How nostalgic. Man I remember back then it was all about owning all the consoles just to play the best games, not this fanboy crap.

Since when? It hasn't changed at all. The only diffrence now is that System Wars exsists. People would always argue over Nintendo and Sony or whatever. It's been the case for a very long time. Only now that the internet is more popular is it the case that people can now express these feelings over a forum. Nostalgia is an annoyance, it stops you looking forward to the future. The more you rely on nostalgia for pleasure, the more it starts to bring you down. Nostalgia is not a good thing. Most of these games are complete crap by todays standards, and I prefer to be safe in the knowledge of that. MGS is one of the few games that has retained much of it's quality since 1998. Even FF:Tactics is trumped by it's own remake, by a fairly big margin.

[QUOTE="st1ka"][QUOTE="Salt_The_Fries"] Fear Effect? :D It was 2000, hence I left it out :)dattruth4real
WRONG!! it was Fear Effect 2

:P

anyone remember heart of darkness? that was actually a pretty cool game. not sure what year that was tho, and I was a little kid back when I first tried shadow man, that game was pretty disturbing, but lots of fun, its sequal was good too.

yea man heart of darkness rocked. I got it for my 9th bday in 1999.

I have a PS1 but I like the PS2 more because it has better exclusives that hold more memories.

Yeah the late '90s is probably my favorite gaming era right now, but also including PC and N64.

Full of win. I remember when I got my PS1 around that time there were so many titles to choose from, one of the main reasons why PS1 was awesome.

Too bad it lacked in variety and quantity. It had amazing titles but most of it's major titles were either platformers or adventure games.

It never felt good to be a cow, sheep, dog or any other animal. But it sure as hell always feels good to be a gamer and play and respect games from every platforms :D.lebanese_boy
You need to leave System Wars for life! Right Now! Your logic makes to much sense for us, just get out

All of the games mentioned aside from the super duper exclusives (MGS) are the reasons why I didnt buy a PS2. I loved the innovation and freedom the PS1 brought to the industry, it was all about games games games!!!! When the PS2 launched, it was very successful, but none of the quirky franchises were present during last gen that made the Playstation brand for me... I still remember having a huge library of PS1 games and enjoying every one of them....man I miss the old days

Game On...

No... I strongly believe that the Ps1 is not only better than the Ps3 and the Ps2 itself, but the best console in history. Long Linve the original Playstation, FF and MGS 4EVAH

I spent countless hours on Vigilant8 dude, it's came out on the Xbox live arcade with good graphics but nothing beats the original one.

Also Einhanderis so cool, I wish for it to come out on Xbox Live Arcade.

Golden Eye - Platformer, Adventure Game?

Star Fox 64 - Platformer, Adventure Game? Perfect Dark - Platformer, Adventure Game?

Diddy Kong Racing - Platformer, Adventure Game?

Mario Kart 64 - Platformer, Adventure Game?

Jet Force Gemini - Platformer, Adventure Game?

I think you can see where you go bust...

The PS1 adopted the greatness of the SNES and ruled the industry. I will agree its impact in history is rivaled only by the NES in terms of greatness. Game On...

Feels good to see "console" gaming at it's finest backthen, now almost all the developers are influenced by the PC games, it is becoming blurrier by the time, the majority are shooters and WRPGs and the minority are console games, I like them all but I want my console games back :cry:

More images representing the JRPGs :D

In general -- besides graphics -- 1998 utterly DESTROYS 2008 in every way possible. The variety back then was insane. Now it's the same casual/music/shooter crap.

Pc was way better off that year. We got tribes, starcraft, Grim Fandago, Fallout 2, Thief, Kings Quest: Mask of Eternity, Unreal, Baldurs Gate and let us not forget Half-Life. Most of those games are something major for their own genre's.
