A first-person shooter about an alternative version of the 20th century where the United States and England unite in an almost predetermined war against four-eyed aliens. Insomniac Games, formerly of colorful platformers Spyro the Dragon and Ratchet & Clank, has successfully mastered the dark setting. The game clearly showed the graphical potential of the console. In addition, there was a full-fledged multiplayer - another next-gen feature of the console. Despite a rough start for the console itself, the game has sold 4.3 million copies and has grown into a full-fledged trilogy.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots

Once upon a time, Kojima promised to end the MGS storyline with this game. The graphics of the "four" at one time dropped the jaw, and the excellent volume of Blu-ray disc Hideo scored 9 hours of cinematic cutscenes: sometimes you could forget that you were playing and not watching a Hollywood movie. MGS 4 was critical to the still-looking PS3 - many finally bought the console precisely for the Genius's new masterpiece. In addition, the game included the multiplayer spy action Metal Gear Online, which was invaluable for the fans.

LittleBigPlanet

A unique cooperative platformer with a simple yet versatile level editor built into it. Although the British Media Molecule campaigned for the game, the focus was on user-generated content. Players have created tens of thousands of levels. They were used to build decent standalone games - and are available in the LBP for free.

For a long time, the series remained one of a kind - something remotely similar except that Nintendo did in Super Mario Maker, which came out as much as seven years later. LittleBigPlanet was a hit, selling over 5.8 million copies.

 

Demon's Souls

The hardcore Japanese action game didn't get too much attention at first. In fact, Demon's Souls is a more brutal version of Dark Souls, released several years earlier. Here the world changes depending on the number of deaths: for example, if you die too often, the red phantoms of other gamers will start attacking the player, or passages to secret locations where you can find new bosses may open.

The game has very dedicated fans. After the official end of support for its online features, gamers created their own emulator servers.

 

Killzone 2

Sci-fi first person shooter with a bad reputation. On the one hand, this is almost the most technically advanced game on PS3, including fluidity of animations and level of effects. On the other hand, the game was announced as a gameplay trailer with CGI-level graphics, which turned out to be completely fake. It is the most famous gamer cheat in PlayStation history.

 

Fans of complex first-person shooters and multiplayer shootouts still paid attention to the game - sales exceeded 3 million copies.

Heavy Rain

Probably the most famous game by David Cage, the game designer, and screenwriter who founded the niche of "interactive movies" in games. Heavy Rain is a detective story about a murderer who kidnaps children during the seasons of rain, while there are several main characters, each of whom can die in the story due to the player's decisions.

Some consider Heavy Rain to be the best game of Quantic Dream because of its novelty, others despise it for aggressive QTEs and a complete cliche script. The main thing is that a couple of years after the release the game was renowned.

The Last of Us

Triumph in the history of Naughty Dog is a game that has received more than a hundred awards and even the title of "Games of the Decade" from foreign publications. The post-apocalyptic story of the smuggler Joel and the girl Ellie is the studio's most serious game so far, turning Uncharted's entertaining formula into a drama about human nature and father-daughter relationships.

 

For PlayStation, TLOU was the definitive return to form as a primary platform holder. Sales of the game (excluding the re-release on PS4) are corresponding - 8.1 million copies.

The project takes place soon in Detroit, where androids like Kara can look, talk and move like real people. Kara, who has just rolled off the assembly line, is faced with a difficult task. She is struggling to find her place in a world where androids still do not have their consciousness and where people are considered solely as tools.
