@@Matheus_Piter My pleasure
Final fantasy 7 is so overrated. And yes I was there on the original release day to pick my copy up and I still play it today albeit on pc now. MGS is amazing crash bandicoot , gta and gta2 plus gta London 👌 driver 👌 I put stupid hours into pandemonium that was cool jumping flash epic. Medieval with sir Dan fortesque. I was joking about FF7 btw but there are better games just saying.
Chrono Trigger needs to be bumped up the list a bit but otherwise this is the list.
@@mattg768 This isn't my opinion. This is what is on the actual video
Metal gear and resident evil 2 both classics
Missed out the following:
Soul Edge,
Tenchu The Stealth Assassin,
Raystorm,
Raycrisis,
Fatal Fury Wild Ambition,
Parasite Eve 1 & 2,
Philosoma,
Ridge Racer Type 4 (best soundtrack among PS1 games),
Rival Schools,
Armoured Core,
Syphon Filter,
WWF Smackdown 2,
Xenogears,
Zero Divide
Alundra,
Battle Arena Toshiden,
Dance Dance Revolution,
Dino Crisis 1 & 2,
Parasite Eve, Ridge Racer and Xenogears are probably the only 3 from that list that I would have added. The rest aren’t top 20 in my eyes, as good as some of them were at the time.
yess i fkn loved tenchu... we need more games like that
Metal Gear Solid is pure cinema, timeless masterpiece
The Legend of Dragoon
Metal gear Solid, Final fantasy 7 and Castlevania Symphony of the night.
The best of the best from the original Playstation console.
The big 3 were Crash, Tomb Raider and Spyro0/Twisted Metal
Something you guys should know was that the first Gran Turismo was extremely difficult to make. Lead designer Kazanori Yamauchi explained the grueling work conditions he faced, stating, "It took 5 years. In those 5 years, we couldn't see the end. I would wake up at work, go to sleep at work. It was getting cold, so I knew it must be winter. I estimate I was home only 4 days a year"
Ape Escape, Tomb Raider, RE2, Final Fantasy 7, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2, Mega Man X4, and especially Metal Gear Solid are at the top of my personal list.
Agree
Definitely Tomb Raider! Ape Escape was pretty cool as well
Bro I’m so old I remember getting strategy guides with a few of these games
Bro don’t make me feel my age 😂😂 it feels like yday I had a stack of those strategy guides to help me get off a part I was struggling with
@@kdlocgaming7069 that’s a fact 😂😂
FF9, Suikoden, Dino Crisis, Parasite Eve snubbed hard
Tekken 3 and Siphon filter 2 will always hold a special place in my heart so many hours with my brother
Final Fantasy VII, Spyro, Crash, Resident Evil, Silent Hill are the top games from my childhood.
There are a LOT of awesome RPGs on PS1: FFVII - IX, Chrono Cross, port of Chrono Trigger, port of FFIV - VI, FF Tactics, Vagrant Story, Suikoden 1 and 2, Valkyrie Profile, Legend Of Mana, Lunar 1 and 2, Parasite Eve 1 and 2. And I still haven't beaten Xenogears, Brave Fencer Musashi, Legend of Dragoon, Legend Of Legaia, Vandal Hearts, Alundra...
I was surprised Suikoden didn’t make the Top 20. I had so many friends who played that game to death back in the day.
Some of the best games ever made, played and beat them all back in the day. Legaia was a hidden gem and loved the arts system. I wish all these games had an ease of access for new systems. I was so glad to see LoD finally hit the PS store. I really want Lunar to get on newer consoles, i know its on android, i want Lunar 2 as well Jean godmode is awesome.
There was also the Tales of series on the psone with Destiny 1 and 2, plus Eternia. They are made by namco which did tekken and soul calibur, and they play like soul calibur with its control scheme of using the direction pads of modify buttons to get different results in its real time 2d side scroller rpg system.
