Favorite PS1 Game

staceyjones085

Hay Peeps just curious what peoples favourite ps1 game is.

My personal favs would be the Oddworld games and Metal gear solid.

At the moment it's Castlevania SOTN as I'm still on a bit of a high after playing through it properly for the first time.

Back in the day it would have been Metal Gear Solid. Must have played through it about 10 times over the space of a couple of years.

CiDeRmAn

Mine are Rage Racer, Wipeout 2097, Raiden DX, Descent and Need for Speed Road Challenge.

ancapailldorcha

Either Resident Evil 3 or Metal Gear Solid. I'd probably give it to Resi 3 as it was the first game that ever got me hooked and the first game that ever scared me.

thefa

MGS, Tekken 3 and Rogue Trip.

The Pheasant2

Crash Team Racing/Crash 3: Warped...maybe Tomb Raider or Tekken 2

Gatling

The original resident evil and syphon filter for giggles

Retr0gamer

Suikoden 2 for me. There's rumours of a PSN re-release somore people can play it hopefully.

I met the guy who led the team who developed Speed Freaks, an Irish based team.
They got tons of support from Sony before they went to an expo where they were treated to the primo spot going to the previously unannounced Crash Team Racing and Speed Freaks got slung onto a small display and it got a minor release with little fanfare.
He seemed pretty p1ssed off, even now all these years later.

Having grown up with the PS1 my personal favourites from my childhood are gran turismo 1 & 2, ridge racer, Rayman, GTA London, Porsche challenge, crash bandicoot 3 and the spyro games.

L1m1tless

MGS of course, but I also liked overboard, probably because it was one of the first games I got and didnt have much else to play. Nostalgia factor

MrVestek

Spice World. Best game ever.

Jack burton

Silent hill, MGS, RE 2, oddworld. All the usuals really but i do love some pretty wierd ones aswell. Bust a groove and nightmare creatures are 2 uncommon ones that spring to mind

L1m1tless

Oh I forgot about Bust a Groove! A guilty pleasure for sure!

TechnoFreek

Wipeout 2097 defo up there for me.
Played heaps of Tekken 2 and Ridge Racer Revolution also.

Flaregon

resident evil 2, total need a copy.

megaten

Digimon is probably the one I played the most.

Dale Parish

Oddworld (both of them of course), Warzone 2100, Crash Bandicoot Warped, GTA
(I didn't have many games :pac: )

the groutch

Probably Gauntlet Legends, although Vib Ribbon wouldnt be far behind.
Tomb Raider & Theme Park also get honourable mentions, although the ps1 isnt where I first played them.

Mister-M5

Metal Gear Solid
Tomb Raider 2
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 & 2
Coolboarders
Theme Park

Pun intended?

Rollcage and it's sequel, the predictably named Rollcage 2.
They were pure belters, Wipeout on Wheels but with added awesomeness.

Just skip to around 3:00 to get to the game itself, around 10:00 gets you to an even better track.

totally forgot monster rancher lol.

Dan_Solo

All the biggies covered. I'll add Virus 2000 to the mix. Loved that game bit was too damn hard and I could never find any codes for it. :-(

Stuxnet

Wipeout 2097, MGS of course...
surprised no mention for Tenchu, fricking quality !

Captain Chaos

MGS, Res Evil 2, Wipeout 2097. It's hard to pick as there were so many classics on the PS1. Colony Wars worth a mention too.

AlwaysAnyTime

Time Crisis 1
Pandemonium
Lomax
Die Hard Trilogy (How has nobody mentioned this yet???)
Destruction Derby 1
GTA 1
Crash Bandicoot 1
Tomb Raider 1
Tekken 2 and 3

LOL! And while i was in the middle of typing the above post I received a message notification from an ebay seller confirming the unlisted PS1 games he has from a list i gave him. Speak of the devil!

You haven't lived until you've played 4 player westlife on the PS1 with arcade sticks.

Forgot about destruction derby. Fantastic game. Didn't care much about the sequel though.

I'm the opposite, the original had a certain simplicity and charm but ultimately there was way too much screen tearing and polygon folding and other texture fubbed upedness that makes it hard to play now, at least for me. Destruction Derby 2 felt like a new game from a new team but was fast and visuals solid, though the charm was lost somewhere along the way.

So sad that the forced 50 hz with borders ruin the Pal version

That's pretty much all PAL games. Unless its a European only exclusive you really should never buy a PAL ps1 game.

The Domonator

Vagrant Story.

Unless you started collecting PAL PS1 games years ago and are in too deep to turn back

Well that's me, I'll be trying to replace them all... When I get money. I think enter now sold all hisand rebought them as NTSC with money left over.

o1s1n

The one thing about doing that (for me anyway) is I really don't like the presentation of NTSC US ps1 games. They're dog ugly in comparison.
