Ah. Yeah, for some reason, I can manage TPS games. Okay, scratch the vast majority of my list...
...but keep all the PSN recommendations.
...but keep all the PSN recommendations.
I tried all the demos and they looked REALLY INTERESTING but when combat started I felt close to getting an anxiety attack. I was so frustrated with the shooting mechanisms and dumbed down AI for console gamers. I'm a total "play on hardest" mouse/keyboard type of guy. Playing on Easy and aiming like a french soldier wore down on my patience, quickly.

Pretty much ever game I could think to mention has already mentioned is up here, except for God of War III. Not to start a fanboy war here, but the PS3 library is a little lacking. It's a shame, seing as some of my favorite title ever came from Sony, back in the PS1 and 2 era. I don't know what happened there, but it is a real shame. and with their focus seemingly on the new Move, its likely the really good title still wont be coming, unless Sony forgot to mention them in the rush to try and promote Move, which is an ill fated project in the making. I don't know what happened, but i really do hope sony comes to their collective senses and remembers that good titles sell consoles, and they make more excelent PS3 games such as God of War III, Infamous, Uncharted 2, and Heavy Rain. They've shown they still have what it takes to make instant classic games, so lets get to it in the second half of the consol life. I believe in you Sony, lets see what you can do.

It's certainly easier to read.

I find the RED MUCH easier to read on the DARK THEME than the BLU actually.

I have a black background, so when I type, I can't see what I'm typing, and therefor cannot see potential typos. hence the red.

I have the same problem. I just highlight it all before I hit post.

Brutal Legend. It is funny stuff!!! 
Uncharted 2
Call of Duty: Black Ops (add me, fucker)
Red Dead Redemption (zombie killing online is super fun)
Resident Evil 5
Dead Rising 2
Hmmm, I think I have a zombie fetish.
Curious how someone mentioned the Xbox360 library being better than the PS3 library. Seeing as nearly every game is now cross-platform, that seems a big disingenuous.

Heh, ditto. The only one I wish was on PS3 was Alan Wake.Thats what I was thinking? I mean what, I can't get Halo and play it with my frat bros? Oh darn.
I nearly did for one game...
...until its sequel went multi-platform.

Separate until there's a Game of the Year Edition.
Valkyria Chronicles
I would actually say rent this one if you can. It's an amazing game...for all 7 hours of content there is with no re-play value or much multi-player fun.Brutal Legend. It is funny stuff!!!
I disagree in that I think it's actually pretty fun 2nd time through with all levelled-up people, but hey, that's just me maybe. Either way, awesome game.
Also the Pixeljunk games, being "Eden" and "Shooter" are awesome. Both have demos, so you'll know fast if you'll like them or not, but I highly recommend them.
Fat Princess is also surprisingly fun. It can be frustrating if the teams are completely unbalanced with skill/initiative, but 90% of the time it's a blast.
Also my wife and a few of my friends are REALLY fond of "Mushroom Wars." It's an RTS-kind-of. Again, try the demo, see what you think. I couldn't get into it, but as I said, a lot of others I know REALLY like it.
My "rent it" comment was actually in response to Chibi's Brutal Legend suggestion, but there is a strange quoting display bug that prevents quotes from displaying properly at times.

Thanks for this thread. I was just going to ask the same thing. You can include old PS3 games for me, too. I just got it. I picked up Little Big Planet and Bioshock. Both are good. The only thing I don't like about Bioshock is that there seems to be absolutely no penalty to dying. The enemies even stay damaged when you come back to life. Good story though.
You can turn off the Resurrection Chambers in Bioshock. I never played using those.
