i have £110 pounds, and i want to pre-order about 3 games that are coming out within the next few months, i have already decided on FFXIII , Modnation Racers and i have already pre-ordered BFBC2 and MAG, any opinions on what i should go for? oh and just to be clear i want it to be released in march or beforehand, not something stupid like july :L
my thoughts so far:
Heavy rain, possibility, read OPSM review, and im not too sure, may just wait for this one to play itself out
White night chronicles, looks good, all the trailers are taking my fancy, but im not always a fan of RPG's
Bioshock 2, at first i really, really wanted this, but everytime i see a new trailer, or playthrough, i want it less, not that i wont like it, but i cant see anything new coming from it if you know what i mean, it looks quite samey, with a couple of features added in, but not enough to make me buy.
God of war 3, at first looked good, E3 made it look quite bad, me playing E3 demo made me not want it much atall, simply because it doesnt feel very much like a ps3 game, i have heard that they have sorted this, but atm i will just wait and see
Agent, looks good, but no idea of release, or much information so i shall leave that one
Dantes inferno, now this looks amazing, but it seems a bit too overcomplicated battle system (like GOW, im sorry im just not a huge fan) but after the demo i did like, but im not too sure still
Alien Vs. Predator, looks good, but so did dark void, i think i will let this one play out
Split second, looks like a burnout style racer with huge triggered explosions and stuff, coukld be amazing, could not be, again ishall defo wait
Skate 3, now i kind of like skate 2, preffered skate one to it though, but i still will always prefer tony hawks games, even after the dreadful ride, what ever happened to the amazing american wasteland?? :'( . so yeah i want this, but possibly not the top of my priority
i think that is the end of my very long essay, now why cant i do this much writing in homework???
thanks and please leave any more suggestions and comments on the game

This is easy. GOD OF WAR 3. If you don't buy it/play it, then you are really going to be missing out on what is going to be one of the greatest games EVER. Buy it. No questions asked. You shouldnt even be considering getting Dante's Inferno over GOW3. Dante's Inferno is a weak, bland, and more boring version of GOW.
Also get Heavy Rain, looks brilliant, and very refreshing!

unless you have all of the good games from last year, you might want to get one of them such as ACII

How does God of War 3 have bad graphics. Please explain to me. And of course it has invisible barriers, a lot of games do. This is an action game, not a platformer.

Im just saying from the looks of it so far, God of War 3 does look better than Dante's Inferno. And im 100% sure it will be..

hmm… I'm really not sure where you come off with Dante's Inferno demo being better? First off, GOW3 graphics look as good, if not better, than Dante's. Plus, the GOW3 demo isn't actually a section of the game, it was just slapped together to show some new enemies and features, for the record. Many of Dante's moves are very similar to Krato's, with the one real difference being his magic, and the holy cross move. Frankly, the both look great, and I don't think you can go wrong with either, but as someone who play the first two GOW, I need the third to get a fricking ending to this story line, and therefore I automatically go for that.
As for the rest: The only other games I'm going to get this year are Bioshock 2, because hell, if you played the first and don't expect the same company to bring more innovation to the table, you are seriously underestimating 2k games. Bio 1 was full of it, so is borderlands, I expect more new fresh ideas. Besides this, ALL OTHER GAMES I BUY will be PS3 exclusives. I find that the ones I get which seem lack luster in certain areas, short of graphics or gameplay or levels or just short in general, are multiplatform. Therefore, Heavy Rain is my next in line. Also, it just looks awesome.

personally, at the start of the year at least, ima get Dante's Inferno, Heavy Rain and see how good Lego Harry Potter is before i buy that.
the reason im getting DI over GoWIII is because ive never owned another GoW game and dont wanna come into it at the end of the story. im almost possitive it will be better that DI, but Dante's Inferno is the only game in its series (at least so far).Heavy Rain just looks the shit, and Harry Potter and Star Wars were the only Lego i ever bought, so i wanna look into LHP.
Also, im torn wheather to get MAG, someone pursuade/disuade me

r23drummer, why not buy the GOW Collection, then you will be caught up with the story, that's what I am going to do.

Time to throw my opinion into the mixer! Good is subjective so one man's heaven is another's hell!
Baring this in mind my friends we need to look at this all Objectively. So comparing the graphics between Dante's Inferno and GOW3 is down to the well established conventions of what “looks good”. Some prefer cel-shaded to ultra realistic graphics. I haven't seen any screens for DI so I can't exactly comment. What I can say about GOW3 is that it has the expectation of being very good because more people liked the two prequels than didn't like them. DI has the disadvantage of being a new IP and so has yet to establish itself. But if as you say you prefer the demo of DI to the demo of GOW3, then by all means indulge yourself in that. But I suggest that you wait and see if the game will give you any depth because we can safely assume that being the end of a trilogy, GOW3 is going to give us a roller-coaster of set pieces!
As for Bioshock 2 (which in my opinion is looking set to become another GOTY nominee), I would think it a tad short sighted of you to write it off completely. Bear in mind that one of the many things that made the first game exceptional in the eyes of so many is its' incredible story line! And it looks set to out-do itself, as the developers are commenting that there are more twists than the first, so keep this one in mind!
My third choice for you would be AVP. Putting my trust in reliable internet sites and magazine previews I can again safely assume that this will be another epic show-piece of originality for games. Its' originality coming from the predator and alien story lines. I personally can't wait for the online aspect of this game (and normally I never play online games!!!). So AVP gets my recommendation as your third choice. But again, wait and see reactions from other sources before you purchase unless you are dead certain you want it!

I really can't understand how people say that Dante's Inferno is better than GoW.
Oh and sorry to everyone that GoW3 does not have top-notch graphics. But remember one thing. The animations. THey are absolutely flawless, smooth, and beautiful. Every character moves so smoothly, and the moves are executed so nicely.
from the demo of Dante's Inferno demo, i thought it looked ugly.. terrible textures imo.

you guys should just compare what you feel has better gameplay as long as the graphics are good who cares if there not the best on ps3 gameplay is the most important think. theres only 1 game that i stopped playing because of shitty graphics and that was prototype but i mean come on they were terrible they looked like ps2 graphics at best

Can we rename this topic Dante's inferno vs Gow 3? lol
Both games looked great in the demo imo , but this should be a discussion for after the games come out . We had the same thing happen with Prototype vs Infamous before the games came out and well Infamous was the clear winner in that one .
I dont give a $#!* which game is better i'll probably get both ,unless im sick of the genre after DI because these 2 are goin to be pretty similar in gameplay
Im also someone who didnt play Gow 1 or 2 and im not that keen to go back to ps2 games ,so just for argument's sake im goin with Dante's inferno
