Nice list but 12 games in 1 day. I don't know about you guys but I have family to spend some of that quality time with on that day. That doesn't mean gaming is out but DAMN 12 games on 1 day, HELL NO.. maybe 2 out of the list I will play for sure.

TheLastGuardian4870d ago

Nice list. Those are my top 3 PS3 games.

Commander_TK4870d ago (Edited 4870d ago )

How about socializing with your family and friends? Get off your ass.

kramun4870d ago

I don't think it means play all of them in a day. In fact, I know it doesn't mean that.

HolyOrangeCows4870d ago

"Tony Hawk: Ride"

.....is this guy serious?

Cevapi884869d ago

genuine lol moment

thank you for that

Snatcher4870d ago

I have played one of those games today. Guess which one of them...TEAM FORTRESS 2!!!!

WiIIiam4870d ago

Ninja Gaiden II is not a classic. It's got one of the best combat engines wrapped up in some of the worst game design I've seen this gen. It broke my heart. The rest of the games on this list are great though!

Snatcher4870d ago

Ninja Gaiden on the original Xbox is really good though, hard, but good :D

WiIIiam4870d ago

Ninja Gaiden for Xbox and the Sigma remake for PS3 are my favorite hack and slash action games. Bayonetta is the only other one that comes close. I cannot wait to see what Bayonneta 2 holds in store for action gamers.

WeSeePC4870d ago (Edited 4870d ago )

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis11h ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

anast9h ago

It's worth a play through today.

64 bit support is not the same as a next gen upgrade. 64 bit has been used for like 12-15 years now?

You left out The Darkness games bring those back

fan_of_gaming13d ago

The head of Nightdive Studios has posted that The Darkness is on their list of games they want to do, so hopefully something comes from that

Yi-Long13d ago

Little Big Planet 1 and 2 deserve a mention, IMO.

Good call on Motorstorm, a game released 2 gens ago but still looks and feels so good. Motorstorm 2 and Motorstorm RC were gems as well. They followed up the Motorstorm games with the brilliant Driveclub, which still manages to put modern racing games to shame. Imagine closing down a studio as talented as that ... (!) Incredible.

A little 'arcade-gem' back then was The Last Guy, a top down 'follow the leader' snake-like game where you had to find and lead survivors to safety during an alien invasion, on terrible looking 'Google-earth' maps. Graphics were poor, even back then, but would love that same gameplay with modern maps and graphics.

Street Fighter 4, once it finally had a full roster, was quite good, but it was always an ugly game, sadly. Imagine bringing that back while using the current SF6 engine.

fan_of_gaming13d ago

Good suggestions, I'd be in for
LittleBigPlanet
LittleBigPlanet 2
Motorstorm: Pacific Rift
Motorstorm: RC

purple10113d ago

God damn I love motorstorm so much

At the time I had a low-mid range sony 40” tv, The latency to the controller was waaaay too high, would to play a modern version

In saying that later I got a 3d lg tv and playing the 3d motorstorm in my bedroom with the environment crumbling around the track, was something special, specially compared to what others were playing at the time, will always remember that

Skuletor13d ago

Some good choices here and Resistance: Fall of Man is my most wanted PS3 remaster/remake. Not sure about their claim it was Sony's answer to Gears of War though.

CrimsonWing6913d ago

I’d rather have sequels than remakes. Look at Dead Space 1 Remake. Would’ve been cooler if we got a new entry and it failed with sales sealing the fate of a sequel rather than just replay the same game and it fail in sales and we never get a new entry.

Remakes are great for things like PS2 and earlier games to really get a crazy new graphical coat, but I think we should ease up on all these remakes and actually do sequels.

fan_of_gaming13d ago

Yeah for sure, sequels would be ideal. But in the current market environment where many big publishers are risk-averse, I'd rather get a remaster or remake that a developer can do on a budget that will be approved, rather than nothing for an IP.

Inverno13d ago

I rather they remaster and port over to PC and current gen all the games permanently stuck on PS360. Those games don't need remakes, they need to be given a chance to live again outside of their confined consoles and then give a few proper sequels. Like Sleeping Dogs, Motor Storm, LA Noir, should get another entry.

fan_of_gaming13d ago

Yeah I'd be fine with remasters of PS3 games too, they don't have to be remakes.
