Came with Uncharted 4, MGS4, GTAV, and a bunch more so I'm all over those.

Red Dead Redemption looks like it should be fun too. The Last of Us is already on my shopping list, as is Jak and Daxter now.

Also going to pick up Little Big Planet next time I'm in CEX.

The FIFA games that came with it are likely to be traded in, unless my brother wants to keep them. Not my usual cup of tea. No soccer game has since matched the perfection that was Nintendo World Cup.

I was. Especially about Nintendo World Cup. I must have rented that game from the Computer Game shop in Blackrock Main St about 7 times.

Portal 2 was a fun game if you haven't already played it. As for the Uncharted series, I don't think they've put out a bad game yet. The soundtrack in Uncharted 2 was brilliant.

I played through most of Infamous when it was free after the PSN was hacked and remember it being pretty good. Certainly worth picking up if you find it cheap.

Keep an eye out for Time Crisis 4 too if you like the series.

I spent a lot of time playing MAG. It was a shame it was online multiplayer only and the servers were only up for around 2 years. The largest game mode had somewhere near 256 players per match.

Get Uncharted 2 before you play 3.
Journey is a masterpiece.
Disgaea 4.
Demons' Souls and Dark Souls.
Hohokum.
Catherine.
Yakuza 3/4
Critter Crunch
Flower
Pixeljunk Shooter
Velocity

Motorstorm Pacific Rim is cheap and fun.
Puppeteer is an OK game but looks amazing, also cheap.
And, unless you have owned them elsewhere, you simply have to buy the essential Orange Box from Valve, simply the most amazing collection of games on one disc, and get Portal 2 while you're at it

The Orange Box on PS3 is, if I recall, a crappy port. Play it on PC or 360 if by chance you haven't gotten around to it in the last six or seven years!

I was never into PC gaming and my first experience with Half Life was on the 360. The Orange Box on the 360 is a must have, it can be picked up for small money now. If anybody doesn't have it, get it now. I would have to rank it in my top ten favourite games of all time.

The fact that the game was so bad saddened me.

But don't let that stop you from buying it!

In fact buy it exclusively for streets of rage and don't bother with anything else on the disc.

Pick up Gran Turismo 6 for the PS3 if you're into racing sims.

Danonino.

Hotline Miami

Of the top of my head I'd consider these must haves Hotline Miami is on PC too I guess bit has to be played. Uncharted 2 was a masterpiece up there witg dark souls and the last of us imo

Still to come hopefully tomorrow.

• Street Fighter Anniversary Collection

And last but not least is .....

• Gradius 5 (oh hells yeah!!!, been looking for this for a while now. Paid €12 for it which is a great price compared to everywhere else online)

I love Gradius V but feck do I hate the first boss! He always gets me with a bullet as soon as he starts to rotate.

Ah dont tell me that! I'm no good as it is without really tough first boss fights!

Seriously looking forward to it though. Its a game I've had on my radar for quite some time.

Also really looking forward to revisiting Half Life as its been well waaaay too long shall we say since I last played it. I have the orange box unopened too as I was kinda waiting to see could I pick up the first one first.

Gradius Gaiden is worth buying, it's Japan only and for the PS1 but it's a cracking game.
Other must haves, in my humble opinion at least, are Raiden Project, Raiden DX and G Darius, although that last one can also be found on the excellent Taito Collection on the PS2, on the first volume I think.

Raiden games are super expensive if I recall correctly.. Dont get me wrong I'm building a nice little PS2 Shmup collection weirdly ( I wasnt planning on buying so many) but its rare that I can justify €40 - €60 on any PS2 game.

Gradius V is generally €40+ online when I've looked for it hence being delighted at €12 from CEX.

G Darius I have on the Taito Collection alright. Class. Love the bosses. Mental looking. On a similar level of crazy as the imo wonderful deathsmiles on 360. Normally I dont particularly like the bullet hell games but deathsmiles is great craic. Gets impossible as you progress to the end though.
