PS1 games collection

I started collecting old gaming sistems and games for them, and I decided to start with ps1.I bought the console and 3 games: Chrono Cross, Crash Bandicoot 3 and Delta Force-Urban Warfare.

Can you recommend some games besides these that I should add to my collection?

Anything that isn't platinum, a sport or a formula one game?

The original Twisted Metal is pretty hard to find over here.

To save time listing games, pretty much every Capcom game, every RPG, and every exlusive for the PS1 will net you a great collection. Of course getting a hold of 'every' isn't really plausible I suppose, but I think these are what make up a great PS1 collection.

Now I doubt you will these games, YouTube them if you are not sure, but these games are classics: X-Files (trust me just look it up) Nascar Racing (I know you probably dont like sport games, but this Nascar racing game is pretty cool if you want a simple racing game) Fighting Force 1&2 (may seem glitchy, but they are pretty fun) Driver 1 & 2 (these are fun games, I'm sure you'll like them a lot) PM me if you have questions about these games?rwallacefan

Wow I am glad I am not the only one that liked the X Files game. That was actually a well done FMV game surprisingly, and what was nice it had the same production values of that found in the TV series. I also liked the multiple endings and it felt like a true X Files mystery, It was actually a very good game.

I would recommend:

• Ape Escape
• Driver
• Final Fantasy VII
• Final Fantasy IX
• Crash Bandicoot 2 and 3
• Einhaider
• Metal Gear Solid

I'd get Medal of honor underground!

Fear Effect 1 and 2ohthemanatee

Seconded.

Also add Rising Zan.

Fear Effect 1 and 2ohthemanatee

definitely and they are easy to find and cheap.

Grandia was on the Saturn first, 2 years before the PS1, and the Saturn version is also better visually.

then there is also Resndent Evil , where its debatable which version is better.

as a side note , Resident Evil 2 was in development for the Saturn , but Capcom cancelled it

[QUOTE="Darkman2007"]

[QUOTE="godzillavskong"] Wow! Are any of those games available on the Saturn? I know Resident Evil is. I haven't purchased a PS1 yet, to add to my collection, and I'm just trying to add most of those titles to my Saturn if possible.

sadly, Grandia Saturn stayed in Japan. There were talks apparently between Sega and Game Arts over bringing the game to the west, possibly being translated and published by Sega, but eventually Sega said no.

its ironic, because at one point Grandia was THE RPG on the Saturn , and one of the few games at the time to match FF7 on the PS1. ironic that it ended up getting an international release.....on the rival PS1 console......

and don't even get me started on how few developers used the Saturn's hardware properly......

[QUOTE="Darkman2007"]

[QUOTE="godzillavskong"]Man, I was a Sega Fanboy growing up for sure, it just sucked that both the Saturn, and Dreamcast lost most of it's third party support rather quickly. You also had a slight few who really took advantage of the hardware, while some made piss-poor efforts! I remember playing games like RE Code Veronica on my Dreamcast, and being blown away by the visuals, only to play Tomb Raider Chronicles to see them have no fingers!!They had box carboard hands for crying out loud! I am going to try to get my hands on a copy of Grandia and Resident Evil for Saturn.I saw some cool vids on Youtube for Grandia(Saturn version). Looked nice! Do they have a North American version of Grandia?

You need to pick up Metal Gear Solid and any of the finest wrestling/skateboarding games.

[QUOTE="Darkman2007"][QUOTE="godzillavskong"] True. It's like the Saturn is todays PS3, with the architecture, and having those 2 processors, one for video, and one for audio.I think the processors were made by Hitachi. I think the Saturn was just a bit harder to develop for than the PS1.godzillavskong

[QUOTE="godzillavskong"]

[QUOTE="Darkman2007"] the Saturn is way more complex then that. it has 2 CPUs, 2 video chips, a sound chip and a sound processor, as well as a processor strictly for the CD drive. yeah , the Saturn was pretty crazy, the other issue was a lack of support for transparency effects and lighting. now that doesnt mean the Saturn can't produce effects, it has nearly twice CPU capability of the PS1, primarily for this purpose, but most developers found it too time consuming.Darkman2007

[QUOTE="Darkman2007"][QUOTE="godzillavskong"] Oh. What's the deal with those RISC chips anyways. Isn't there something special , or different about those?

godzillavskong

Resident Evil was on the Saturn too, something people seem to forget when they mention it as "a PS1 exclusive"

good version too, with its share of good and bad against the PS version.

I feel the opposite as you towards Ehrgeiz, but to each his own.

Jade Cocoon: Story of the Tamamayu if you have ever heard of it or seen it. Good RPG a bit short but it was quite fun from what I have played and been told.

here's my PS1 game collection:

• Duke Nukem Time to Kill
• ECW Anarchy Rulez
• NHL Blades of Steel 2000
• Tom Clancy Rainbow Six Lone Wolf
• Tom Clancy Rainbow Six Rogue Spear
• WWF Smackdown
• WWF Smackdown 2 Know Your Role
• WCW vs. The World
• WCW Thunder
• WWF In Your House

If you enjoy JRPGs, the first 2 Suikoden games are PS1 exclusives (though I think the first game is now available on PSN), and are quite fun.
