Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (The W at Amazon) (gs, avg 9.5) “Fantastic mutliplayer game” seems to be consensus. If you want a FPS for the PS3, you can’t do better than this.

Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga (gs, 7.8 but lightly reviewed) – not much new to offer those who’ve played the previous game, but it’s still solid.

Bladestorm: The Hundred Years War (gs, 5.6) Real Time Strategy game that doesn’t really take advantage of being on a PS3. Not deep enough to make up for it.

Blazing Angels 2: Secret Missions of WWII (gs, 6.0 based on one review) – a flying game that came out weeks ago on the other next gen systems. Much the same as the original.
