Title: Need some help in choosing PS3 video games for my nephew.
Post by: OneMoreRep on April 26, 2011, 03:27:08 PM
Gamers,

I just bought my nephew (14 yr. old) a PS3 for his birthday.  I promised him that I would buy him at least 3-4 games to get him going for the next few months before he starts to bother my brother for more games.

Which are the most popular games in the market for this console?

Epic timing, you just bought him a device that is supposedly under attack from hackers, the Playstation network is currently labeled as Playstation notwork.

That's what he wanted for his birthday. I don't know anything about those consoles or their networks, I only play online poker and that's as high tech as I like to go.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Need for speed hot pursuit is an excellent game, suitable for ages. My other suggestion is Just cause 2, it's an open world action game, you can practically do anything and it's really hard to get bored with it.

Those two games are definitely recommended and I don't see how they won't suit anyone. Check em out on youtube.

He told me about Madden and that he likes those games.  Any of those similar to Madden?

No, you should reserve NCAA 12' for him though

Do I have to go back to the store to reserve this game or can I just do it online?

Also, back when I was a teenager, there was a cool shooter game called DuckHunt.  Any of you guys ever play that?

Does the playstation sell the gun like the one Nintendo had?

He is not GAY.  He is a straight teenager who has a girlfriend.  He is a good kid.  I'm not trying to sway his preference.

I just want to be a good uncle and buy him some cool games for the PS3.

Yes! Madden is a must also.

I like going into the store and getting a reciept.  ;) If you do it on-line....well, i guess i am old and just like to have that receipt in my hands, ya know. You just show them the receipt and he picks up the game.

That's where I purchased the PS3 for him.  

I swear you must be a certified game geek to work in those stores.  The young man that assisted me knew everything about the PS3 and the many games on display.  He told me that he has personally played all of the games himself.  I asked him if he owned the games and he just winked.

I don't get it..

This looks pretty entertaining.  I was very taken by the many game covers.  I hope the display up front is as good or better than what is seen in the game.

I agree. I would suggest just buying the kid some books. I regret all the time I've wasted playing video games.

One of the street fighter games


Batman Arkham Asylum

Spiderman Shattered Dimensions

One of the Midnight Club racing games

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 (Maybe a bit too adult for him, since he's only 14 - a lot more games I could recommend if he was older really)
