Yup, on June 15th, I finally got a PS3. I actually forgot to type about it because of E3 and of course all the wrestling stuff going on, but, yup, I got one. I got White Knight Chronicles, 3D Dot Game Heroes, and Demon's Souls (OMG What a great game, more on that later.) I also bought Valkyria Chronicles, God of War 3, InFamous, and Heavy Rain. I played Uncharted from GameFly and I'm getting Last Rebellion and Folklore sometime this week. All the games I have are FANTASTIC, especially InFamous, Heavy Rain, and Demon's Souls. 3D Dot Game Heroes is exactly like I thought it was going to be, a great homage to Zelda. It's Zelda in every way and that's not a bad thing. WKC is like FF12, a single player MMORPG. It's good, a lot better than I heard from reviewers. Valkyria Chronicles is a fantastic SRPG. What a little gem that turned out to be. I didn't play it that long, but I can tell it's going to be a great game. Uncharted is my favorite action game on PS3 right now, that is, until I play Uncharted 2. Great story, great gameplay, and challenging. Fantastic outing by Naughty Dog. God of War 3 is God of War. What else can I say? Great game. Now, for my favorite.
Heavy Rain is the biggest surprise. I knew what I was getting into when I bought the game, but it surprised me how well the gameplay was. It also keeps me on the edge of my seat. I also like how many ways a certain scene can change. I did the part of the game when you go into the store to ask the clerk questions, then the robber comes in. The first time it happened, the clerk was shot, but the second time I did it, I knocked the robber out. So many ways to do a scene. I played for three hours, and I can't wait to play more.
InFamous is also a huge surprise. I played the demo and I didn't like it too much. It's probably because I played it at a friend's house, but it's great. It's funny how Sucker Punch, Naughty Dog, and Insomniac made great adult video games for the same system. It's a great superhero open world game. I love karma systems in games, but I think InFamous takes the cake with decisions. I love how the one cut scene changed because I was a bad guy and how he zapped a bystander. Another great PS3 exclusive.
Demon's Souls, Demon's Souls, Demon's Souls. I said Heavy Rain was the biggest surprise, but I think I lied. Demon's Souls has become the game I love the most on PS3. Dare I say, the best game I played on PS3, actually it may be the best from 2009 along with AC2 and Batman AA. It's BRUTAL. I mean, it's BRUTAL. When you beat the first boss and you cheer, you know it's going to be a rough behind game. I beat four bosses so far and I've had trouble with three of them. I met another boss and I can't even beat him. Though it's hard, it's fun to play. It's fun to die and try something new the next time. Trial and error has never been so fun. Demon's Souls is one of those special action American sytle RPGs that I really get into. I have 13 hours in Demon's Souls so far and it doesn't look like that number is going to stop.
Overall, my two week PS3 experience has been FANTASTIC. I still want to play Uncharted 2 really bad and Trinity Universe, but other than that, I'm completely satisfied. The PS3 is ruling my life right now.
