So I inherited a PS3 with these games...

Shot a load of rabid dogs today, that animal cruelty continues apace.

CODs aren't THAT bad. They're just.. wait, maybe they are.

cods are murder simulator amusement park rides

I needed something to play blu-rays etc on and a co-worker was selling his PS3 cheap so I picked it up. I have not gamed in many years. It came w/ these, plus I picked up a couple others for a fiver from Value Village:

Metal Gear Solid Collection
Ratchet and Clank Future - A Crack in Time
The Last of Us
Heavy Rain
Elder Scrolls Oblivion
Beyond: Two Souls
Uncharted 1+2
Infamous 1+2
LEGO Star Wars + LOTR

So far I've tried the LEGO games (not for me), Heavy Rain (kinda cool but some o_0 writing/storytelling choices), Last of Us (very cool). Trying to figure out what else I should pick up, pls no Batman or US Army / cop shit

I've only played the first MGS so I'm looking forward to digging into those (it's the comp that features all the games up to MGS4)

I'm looking just for single player or local multiplayer shit, also.

I picked up the Dead Space games again recently for next to nothing and they are great fun.

I'll check those out. I'm amazed at how fast game prices plummet.

Demons' Souls, which you can only play on the PS3.

Some stuff is PSN only (like PS2 games) and there are frequent sales where a lot of stuff is much cheaper than usual, 50% or more off, so keep an eye out for those.

My advice would be to entertain yourself with what games you already own and gradually pick up others when a good deal appears, either online or on a b&m store.

Portal 2. One of the all-time greats. I'd recommend the first, as well, but you can only get it in the out of print Orange Box. I don't know if they made a physical copy of Fez, but it's available in the PSN store and highly recommended.

The games I've spent the most time playing are Just Cause 2, Skyrim, and GTA Online. Good dumb fun with (obviously) high replayability.

it's one of the older/bulky models so it can play PS2 discs

and thx for the recs y'all's

you got one of the backwards-compatible ones? nice!

Apparently yes, though I have not actually tested that yet
