Very late into the console cycle! What games to catch up on?

Hello all, 

first post here :smileyhappy:

 

I originally bought a 360 way back at launch, but after a year I wasnt interested in pretty much any games that were out or coming out so I sold it.  Fast forward quite a few years, I've bought a PS3 mainly for catch up tv and Netflix and as a blu-ray player, but I decided to trade in the free games the bundle came with and bought Ps Plus, and ive got the gaming itch!

 

So basically Im just after a list of games from good to the best through the playstation's life cycle (multiplatform is fine, seeing as I missed them all too) 

I have played Fallout 3, and mass effect 1 and 2 on PC oh and skyrim and oblivion.

 

Deffinately after the old ones because they'll be alot cheaper.  I've read alot of "top 10" lists, but the majority are modern games and I do fancy the forgotten ones I've missed out on.

 

In general I like games with a good story, I'll get bored and won't finish a game unless there's a good story - graphics are nice,I do love a pretty game, but story is what im after.

Walking dead  and counterstrike if you willing wait longer than every one else in the world.

 

That aside

 

Infamous 1&2

Heavy Rain

Uncharted 1 (others will say 2 and 3 but IMO it went down hill after 1)

DC Universe Fee download and to play but with optional sub option

Little Big Planet 1&2

Modnation racers

Everybodys golf

Resistence 1 again the better game IMO over 2 and 3

 

 

Most of the above you can get cheap

If you feel a bit old school & hardcore, try killzone2.

Re: Very late into the console cycle! What games to catch up on?

Well i would say:

Assassins Creed 2 (best out the 4, 1 being ok, Brotherhood and Revelations feel like an expansion pack on 2. If your interested in the story, read about 1 online, get 2, and possibly get Brotherhood and Revelations later)
Batman Arkham City (better than Asylum)
Heavenly Sword
inFamous 1 & 2 (2 is free on PS+ at the moment)
GTA IV & Episodes from Liberty City
Metal Gear Solid 4
The Orange Box (mainly for Portal!)
Uncharted series
Royston99
FirstPlay FIFA Goal (Episode 9) - 7th. "Name almost as wanderous as the camera work"

I prefer uncharted 2 personally but that may be because it was the first I got on a whim and it was a pleasant surprise (didn't know what to expect), they are all good though.

Deus Ex: Human revolution is good, Arkham city or Arkham Asylum (both are fantastic), Assassins creed 2, heavy rain, the orange box and portal 2.

Re: Very late into the console cycle! What games to catch up on?

For me it would have to be

- Uncharted 1,2 & 3
- Infamous 1 & 2
- Killzone 2 & 3
- MGS4
- Battlefield Bad Company 1 & 2
- Gran Turismo 5
- GTA IV
- Heavy Rain

There some of the older games i played that i really enjoyed, quite a few of them can be purchased at cheaper proces around £15 on shopto.net as the Platinum version of the game

Red Dead Redemption (if you are ps plus its free)

Heavy Rain

Saints Row the Third (it's not heavy on story well maybe OTT story but its top fun)

Genji: Days of the Blade looks gorgeous (it's quite old and as it lacks trophies and people have forgotten about it so you can get it quite cheaply
