Those were the favorites I played, outside of sports titles.

• Syphone Filter 2
• Resident Evil 2

10. Driver

I remember that I did this thing back in the Retro Gaming board,and here's my pick

1. Kaettekita Cyborg Kuro-Chan

2. Irritating Stick

3. Dino Crisis

4. Bishi Bashi Special

5. Pepsiman

6. Point Blank

7. Rising Zan: The Samurai Gunman

8. Project: Horned Owl

9. In the Hunt

I guess these are the games that made the PS1 looked good for me as a single 1mb memory card can serve it right

outside of rpgs and some few games in 3d and 2d games the console has notoriously poorly aged

Not a single legacy of Kain and 1 Tekken 3, very surprising.

such a hard list to make.. so many good games

1. Resident Evil 2

2. Metal Gear Solid

3. Oddworld Abe's Exoddus

4. Silent Hill

5. Final Fantasy VII

6. Resident Evil

10. Suikoden II

• Resident Evil 2
• Rockman X4
• Dino Crisis 2
• Metal Gear Solid
• Taken 3
• Silent Hill
• Final Fantasy 7
• Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.
• Street Fighter Alpha 3
• Tomb Raider 2

lol wow, what a bunch of pathetic lists.

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit

Never played
-Megaman X4 - but I love me some Megaman X, so I imagine this would rank high for me when I get around to it.
-Xenogears - video game sold on video game story? no thanks
-Street Fighter Alpha games - I was under the impression that the Street Fighter spinoff type games suck : /
-Alundra - Never played, looks cool though
-Dino Crisis - Only Shinji Mikami game I haven't played, and I've played that piece of crap P.N. 03

It was a pretty unique game, I remember playing at Target on the PS1 Kiosk, unfortunetly I didn't get my PSX until like...2000...I did the vast majority of my gaming that gen on the N64

@gameofthering: Holy shit, you know Unholy War? I loved that game. The concept was so cool and it was beyond fun to play against friends. That kamikaze guy in an aircraft was such a psycho. I also remember some Rhino, an overland piranha which could spawn offspring, some mechanical guy who shot sawblades and some scarecrow-like lizard magician.

Crystal Dynamics were top devs with diverse portfolio back then.

Now they're only top devs.

I hate they are forced to make only TR games.

On that note I'll definitely mention MediEvil and Soul Reaver. I'd also put Alien Resurrection up there.

Mm, I'm lazy so I'll just give you my top 1.

Symphony of the Night. I didn't think so back then, but all these years later it's become one of my most replayed games ever. Even now I still have the urge to play it again.

Also played Final Fantasy Tactics last year for the very first time. Great game, definitely would rank high on my list.

@jg4xchamp: I've played both Dino Crisis 1 & 2. The sequel was like RE4 for its time albeit with still prerendered backgrounds, although the original actually didn't use that.

Btw, SH1 was to me the superior game. That first major scene in the alley in the dark and then the segue to the bar...

Anyway, I also felt Alone in the Dark New Nightmare was a good and underrated game.

I've also played Ape Escape and it was one of the first games which forced you to use Dual Shock IIRC.

I've literally played hundreds of games on PS1. There are so many to remember. Tenchu for example, although I played the first one at friend's but I had the second one and completed it.

Shadow Man was also a very good title from Acclaim. I miss that studio somewhat.

Oh and how can we forget Colony Wars, G-Police, Wipeout and Formula 1 '97? And Tekken 3. And Front Mission? And some decent 2nd tier games like Ace Combat. I've got so many fond memories - today's Sony couldn't have been any more different.

Fvck, I forgot Gex! There was also this cool game with this Tai Chi / Kung Fu tiger. What was its name?

I also enjoyed Wild9 a lot, a sadistic spiritual successor to Earthworm Jim.

There was also Akuji the Heartless by Crystal Dynamics.

And amazing car combat game - Vigilante 8. I put many hours into its sequel. Lord Clyde with his limo was my fav.

Have you ever played Soul Reaver?

@Salt_The_Fries: Yeah, I would play the multi-player (board game mode) for hours and hours with friends. Shame, but not many people seem to talk about the game.

@uninspiredcup: No Order and only exclusives/time exclusives

1) Symphony of the night

2) Crash Bandicoot

3) Tekken 3

4) Metal Gear Solid

5) Resident Evil 2

6) Final Fantasy 7

7) Final Fantasy 9

8) Chrono cross

9) Gran Turismo

10) Vagrant Story

( and there are plenty more to make it to top 10 depends your taste actually )

No, because a lot of the "positive" comments for those games revolves around the video game story, and I'm pretty transparent at how much I value a video game story.

But it's on my steam library so one day I'll get around to it, maybe.

Really subjective list here since I haven't played many classic PS1 games. I owned the superior console, N64, instead :^)

Also I played some of the games on this list on different platforms (MGS1 on PC, RE2 on N64, FF games on PC, etc.) but it's the same shit

1. Symphony of the Night

2. Metal Gear Solid

3. Mega Man X4

4. Final Fantasy VIII (huge personal bias here because this FF game has my favorite music in the whole series)

5. Resident Evil 2

6. Mega Man X5

7. Final Fantasy VII

8. Mega Man X6

9. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2

10. I don't know
