No list of the top PS3 games for Christmas 2009 would be complete without Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. This is the highest scoring game of the year with universally positive reviews and deservedly so because it is an awesome, polished, exciting, third-person action and adventure game. Players take on the role of Nathan Drake, a fortune hunter with a passing resemblance to Indiana Jones. Great cinematic storytelling, addictive gameplay and an engaging multiplayer mode make this a must buy for any PS3 gamer. It got a Teen rating from ESRB so it’s not suitable for younger gamers.

You can hardly have missed the hype surrounding the release of the latest installment in the Call of Duty series from developer Infinity Ward. This is a highly polished and cinematic first-person shooter which throws you into various deadly missions around the world from South America to Russia. The lack of dedicated servers won’t stop PS3 players from enjoying the multiplayer mode and with the campaign and Special Ops to keep you busy this will keep you happy through the holidays. This game got a Mature rating from ESRB and it doesn’t flinch from exposing the bloody side of war so don’t buy this for the kids.
