Playstation 3 Legends
Since the release of the Playstation 3, many have claimed that the console has not produced games equal to the calibre of other systems, and that players have been found wanting. However, that can not be said of the following titles, two of which are Playstation 3 exclusives. Lets take a look at the three most popular games produced for the Playstation 3.
To begin, There is LittleBigPlanet. This title took the gaming world by storm upon its release, and the anticipation was definately well placed. LittleBigPlanet is a huighly innovative game that can be used in either single player or multiplayer modes. The story mode may seem short for a platformer, but it's purpose is merely to introduce you to LittleBigPlanet, a place constructed completely from our imagination. Each piece and part is like a section of a patchwork quilt, and can be modified in any way you please as you customize your own levels; creating your very own weapons, enemies, items and gameplay mechanics. Whatever you want to do, it's up to you.
LittleBigPlanet is a game wherein it could be truthfully said there are no boundaries- the player is free to create a world as they see fit, limited only by their imagination!
Next we have Fallout 3, which wasted no time in becoming the most popular first person shooter of the moment. The wide acclaim surrounding this title is down to the unbound freedom of the gameplay and the decisions you make therein. The story takes place after a nuclear disaster as you find yourself to be one of the few survivors. When your father disappears you set off after him, becoming trapped in a series of events and dilemmas, political intrigue and merciless violence.
Fallout 3 achieves no mean feat in combining two massively popular genres; FPS and RPG, and creating a successful hybrid in which every decision you make will affect the outcome in some way.
Where you may have done something decidedly bad in the past, certain
people will be impressed by the reputation this brings, while others
are not. Your decisions greatly affect the flow of the story, right up
to the end of the game, where the ending itself is decided by your
actions. For all these reasons and more, Fallout 3 is a game that merits much replay in order to get the fukll package.
Then, finally, there is Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns
of the Patriots. Without a doubt this title was THE anticipated game for the system, and the long, torturous wait was well worth it. Truly a game against which most others are judged, This conclusion to the long running franchise is an explosive treat.
MGS4 is the fourth and last installment in the
Solid series. While MGS2 introduced first-person shooting options to
the stealth-action gameplay, and MGS3 third-person gameplay, 4 combines
both. Over the course of the game, weapons and items can be obtained
and customized according to your tactics. MGS4 opens up new
possibilities; your weapons and equipment can be either
stealth-oriented, combat oriented, or both. But it's the gorgeously
told story here that seals the deal. The MGS series has always been
known for its cinematic presentation, but Guns of the Patriots takes
the cake. Like adding the final brush strokes to an elegant tapestry, Konami have rounded up their franchise in style, culminating in a story of love, heartache, betrayal and heroism.
