Purple = PS3 exclusive

Due for release soon:

• Final Fantasy Versus XIII

note: I've missed a few RPGs from this list as many of them are only going to appeal to fans, so cannot be viewed as overall must have PS3 games. The PS3 RPG list also found in this forum is being used to list and talk about those instead.

PSN Games (download only):

• Braid
• Flower
• Gravity Crash
• Pixeljunk Shooter
• Shatter
• Trine

Adding to this list:

Any more games you can think of? List them below and I will add them into the list.

I can only think of Vanquish to add to that list, you allready list the other must-have full releases I can think of.

There's some more PSN titles to get though, Pixeljunk Shooter is definitely one. And everyone should play Flower once. Braid and Trine is on there if you haven't allready got them on a different platform. Also I like Gravity Crash for that wonderful retro feeling, and Shatter is a great breakout game with a fantastic soundtrack.

Maybe I should add a downloads list under the main one, for the smaller PSN titles you mentioned. I had forgotten about Trine and Braid as I have them both on the PC. Will add the list now.

And I agree regarding Shatter. That was a free download last month and i really enjoyed it. It does get a bit too complicated/confusing once it gets to the circular levels though.

- Infamous
- Batman Arkham Asylum

Would you say Mirror's Edge is really that good? I found that whist it was unique and fascinating, the game was quite short and not actually that great after a bit of time playing. More a tech demo than a full game.

I had forgotten about a lot of those games being available on PS3 because I already have them all on PC. Will add them into the list. Batman is especially great. Got bored of Infamous quite quickly though.

Do you think I should colour code the list for exclusive titles, and cross platform?

[Teho]

I bet you got quickly bored of Infamous because you played Prototype extensively. For me it was the other way around, I played Infamous fist and really liked it. Played through it twice to see both the good and evil sides. I ended up hardly touching Prototype though.

I still have to play Infamous, only tested the demo, I played 10 hours Prototype, but then I got a bit bored and stopped, but never returned to play it again.
