Games I played with my friends like Twisted Metal 2, Crash Warped, and Legend of Dragoon. But the PS1 has two of my favorite games of all time, Silent Hill, and Diablo.
>>
>>
>>12095279
Actual /vr/ consensus?

Probably Resident Evil (1).
>>
I haven't played as many games on the system as I'd like, but my answer is probably FF7 or MGS1. I also like Castlevania Chronicles, Crash 1 and 2, RE2, and THPS2.
>>
>>12095279
RE2, Crash 2, or MML2
>>
>>12095492
I still play Spyro 2 every other year for the same reason. Some of the orb challenges are fucking hard, though
>>
>>12095279
Wild Arms or Ape Escape.
There's so much good shit on ps1 it's really hard to not list 10.
>>
>>12095279
i like pulling out Egg at parties
>>
>>12095279
only the ones that are of all time, not just the indefinitely finite period in which they were licensed and published

I hate playing them though. I only enjoy having played them. What are the highest rated PS1 games that also don't take a long time to have played? No playing >:( Only have played :D

NTA, it's probably the most unique of the 5th gen "kart" racers. Really fun to play once you get the hang of it, but it's pretty challenging.

It really isn't. Of course it was heavily inspired by metroid by the dev's own admission but the perspective makes it play completely differently than your average one of those.

As much as it makes me feel like a pleb, I have to say FF7 as well. It's not even my favorite FF, but it's such a comfy adventure with great aesthetics, lovable characters, and brilliant music. Getting to hear that overworld music and see the blue sky the first time you set foot out of Midgar is such a legendary moment.

This game teached me to git gud at videogames when I was only like 6 or 7 years old
It took me a lot of time to find all cages by myself as well (I think one cage in Hard Rocks and one cage in Pencil Pentathlon took me the most time to find)
Nowadays I just do a yearly 100% playthrough that ends in 3-4 hours because the game's not that hard to me so I get to enjoy its graphics, music and gameplay.

My vote goes to Final Fantasy Tactics. A very close runner up is R4: Ridge Racer Type 4. FFT is just so replayable, with strong characters and story elevated by the amazing soundtrack, I revisited the game quite a lot over the years. I hear there's a remake, well deserved too, so new generations can enjoy the game as well. I'm glad the art is preserved.

I did not grow up with a PS1 so now as an adult I've been emulating a bunch of its library and these are the stand outs that I really like:
>Mega Man 8
>OverBlood and OverBlood 2 (both just really funny-bad games)
>Suikoden 1 (I've started 2 and it'll definitely make this list once I've beaten it)
>Vagrant Story
>Klonoa
