Just bit the bullet and finally bought a ps3, it comes with ratchet and 
clank, but i can see me trading this fairly soon.

So what are the best games for the ps3 at the moment? Not interested in 
Oblivion, played that on the PC and bored me to death.

Thanks all.

Me.

In essence, yes. But 6 tracks plus reverses, 40 cars, online and TV 
modes means it's actually bigger than most full releases. And a lot 
better. It's just 0.002% the size GT5 will be.

Only if you're wrong. Though it is only 6 hours long tops, so probably 
best to rent it, then if you find yourself loving it like I did, go buy 
it. But it's well worth a weekend's rental.

It's OK, just a bit uninspiring and repetitive.  It's quite pretty but 
it's nothing that hasn't been done (better) hundreds of times before.

i can't be wrong, as i never made a statement.

but i was merely referring to reviews ive read that called it a bit
mediocre.

I will offer simple suggestions -

Resistance fall of Man
This starts off as a very trad 1st person shooter, but includes some
great levels, and on a big HD screen is great for two player

Super Stardust HG
A download from the sony store - prob the best arcade shooter I have
played since...errr

It's not all it should be, it's one of those games that feels a bit "oh that 
would look good, lets do it" games. Personally I don't like the ways it 
plays.

'Quite' pretty? It makes Gears Of War look archaic!

The cutscenes are well worth playing it for though, as are the ranged combat sections (aftertouch is 
great!)

If you haven't played Half Life 2 on the PC already, Orange Box is well worth it. Portal is fun but short 
and I can't make head or tail of Team Fortess 2. Then again, I never did like PVP only games.

It may have been. But it didn't, and doesn't, make the best *looking* 
game of 2006 *look* archaic.

on consoles, from using keyboard and mouse then using a gamepad it's 
atrocious.

I used to think that, but some games seem to suit it better than 
others.

I hated playing the original Half Life with sticks, but HL2 seemed 
to be much better.
Oblivion is fine with them, too - although the main issue I've ever 
had (coming from keyboard/mouse control background) was due to the 
sensitivity.

I think it just takes a bit of getting used to more than anything.
