    My cousin from Pakistan needs some PS3 games as he can't get them for cheap, and he has a PS3 which he can't get games for as they cost a lot in that country.  I need stuff that can only be experienced on the PS3.   Here's what I got: 
     

     
    • Gran Turismo 5 - First and only thing he requested.  He said he needed that more than anything, go figure GT5 is big in Pakistan too.
    • Eternal Sonata, Star Ocean IV International, Fallout 3 GOTY, 3D Dot Game Heroes, Resonance of Fate, and Fallout New Vegas, White Knight, Borderlands GOTY, and Disgaea 3.
     
    He already played FF13 on the 360 via other means, as some laws are different in Pakistan...i don't think I need to explain which one.  So, give me PS3 RPGs that don't really need online and should supply him with a year of gaming until his dad visits him again.  I was thinking of VC but it seems too hard for him, as he is 16 years old.  I need stuff he would play instead of not play, and he likes Square Enix a lot.    
     
    EDIT:  His dad leaves on Saturday, so I need them in 3 days. 
    EDIT2:  Forgot to mention, his internet is shit.

    Dragon Age: Origins? Also it isn't a traditional RPG, but Yakuza 3 does have some RPG elements. Oh and Borderlands!

    Lamo. Just because one person wants GT5 doesn't mean it's big in the whole country. 
      
    Get him Demon's Souls

    Not really sure what you mean by ''can only be experienced on PS3'' and then you have Fallout and Resonance of Fate in there. But anyway, Dragon Age, I guess.

    Mass Effect 2?  If he hasn't played it on 360 yet.
     
    EDIT--Oh. never mind, missed the only on PS3 part.  Lots of people like Folklore, but I haven't played it and it's pretty old at this point.

    Get him Tales of Vesperia. It's a great RPG that will give him about ~40 hours of play time on his first playthrough with plenty of reason to go back through again. I played it on the 360 but it's out on the PS3 as well.

    @Gabriel: @BulletproofMonk: Dragon Age he got on PC via his corner store, same for Mass Effect.  Also RoF and Fallout he wanted by request.

    Only in Japanese, though. Unless I've missed the news that it had an English release? =S

    Dude Vesperia is in Japanese. Will he be able to understand it? It's a text heavy RPG, VERY text heavy. If he doesn't know the language it's pointless.

    Did he ever try Borderlands? That's sort of RPGish. 
     
    White Knight Chronicles is another RPG but not for everyone.

    Is Neptunia or whatever a good RPG? 
     
    I saw it at the game store. I know it's about console wars but that's as far as my knowledge goes.

    I don't think age has any real bearing on the matter; I didn't have any difficulty beating it when I was 14, at least. 
     
    Disgaea 3 is one of the best PS3 RPGs, albeit a bit old.

    ...I just got the joke now.  At first I was wondering what I said could be said as racist, completely wasn't thinking RPGs like that.  The hell is wrong with you guys?  >.> 
     
    EDIT:  Added Disgaea 3, I think that is all and should be enough.  I hope.

    Fairly sure my brother has it. 
     
    Edit: Apparently I imagined that he got it for xmas. Strange. 
     
    He did have the 360 version, but I traded that with Rhaknar.
