    Hiya!  I'm getting a PS3 (thanks to everyone who answered my last topic) and now I need to know which games I should be getting.
    I like pretty much anything, prefferably something like a Hack n Slash, RPG, Shooters, puzzles,  etc.  Soo...pretty much the games worth getting that are not M rated.
    Genre does not matter.

    Thank you. =]

    Definitely Rathcet and Clank.  I bought it "for my girlfriend."  Let's just put it this way.  She hasn't played it for more than an hour and one of us has beaten it.

    You need Warhawk and Uncharted. Those are classics and must have for anyone with a PS3 imho.

    From there, its all personnal tastes. If you like golf, Hot shots golf has great multiplayer from what i've heard.

    Not M rated huh... well I still think you should get MGS4 anyways. But Heavenly Sword=hack and slash that is rated T, Puzzle=Uncharted.. sort of. And play Ratchet and Clank.

    Dude, not allowed or old enough for M games? Sucks. There's gonna be alot of great M ratef games in the PS3 library. But I'd say Burnout Paradise, It'll take you over 100 hours to unlock everything, and Criterion is always updating/patching the game with free new content, so you know you get your $60 worth of.

    Probaly not. First of all it's a timed exclusive for 360 so we have to wait even longer. Second of all, the first one isn't even out yet.

    There's a huge list of worthy games out there, but many of us have small wallets.

    PSN Favorites: Super Stardust HD, Pixel Junk Eden / Monsters, and Bionic Commando Rearmed.
    Games worth renting: Uncharted, Lego Star Wars, Ninja Gaiden: Sigma, Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction. If you can buy these for cheap by all means buy them.
    Games worth purchasing: Warhawk, Soul Calibur IV, Grand Theft Auto IV, Metal Gear Solid IV and maybe ... Disgaea 3? Shoot, I ran out of games that consists of "iv" in the title.

    Outside of GTA IV, I think it's safe to say that they are not "M" Rated. But I'd suggest to double check to be sure.
