The Evergreen PS3 Games

Some things never get old, PS3 games too. Here are some examples that have remained with us over the years, curated by real money casinos Australia.

Killzone 2

Leading up to its launch, Killzone 2 was embroiled in controversy over its graphics (which wasn’t helped by Sony’s “demo” at E3 2005). Not only was it an utterly gorgeous title on release but also incredibly fun, packed with well-designed missions, challenging enemy AI and compelling combat. The characters and story were mostly serviceable, but all in all, Killzone 2 put Guerrilla Games on the map as a developer to reckon with.

Borderlands 2

Looter shooters have undergone numerous changes over the years, especially as live service models have taken over. But Borderlands 2 is still a fun time, whether solo or in co-op. The story of the Vault Hunters versus Handsome Jack, and their adventures on Pandora, are filled with great humor, emotional moments and most importantly, tons of loot. The sheer number of build options, combined with fun bosses and an immense amount of content, make this a timeless classic even if the end-game is limited by today’s standards.

Batman: Arkham City

Batman: Arkham Asylum was a watershed moment for superhero games, and Arkham City went even further beyond. While it expanded past the gameplay of its predecessor, the environmental design, the sheer amount of classic villains, Riddler Trophy puzzles, and incredible details still make it an open-world gem. This isn’t even taking the Free Flow Combat, which is still stellar, into account. Origins and Arkham Knight were pretty good but the series pretty much peaked with Arkham City.

The Last of Us

From the opening moments to the game’s unexpected conclusion, The Last of Us is Neil Druckmann at his absolute best. There are admittedly some viable critiques about the gameplay, but The Last of Us is narrative perfection, headlined by two very different characters voiced by two very talented artists. When Joel begrudgingly takes on the task of ferrying Ellie, a young girl found to be immune to the mutated Cordyceps strain, to a rebel militia in search of a cure, it opens the door for a survival horror game that’s driven by drama and not scares. Their path blocked by a horde of infected and merciless bandits, the duo faces impossible odds that help bring them closer together including users of high roller online casino.

BioShock

In the depths of the ocean sits a city intended to break free from the chains of the surface world. First constructed in the 1940s, the underwater city of Rapture was to be a utopia where people could live without the lingering oppressive rule of government. By the time the protagonist of BioShock finds his way down to the since-decimated city, the vision of creator Andrew Ryan has deteriorated into a horrifying version of itself. When scientists came across ADAM, a DNA-altering genetic material produced by sea slugs, it doomed Rapture and Ryan’s utopia was lost.
