Take a look at some of the best games on PS3 in 2008
Grand Theft Auto IVReleased: April 2008
The first blockbuster of 2008 exceeded all expectations going on to become the biggest selling videogame of all time. The gritty, crime opus that starred Niko Bellic, Rockstar’s Eastern European hero who came to Liberty City to escape his past and instead found both himself and his cousin Roman embroiled in a world of corrupt cops and unhinged gangsters; an instant classic.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns Of The Patriots

Summer saw the arrival of Solid Snake in his final farewell with Guns Of The Patriots, a gripping, futuristic tale of mercenaries, war machines and politics all seen through the eyes of PlayStation’s best-loved hero. The game packed in breathtaking boss battles, a fist-fight in Metal Gear Rex, and a story that grabbed you by the throat right from the outset and didn’t let go until the credits roll by.
LittleBigPlanet
Released: November 2008
The cuddliest PlayStation character ever arrived on consoles towards the end of the year and already Sackboy and his army of Sack people have turned the world of PlayStation on its head with a huge array of spectacular levels created by you. Fun on your own, with a friend or across PlayStation Network with up to other players, LittleBigPlanet is the most addictive platformer you’ll play in years.
Call Of Duty: World At War
Released: November 2008
Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare blew PLAYSTATION®3 owners away back in 2007. With this latest entry in the series the action in Call Of Duty returned to World War II, delivering a stunning, pulse pounding shooter packed with a year’s worth of action and then some. The game features a spectacular single player mode, on and offline co-op as well as the epic brand of multiplayer that made Modern Warfare such fun to play.
Resistance 2
Released: November 2008
The Chimera weren’t giving up after their defeat in London at the hands of Nathan Hale and his men at the finale of Insomniac’s Resistance and in November they returned with a bang in the hugely anticipated sequel. Bigger, louder and even more rammed full of stunning sci-fi set pieces than ever before, Resistance 2 sets a new benchmark in the world of first person shooters thanks to an epic single player campaign, online co-op and 60 player online skirmishes. Never has a war been waged so hugely on PLAYSTATION 3!
