My parents just bought a PS3 for the blu-ray, and so now I have the option of blowing my money on PS3 games. I'm really not familiar with the games for it, however... Would anyone be willing to suggest things to me? I'm really not into the whole FPS genre much, but other than that?

For new releases, I think MGS4 is a good choice, if you're into that sort of thing.

For used games, go for Resistance.

But I don't have a PS3, so I wouldn't know...

I hear that Warhawk has some intense online, though I also do not own a PS3.

Metal Gear Solid 4 is essential, one of the best games ever. Uncharted: Drakes Fortune is great, Ninja Gaiden Sigma is good (but hard), Oblivion will last you for ages, Ratchet and Clank is great fun and Warhawk is good too. If you like racing games Burnout Paradise and Motorstorm are good. In the future you should get Soul Calibur 4, Killzone 2, Final Fantasy XIII, White Knight Chronichles, Mercenaries 2, Prince of Persia and LittleBigPlanet. The PS3 is amazing you will enjoy it.

I'm getting a PS3 this friday.
Games I know I'll get are:
MGS4
Motorstorm
Mercs2 when it's out.
Warhawk.

I've been told to rent Heavenly Sword, but it;s not really worth the buy.

Heavenly Sword is definitely worth a full purchase, fanboys made a "just rent it" bandwagon with it's one-hour-less-than-most-games malarkey, and most people jump onto it.

Well when I get my PS3 friday, I'll only have enough money left over for a rental, so that's what was suggested.

mgs4, no doubt..
also, some of the best games on ps3 are downloadable.. have you checked out Super Stardust HD? Pixel Junk Monsters? Everyday Shooter? Spectacular games...

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns Of The Patriots!! No Contest!!
