    Literally got it a few hours ago, I'm very impressed. Anyway was wondering what games to get. I have Ratchet and have bought Uncharted and Resistence online, I heard Warhawk is pretty good aswell. I also need some friends and have no idea how the friend thing works, add me Schlozz.

    You need MSG4.

    Orange Box is also a good addition if you like the Half Life series.

    You think you don't need to play the other MGS games to enjoy MGS 4? (Please don't think I'm picking on you just because we have disagreed on things in 2 seperate topics) but to be honest MGS has got to be one of, if not the single most confusing series of games ever and jumping straight into MGS4 would be like jumping into the last half hour of the matrix trilogy without having seen the first or second film at all...

    Get Warhawk for sure. I've been addicted to this game for 6 months. I would suggest buying the blu-ray version, and then pick up the 3 booster packs for $15.99. Also if you don't already have a bluetooth headset, I would suggest picking one up. And save some money for: Little Big Planet, Socom, Resistance 2, Motorstorm 2 ( if your into racing games), and whatever games you want!

    MGS4 is ONLY for those who have kept up with the series thus far, it will be too overwhelming to jump into MGS4 for now. but also, look at their mini games, flOw and Pixeljunk series are good arcade games to get, flOw especially. plus they have a PS1 and PSP library. The Last Man looks interesting too.

    Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is a MUST (that is, if you don't have a 360). Best FPS I have ever played and has definitely set the bar for future FPS.

    I do think that you need to be an MGS fan or at least aware of the series to play and enjoy MGS4.

    I know quite a few people who jumped into MGS4 without playing any of the other games. If people do some research and find out some basic background information about the series before playing MGS4, I think they'll be okay. I don't think the story would be as emotional for them if they haven't played the other games, but I think it's still possible to enjoy the game and get the basics of the storyline.

    I played MGS4 without playing any other MGS game, although I did watch my brother play MGS2 a little and I have done some research about the franchise. I still think it's an incredible game.

    I was going to say Uncharted, even though I've yet to play it. This is one game I will need upon getting a PS3.

    I really enjoy Dynasty Warriors 6 and Folklore.

    On PSN Bionic Commando, Super Stardust, and Pixeljunk Monsters are good games. If your into old school RPG's you can download Wild Arms from the PSone section. Thats a classic PS1 era RPG, and one of the top 5 on the system.

    Congratulations! I suggest you pick up Metal Gear Solid 4, Disgaea 3, Burnout Paradise, and Devil May Cry 4. And if you're a real racing fan, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue is simply stellar, but for some people there isn't enough content. I hope you enjoy your PS3, I'll add you soon!

    I  was trying to wait for the MGS4 bundle when that happened in June but when GTA hit in Aril I couldn't resist.  I picked up a 40 gig then, over time I've gotten GTA, Uncharted, Assassins Creed, Skate, MGS4,  Soul Calibur 4, COD4

    Anyone else notice that this is the system of 4's so far.  GTA4, MGS4, Soul Calibur 4, COD 4.

    I remember when I had my original XBOX and I had Halo 2, Amped 2, Half Life 2, MGS2.

    funny, how that happens.

     Not true didn't play any other MGS game except for a short bout of MGS2 but did see some animations and read some story, it did not prevent me in anyway from connecting wiht the characters and having a ball witht he game, MUST BUY.
