PS3 games

[Duago]

"My favorite genres are action games with some RPG elements, I am not a big FPS fan and I suck at them really bad on consoles. I really should beat some more games before I buy more like the God of War HD collection. The only fighting game that I am looking forward to is the Playstation Battle Royal."

Alright well i suggest you shouldn't neglect the OTHER god of war collection on ps3 God of war: Origins collection. it has both of the psp games on it and they are actually quite good, especially Ghost of Sparta which has important kratos backstory. I suggest you grab Yakuza 3 and Yakuza 4. They are fairly cheap used, and it solves your number problem because Yakuza 3 has optional videos at the beginning explaining the story of the first two games. Subtitled though so watch that if you cant handle it.

Deus Ex:HR is kind of a sticking point because you say you like action and rpg elements which it has in spades but it also is usually from a first person perspective. This video is a breakdown of the differences between tackling the game like a shooter and tackling it like a stealth game.

I'll second (or third) ratchet. Crack in time is glorious. Some of the most inventive weapons ever.

I'll also throw down Enslaved, Action game loosely based on Journey to the west. Pretty solid.

Folklore, Arpg by Game Republic for Sony where you collect "folk" strange creatures to use as your attacks

Castlevania : Lords of Shadow, Atmosphere like no other. Lots of people complained that it isnt a metroidvania type game and that its combat is too much lke god of war but in my opinion it is just an actually true callback to the Castlevanias of old. Sequel and spinoff this fall so good timing.

Mirrors edge, First person platformer basically. You can avoid shooting entirely if you wish.

Darksiders, Again very God of War-like combat but layered over a very Zelda-like dungeon, exploration and equipment systems. Sequel is out soon also.

P.S. Most of these should be cheap because they are decently aged.
