What should I get?

[slo212]

So I just had my 21st birthday on saturday and I ended up getting a PS3 as a gift (lucky me ) The thing is, I've been pretty busy so I haven't touched a console in almost 2 years. Since I wasn't thinking about game at the time, I have no clue what to get now.

The only thing I've considered picking up was L.A. Noire, but I wanted to hear some opinions on it first. Are there any good RPGs or other games with replay value that I missed out on?

In the past 2 years you say?

Pick up Fallout 3 or New Vegas if you haven't tried them, enjoyed the both a lot, decent replayability (The downside of the replay being same general storyline, but you can choose how you get there if that makes sense..)

Oh yeah I loved Fallout 3. I made so many different builds when I used to live with my brother. I'll check out some videos of New Vegas and see what's up.

Demon Souls is worth getting for the PS3. It's an amazing exclusive title, but really hard.

I remember Demon Souls. I got pretty far playing with another friend and killing everything with firestorm. I don't have anyone at all to play PS3 with so I don't know if I should get too many online games.

Borderlands
Ghostbusters
LBP 1 + 2
Killzone 2
Heavy Rain
Katamari Forever
Bioshock 1 + 2
3D Dot Game Heroes (pretty much Zelda)

Borderlands was fun, but I maxed 3 chars in 2 days without any effort.

I was surprised when I saw some videos for this. It looks pretty fun, but I wasn't too big on ghostbusters as a kid.

LBP...no

Just saw some videos for Killzone 2...definitely considering grabbing this now.

I wanted Heavy Rain when I saw some streams of it, but now since L.A. Noire is out I was thinking of getting that instead.

I'm looking at Katamari Forever right now...wtf are you making me watch. Should I be this scared?

I gave bioshock a chance a while ago, but it's not for me.

3D Dot heroes doesn't look like something I'd play.


Thanks for the suggestions so far. Right now I'm considering:
L.A. Noire
Fallout New Vegas
Killzone 2
Demon Souls (maybe)

Lost Planet 2
Star Ocean
Valkyria Chronicles
Darksiders
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow
Bayonetta
Nier
Resonance of Fate

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat? LBP is freaking awesome. Even for non exclusives, try out Need for Speed Hot Pursuit. KZ2 is pretty cheap, and I think KZ3 is out or will be out soon so try that out as well. Also try Infamous, a pretty good action type RPG.
