Started playing PS1 games recently and have been pleasantly surprised with some of the games I've never heard about before.
I've always been a big Saturn/N64 fan so it's nice to see PS1 has some good stuff too.
What are your must play PS1 games?

I'm mostly interested in exclusives, hidden gems, and/or games that are best on the PS1.
Games I've tried so far:
> Vanark
> Rollcage Stage II
> Jersey Devil
> Spyro 1
> NASCAR Rumble
> Gundam Battle 2
> Kingsley's Adventure

just play the nintendo essentials from gen 5 then go right to the PS2.

ps1 (deadname: psx) aged dogshit unless you like crappy moviegame jarpig slop with 2 minute loading screens every 5 seconds
>>
>>12686740
it has been surprising, i played it a few times back in the day but it was always the same few basic games.
now i'm finding there were quite a few cool games that people never talk about.

I'm just posting old collages - not neccesarily all these games are any good. There's been a million "PS1 hidden gems!" threads for like 12 years.

The 20 best PlayStation game (imo)
>>
>>12686737
Omegaboost
Worlds scariest police chases
Is internal section
Mega man x4
Gex 3
Panzer Bandit

Assuming you've played the big titles like crash and spyro that or they're already locked in.

I've been thinking about checking out Grandia but I heard the PS1 version had shitty voice acting and the Saturn version was better and could be beat with the undub patch. Can anyone confirm or deny this?
>>
>>12686818
Yes, PSX version sucks. It's not just the voice acting, graphical downgrade, longer loading times, lag. Just play the fan translated Saturn version.

Great game btw
>>
>>12686737
Bushido Blade 2.
>>
>>12686821
>PSX version sucks

Nah
>>
>>12686818
It’s a painfully boring and forgettable JRPG no which version you play, so it really doesn’t matter.
>>
>>12686837
Nah
>>
>>12686737
I've been replaying the Bloody Roar games recently. The first two are console exclusive to the original Playstation. The Saturn was my primary console of the time, but there are a lot of very good games on the system worth exploring.
>>
>>12686737
Ace Combat 3 (JP ver. w patch)
Aconcagua
Chase the Express (Jumping Flash devs made their own MGS, p much)
Dino Crisis 2
Echo Night 1 and 2
Germs: Nerawareta Machi (open world investigation kino)
Kowloon's Gate
Mizzurna Falls (Chilling Cut patch that slows down the game's internal clock by x4 to fix the pacing)
Racing Lagoon (it's got a super annoying encounter rate as was the norm but the vibes are insane)
Wonder Trek

If you liked Megaman Legends and Tron Bonne, you can get Rockman Dash 2: Episode 1: 'Roll-chan Kiki Ippatsu!' no Maki patched in English. It's a bonus disc that came with Tron Bonne.

These are just comps because I don't want to type out 35 different games.

Due to the nature of them, they just collages of games. Many aren't even any good.

Sheep Raider is a nother 3D Warner Bros game that has its fans. Try that.
>>
>>12686837
>painfully boring

it's like having some kind of fevear dream about what the game could have been

I had vague childhood memories of this game only to play it decades later nothing I could remmebr actually happened in game

>think fenna'a sister actually join's the party halfway as a full fledged party member woops sorry she doesn't!

>the entire segment after the ghost ship

Go check out Power Shovel if you want a fun hidden gem. It's not the kind of game that makes you glued to the screen for several days, but it's extremely fun to jump into every now and then when you feel like killing some time with some minigames.
