What games for Christmas?

Paulw

My brother has a new PS3 and I was wondering what games to get him for Christmas??

He's not really in to FPS or shooters, but more in to flight sims, driving and sport games.

Any advice/recommendations would be welcome.

Thanks.

FIFA 08 or PES 2008

If his tastes are a little wider, you could try Uncharted.

has anyone noticed that there is a general lack of racing/driving games for the ps3 this christmas???On the subject of nfs prostreet it seems to vary from person to person

superweld

there's a lack of fighting games also, though tekken and soul calibur are out next year.

is need for speed a total carhead game or can anyone enjoy it?

Lord Deco

Virtua Fighter 5 is very good,although quite easy

Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection is ok,not the best Tekken

Ninja Gaiden is the best fighter on the ps3 imo,brillant game

Motorstorm and Dirt are the best racers on the ps3,cant go wrong with one of them imo...

Pro Evo 08 is brill on the ps3,online is great fun...

You can get it for €30 below...

Yes. Play.com do not charge for any delivery as far as I know.

Thats the job some games are fierce cheap(e.g star trek legacy on 360 is just 15 euro) and thats only out a few monthsSome great deals on ps3 games as well. The exchange rate is excellent at the moment as well

Helix

theres no exchange rate required, they have euro pricing

I'm just after noticing.Another thing i've just noticed is that gran turismo 5 is due for release on the 28 march according to PLAY,com.That seems a bit soon is'nt it.Stilll it will make up for the lack of driving games this year:D

It's a one player game but a bloody fantastic one. On the PS3 if you are looking for a decent 2 player fighter you can't do better than Virtua Fighter 5. It's leagues ahead of Tekken and arguably better than the soul calibur series.
