Replace RDR with LBP and MW2 with KZ2 and I agree with this.

TheLastGuardian5620d ago

Why do so many gamers on N4G dislike RDR? It deserves all the praise it gets from games journalists. It's my favorite game of this generation so far.

the_best_player5620d ago (Edited 5620d ago )

Rockstar were better alot last gen with games.

Ratchet5105620d ago

because people are getting tired of the GTA like games. it is also overrated, the only difference is the cowboy style of the game but everything else is like gta.

Arup025620d ago

It's because it's not a PS3 exclusive.

InactiveUser5619d ago

A lot of good games listed, but also a bunch of games that I wouldn't add if I made a list.. like Rock Band and UFC. There's also 2 Call of Dutys and no Resistance? That I disagree with completely.

Also missing are The Orange Box which is a great, quality bang for your buck with Half-Life 2, HL2: Episodes 1 and 2, and also Portal [and TF2, which sucks IMO, but included, so no big complaints]. No Ratchet & Clanks listed. No Fallout 3, even though it was Game of the Year by some publications. No GT5.

Obviously it's just a top 24 so you can't include everything, but I wouldn't include UFC, Rock Band, etc. over the ones I mentioned.

Usually I make fun of people saying "Where's _____ game!!!!??", but decided to join in on this one.

goflyakite5619d ago

I have 15 of those games. :D

One thing, wtf is MW2 doing at #5? It's one of the worst in the series. (MW2 & BO on there but not COD4 is also stupid)

My list is:
1. MGS4
2. UC2
3. LBP
4. Demon's Souls
5. Valkyria Chronicles
6. God of War 3
7. Dead Space
8. Killzone 2
9. Bioshock
10. UC1

TheDivine5620d ago

The must have ps3 games for me are
demons souls
mgs4
valkyria chronicles
uncharteds
white knight
killzone 2
The rest are multi, there are lots of exclusives butthese are the only ones i care to buy. Ps3 needs more jrpgs/wrpgs. I use my 360 for those.

Spitfire_Riggz5620d ago

The greatest thing is that the number one game for the ps3 mgs4, is only 9.99 used at gamestop! Can you believe that?? If any of you crazy bastards dont have it yet you can get a GREAT game for less than a PSN title! C'mon Son!

InactiveUser5619d ago

Disagreed for Valkyria Chronicles. I don't know why everyone is so in love with that game. The art design is neat with it looking like a sketch, but the gameplay is like playing a board game. I don't see how people can list games like MGS4, UC2, GoWIII, etc. that are pretty hardcore and have fast gameplay along with the other ones you listed and then list VC with its limited movement and snails pace gameplay.

I think Civilization: Revolution is a much better slow tactical/strategy type game.. and as much as I liked it personally, I definitely wouldn't be putting it in the top 5.

dragon825619d ago

Because some of the best games this generation are multi-platform games.

InactiveUser5619d ago

...because it says "Games", not "Exclusives"?

MintBerryCrunch5620d ago

could have added some PSN titles...a lot are worthy of being in a top whatever list considering the price you are paying for some of them

ForzaGT5620d ago

flower should be in this list

starcb265619d ago

I thought you said forza should be on that list lol.

dorron5620d ago (Edited 5620d ago )

BFBC2 should be above any COD.

Uncharted 1 and GT5 are missing too.

badz1495619d ago

I consider it as one of the best game I've played on PS3. what more amazing is, it's a launch title and Insomniac's 1st FPS and it gets everything right!

JUDALATION5620d ago (Edited 5620d ago )

Crappy list with Overrated games... take all cod games out... take out ufc...and enslaved... move Little big planet and Infamous way up and add GT5... Uncharted 1 ...MAG... battlefield bc2 and especially Valkyra Cronicles!

Downtown boogey5620d ago

MGS4 is first and Uncharted 2 is second.
That's all I want.

Spitfire_Riggz5620d ago

I was happy to see God of War 3 up there too. Definitely some of the greatest games I have ever played.

Cylon4515620d ago

I was surprised to see UFC and Enslaved even on the list.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle20d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7720d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde27d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy27d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12527d ago (Edited 27d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Relientk7728d ago

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga28d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199228d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga28d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman27d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger28d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box28d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion27d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7228d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7528d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit28d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14928d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7728d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