The original Crash Bandicoot games are my favorite games to play on the PlayStation 1
Crash Bandicoot 3 is top 5 PS1 games of all time imo
@@RenasMayilmao no way they’re good but not that good
@MadPaperMario here comes Mario fan. I don't see why you have a problem with Crash 3 not being top 5
Metal Gear Solid
Final Fantasy VII
Tomb Raider
Crash Warped
Resident Evil 2
Castlevania Symphony of the Night and Silent Hill comes after these 5 to me
🏆🥇
@@RenasMayi oh well nice Pfp I can see how much you like those crash games
Soul Reaver Legacy of Kane is my pick. The whole series needs to be brought back to life.
Yes! I've been begging for a reboot for years.
@@MAO13092 Patience pays off my gaming friend.
Legend of the Dragoons is a highly underrated masterpiece.
It was too long though.
@RiVer-Parish wish it was longer lol it's my #1 favourite game on ps1 back in the day.
I loved that game. They had it on the play station plus and I was thrilled to play it all over again. 😁
no Abes Odyssey that one person played should be on this list.
I thought the story was bland and the combat annoying. Way too long, too.
I still never forget the day I was introduced to the PlayStation. I remembered playing this at my late Uncle Doug’s house in New York when I was 4 years old. It was the first time I’ve been introduced to video games. The game I played was Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped. I never finished it. Now that I’m 27 years older, all I can say it is truly a groundbreaking piece of gaming.
Thank you Uncle Doug for making me a gamer. My gaming life was never the same without you. May you rest in peace.😢
Resident Evil & Twisted Metal are the best!
Agreed 👍 btw did you see my comment about Long Island killer? I comment R.I.P to all the victims and it turned into an argument. They clearly have no respect for the dead.
@@Slayde.Wilson Yeah I saw that. They really need to grow up. Oh and my comment on telling everyone to grow up wasn't directed at you. It was more directed at the people who were/ still arguing.
I love the Spyro trilogy, perphaps this is why it became my favorite videogame franchise so far.
I love the original Spyro trilogy too! Insomniac Games created one of my all-time favorite childhood video game series, and then went on to create 2 other favorite video game franchises of mine, Ratchet & Clank and Marvel's Spider-Man.
@@williamcooper007you should try Resistance. Their first game - Fall of Man, in particular was brilliant in multiplayer. Cool story and lore too.
I used to play Spider-Man 2000 not on ps1 but on my PC when I was a kid. Brings back so much memories.
I enjoyed it and its sequel more than Spider-Man 2 on PS2 for some reason. I remember being blown away by the Mysterio boss because it was the first time I've ever faced a giant boss (in a 3D game, at least)
@Mr.Ditkovich. We even got Ultimate Spider-Man too, also underrated. I love the style of that game.
Pac Man World deserves that 10 spot honestly
That’s a super bold claim. What makes it better than the other platformers on the system? Eg. Crash, Spyro, Ape Escape?
@@mick2287 I meant top 10, mainly a personal preference, but to be fair, it’s mainly a bias, I’m sure those other games are just as good, I just had fond memories of Pac-Man world, even if some of the mechanics haven’t aged the best
Lots of great games, great video! 😀
Was Driver good? I never got past the tutorial. 😂
YESSSSS!!!!!!
Same. Me and my buddy stole a copy of it as kids, and it felt like that was our karma
I don't remember if I finished the game, but I still bought Driver 2 and even 3. I remember when I first played GTA San Andreas, I called it "Driver clone"
My god was that hard! I actually passed it, but I only have memories of the tutorial!
😂😂😂 You sucked as gamer when you were a kid, and then it took patience to beat it.
What is a man? A miserable little pile of secrets. That will never get old. Also great list.
The Legend of Dragoon was a seriously underrated game!
Spyro the Dragon VS Crash Bandicoot!
Street Fighter VS Darkstalkers!
Persona! 3 FES VS 4 Golden VS 5 Royal!
While I like Crash, I do have to admit that Spyro is the more fun franchise for me on the PS1 to play 🙂
🥉
Tomb Raider 1 and 2 might be my faves. They’re almost an evolutionary dead end in terms of genre, basically a 3d spiritual successor to Prince of Persia where every little bit of platforming needs to be meticulously planned out. It actually made 3d platforming feel harrowing and treacherous in a way your modern 3d platformers just don’t.
