to be more specific im looking for a hack and slash, something along the line of champions of norath. i freaking loved that, me and my brother would play for hours. so is there any decent games of a similar kind for the PS3? preferable one i can play with my brother.

I've never played Champions of Norath.

I really enjoyed Devil May Cry 4. The level design is crappy and repetitive but the combat is excellent.

I beat the game 2.5 times and would have continued going if I was skilled enough.

FAT PRINCESS!

Cartoony violence, small amount of upgrading, can do TDM and a capture the flag (but you feed the flag cake so when the enemy picks it up they move stupidly slow). Bots make up the numbers, you can be a number of classes (worker, warrior, ranger, mage, healer, I think theres another) by changing hats.

It is on PSN for about £8.

Sacred 2: Fallen Angel or Untold Legends. To be honest your going to struggle to find many.

Champions of Norrath is a spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance. No clue what's like that on the PS3, but that might help out guys who don't know CoN.

Untold Legends, there is one for the ps3 I believe. Um, possibly Demon's Souls?

Download Deathspank. Decent hack n slash fun, with local co-op. And the sequel is out, too.

Deathspank. Make sure you get the version with the expansions since it's cheaper than Deathspank on it's own. You can get it from PSN for £10. It's an hilarious, beautiful, hack and slash RPG.

I loved Champions by the way =D

I thought Sacred 2 was kind meh.

Champions of Norath was the successor to the Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance games yes? I don't think there's anything much like that other than Sacred and Untold Legends. Demon's Souls would be somewhat close in style (and is awesome) but might not be want you want. It's slower paced for the most part.

God of War 3 and Devil May Cry 4 mayhaps.

I'd say Untold Legends more so than Demon's Souls when you look at the difficulty of both and how they play out compared to Norrath.

Ninja Gaiden Sigma 1 or 2 as both are fantastic games but not for the casual gamer as they can be quite difficult at times but not too much that after a few attempts you cannot get past it and great fun too.

Sengoko Basara 3 looks pretty good

Also, Bayoneta and Darksiders not mentioned and are rather cheap too

Too Bad.
I was going to suggest that one too. My wife and I spent a lot of time playing S2 and the only problem we had was that she doesn't like old Genesis (when Peter Gabriel was with them) music so our playlist for the game was a bit scattered but as it's one of the only ps3 games with a custom soundtrack option, I can't complain.

Unfortunately there aren't as many of these games as there should be. I'll probably get Dethspank eventually but I try not to spend more than $5 on the downloadable games... in case I decide to ditch the ps3 at some point.

If you want legit action rpg just play on PC. I'm not a PC fan but the format controlling the genre seems pretty self evident to me. Even if your computer is really bad it doesn't matter much since a lot of good dungeon crawlers are really old.

Get God of War Collection, then get God of war 3.
