Should I get A PS1?

just to have all sony's consoles :P I was too young at the time the ps1 was out, also I can play games like the first MGS on it, yet I can play all those on my ps2 aswell, its more of like to have a complete collection of sony consoles :PLycanthropy24

Do the games play differently between backwards compatibility and the real thing?AkroyVenslaka

Not often. Some games, like MGS 3, the frame rate will fall and the cutscenes will start to look awkward. Otherwise, there are only nominal issues

I'll admit.

There is something Nostalgic about having the original PS.

It just had sooo many good games!

yeah, go for it, they go for quite cheap nowadays.

but a word of warning , I heard the early models are not very reliable, they break easily. but suposidly they have better sound quality.

if I were you, I would go for one of the later models, or better still, go for the slim PS1, which is the console I have. its worked perfectly for 9 years while other consoles I have broke down.

the slim PS1 has an external power supply though, but other then that its reliable and quiet, its cheap too,

nah dude ps1's are stupid the grey one is too big and it looks bad and the slimline costs more than its worth. if you have at least a ps2 already whats the point it plays all the same games and the controller is exactly the same.

Slimline? You mean the PS One (the tiny one)?