Wow. This is a surprisingly solid list. Well done
Glad to see Ape Escape on the list. I owned a game store during this era and recommended it to everyone. Definitely think Syphon Filter 2 belongs on this list though.
Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! My favorite Playstation game of all time was "NBA ShootOut '97". This game was awesome when I played it back in 1997.
I had that game it was awesome!
Castlevania Symphony of the Night was my favorite game for PS1!
Definitely one of my favorites I still have on PSOne. I've played it to death but still I'm stuck with 2% left of the map to finish.
Only American m o r o n players like castelvania trashy 2d graphics from snes
Grant Turismo 2 and both Tony Hawk games (and Thrasher: Skate and Destroy with it’s much harder difficulty due to the controls) were my college years!
Never be overstated*
Great video, great list, i loved it
The PS1 had a side scrolling shooter hidden gem developed by Square back in the day. “EINHÄNDER” is criminally underrated. Not to mention its soundtrack was years ahead of its time.
Getting my PlayStation chipped and having the majority of these games was fantastic
I have always loved Spyro since I was a child and still do to to this day. Even though Blasto was made for teens, I remember playing it when I was very young. At times it was frustrating since you can easily die, but I still found Blasto's humor funny, even when he fell off the platform screaming "MOMMY!" and when I heard "Well Hellooo NURSE!" for the first time. I also remember lines that I never understood until I became an adult. Despite the fact that I never completed it, I thought it was a decent space shooting game with a good sense of humor rescuing sexy babes and shooting aliens heads off.
Awesome list,as a former PS1 owner,I play most of these classics all the time and to this day it's still one of my top favorite consoles of all time.
Make a list of the top 20 2D Games on the PS1/PSX.
NOW THAT WOULD BE A HELLUVA LIST MOJO!!!!
It would've been nice to see Tomba! get some love
Never doubt the powers of weapon space
Good list, missing some really good titles, franchises, Dino Crisis, Parasite Eve, Syphon Filter, Rayman, Medal of Honor and more but a good list focused mainly on the big bangers.
My Top 10 PS1 VideoGames of All Time are:
10. Dino Crisis 1 and 2
9. RE3 Nemesis
8. Silent Hill
7. Crash Bandicoot 3 Warped
6. Spyro 2 Ripto’s Rage
5. FF9
4. FF7
3. CastleVania SOTN
2. RE2
1. MGS1
Tekken 3 is just simply Goated. My other favs are games such as Crash 3: Warped, Final Fantasy 7, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2, Smackdown 2 and game series like Twisted Metal, Gex, Bloody Roar, NFL Gameday etc. IDK there's just so many I just enjoy and I wish gaming would be as good again as the glory days in the 90's & early 2000's.
idk man PS4 era was pretty great but PS5 era sucks ass
Maaaaaan, Spyro brings back so many memories of my cousins coming over on the weekends and us haming together at sleepovers. Spyro and Yugioh: Forbidden Memories was the vibe back in those days
I would always say MGS1 was the best game I had ever played in my life until MGS4 came out and I was like, wow. I had tears in my eyes watching the ending. No other game before or after that has ever had that effect on me. Truly a work of art. Thank you Hideo
Just playing through Castlevania: Symphony of The Night and man its impressive for 1997. Sooooooo much content
Yeah nice 2d trash from snes era
Thank you for listing LOK: Soul Reaver. That series doesn't get a lot of attention and I don't know why. The story, lore and setting are fantastic.
SPYRO was UNDERRATED!!! I was the only one of all my friends to actually love it. The first GTA was dope too… had the Birds Eye view. So easy to run over people. U can see everything. I miss it.
Ape Escape was one of my all time Favorite PS1 Games. 🎮🙆🏿♂️
Still have over 750+ physical games for PlayStation1
so jealous...if you have any doubles let me know. I'm looking for skate and destroy, loaded and reloaded and a few others
YugiOh Forbidden Memories: Own ruleset with focus on fusion, a fantastic soundtrack and some off the hardest challenges you'll find. The story is nothing special but it's well presented and you can really see how much love and effort went into this game (f.e. everyone off the 700 cards in the game has a 3D model with it's own sounds, and two different attack animation just to offer you a completely obsolete feature that you can activate at will or completely ignore).
