I've got both a PS3 and an XBox and a backlog of damn near 20 games due to buying random games cheap over time and just never touching them due to how hectic my life is at times. So I'm really not sure what to go for first lol. I'm a bit worn of FPS games at the moment, having done completionist playthroughs of Fallout: New Vegas, Farcry 3, and the Game of the Year edition of Borderlands over the last couple months. I generally am trying to pick something fresh but, a bit unusual of me, can't seem to decide which to go for first. What do you guys think? And why, what makes this game so different or unique?

My backlog is:
Gears of War 1-3
Valkyria Chronicles
Infamous 1&2
The Darkness
Darksiders
Kingdoms of Amalur
Devil May Cry 1-4
God of War 1-3 and Origins HD Collection
Dante's Inferno
Asura's Wrath

Also, if you've got any suggestions or recommendations for me on games to take a look at in the future then please send them my way.

Out of that list I've played The Darkness, Kingdoms of Amalur (demo only), Darksiders and Dante's Inferno.

The Darkness is probably the most unique. It's an FPS with some lite RPG elements. It's not linear though and you get to roam a small town and even take on some side missions. The plot is amazing and you should love the artstyle. The plot is reason enough alone to play the game but if you're looking for a unique gameplay experience then the whole use of darkness should be more than enough to satiate your quest for such. There are also the WW2 levels...

KoA is a rather easy action-RPG. Now I can't comment on the story but gameplay wise it wasn't anything new. You can quickly combine any attack (i.e you can combine ranged attacks with melee) and the open-world is generally what you would expect.

Darksiders is an action-adventure game with puzzles and some lite RPG elements. In this sense it has an old-school feeling to it and is able to mix platforming, action and exploration (in an open world) quite well. Story is somewhat interesting too.

If I were you I would play The Darkness first.

Dante's Inferno is a very short action-adventure game. It gets the poem all wrong but nonetheless provides some enjoyment even if all the enemies become repetitive after a while. For me the best part was fighting the end boss on the hardest difficulty as it was quite challenging but other than that, it's not exactly the best game in its genre and quite disappointing actually especially after I had played Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (a game you *must* play BTW if you haven't already).

I'll second The Darkness. The less you know about the game the better. Not to sound like a softee, but it is a touching game and one of the first games I played where I gave a damn about the characters. It also has the most memorable little moment I've ever experienced in a game. You also get crazy powers and a minion to throw at baddies.

Okay, enough about my 'feelings' and back to games with big explosions 'n stuff. That said, you should add Vanquish to your list. Its the best TPS I've ever played and it is insane.

Oh and don't forget Valkyria Chronicles.

Ehhh, if you're looking for something different, Darkness isn't really the way to go. It's another First Person Shooter, after all. And while Vanquish and Gears of War are both a lot of fun, the same thing goes for them.

I would strongly recommend Darksiders for something different. Think Zelda mixed with God of Wars combat and Bulletstorm style over-the-top story.

Gears of War 1-3 - First one was enthralling in its time. Don't know how well it holds up, but the sequels never captured me in the same way.
Valkyria Chronicles - Never Played, not a fan of JRPGs
Infamous 1&2 - First one was pretty good, with a great ending. 2nd one is one of my favorite games of this generation...so I'd say play them soon.
The Darkness - I never really got into the first game. Controls seemed over complicated at the time, and when I went to try it out again, a friend told me to avoid it because it didn't hold up very well. I had a lot of fun for about 2 days with the sequel though.
Darksiders - First takes about 10 hours for full completion. 2nd game takes probably 3 times as long. Both are a lot of fun, though I prefer the first.
Kingdoms of Amalur - Got bored of it really quick. The story was flat out uninteresting, and everyone talks way too much. Combat was good, but not enough to keep me coming back for more.
Devil May Cry 1-4 - Never played more than a demo
God of War 1-3 and Origins HD Collection - I honestly never got the attraction...but if you're looking for a button masher with some brutal animations, it's all the rage.
Dante's Inferno - Tried the demo, seemed like a pretty lame rip off of God of War.
Asura's Wrath - Only if you like long ass cutscenes with a handful of quick time events thrown in. There's very little in the way of gameplay...it's basically just an Anime.
