Top 5 PS3 games for Christmas 2010

After nearly four years in the wilderness the PlayStation 3 has finally become a serious contender in the gaming realm. A disastrous start saw the PS3 fall way behind the Wii and Xbox 360 and for the most part can be blamed on its initial $700 price point. Now with a redesign that focused on cost saving and reliability, sales have sky rocketed and now reaffirms the place of Sony’s console in living rooms around the world. Finally the Sony PlayStation 3 is an affordable device that is not only a top gaming system but a highly competent BluRay and network media extender.

DJ Hero 2

DJ Hero was one of last year’s most surprising hits. Gamers were originally not convinced that a virtual DJ game with its own controller was ever going to be a success. To everyone’s amazement Activision pulled it off and delivered a package with just under 100 original remixes of classic tracks. The Rhythm Deck controller itself was also rather well made and gave gamers a genuine feel of mixing at the deck. Now the sequel is arriving just in time for Christmas and the special DJ Hero 2 Party Bundle for PS3 comes bundled with 2 Deck controllers and a Microphone. Perfect for the brand new and very cool multiplayer modes, DJ Hero 2 for PS3 Features well known remixes from Lady Gaga, Deadmau5, Kanye West, Chemical Brothers, Dr Dre, Rihanna and others.

Gran Turismo 5

Finally PlayStation 3 owners are within reach of the elusive Gran Turismo 5 for PS3. The ultimate racing simulator returns with life like graphics and an entire game engine built from the ground up to support the PS3’s unique Cell processor. The game is so big that it maxes out the Blu-ray disc with over 1000 real life cars, 70 different tracks and can even be played in real 3D if you have a compatible television and 3D glasses along with Playstation Move support.

Playstation Move

Motion control fans can finally put their WiiRemotes down and swap them for the more powerful PlayStation Move controllers. The High Definition console now has its very own competitive motion controller called the PS3 Move and the discounted starter pack comes bundled with the controller, USB Camera and Sports Champions game disc. We think it’ll be a hit for families in the same way that Wii Sports was four years ago.

    I dont like the idea of AC Brotherhood continuing with Ezio. I’d rather a new era. Oh well.
