Hello internet, the results are in for those of you that like to keep track of sales numbers for your favorite gaming console and Sony has finally managed to go “boom” for the sales numbers their struggling console. With the combination of a marketing campaign that seems to finally have gotten it right with commercials like this one.
Of course the biggest factor in the successful turn around for the PS3 is the price cut down to $299 which seems to be the sweet spot for consumers this year. So for all of you PS3 newbies that are just getting your hands on your first PS3 or for all those family members and friends who have a lucky new gamer to get a gaming gift for here is a quick list with some video clips of five games that you can’t go wrong with.
I’ll start this off with an easy one and probably the most family friendly game of this list. It’s the game that keeps on chugging and producing endless hours of new content all the time. Little Big Planet has become a must have game in most PS3 libraries so here’s a little clip in case you have been living in a shoe box over the last year
Game number two on the list is a very nice surprise this year in terms of how well it actually turned out. Finally gamers were given a video game based on the world of a comic book hero that was not a total waste of possibilities. I am referring to the very well reviewed and highly successful Batman Arkham Asylum which by the way is probably the best video game based on a comic book to be ever made, end of discussion!
Number three on my holiday gaming list of must have games for the PS3 is a bit of a blast from the past but thanks to the wonders of Blu-ray we now have a collection of games from the PS2 era. I am of course referring to the new God of War series which will be a good warm up for those of us that are patiently waiting for the third installment for GoW in the spring.
The last two games that I will put on this list are only available on the PS3 so I know some people may read this and wonder why some of the more popular muti platform games are not listed here instead, to you I say go make your own list So with out going into any details at all really here are the last two games on the list which have served as a couple of nice bookends for the 2009 year of games for the PS3 Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2 both of which set the gaming bar of quality really high for the year and both games could easily be considered games of the year for a lot of people.
Finally here is some awesome footage from the train sequence in the Uncharted 2 game, enjoy and happy holidays!
