If you are looking for Something like Uncharted, then Batman is probably closest in terms of perspective and play style.
How do you like Borderlands man?

I love it.
It's brainless, but so much fun.

Think a FPS meets Diablo loot grab.

Possibly the best $20 you can spend on a game right now!!! Definitely one of my favorites for sure.

It is, but, damn if that narrative has gone off the rails.
Kojima is great at gameplay though.

I loved everything about MGS4, Kojima knows how to write a good story. I actually cared about or liked just about every single character in that game. You can say whatever you want about the cutscenes, but I really liked the very cenematic feel it gave the game. (How long is that last one, anyways, 2 hours or so?) Not to mention when you actually get to play the game it's incredible.

Oh, and even though a few people have recommended it I'd stay away from Dragon Age on a console. It's very difficult to play party-based, strategic RPGs on a console espeically since Bethesda dumbed down the control scheme.

Agreed 100%!

I am thinking about buying MGS1 on the Playstation store. What a DAMN good game!

I forgot to mention Metal Gear Solid 4 and Borderlands.

MGS4 has a great story and solid gameplay.

Borderlands is a total blast, though the story leaves a lot to be desired. If you just want to blow the crap out of bad guys and ill tempered midgets Borderlands is your game.
