Best looking ps1 game ever

Wipeout has some incredible Star Wars inspired futuristic vehicles and is the second instalment of the series. This futuristic racer is faster and more dangerous than the original game. The damage bar was introduced for the first time in this game. The graphics on this game are superb and the courses are well thought out and incredibly imaginative.

The music really got you pumped up and added to the whole feel too. One of the only reasons that I used to agree to go bowling as a kid was so I could play Time Crisis in the arcade afterwards. This game was the coolest, and when a port came out for the Playstation, I could finally give up bowling altogether. Standing behind the sofa with the GunCon Light Gun was amazing.

It felt like I was really in the action, except for the fact that I was in a house and not a cavern filled with gun-toting enemies. The duck and reload element of Time Crisis is what made the Arcade game so exciting. That and the mega bosses you had to face up against too.

The PS1 port is amazing and great fun to play with a friend. As the player, you make your way through various stages kicking bad-guy ass. There are various objects to hide behind while you reload, and you have to tactically pick off the enemies one by one to move to the next stage.

The arcade-style time limit is what keeps this game addictive and your nerves on edge. Time Crisis will never win an award for the best storyline in a game, but it is one of my favourite titles and a nostalgic one at that. This next title in our list of the best PS1 games is one that many of you will remember.

Big-eared wonder-kid Klonoa and his pal Huepaw are the stars of the show in side-scrolling platform game Klonoa: Door to Phantomile. Does that make it 2. The whole game kind of reminds me of Goeman: Mystical Ninja. Maybe he and Klonoa could team up for a sequel! A lot of retro games tend to revolve around a dream world, but this game does it superbly without rehashing old ideas.

There are bosses to fight at the end of some stages, and the grunts throughout the game provide just the right level of difficulty. You can pick up and throw enemies as weapons or turn them into springboards to reach new areas. Still, once you get a hang of it, Door To Phantomile is a cracking game. Fans of Crash and Mario? Give this a go!

If you need introducing to the Mega Man Legends , then you must have been living under a rock for most of your life! Mega Man seems to flit between consoles more than I have hot dinners, making him a well-known gaming icon no matter where your gaming allegiances lie.

Legends was later ported to the N64 as Mega Man 64 catchy title. The PS1 title went on to spawn two sequels. Mega Man Legends 2 looks better visually, but I prefer to play the game that kickstarted his PlayStation career. The game is set in the year 80XX, whenever the hell that is.

Humans have been replaced by fast-breeding cyborg imitations, and most of the planet is underwater. Mega Man has to deal with a host of antagonists during the course of the game. Pit your skils against the meddlesome Reaverbots, the fourty-one Servbots, and the Bonne pirate family. The characters are a motley crew, but they helped to make the game an instant hit amongst fans of the blue boy-wonder.

Did you know that Spielberg first created these games. This was his first game in the series, the series that has gone on to span multiple platforms and different time frames over the years. Patterson battling Nazis and saving rural France from German control. As you might expect, all of the weapons are guns from the WWII era. Listen, this is a bona fide classic without a shadow of a doubt. Squaresoft have made some of my favourite ever titles for the PS1. FF IX is based on a war in the made-up realm of Gaia, which is the Greek primordial deity of the Earth for any history buffs out there.

The story is far too complex for me to fit into these short paragraphs, as is the case with every FF game. You play as bandit Zidane Tribal awesome name , as well as controlling a number of other characters that you pick up throughout the game. FF IX has a new item reveal system, a little like the noise that appears in Links Awakening to tell you that there are hidden secrets nearby.

The game has a top-down perspective for most of the exploration, with close up 3D battle scenes that boast some cool looking monsters and enemies. The next title on our list of the best PS1 games is Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver , an underworld themed action-adventure game of epic proportions.

Set years after Blood Omen, the first game in the series, Soul Reaver brings Dark Souls style fun with some demonic characters and blood-thirsty battles. He used to be mates with Kain until the great Vampire Lord bumped him off.

This game was a classic and gave a nice twist to the kind of gothic gameplay you find in the Castlevania series but in a 3D world. Soul Reaver was, however, a little repetitive. Give it a shot and let us know your thoughts! I always thought that the makers of Wario Ware: Smooth Moves might have taken inspiration from this game. The bright visuals and quirky theme are super addictive.

Get a good score and progress to the next round. The whole game revolves around PaRappa having to rap against teachers to reach the front of the line for the bathroom. Then you go on to compete in a rap battle to profess your love to a female pooch named Sunny. Street Fighter Alpha 3 takes the 18th spot in our list of the best PS1 games of all time!

Everyone knows about Street Fighter. There have been so many different games on multiple consoles, and the series is so popular that it can even be recognised by its individual characters. The Alpha series is a sub-series following Street Fighter 2 and one of the best PS1 fighting games to date.

The game largely follows the same mechanics but has a couple of differences. The graphics look a little more cartoony albeit more put together, and the game has some new characters added to the roster.

Alpha 3 brought back Street Fighter favourites such as Ryu, E. Honda, and Blanka. It also featured new characters such as the Zangief-obsessed R. Mika, who would go on to become a firm fixture in future games. Alpha 3 also brought in a new feature that allowed gamers to change fighting styles. Street Fighter Alpha 3 is great for multiplayer madness with your friends.

