Sony came out of nowhere into the video game business and immediately starting wrecking ? . The first video game system to sell 100 million consoles, and the first to begin master 3D gaming. Plus, being able to play your own CDs was crazy.

Drop your favorite PSone games and memories.

    Even tho I had NBA Live but I remember playing NBA In The Zone on Playstation. I use to thought that In The Zone was better than Live. Also, NBA shootout had the dunk contest on their game while Live had the 3 point shootout

    I remember playing Twisted Metal & you had to fight Dark tooth. That nicca was big as hell on the game, you could see that nicca from a mile away & hear him close when the laughing clown got louder & louder

    I got mines a 1yr & half after release as a b-day present.

    I remember my first few games being:

    Madden 2001
    In Your House
    WWF Attitude & War Zone (which sucked)
    Resident Evil Director's Cut
    Live 2000
    MK Trilogy
    Parasite Eve (which I hated)

    PS1 had a dope game library the graphics aren't as good now but considered groundbreaking for what was done at the time. PS2 just expanded on PS1's popularity & library and took the game over.

    still have mine.

    i remember when it came out i thought it wasnt gonna last since up to that point it was always Sega vs Nintendo with Atari or another at a far 3rd.

    I myself was a N64 kid but PS library was crazy long good times

    I remember when NBA Live 98 came out. When I seen them graphics I thought it was on some Xbox One shxt.

    I forgot the name of this game but it was a PlayStation game that came out around 96' that one of my neighbors had. It was like stealth game. All I remember is that you had to get this antibiotic before you walk in this room, if you don't take the antibiotic beforehand then you'll get effected by the bacteria. Imma try to find the name of the game on Google but that game was fun as hell

    Who had theirs "chipped"? Or had one of them "hackers" plugged in the back to allow you to play bootleg games?
