What to Buy Your Kids for the Holidays - PS3

As with the Xbox 360, take note that many of the games are violent. Also, if there's a game that catches your eye on this list but the person you're buying for only has a 360, check and see if it's available for that system. There's a lot of crossover between the two. Also, if your person has a PS3, double check the 360 list for game ideas (just in case).

Just like before, here's a guide to what to get your friend or family member who owns a PS3.

* = also available on Xbox 360

THE BASICS - The various nonsense you absolutely need if you have a PS3.

BUY THEM SOMETHING FROM THE PLAYSTATION NETWORK - If you know what you're doing, you can go in and get your person a game directly from the console.

Mega Man 9*

That's all I have for this one. The safest bet is probably to buy some great Blu-ray movies, but LittleBigPlanet is a definite necessity. Again, please leave a comment with any questions or additions to this list. Happy shopping and happy holidays.
