Getting a PS3 finally, what games do you guys suggest?

Catherine is an awesome game that I forgot to mention. Like QBert with angst. Even if you don't think it's up your alley, it's more than worth at least trying.

lol, I like that description of Catherine, though the puzzles aren't that similar to Q*Bert aside from the usable of blocks.

Yeah, they actually play quite differently, but that doesn't stop QBert from being the closest analogue I know. Maybe Intelligent Qube, but I've never played that.

Catherine is Sokoban.

...a really amazing Sokoban game.

...I'd never heard of those before, but you're wrong!

Only one box can be pushed at a time.
A box cannot be pulled.
The player cannot walk through boxes or walls.

yeah it's a lot closer than Q*Bert though!

You guys are both wrong.

Catherine plays just like Rapunzel, this arcade game they have at my local bar

I usually don't play puzzle games (save for tetris) but I thought Catherine looked interesting.

I remember renting Intelligent Cube from Blockbuster back in the day and thinking it was really hard - but I was probably still only in middle school so...xD The blocks would make me think of Catherine.

And I'll probably get a lot of flack for this, but I'm not a big Street Fighter fan. I've tried playing it multiple times and I can never get the hang of it like I can with Tekken. I think it's the button combo's, they just don't feel very intuitive to me. I've never owned a game in the series though, only played with friends, so I never really put the time in to learn it well I suppose.

Okay, so I started looking around on Amazon for PS3's but the lowest prices I'm seeing for them is like $298. I wanted buy one off Amazon because I got this $50 gift code for it and I figured I could use to save some money on one and buy it cheap (and then sell off my old PS2 to my friend who's looking for one).

But does $298 seem sort of high for a 60gig PS3? Should I hold out and see if something lower comes along or look elsewhere for cheaper ones? If nothing comes along on Amazon by the end of this week I may make WTB thread here perhaps.
