Title: I need quick advice on a PS3 FPS game Post by: El Gallo on August 15, 2007, 11:59:21 AM La Gallina wants Blu-ray, and an old college roomate I used to play hours of NHL'93 with on the Genesis is coming over this weekend, so I am picking up a PS3 today (that part isn't up for debate, but feel free to mock me).
She likes shooters but doesn't know what's good. I don't like shooters and never knew what's good. Suggest a decent shooter that looks good on PS3. Something that involves blowing the hell out of monsters is better than blowing the hell out of people, and blowing the hell out of undead is best of all (she was a big fan of House of the Dead). Gameplay is king of course. She's not a hardcore console gamer, so it doesn't need to be super hard (and doesn't like frustrating shit like games without lots of save points anyway). She's also not going to want to play online. Just looking for some cathartic zombie/monster/whatever explosions after a long day at the office.

Resistance is easier and has more guns. Once you beat it once, you can play through again with a completely different 8 guns and some of them (like the twin equilibrium style aiming pistols) are just fun as hell.

On the plus side, it has monsters for enemies.
Welcome to the club. Title: Re: I need quick advice on a PS3 FPS game Post by: Ragnoros on August 15, 2007, 12:18:16 PM Yeah listen to schild. Resistance is where it's at.

Heh, the 360 is only console that's strong with the shooters. Stranglehold is cross platform though, so there's that to look forward to. Title: Re: I need quick advice on a PS3 FPS game Post by: schild on August 15, 2007, 04:54:59 PM Rasix:
Killzone 2 and Uncharted. I rest my case. Title: Re: I need quick advice on a PS3 FPS game Post by: Rasix on August 15, 2007, 06:03:56 PM True. But he's hardly got a time machine, does he?
Random aside: cool art book with Persona 3. Not sure it's worth the fucking delay though. Title: Re: I need quick advice on a PS3 FPS game Post by: El Gallo on August 16, 2007, 06:08:22 AM Thanks for the help, mes amis. The pickup got pushed back to today. One other question. My TV only has one HDMI connection, I presume it's OK to just get a cheap HDMI switch like these http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=101&cp_id=10110&style= so I don't need to swap cables between cable TV/DRV and the PS3?
Title: Re: I need quick advice on a PS3 FPS game Post by: bhodi on August 16, 2007, 07:00:49 AM Hook your DVR up with component instead! The only thing that hdmi gets you is less cables and lag (sync) time changing channels and turning on.
