I don't know if Little Big Planet is worth buying right now. 2 is coming out in 2 months and you will be able to play all the user made levels from 1 plus a lot more.

But it will be a while until LBP 2 drops in price.

Someone asks about what to buy and everyone states their favorite. With so many knowledgeable members here, Racketboy has a lot more to offer then just the latest top five favorites. Waste of some real meat and potatoes, discussion. Maybe might get some decent banter outta this comment.
I totally understand your annoyance at how many threads can be. I don't mean contribute to that, what I'd really like is to get suggestions beyond what I can find by typing "best ps3 games" into google. I mean that works, but it gives you the exact same 20 games over and over and over again.
With all the knowledge (and ps3 owners) that I know are around here I'd love to find out about some games that I've probably never heard of. Be that imports, budget titles, hidden gems, or anything else.
Okay that's cool. Problem is most your return hits will also be the same stuff. There was a recent post asking about unusual games.

Maybe some ideas there?

No votes for Uncharted or Uncharted 2 yet? Amazing games.

Also, God of War III obviously.

Valkyria Chronicles, PixelJunk Monsters and Metal Gear Solid 4. All of them are cheap too.

Metal Gear Solid 4 is the easy pick if you have played MGS 1-3 already... also is cheap

I think Uncharted 2 is probably the best game on the PS3, and I believe the critics concur. You can't go wrong with it. No need to play Uncharted 1 first, either.

And all those GTA4 scores are such bullshit.

Demon's Souls would be my first choice if I were just now picking up a PS3. When I originally picked up a PS3, it was for Metal Gear Solid 4 and Valkyria Chronicles.

I'd also recommend ModNation Racers if you are looking for something that'll keep you entertained for a long time. Kept me entertained for about 2 months straight, and it's a lot easier to make stuff with it than LBP.

Another post suggesting Ratchet and Clank. I could spend all day talking about how much I love that series.
