Is it common for a PS3 to freeze and play up with SOME games?

I've had issue with two separate copies of God Of War 3 and Uncharted games. It works with other games, some it acts out and freezes, don't really understand why this is.

Yeah, my FIFA 13 can sometimes freeze, which hasn't happened when I played it months and months ago, I think my PS3 is just on the fritz but with that game.

When I got The Last of Us, it wouldn't read the disc, and only that game, but the disc would work with other PS3's.

Whenever I put it in the PS3, or loaded the game, I had to tilt the PS3 vertically to get it to work lol.

I've gone back to my PS2 and my best game for time wasting: Suikoden V.

Been on a fifa 14 binge. Mostly UT but my mates are playing pro clubs again and we seem to be stagnating in division 5.

It's just okay at this stage. I wouldn't be paying $70 for it - not bad as a gift though.

Renewed PS Plus so i'm trying to finish off my backlog abit.

PS3
Dead Space 3 - Just started this it's different from 1 & 2, not as scary but still good so far.

I suggest playing this game on pure survival mode.

It's give the game an extra edge.

The Darkness II - Finished the story, really good. Onto Vendetta mode, i think it's DLC?
Coma:Mortuary - Only just started it. Actually, only got 10 minutes in before it crashed. Seemed interesting though.

Came out last Friday.

Played it a lot when it first came out on Gameboy and $6.50 seemed an alright price to buy it again.

Would I have needed to play The Darkness to play The Darkness II?

I've heard good things about the game but never played the first one.

Yes and no. They have one of those "Previously on The Darkness..." videos at the beginning and they do reference the first game a couple of times throughout the 2nd game, but i don't think it's necessary to play it. But yeah, The Darkness II is really good. Thought it was going to be one of those "Ok" games, but it's actually really solid. Voice acting, graphics and gameplay all really well done (the controls will feel overwhelming at first though, even towards the end of my playthrough i was fumbling a bit when there were a lot of enemies), my only complaint is probably the FOV, it feels like everything is zoomed in even on the highest setting.

Thanks.

I might give it a go because it's only $9 at EB from memory.

I would DEFINITELY play the first, it will give much more impetus into the actions taken and witnessed in 2.

The first is nowhere near as accomplished as the 2nd in terms of gameplay, it's slow and plodding and isn't very great to handle at all. But the story and feel of the game is incredible, there was a lot of love that went into fleshing out the world. It's well worth sticking with right to the end.

The Darkness became one of my favourite series from last year with it's 2 titles, both are great to me but for very different reasons. The 2nd one is a great all round game with very little wrong, the first has a lot wrong gameplay wise but story wise is top notch.

Play the first game, it's very cheap now and among the best of last gen.
The Darkness 2 was a solid sequel but very short.

Can you give me the gist of it? What is it like?

Yeah i probably should have added that. Just under 7 hours for me to complete the main story and another 2 hours to do the Vendetta add-on.
