I've not actually played the first two, so I'll probably hold off on that.

Too recent and still too pricey. I did just buy a whole console (well, that and the fact that the Steam Sale is ongoing), so I'm a bit short on money at the moment.

Ground Zeroes or Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn

Oh I almost forgot infamous 2:o it was THE thing back then. I am out of the gaming scenario for a while now :( even last of us and red dead redemption were amazing. Try red dead tho

Last of Us and the Uncharted series. :p

Get the game where you do stuff and win. (!!!)

Best accident of your life.
Also what kind of games do you enjoy playing?

I second The Last of Us and the Uncharted trilogy.
Get Borderlands 2 so you can play my favorite game with me duh

Ground Zeroes? What's it about? Never heard of it, so I'm curious.

As for FFXIV, I'm not sure I'll bother playing it before they discontinue it... I'm kind of a lazy console gamer.

I almost did buy one of the Infamous games when I got the console... though I was craving becoming more up-to-date with my sports games, so I went that route instead.

Last of Us looks too zombie-filled for me. I mean, I don't mind zombies in games, but I'm also not a fan of them. May still get it anyway...

Red Dead might make it to the list, but is it better experienced on PS3 or 360?

Already covered thoughts on Last of Us above.

Should I start Uncharted from the beginning if I get it?

Well, for consoles, sports games with game modes where you run the team and RPGs. Also games that have local multiplayer or can otherwise be played socially. My favorite genres on the PC don't typically translate well to consoles.

Hmm... Borderlands 2 for PC, PS3, or 360...? Decisions, decisions...

I'M NOT ALONE!!!!

You probably know what all the best games are already then (FIFA, Madden, NHL, etc.), but you should definitely pick up some of those.

You mean FIFA (latest is 11 on the 360), Madden (latest is 08 on the 360), NHL (latest is 05 on the PS2), 2K (latest and only is 13 on the 360), and The Show (latest is 12, which I got last night with the PS3)? So you're telling me the EA NHL game is the best NHL game?

Yeah, those are basically the top sports games to choose from. Haven't tried NBA 2K myself since I'm not a big basketball fan, but I've only heard good things about it.

The NHL 2K games on the PS3 were pretty bad- so much so that they cancelled the series a few years back. I'd obviously recommend NHL 14 if you were to get a game, but if you don't care about online play that much and are looking for a cheaper option, NHL 11 was one of the best in the series. (it's arguably better than 12/13 as far as gameplay goes).

I think I'll opt for an iteration that has Parise and Suter on the Wild, thank you very much. :P

Ah, so you want the one that'll make EA the most money. Makes sense.

I would highly recommend:

GTA V
Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (Also definitely get the three DLCs if you can. They're great!)
Ratchet and Clank Series; (Tools of Destruction, Quest for Booty, A Crack in Time.)

If I think of others, I'll let you know! :)

why didnt you accidentally get a ps4? fifa 14 on that is so freakin realistic

Way to make it sound like I'm deliberately feeding the evil empire!

$400 for a PS4 (not a lot of games yet) vs. $160 for a PS3 (a huge library of games). I think I know which I'd choose.
