I recommend Boom Blox on the Wii. Surprisingly fun game that will throw your shoulder out in about 10 minutes...

I should also add that I was accepted into the PS3 Resistance 2 beta. I quickly learned that I am not an FPS player, after getting killed by zombies in about 15 seconds. All I could do was scan the sky trying to figure out how to target the moans surrounding me...

Any good flight combat games for the PS3 that any of y'all know about? I just picked up a PS3 a couple of weeks to use as a Blu-Ray player and have only played the NASCAR '09 game so I'm on the lookout for anything automotive or flight ... any suggestions?

However, I am still getting accustomed to the thumbsticks as they are much different than the ones on the 360

Have you tried the demos from the PS Store? I particularly liked Pure. Even though it's a Disney title, I liked the graphics and gameplay. Kinda like SSX Snowboarding but w/ ATVs. |

Rick, nothng really good as far as flight combat out for the PS3 yet, but the beginning of next year it looks like there may be some pretty good ones coming out. This one I really like. Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X.

However, I am still getting accustomed to the thumbsticks as they are much different than the ones on the 360 I haven't compared D-pads, but yeah, everyone complains about the 360's. Which controllers do you have for the PS3? SIXAXIS or DualShock 3? I only have the SIXAXIS controllers. I'll eventually get DualShock 3s, but it'll be a while. |
