Well, we gotta populate these google results with Lemmy as well, so which games do you recommend from PS3 era? Any hidden gems that we might have missed?

Just got an old PS3 ready to boot

I was gonna say Shadow of the Colossus but it’s actually a PS2 game. Whatever, play the PS3 remaster.

One racing game I think is overlooked is Split Second. I always describe it as, “What if Michael Bay created a television racing show”. It’s racing around different locations where the environment can be used to change the layout of the track or smash into your opponents.

For example, a crane could drag its tipper bucket across the track or at the other end of the scale, the air traffic control tower could collapse onto the airport track and create a completely new route.

It was developed by Black Rock Studios who also made another really good racing game called Pure which is all about quad bike racing. Unfortunately, Disney who owned the studio, shut them down after Split Second was released.

Most of the Ratchet and Clank games are great.
Given how Konami did such a poor job with the MGS Collection Vol 1, MGS 4 is probably still safe on PS3 (and the Legacy Collection is great if you’ve never played MGS games before, but it’s getting really pricey nowadays).
In terms of “hidden” gems, Puppeteer and 3D Dot Game Heroes are at the top of my list, but those can be pricey as well.

Resistance! Also Infamous 1 and 2 were so good. Everything else has a decent remaster I think
