    Multiplats STILL don't count.

  • zombi3grim - July 13, 2012 2:55 p.m.

    Except they do. Because this isnt a best PS3 exclusive list. This is a best PS3 list. ALL games for the PS3, multiplat or not are considered.

  • MetroidPrimeRib - July 13, 2012 7:08 p.m.

    So it should be called "Best Games on PS3 plus some games you can get on 360 and PC so not really"

  • zombi3grim - July 13, 2012 9:04 p.m.

    No. Its called the best games on the PS3. Meaning, you can get them for the PS3. Just because their also available on other platforms isnt relevant. Their ALSO availble on PS3. Its not "best ps3 exclusives." They actually already did that.

  • MetroidPrimeRib - July 14, 2012 12:30 a.m.

    But why would they put multiplats on a best PS3 games list? The PS3 obviously isn't worth shit if they need to stuff the list with multiplats, huh.

  • zombi3grim - July 14, 2012 8:26 a.m.

    Lol, because the games are available on the PS3. If you can play it on the PS3, wouldnt it be smart to include it in the "best ps3 games" list? Not "best ps3 exclusive games list" but "best ps3 games." It IS available on the PS3. It should be included. Its really not a hard concept to grasp...

    Let me break this down for you in terms even a giant marauding simpleton like you can understand. It says "Best PS3 Games". Obviously meaning the best games available solely on the PS3. Adding a bunch of multi-plats on there kind of devalues that, right? Because they are not PS3 games? If you can get them on a console that isn't the PS3 why would you get a PS3? Why even make the list if you're not going to put PS3 games on there? Quick question, what was the first thing you thought about when you saw the name "Best PS3 Games"? Exclusives or multi-plats? If you were thinking multi-plats then you're probably an idiot because the PS3 is the only console with exclusives still coming out. Another thing, do multi-plats on the PS3 have a good reputation of being good? Let me answer that rhetorical question with a non-rhetorical answer with they have an extremely bad reputation. Bayonetta, Skyrim, Borderlands - they don't get the best of the bunch. So why put multi-plats on a "Best PS3 Games" list? Why put multi-plats on at all? Honestly, it's not your fault. It's the people who wrote the articles fault who couldn't find 10 PS3 exclusives worth a shit (there are I assure you) to put onto a list.

    the whole point of this list is for people who have a ps3 and want some advice on which game they should buy for it next, not to start a fanboy war and show which console has better exclusives

  • tyler_14_420 - July 15, 2012 7:43 p.m.

    Shockingly, not everyone who owns a PS3 also owns a gaming computer or an Xbox, you twat. I own all 3 and I still fail to see your point. As was mentioned, they already did a PS3 exclusive list. This is a list for people who have a PS3, and these are the best games they can get for the PS3. You know, shockingly, Arkham City... might... ya'know, still be a good game? Regardless of the platform? So people can buy it on PS3 if they don't have an Xbox, and that's why it applies to this list.

    Holy Editorial Difference, Batman! GR was one of the few review sites that (rightly) called out Heavy Rain for being a sloppy and poorly-executed game. Who compiled this list?

  • aberkromby - July 12, 2012 3:09 p.m.

    There was always something weird about Bioshock for me. I can't deny the amazing level of quality and detail in the game, but somehow I just never got into it. I played through twice, and both times I found myself just grinding my way through without a care in the world.

  • FirLocke - July 12, 2012 3:06 p.m.

    Always support Valkyria Chronicles! 'Cos it's really awesome. Dark Souls too.

  • JMarsella09 - July 12, 2012 3:15 p.m.

    Hell yeah my brother. VC every day son.

  • Socrates9 - July 12, 2012 2:59 p.m.

    Best PS3 disc games: Dark Souls LittleBigPlanet 2 Red Dead Redemption Heavy Rain Motorstorm Apocalypse GTA 4 Metal Gear Solid 4 Infamous 2 Bioshock had an awesome premise, but was such a plain point-and-shoot game. It even lacked the implementation polish that other top tier shooting games had: low variety, lame bosses, and nothing really special.

  • gilgamesh310 - July 12, 2012 2:50 p.m.

    What they said about Bioshock and Uncharted 2 is self inflated nonsense. I love how critics use the phrase 'more than the some of its parts' to excuse whatever shitness might be in a game. Bioshock has mediocre gameplay. It's as simple as that. The story is great but it's stolen from System Shock 2, so it shooting be getting praise from that. Uncharted 2 is a good game and all, but it's not that good and this whole interactive film thing is nonsense. It's a game where gameplay and story are separate. The cutscenes often contradict what goes on in the gameplay. A hero in such a film wouldn't shoot 500 identikit bad guys before cracking light hearted comments to his comrades.

  • slimjim441 - July 12, 2012 2:29 p.m.

    The non-exclusives are god games, but I agree with most other commenters by saying these kinds of lists should exclusively include exclusives. OR, game that were designed to be PS3-centric, like Silent Hill or Castlevania. And everybody stop whining about Heavy Rain. That game kicks ass, okay.

  • rick-reeves - July 12, 2012 1:47 p.m.

    what is great is the fact that half of these games are also on the xbox or moving to the xbox. why can't they make a ps3 list that consist of just ps3 games...oh wait that is because 4 of the 10 games mentioned is the only thing playstation own and 2 of them from what i heard aren't getting sequels.

  • bebl09 - July 12, 2012 6:11 p.m.

    Lol are you for real? For one, there's 5 exclusives, not 4. Also, they could much more easily make a list like this but only exclusives for PS3 than they could for 360. What would be on the 360 list? Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, Halo Reach, Gears, Gears 2, Gears 3, Forza 3, Forza 4, Fable 2, timed-exclusive CoD map-packs?

  • bebl09 - July 12, 2012 6:13 p.m.

    Also I just thought I'd add, wtf does the fact that 2 of them aren't getting sequels have to do with anything? This is about the best games, not the best franchises. Unlike 360, the PS3 actually has a load of exclusives and they don't have to milk the same few franchises every year.

  • brickman409 - July 12, 2012 1:38 p.m.

    whats awesome is that over half of these cost less than $20

  • db1331 - July 12, 2012 1:36 p.m.

    LOL, Heavy Rain. Seriously? You're gonna have to update the list once Okami comes out. Even though it's a port, it's still a better game than most on here.

  • meg127 - July 12, 2012 1:16 p.m.

    This list doesn't make sense. It's made up of games that came out over the past few years. Not ones that came out this year.

  • Cyberninja - July 12, 2012 1:36 p.m.

    It has been changed alot, before it was a 2012 list but I guess they realized they weren't the best ever ps3 games.

  • meg127 - July 12, 2012 7:25 p.m.

    That completely contradicts what is written in the opening paragraph. They had a list for the best games of 2011, then they updated it with the best games of 2012 so far, but now they just have a general list after saying they would update the list as more games came out? So....I guess they didn't like that idea anymore and just went with a general list. Which doesn't make sense.