I love the plot in Chrono Cross because it deals with parallel worlds in a very clever way. You play as a boy named Serge who died in an alternate reality. You and your companions must try to avoid that other world and work out the truth of how the realities are intertwined. As with other RPGs, conversing and exploring are the keys to success.

The turn-based combat works well, and the different abilities that the characters possess complement each other nicely. The characters backstories all help to draw you into their world and the levels are all richly textured.

Driver is the first thrilling car game that I can remember playing. It was so different to everything that had come before it and encapsulated every element of the car chases in my favourite movies. Driver follows an undercover cop named John Tanner who infiltrates a notorious gang. What starts off as a means of finding out about the shady stuff they get up to soon turns into the discovery of their intent to assassinate the President.

Unlike Crazy Taxi where the cities are loosely based on real places, Driver is based around four real-life cities. As a cop and former racing driver, you make yourself useful as a getaway driver for the various mob activities, proving your skills and trying to stay one step ahead of the game. I love a good hidden Easter egg! Driver is renowned the world over as being one of the best PS1 games ever made. Fast cars and undercover police work is what every citizen dreams of being involved with.

Driver makes those dreams come true! Your mission; to track and battle the members of the Reich across the globe, putting your life on the line everywhere from Paris to the Northern reaches of Africa. This FPS is incredibly famous. I remember the first time I hd to go up against a tank in MOH: Underground and resisted the temptation to run the other way as fast as possible. Aquire predetermined collectibles, and destroy enemy targets.

And when the game finishes, the real fun begins. The bonus level that becomes available after completing the main story see players going up against dogs with guns, zombies, nutcrackers, robots, and mythical knights.

Arguably the gnarliest woman in gaming, Lara Croft has gone on to commercial success in both gaming and Hollywood. Tomb Raider II was a huge success. It sold over 8-million copies in total as of and helped to prove that women are far more than side or supporting characters.

New weapons, moves, and vehicles are available to enhance the gameplay, and you can save your progress pretty much anywhere you like without having to find one of those annoying crystals from the first game. In this adventure, Lara is on the hunt for a dagger that, when plunged into the heart of its owner, can turn them into a dragon!

Lara will always be one of the coolest gaming characters of all time, and Tomb Raider II is a must have for any PS1 collectors gaming arsenal. Speaking of dragons, the next title in our list of the best PS1 games of all time is rife with them! The original soundtrack for this game was astounding. The monsters were incredible, and the character abilities were super cool. But in Dragoon mode, the characters can develop armour and wings, giving them extra powerful attacks and improved defence capabilities.

How cool is that! Play begins following a character named Dart. Collectibles, interaction, and exploration are the keys to completing Legend of the Dragoon.

Now, Resident Evil 2 is a game that will forever make people feel freaked out when alone in dark rooms. This survival horror title was certainly not for the faint of heart. Although it looks pretty tame now, it was creepy beyond belief when it first came out! Resident Evil 2 is set just two months after the events of the first R. E game. You have to escape the fictional Racoon City and avoid being eaten alive by zombies, using your wits to stay alive and big-ass weapons to destroy hordes of undead.

The game mechanics are pretty similar to the first title, though now you have to cope with solving puzzles as well as pumping zombies full of lead. There are so many sequels out on different consoles now, but Number 2 will always be one of my favourites. Crash Team Racing is one of the only titles to come close to knocking Mario Kart off the family-friendly racing top spot. The players are all racing against the tyrannical Nitrous Oxide in a bid to save their planet from being blown to smithereens.

The game mechanics are very similar to Mario Kart, with weapons to stop other opponents appearing in crates and apples to collect instead of coins. Players can drift, boost, and in some cases soar over massive ramps as they drive around the various courses. There are tracks in total, and more unlockable content can be discovered as you progress through the game. All you need to do now is decide which is a cooler invincibility shield — the Mario star, or the Aku Aku mask.

The next title in our list of the best PS1 games is one that went on to span across 8 glorious years. Syphon Filter is secret-agent spy action at its finest. It has a compelling storyline and more than deserves a place in our best PS1 games compendium.

This title is even developed by a company called Oddworld Inhabitants. Abe revolts when he realises he and his fellow Mudokons are going to be executed and probably tinned with the rest of the meat. And it probably goes without saying that it's amazing to look at. Though the actual movie based on this game hasn't been too well-received, the game itself is one of the most charming we've ever played.

Dave Smith, deputy editor here at Tech Insider, called "Uncharted 4" " one of the most beautiful games [he's] ever played ," and he's not wrong. It's essentially like playing through an "Indiana Jones" movie. The "Uncharted" series has long been a flagship franchise on PlayStation systems, and Naughty Dog has always been synonymous with cutting-edge quality.

Superlatives and hyperbole get thrown around a lot, but "Journey" is simply one of the most beautiful games ever made. You play an entirely silent protagonist, exploring a vast desert, and interacting with the various creatures and structures you come across.

Like "Flower," which was also made by thatgamecompany, describing " Journey " will only do a disservice to the experience of playing it for yourself.

But there's no doubt that "Journey" is the most beautiful PlayStation game ever. For you. World globe An icon of the world globe, indicating different international options.
