    Need for Speed: Pro Street (Waits for lashback!) <----I think it's a brilliant game.
    Assassins Creed
    Heavenly Sword
    Haze is due out soon
    Call Of Duty 4

    Haze is due out soon
    apparently haze has been delayed till 2008 :(

    I'm sorry Pro Street is absolutely dire. The demo was pure muck.

    If you want rally game for PS3 get Dirt.

    Colin Mc Rae?

    Whats the Sega Rally game like??

    any another recommended games?
    Whats Assassins Creed like??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,859 ✭✭✭Julez


    Yeah, Colin McRae DiRT is your best bet, Sega Rally is very unrealistic, I've Colin McRae and its a solid game.

    DiRT is the Colin McRae one.
    Sega Rally isn't supposed to be great.
    Assassins Creed is a platformer which is savage.
    And Need for Speed: ProStreet varies from person to person, some saying it's crap, some saying it's great, but thats the one thats being advertised with the Twin Cams, etc...

    (DeJa Vu)

    agreed, its excellent imo

    i order of quality *(as per metacritic reviews):

    DiRT
    Motorstorm
    Ridge Racer 7
    Stuntman: Ignition (sort of racing)
    Sega Rally Revo
    Formula One Championship Edition
    Need for Speed ProStreet
    Need for Speed Carbon
    Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights

    if you're still looking for a racing game after that, you really are desperate.

    *I missed one or two out that I didn't consider 'proper' racing games.

    Just after seeing the Ad on TV and it was Need for Speed so thats sorted but i kinda wanna get DIRT too but the price of the PS3 games are unreal so will have to just stick to one!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,661 ✭✭✭✭Helix


    get dirt then instead of need for speed, its a better game

    in what way?

    Thanks


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,661 ✭✭✭✭Helix


    every way tbh

    nfs is a very good game, but dirt is a great game

    If I was going for a racing title on the PS3 I'd have to say Motorstorm, what it lacks in real cars it gains in sheer playability, it's a tremendous videogame.

    Dirt is ok, but I find the cars feel very very disconnected from the track, rather wait for a proper WRC licensed game to come out, I'm surprised it's taken this long.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,661 ✭✭✭✭Helix


    i thought motorstorm was absolute muck tbh


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,016 ✭✭✭✭vibe666


    motorstorm was fine for showing off the PS3 early on, but I never managed to get into it. I actually spent a lot longer playing full auto 2 than motorstorm. as a racing game it's very so so, but when you add lots of guns and missles to it you instantly get more fun.

    if only they'd release a PS3 version of carmageddon. now that was a fun racing game. :D

    Motorstorm is my only game for ps3 along eith fifa 08 and i find it enjoyable but i'm not as addicted to it as i have been to some other racing games.I think it was a bit of a showoff too but WHAT a showoff in fairness.It has better graphics than any other game i can think of

    It's a mixed bag. Starts out well, but becomes repetitive rather quickly.
