Okay, so I've seen <a href='http://tinyurl.com/y42zurt'>alot</a> of awesome-looking games coming out lately, and I'm wondering which one to get. I'm going to try and get it for Manly Santa Day, and I don't want get just games. I'd like to get some new clothes and (obviously) some Lego.

Options are in the poll. I play on a PS3, so if any of them turn out to not be available for said console, let me know so I can rule it out. Also, if you've played any of the games that are out, post a review of how the game went.

I currently don't have a job, but I've applied to a couple of places. When I do get a job, I'll be able to get some, if not all of them. But for now, I'm aiming for Manly Santa Day, since I have no idea of when I'll actually get a job.

EDIT: I'm not getting Lego Universe, it just doesn't appeal to me anymore. That's some sneaky editing sutbby.

New Vegas is probably your best bet for your money. The game has 3 storylines, you can do whatever you want to, and there's a ton of funny shit if you take the Wild Wasteland trait.

God, I love wild wasteland, I found a fridge with a dead body wearing an Indiana Jones hat.

Like Greenkey said, Fallout New Vegas is your best bet. I just can't wait for Valve's new titles, Portal 2 and Half-Life 2: Episode 3.

Whatabout CoD 7? Although I understand why it might not be on your 'good' games to get list.

Call of Duty =/= PS3 is probably why.

Okay, well I played Dead Rising 2 at a friend's house, and it's terrible. Corssing off list.

Not a big fan of COD anyway.

Alright well I've decided that I'm going to try to get LBP2 and another game, since I've been eagerly awaiting LBP2 for a while now. So that's no longer in the poll either.

Really? Why?

It was just really crappy. Every time you attack you stop for a second, the zombies are constantly grappling you making it nearly inpossible to move effectively, there's barely any possibility for combining weapons, and you have to go back to the safe house every 24 hours to give your daughter some anti-zombie medication. The gameplay just isn't fluid enough.

But that's my opinion, so you might like it. I'm just not recomending it.

The zombies aren't dangerous, it's not one bite and you are done for.
That kind of takes the fear for zombies away, in DR2 they are just mindless meat that you can kill, again.

Well, that's nothing bad. I mean, I only wanted the game because its a great WTF/Free Roam game. With zombies.

Unfortunaltey, zombies don't make everything better.

Well, really, I've seen footage of it as well as case zero. The zombies don't need to be scary, to me, in dead rising, they are just an excuse to my mum. She wouldn't let me place drill buckets on normal peoples heads.

Assassins creed: brotherhood, for one reason.

You left out FarmVille from your list.

Farmville, no self respecting matrerial object (not even oranges) would pay for that.