Tomb Raider (played 1, 4 and 5 as a child but revisted the others recently): It really makes you feel like an explorer. there are unforgiving challenges behind every corner but it feels really great to beat. I love the stories, the objectives and lara croft is defenitly one off my favorite video game protaganists.
Legend of dragoon was such an amazing and unknown game, and still to this day, my #1 ps1 game
Wipeout 2097 with the Prodigy "Firestarter" music was epic at the time.
Pretty good list. I'd change only a few games if I could - for example: Tomb Raider for Tomb Raider 2
My favorites are Tomb Raider 2, Resident Evil 1, Spyro the Dragon, Darkstalkers 3, Toy Story 2, Bugs Bunny Lost in Time, Marvel vs Capcom, Crash 2, Rival Schools 2, Dino Crisis 2, Gex 3 Deep Cover Gecko, RE2, RE3, Time Crisis, Xmen Mutant Academy, KOF99, Legacy of Kain, Pocket Fighter, Tomb Raider 1, Tomb Raider 3, Road Rash, Spider Man, Legacy of Kain, Medal of Honor, etc. There are sooo many amazing games on the PS1!!
I had so much fun getting chased by the cops in Spider-Man. "Mary Jane was right, I should've stayed home, today!" 😄
🎮 Love the nostalgic journey, brings back so many memories! 🕹️
Indeed.
I remember it was basically a coin toss if I was gonna make it out the garage tutorial for Driver
what? Where's Xenogears??? WHAT???
Or Final Fantasy Tactics.
ikr? 😑
Tomb Raider, Spiderman 2000 and Ape Escape are masterpieces.
I playing PS1 games on my Chromecast feeling Old school over again 🎒🏫🎒
Couldn’t even get past the tutorial of Driver 😂
Love Oddworld and glad to see it on here. I would've chosen Exoddus though. Improves on Oddysee in every way.
I remember returning Driver as a kid. I couldn't get past the turorial. I was so angry i ws crying. 😅
TOMB RAIDER WAS MY SH*T!!! I was freaking addicted to that game. It was a demo that came with the PlayStation. It took me forever to beat the game but it was so awesome.
The final cave was nuts. It went from rock climbing, shooing away bats and snakes the whole game… to a whole ass T-Rex lmao literally. Came out of nowhere. 😭 you win the game when you kill the dinosaur lol good times.
In my 40s and STILL have dreams about the T-Rex level where she's stuck in that valley with the cave at the end. You know the part.
I’ve played Crash Bandicoot: Warped, Spyro The Dragon, maybe Gran Turismo 2, I’ve played Tekken 3, and maybe Tony Hawk’s Underground Skater 2. I’ve seen my older brother play Metal Gear Solid and Spider-Man.
This will always be my favorite gaming system. i still play my PS1 to this day, i hope many others do too!
Soul Reaver needs to be Remastered, that game was incredible 💯💯
Thats true it is masterpiece
One of my personal favorites was Star Ocean. Lots of weeks trying to unlock all those secrets...
Anywho, how about some games that, at the time, were PC-only but made the jump to the PS1? Like Command & Conquer, C&C: Red Alert, A-Train and X-Com Ufo Defense. Oh yeah, and Warzone 2100.
Track and Field was the game I played most on PS at the time. Resident Evil and Tomb Raider was next Golden eye was one I had but my Uncle loved it so much at night he played it while I just watched. Tony Hawks was great too
Happy the video started with Driver. Took a night of friends and I trying to beat the tutorial but after we did the game was awesome. Was a great spiritual prequel to GTA 3.
wow,, i had a PS1 when I was a kid,, i love these games back then,,
1. Final Fantasy 7, 8 & 9
2. Metal Gear
3. Resident Evil 1, 2 & 3
4. Vandal hearts

90s kid gamers so happy for that 🤔💭 🕰️⬅️🎮🔼⏹️❎⭕️🙂😀😃
2:12 oddworld and dark hearts are the hardest game I played as a kid never even came close on abe oddesye
Spiderman was my favorite game on the ps1 as a child
Banging collection, I’d probably add Coolboarders 2, GTA, Hogs of War, Worms Armageddon, Sentient, Treasures of the deep, Theme Park, Theme Hospital, Duke Nukem 3D, WWF Smackdown 2 to this collection.
