What do you like?

My favorite game on the PS3 has been Valkyria Chronicles if you like turn-based tactical role-playing game with a good story.
Fallout 3 is good.
Rachet and Clank was fun.
You can go and download FFVII in the PSN store.
I hear Infamous is pretty sweet...I'd like to get that next.

I have inFamous rented and waiting for me but haven't started yet since I'm finishing up Crackdown.

Same with Red Faction.

I've heard good things about both. And Crackdown is great fun if you haven't played it yet.

To quote penny arcade:
We had another comic about Infamous, one I liked, but Gabriel gunned it down. When I spoke on the game earlier, I specifically left out any mention of the writing so that I could devote an entire post cataloging every deformity of its tainted carapace. The urge to do this is draining away, though, even as I construct the introductory paragraph. Let's just get it over with It's so bad that they must have meant it to be bad, but it isn't so bad that it reverses polarity and become sublime. That's a fairly complex trick to pull off, and when you don't manage it, you end up with something ike Infamous: not a celebration of the comic book form, but a stern indictment of it. The alignmen scenarios they cook up here - the ones Gamespot calls " Powerful moral choices" - are the most contrived parodies of ethics to be found this side of some silent movie mustache twirler, villainously astride the tracks bound virgin in tow. Under optimal circumstances, I should not "LOL" when presented with a game's penultimate decision - but really, they give you no choice.

funny how they have nothing to say about playing the actual game.

story gripes are legit, but I've heard the gameplay is fun. I'll probably try it out next week.

They have a demo on the PS3 that I was playing last night...pretty cool.

Dear Penny Arcade,

I was thinking of Conan from that clip saying "you have GOT to shut the [expletive] up."

Have we figured out which console is best yet?

XBOX 360
