Red Dead Redemption.

It was my Game of the Generation.

Mine was Skyrim, but don't play it on the PS3. I have been told the PS3 version is buggy as hell, perhaps patches have made it better?

PS3 version of Skyrim is passable, but you have to watch save file size, so trying to do everything in one run is a no-go unless you are really careful.

Looking at my current library, here's what I'd recommend:

Dragon's Crown
PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale
EX Troopers (JP)
Sengoku Basara series (all but SB: Samurai Heroes are JP)
No More Heores: Heroes' Paradise
Yakuza 3 & 4
AquaPazza
Folklore
Demon's Souls
Tekken Hybrid

Some I haven't got but plan to get:

Akiba's Trip
Arcana Heart Love Max
GalGun

And some good digital games:
Everyday Shooter
Super Stardust HD
Space Invaders Infinity Gene
Gundemonium Collection
Soldner X & X2
Critter Crunch
All the PixelJunk games (loved PixelJunk Monsters most of all, personally)
The Last Guy
Tokyo Jungle
Hoard
Dead Nation
Shatter

PS3 is worth buying just for the digital games, honestly. Tokyo Jungle, Shatter and PixelJunk Monsters would probably be in a top 10 list of my favorite games of that entire generation.

I don't have too many PS3 games, but I also recommend Yakuza 4. The Guided Fate Paradox seems pretty good so far as well.

Twisted Metal is criminally underrated. Metal Gear Solid 4, Metal Gear Solid Collection, Ni No Kuni, Mega Man 9 and 10, Infamous 1 and 2, Team Ico Collection.
