Let me be as direct as a Dansko-clad kick to the keister: I’m not going to recommend the same four games here for PS3 that I did for the Xbox 360. That’d be boring and whichever platform you want to buy Dead Space, Fallout 3 or Rock Band 2 on is up to you. This’ll be more a more PS3-centric list, so deal with it.
BioShock
Sure, this was an Xbox 360 exclusive last fall, but who cares? There’s plenty of PS3-specific upgrades to be found here, and it’s still an awesome game. If you haven’t played the 360 version, get it this year on the PS3. Available October 21.
LittleBigPlanet
Supposedly launching at the same time as PS3’s new online community, Home, LittleBigPlanet is that unique kind of game that’s impossible to describe but highly addictive to play. Think along the lines of other fad games like Katamari Demacy and you’ll get an idea. Anyway, after about a year and a half of delays, it’s here on October 21.
Guitar Hero World Tour
Music game fans will be pleased with this upgrade that not only expands the game to catch up with Rock Band, but moves beyond it by adding in the ability to compose your own songs! Whether you prefer guitar, drums, or vocals, you’ll still want to be called a Guitar Hero! Available October 26.
Yes, we considered the NBA titles coming out this month, as well as the PS3 release of Eternal Sonata… but we’re out to help you spend wisely, not widely.
