Someone posted a bit ago about the super station one fpga system and i decided to preorder one. Now I’m curious, what would all of your essentials be for the playstation system?
No need to give me a whole list, but if you can share me some of your standouts and why, id appreciate it.
i’ve played very little of ps1 and didn’t even realize it was a system until the ps2 came out!
Having played through this recently (via PS1 classics on a PS3):
Very important game to the genre. Absolutely fucking miserable to play in places.
Very slow paced, long load times, awful platforming dungeons. But fascinating plot and characters. And then disc 2 happens and it’s completely batshit but also barely a game. And there’s sequences like the prison that just drag on forever. It’s worth playing but you’re gonna need patience.
The funny thing about it is that despite it being revered as a classic but nearly everyone, it’s also unlikely to ever get a remake or remaster because it’s blatantly unfinished and Tetsuya Takahashi left the company decades ago to found Monolith Soft and make different Xeno games.
Yeah, you have to be okay with clunky PS1 era RPG controls and pacing. But if you’re looking for PS1 games to play in the first place, you probably are.
