So, I've got a much unused so far PS3, and have recently messed around with a bunch of demos, and am wondering if anybody has any of the games and has an opinion on whether they are worthwhile.
I mainly play RPG/adventure or action type games, although arcade and puzzle games are good as well. No first person shooters in the suggestions.
No posts saying 'blah blah 360/Wii is better.' I have a Wii and don't want a 360.
I have downloaded the demos for and am considering:
Drake's Fortune: I read it is good, and it is quite impressive in graphics. The gameplay is alright, and seems like it may get repetitive, although I'm not sure. I've also heard that there is a great plot, although the demo doesn't have any.
Devil May Cry 4: I played DMC3 when I borrowed it from a friend, and it was a really fun game. DMC4 looks pretty good too. One minor issue I'm worried about is that the combos available will be too limited, because you only have one weapon, whereas in DMC3 you can switch between 2 weapons, which you pick from a pool of 5 at the start of each level. Are there more weapons found later in DMC4, or more moves or some such?
Bladestorm: Looks like a pretty cool game. Similar to Dynasty Warriors, but slightly more believable. The demo seems fun, and it seems like if you get bored you can always try a different type of squad.
Dynasty Warriors Gundam: By it's very idea it is somewhat ridiculous, although not necessarily in a bad way. I didn't get too much of an impression from the demo. Seems like it could be fun if the items and customization is good and there are enough characters.
Assassin's Creed: I didn't actually get the demo for this, but I've seen it played at a friends and heard many positive suggestions, with the only negative that it gets a little repetitive.
The only game I have on PS3 so far is Ratchet and Clank 5. Great series, although this newest one felt a little less interesting on multiple playthroughs. I think it is because most of the weapons became obsolete once you get a little ways into the game, so you don't have many options.
Also, Nucleus, a game you buy from the online store, is one I am going to get as soon as I have multiple controllers, as it is a good arcade style multiplayer.
