    The wife and I both play. More her than the bitter gamer that I am so go ahead. I'm more a collector than gamer anyway.

    Anything goes as long as you find the game good enough to recommend.

    Here's what I have. It's that time to pounce on the system and get pretty much every good game in the system.

    I'll bite on The Last of Us next.

    Vanquish - Platinum does for shooting what they usually do for slashing

    Metal Gear Rising - Metal Gear themed chop 'em up, also from Platinum

    Arkham Asylum - Batman sort of does 3D Metroidvania

    Deadly Premonition - What if Twin Peaks was a batshit low budget Japanese open world game?

    Shadow of the Colossus comes to mind, since they remastered it not too long ago for the PS3.

    I second Vanquish. I would also say Red Dead Redemption, but the PS3 one is inferior.

    Oh, and Fallout New Vegas, and the Killzone Trilogy.

    Thank you for the kind replies.

    How's TF Devastation?

    I also haven't found it at good price which is weird for a TF game.

    I think that is current gen only. As for price, it has been on sale for a while at Walmart for $20.

    EDIT: Shoot, it is last gen too.

    Saw Devastation for PS3 before at an insane price of 50$ cad. LOL saw it drop at 20$ but I (still) think I can do better.

    Just remembered before I go to bed -

    Dead Rising 2 - Bonkers zombie survival sandbox, before they ruined the series to cater for people that don't like challenge

    Tomb Raider Legend, Anniversary and Underworld - More like a modern (at the time) version of the old games rather then the AAA movie 'em ups of the reboot

    If you don't have them on PS2, then the God of War 1+2 collection - Greek Mythology beat 'em ups
    If your not planning to buy the PS4 remaster, God of War 3 - Greek Mythology beat 'em up with more graphics

    Totally not your thing, but Heavy Rain and Beyond - Two Souls if your wife might like modern Interactive Movies.

    Sleeping Dogs - GTA remade as a 80s/90s Hong Kong police movie

    Deus Ex : Human Revolution - First Person Cyberpunk Action RPG

    The Borderlands 1 and 2 , the pre sequel is lacklustre. Minecraft. The Elder Scrolls V : Skyrim is excellent.

    i agree on all of these. i played the non-exclusives on the xbox 360/one, but they should still be great
    this i do not agree. presequel is just as good as the others in my opinion.

    i don't have much else to recommend, judging from your existing collection though.....
