Capcom is an industry giant that has made a name for itself by developing several excellent titles across a wealth of console generations. The company's impact on gaming has been massive, with its work across fighting and action games being genre-defining. Of course, Capcom is no stranger to dabbling in other genres, even if many people consider the seventh generation of gaming to be somewhat rigid from a creative standpoint.
The PS3 is a great console that took some time to get going, with Capcom releasing several games on this console that are a blast in their own right. Capcom's best PS3 games were able to make a huge impression on players and sold millions of copies between them.
10 DmC: Devil May Cry
There's no denying that Capcom's attempt at a Devil May Cry reboot ended up being largely unsuccessful due to backlash from the core fanbase. However, on its own, DmC: Devil May Cry is actually a pretty competent and fun action game in its own right.
The new character designs and easier combat served to alienate a lot of the fans, which is was led to the game's downfall. However, players looking for a competent action title can still give this game a shot.
9 Resident Evil 5
Resident Evil 5 clearly took a ton of notes from its predecessor, lessening the horror aspects of the title in favor of a more action-heavy approach. The results had a mixed response, with the integration of co-op being fairly divisive as well.
However, Resident Evil 5 is still a great and competent action title despite its seemingly uninteresting art style. The game definitely had some good things going for it, even if many fans don't like this title and its successor.
8 Asura's Wrath
Asura's Wrath is a fun action title that really takes its cinematic storytelling seriously, featuring one of the angriest video game protagonists of all time. The game is littered with quick-time events, which may not be up everyone's alley.
However, players who deal with some of the caveats of this title will find themselves enjoying a bombastic action-heavy experience. The scale of the battles in these games is truly massive and makes the game feel larger than life.
7 DuckTales: Remastered
DuckTales is a legendary side-scroller that received a remaster on the PS3 after the longest of times. The game is a blast to play through, featuring great old-school platforming action and a fun art style to boot.
Fans of this classic title really can't go wrong with DuckTales: Remastered. It may seem like a simple title when taken at face value, but there's something magical in its simplicity that makes it a real blast to play through.
6 Dead Rising 2
Dead Rising 2 is one of Capcom's best PS3 games, with the story of Chuck Greene as he deals with a massive zombie outbreak being quite riveting indeed. The gameplay of this title is polished, with players mowing through enemies using an array of random and entertaining weaponry.
This game was released around the time when Dead Rising 2 was in its heyday, with the game being a thrill ride from start to end. The wacky gameplay of this title coupled with a serious story made for a fun combination indeed.
5 Devil May Cry 4
Devil May Cry 4 is another great addition to the long-running series, with Dante's action-packed adventures being a blast to play through. The combat is as smooth as ever, with the bosses being quite awe-inspiring encounters as well.
Players will need to come to grips with the challenging combat system of this game, which prioritizes combos and stylish moves over everything else. As long as players can dodge enemy attacks and mix up their arsenal though, they'll have a great time with this title.
4 Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
Dragon's Dogma is a fun open-world action game in which the combat is easily the biggest highlight. Players will have so much fun climbing monstrosities and wailing on them that they'll forgive the game for its generic world and boring story.
With a sequel right around the corner, there's no better time to get into the first game. The combat is still as fresh as ever, with different playstyles being quite diverse in their own right. As far as Capcom's PS3 offerings go, they don't get much better than this.
3 Okami HD
It takes something really special for a game released on the PS2 to still be featured among the best PS3 games, but that's just how amazing Okami is. The game was a commercial failure when it launched, so fans were glad to see Capcom giving it a second chance.
The Zelda-esque exploration coupled with the innovative use of the Celestial Brush in both puzzles and combat made for a great time. Okami HD may have some dated design philosophies that can be grating to get through, but its beautiful art style and imaginative gameplay more than make up for these weaknesses.
2 Marvel VS Capcom 2: New Age Of Heroes
Marvel vs. Capcom 2 is considered by many people to be one of the greatest fighting games ever made. The game has been ported to multiple systems, including the PS3, and is a blast to play on just about every platform that it features.
In spite of all the other stellar fighting games that Capcom released around the time, there's still something to be said about the brilliance of Marvel vs. Capcom 2. Something about the stellar sprite work and amazing gameplay still makes this title wildly playable to this day.
1 Street Fighter 4
The Street Fighter series is easily one of Capcom's biggest and most decorated franchises, so it's only fitting that most consider Street Fighter 4 to be the best PS3 game from Capcom. The studio pulled out all the stops in developing this amazing fighting game, with its mechanics being as refined as ever.
The tight gameplay and great visuals of the title helped it stand out at the time as a stellar fighting game that fans of the genre need to check out. With Street Fighter 6 right around the corner, players who want to experience the classics will enjoy Street Fighter 4 quite a bit.
