The PlayStation Network is slowly coming out of its hacker-induced comma, but even if you’re still left in the online dark for the time being, that doesn’t mean you can’t at least have some PlayStation 3 fun without it. There is a satisfying amount of single-player games for the PS3 that require no online connectivity or multi-player to enjoy.

That’s why I’ve gone ahead and assembled a nice tiny list of single-player games that are personally worth a sporting try, especially during this long PSN downtime. Take a look!

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

If you need me to tell you why Naughty Dog’s second treasure-seeking action-filled romp is worth its weight in polygons, then well, I don’t think we can be friends. Plus with Uncharted 3 coming later this year, this is the perfect time to get caught up in the on-going adventures of Nathan Drake and his salty partner in crime Victor “Sully” Sullivan.

Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time

Okay, so remember those Daffy Duck cartoons where he stars as Duck Dogers in the 24½th Century? This game is like that, but instead you play as a cute bobcat looking creature that’s handy with a wrench, who has a robot buddy that he carries as a backpack, and roams the entire universe exploring new worlds, solving puzzles and defeating corny bad guys. Yes, I know — it fabulous!

inFamous

Now if you want your heroes in the more conventional no fuzzy ears and tails department, then how about Cole MacGrath. After a disastrous twist of fate, Cole can wield electricity through sheer will in this critically acclaimed sandbox game — where every action, either good or bad, determines the future and range of powers of our hero. Oh and inFamous 2 is soon on the way as well, so you might want get started on it.

Prince of Persia

This isn’t your goofy “some days you just can’t get ride of a bomb” Batman — far from it. In Arkham Asylum, this Bats must travel through the hellish depths of Gotham City’s most dangerous holder of villains petty and infamous. The game play is a sensational blend of half stealth, half brawler, and whatever half left adventurer that is one of the best games staring a comic book superhero that have come in a long while.

Other honorable mentions: Vanquish, Assassins Creed 2, 3D Dot Game Heroes, Metal Gear Solid 4, & BioShock.
