Tenchu: Stealth Assassins (1998)Īlundra takes the 53rd spot on this list of the best PS1 games ever made, bringing a Landstalker meets Legend of Zelda vibe to Sony’s maiden console.Įvery game character has a special feature that separates them apart from the crowd. If you can keep your eyes open for long enough, that is. It’s also made by the same people as the Resident Evil games, which means that as well as pant-wittingly scary quests, there are puzzles and mysteries aplenty to solve. It certainly makes me panic when I play it! If I had to pidgeon hole this title, I’d definitely say that it was more of a Panic Horror (to be fair that’s what Capcom chose to call it, and I agree with them wholeheartedly). The game was set in 2009, so we can all be safe in the knowledge that it’s not actually going to come true or that Capcom somehow predicted the future. That’s 4 million people that still can’t go into the national history museum without freaking out that one of the dinosaurs are going to eat them alive. Play through quiet, abandoned jungles and laboratories, messing yourself every time a Dino jumps out at you.Ĥ million people bought this game. It might be an unconventional survival horror game, but it’s still an s/h title at its core. It’s basically the game that we all wanted Jurassic Park to be with lots of blood and Turok-esque action. Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete (1998)ĭino Crisis claws its way into the 55th spot on our best PS1 games list. Sunday mornings hanging out with my friends racing on this game – it doesn’t get much better than that! 60. I’ve played this game on pretty much every console I’ve ever had, but the PS1 hits differently with me. The flooded New York level is something truly special to behold, and taking a speedboat around the arctic circle never, ever gets old.
The weird thing is that the boats are all unmanned… which definitely does not seem dangerous in the slightest, right? Racing through water instead of land gives you a course with natural curves and turns that flow perfectly (water pun intended), which allows for much richer backgrounds with amazing depth to them.Īnd because rivers are pretty wide, it doesn’t feel like you’re fighting for space when you go up against your opponents. Honestly, the levels in this game are incredible. Hydro Thunder brings all the thrills and spills of F-Zero to the water with epic speedboats cruising through amazing levels. It’s also one of the most underrated PS1 games of all time! 65.
With 60 stages to work through, there’s plenty for single players or groups to dive into. Just ignore the warning to parents if you’re old enough to buy on eBay then you’re probably old enough to make your own decisions! The American version of this game was censored and didn’t have any swearing and toned down violence, so if you want the real experience, look for the PAL version. Ok, so it’s just a cartoon game which makes it funny, but it’s probably not one for the kids to play. I know from looking at the cover that it looks like it could be a relaxing title to play, but this is one of those titles that can make or break friendships.Īnd it’s pretty damn violent too. a world where people are logging on to play Fall Guys every night, Team Buddies would have felt right at home! Castlevania: Symphony Of The Night (1997)ĭespite the fact that this game came towards the end of the PS1’s life, we still think that it was too much ahead of its time. Star Wars: Rebel Assault II: The Hidden Empire (1996) Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace (1999) Tenchu 2: Birth of the Stealth Assassins (2000) Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue! (1999) Still, no task is too great for us here at Retro Dodo. It was soon to be the home of some of the best games ever made, franchises that are still going strong today.įrom a child-friendly dragon to dragon armoured warriors, there are so many exciting titles on this console that I’ve had a sweat on trying to whittle it down to just 70! The PS1 wasn’t just Sony’s answer to Nintendo’s home console devices. It’s the birthplace of many of today’s most influential video game characters, a groundbreaking console that changed the way we play forever. The PS1 was, and in many ways still is, a pivotal console in the world of gaming. Then I started listing my favourites, and soon I had around 250 titles with more popping into my head every second. 70 of my favourite PlayStation games – easy. When I sat down to write this list of the best PS1 games of all time, I figured it would be a piece of cake.
