGS4



Wats your perfered Genres?



oblivion or the darkness

if you like shooters and aint played rb6, get em both



Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

Wii Friend Code: 4094-4604-1880-6889

Since games aren't locked order them cheaper from amazon.com (not amazon.ca) and buy some from bestbuy and gamestop. I got Valkaryia Chronciles 20 USD new.