Alundra, Armoured Core, Tenchu Stealth Assassins, Soul Blade, Bushido Blade, Wipeout 2097, Harvest Moon Back to Nature, Rugrats Search for Reptar, Medal of Honor & Theme Park World
I used to enjoy Vigilante 8, I’ve never played Twisted Metal 2 personally.
Jet Moto, Star Wars Dark Forces, G Police, Lunar....
@@BrassBrutalWow, some one who played Vigilante 8 too. My older brother and I obsessed over that game, that and Tekken.
Omg thank you I just got back into ps1 after finally getting a ps2 from my uncle last year can’t wait to start collecting ps1 games 😃
I started collecting PS1 and PS2 games recently and there's almost a bottomless pit of good games for both systems. Wayyy more than most other systems.
@@Atrus999 heck ya I love it it’s my favorite
I appreciate the Soul Reaver mention
Alundra is a criminal omission
Yugi Forbidden Memories ,Die Hard, Digimon World 2003 ,Hogs of War ,Sled Storm ,Tekkens ,Crashs ,Darkstalkers ,Unholy War, Break Out many many games they got my youth hours nostalgic good times ahah
A game I played countless hours on ps1 was WWF Smackdown! 2, such a fun game
I was a big fan of Micro Machines V3 not a well known game but I loved playing it
I remember playing crash bandicoot by a friend because her brother had a ps1, I fell in love with the game. After that my parents bought me a ps1 and a small tv. I've been a Sony Pony ever since 😂. I even bought the crash trilogy remake which I'm playing in my ps5 to relive my childhood. Also I loved Syphon Filter 2 &3. I want a remake for ps5!!
I knew MGS would be in top 10, but seeing it at #1 made me happy. Crash Warped, FFVII, and MGS are my top 3
Really no CTR, Crash Bash, bloody roar II, fifa, crush gear, pepsiman, yugioh, harvestmoon BTN?😢
So many good memories ♥
Indeed.
Very solid list! It’s pretty easy to make one with the PS1’s fantastic library. A good amount of these are still among the best games ever, let alone best for the console.
GRAN TURISMO and GT2 are my go-to PS1 games when I feel nostalgic!
Medal of Honor, Dino Crisis, Syphon Filter, WWF SmackDown!, Ace Combat
You got the year for Tekken 3 wrong, the Arcade original was released in 1997, but the PS1 Version was released in 1998.
I was into crash bandicoot, Spyro the dragon, CTR and twisted metal 3, 4 and small brawl. I enjoyed need for speed. The original ones.
The best game ever that came out on PS1 was the first Resident Evil game with the live action cutscenes. Resident Evil 2 second best. Then, the Toombraider 1 and 2.
As a ps1 fan this list doesn’t do the console justice, but it’s what you expect from a top 20 ps1 list for the most part
The PS1 is Still My Favorite Console of All Time
Nobody ever mentions "MediEvil". It's the most fun I've ever had playing a video game.
Thps 2,legacy of kain, Spyro, and crash bandicoot were my faves as a kid and I only played metal gear on a demo but it was one of the best I ever played.
What about Final Fantasy Tactics and 9, Xenogears, Legend of Dragoon. Soul Blade. Time Crisis 2, Jedi Power Battles, Re-Loaded, Cool Boarders 2. I can't even think of all the greats, but those ones listed are crazy to not see on this list.
Any top with Vagrant Story on it is a good top
I'm so glad you guys put MGS1 as the #1 spot. It's my favourite game of all time. And I'm tired of people putting FF7 first.
Great list! I remember Activision dominating that decade. Tenchu Stealth Assassins, Nightmare Creatures & Vigilante 8 all being so much fun!
