Brutal Legend.

I will warn it's an RTS-y game after a while in, but Tim Schafer games are fucking awesome.

That, and you can literally melt faces. As a guy who barely knows anything about metal, I can say it's pretty rad.

Do give FFXIII a rental, at least. Despite the story, the combat is pretty slick.

Oh, and Valkiyria Chronicles, because it's a strategy RPG that's also 3rd-person, and the fact that it's really good. It's also goddamn beautiful. Basically, what ninja!Tera said.

Eh, I'd put this title on the back burner. Sure its decent, but the RTS combat is really, REALLY repetitive. As are the special combat techniques. Its fun enough, but given that budget is an issue, put it on the back burner.

Also, demos, DEMOS, DEMOS!!!

If you can access the Playstation Network (you have built-in WiFi, but you can also use a cable if needed), then you can get demos on most of the games mentioned. Try out a demo before you buy, just don't take our word on it.
