I've been wanting to buy a PS3 for a while now and finally got the Slim & Uncharted 2 bundle this week. I paid €199.99 after using some vouchers I'd been holding on to, and they threw in Fifa 10 with the bundle as well.

Heavenly Sword is a great game that was heavily criticized for being too short.  Still, since the game should be really cheap now, you should consider picking it up.

god damnit.. i really want Valkyria Chronicles  
 
as for games: you have a solid library of games so far. check out GTA IV (imo a MUST OWN) and if you want to fucking smash your controller, check out Ninja Gaiden Sigma....so...hard.. i'm still not finished it.  

Well I was going to say InFamous and MGS4 but your loss 
I suggest Little Big planet, Fat princess, Resistance series, Ratchet and Clank 
Also dude, DJ Hero, is you are interested in that type of music and have the cash for it, get it, its great

Not MGS4? Really? That game blew me away. The Infamous demo didn't do much for me though, and LittleBIGPlanet is great for casual four player platforming. I can't think of any other games that you can't find on the PC; I played the hell out of Fallout 3 on my PS3.
 
Once you're done with the singleplayer experience, I found that the multiplayer portion of Uncharted 2 was surprisingly solid.
 
Happy gaming!

I'm really liking Demon's Souls right now. Like, a lot.

Nice PC case, by the way.  My brother bought the same model, and runs the fans to sound like jet engines.

Batman: Arkham Asylum has some extra Joker content. It's not significant but given the option it's better to go with the PS3 version over 360.

Welcome to the darkside my friend. 
 
I'd recommend Killzone 2, Little Big Planet and Demon Souls. As for Classics you should obviously get FF7 and Meal Gear Solid.

Get Metal Gear Solid 4.  I hear it's 5 hours long. =P

Dead Space - dunno if you bought it on the PC already...apparently the controls were balls.

" Dude, I recommed that you buy these games immediately:  - Demon's Souls - TES IV Oblivion (if you do not already own it on PC/Xbox 360) - Metal Gear Solid 4  For PS1 classics you should get Metal Gear Solid 1, Resident Evil 1, Final Fantasy 7, Final Fantasy Tactics........that is if you do not already own these on the PS1.

Decided to buy Demon's Souls and the first Ratchet and Clank Future game. Importing them from Canada, decided to go for the Deluxe version of Demon's Souls for the heck of it, should have them both next week!

Demon's Souls, period.
 
The Giantbomb team needs to man up and play this game, what a bunch of sissies. This is by far the best game on the PS3 so far - my copy of Uncharted 2 is gathering dust because I'm playing too much Demon's Souls.

I'd like to add another vote for Heavenly Sword, got that when they did it in game club on the Rebel FM podcast and it was awesome....

Demon's Souls huh? From who and how much are you importing it for? I wanted to order a copy of it but I don't know who would sell a relatively inexpensive copy and ship it to Dublin at a fair price.
 
Also, congrats and the PS3 Slim. It's a nice little console. Stilly pretty heavy but excellent overall.

I recomend Disgaea 3 and Valkyria Chronicles

" I recommend MGS4 even though you seem negative on it.I hate MGS as a series,but MGS4 is impressive.If you enjoy anime style fighters done well,then Blazblue:Calamity Trigger is a must have.Blazblue isn't exclusive,but I recommend it on the PS3 over the 360 because of the graphical advantage and the controller.If you're gonna get into Ninja Gaiden,then I say Sigma 2....but it's full price and Sigma might be better to start off with.  As for upcoming exclusives,keep your eyes on these:  God of War 3 MAG (Massive Action Game,an online FPS hosting 256 players and every character is human controlled) Mod Nation Racers (It's like Little Big Planet,but kart racing and character creation) Final Fantasy 13 (Yes,I know it's not exclusive...but why buy it on the 360 now that you have a PS3?)Final Fantasy Versus 13(Same atmosphere as FF13,but whole new game)  "

€50, not including import tax huh? You might as well buy it here...that is, if there even is a European release. Hope you get your games anyway, buying from overseas is never hassle-free.

Ordered it from http://www.videogamesplus.ca/. It worked out at around €50 for Demon's Souls (€75 altogether including Ratchet and Clank and shipping). I'll have to pay import tax when it arrives - I'll let you know how much I'm charged for it as I'm in Dublin too. My order seemed to go through alright, but now their site is listing the deluxe edition as "back order", so not sure if I'll actually get it next week :( "

Deluxe Edition is no longer being made. Back-order means it's out of stock for good. Contact them and find out if that's the case. "

Yea I figured as much, though it was apparently in their stock when I ordered it. I'll check it out tomorrow and settle for the standard edition if needs be! "

The strategy guide is very useful (it explains the black/white tendency stuff and gives stats of almost all enemies you encounter), but if you can't get it there's a demon's souls wiki you can browse. "

You must be so poor if you buy limited edition games. On the other hand, you've got a lot of swanky stuff. I'll say you get the limited edition, since you ordered it at the time so they can't cheat you by giving you the standard edition.

MGS4 (WHICH IS THE BEST GAME EVER!!!) and Killzone 2. And God of War 3 when that is released.
Congratz on new PS3!

get demons souls, you wont be dissapointed, also it is the best game for the ps3, also dirt2 is a wicked racing game

" get demons souls, you wont be dissapointed, also it is the best game for the ps3, also dirt2 is a wicked racing game "

Do you like platformers? I just bought a PS3 as well and I must say I really enjoy Rachet and Clank: A Crack in Time. If theres a game rental service like Gamefly there, then you should pick this one up first. Wipeout HD is another good exclusive worth looking into.

The God of War enhanced collection (for the ps3) is probably a good choice.  Not out yet, but it'll be coming before GoW 3.

My order status was changed to "processing" this morning, so fingers crossed I wasn't too late! I'm a sucker for limited editions of games, but in this case I actually just really prefer the box art on the deluxe. "

I sort of enjoyed infamous...I don't have any other recommendations since you already have uncharted 2.
 
Nice cosair 1000 watt power supply in your picture btw.

Eternal Sonata
 
That's the only console-exclusive game I can think of. I have a review of it if you're interested. Another game I'll mention which is also on PC, but came out semi-recently is Batman: Arkham Asylum. If you haven't checked it out on PC yet, I recommend it. I didn't think I'd like it myself, but rented it and really loved it.

Oblivion 
Ratchet and clank 
metal gear solid 4 
civilization revolution(personal favorite)

God, if you love your family, PS3, and yourself, you will not buy Demon's Souls!
God no... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Motorstorm: Pacific Rift.
