I get that same PS1 boot up sound every time I turn on my PS4. It's some sort of PS1 anniversary edition theme I installed a few years ago, not sure if it's still available at PS Store to download anymore.
I do that to this that and not just on racing games. Even platformers like Mario maker or Celeste have me leaning up whenever I need to make a long jump
Which is why the Wii, which came out a couple of generations later, worked so well for and was such a hit with older games, and indeed all the casuals, because that was kinda how much of the stuff actually worked, especially the huuugely popular Wii Sports [Bowling] that basically had people swinging their arms about and moving into poses that was very similar to what they would do in an actual bowling alley.
Fantastic work as always, bringing the memories flooding back! Maybe it had existed earlier, but the the first 'fanboi' wars I remember in gaming were PS vs Saturn. I never understood why you would argue over trivial differences and not just enjoy games back then, but today we have corporation soldiers ready to fight the good fight, so we didn't learn anything and its a silly today as it was then. Really looking forward to part 2, Thank you!!
Game Sack vibes here. John and Audi are an amazing combination for retro episodes. Edit after I saw the end of the episode at 49:19 - I was not expecting that, so nice to see Joe there.
Was one of the first people in the UK to get a PSX, I bought it from HMV in Tottenham Court Road who for some reason were selling Japanese imports, had Ridge Racer and Toshinden as my first games, blew me away at the time.
Ha! Go my PS and PS2 from HMV. My PS2 collection was pure luck, tried my luck on launch day, the manager was like "buy 4 games with it and I'll give you one we have left" spent every penny I had - 3 of the games were dirt but Timesplitters was amazing and made it all worth it.
My parents brought us ours from Macro in Charlton S.E London day after launch day, we got Ridge Racer with it and ofcourse the demo CD which I played so much of lol...
@@saucyx4 yep, had nothing growing up so getting my 1st job the same week i left school and saving to get a ps1, stuff you never forget, it’s also why consoles have a special meaning for me.
One thing that may also be interesting is how each console was modded, its a different subject and there are videos like that already, but they don't have that DF sauce. Great vid!
Day 1 must've been cool. I remember wanting one when it came out but I was like, 12 years old lol. Held out with my Genesis until I got my hands on an N64. I think I ended up getting the PlayStation in 1998.
@@mattyork7625 I was young too, but my mum let me get it from the catalogue at some extortionate rate per month. I paid every month with my paper-round money haha. Good times. Worth it!
Grew up in the SNES megadrive era but I can safely say the greatest console of all time imho is the PSX or PS1, but the Saturn, N64, PS2 were up there too. The amount of creativity coming out of all the studio's was amazing. The leap to 3D really bought out the best of them all, 2D titles also hit their peak creatively. It was the wild west of gaming, no holds barred sky was the limit, the only thing that could hold anyone back was their own imagination. Just a joy and a privilege to experience it first hand and to be a gamer in that era. Almost everything after then and until now has been a derivative or has been influenced in some way from that era.
Yup witnessed and experienced that era, truly revolutionary and exciting. It's hard to explain if you weren't there. And yes I agree with what you said,the wild west of gaming. The original NES was my first console when I was a wee lad.
Every time I watch y'all PlayStation Videos, it takes me back to a simpler time. I'm glad I asked for a PlayStation for my birthday in 95, greatest thing ever till this day and I still love Sony ....
I was 13 when PS launched in Dakar, Senegal , West Africa. Sony Trinitron Tv's were already a standard for quality along with walkmans. But the console launched at a pretty much unaffordable price , but of course one of my friends was lucky enough his dad bought him one , soon many sleepless nights were spent at his home , having our minds blown , Battle Arena Toshinden , Crash Bandicoot , WipEout and its amazing soundtrack were the precursors of a lifetime as a gamer , now 43yrs old with 2 kids and a PS5 on the shelf , I can't help but get emotional watching this. 🥲
I think this is one of the best DF Retros ever. I really hope there will be complementary videos for Xbox, Xbox 360, PS2, PS3. It's fascinating to watch and learn about this stuff that you don't know or appreciate at the time.
This is hands down 1 of, if not THE best documentary video about the ps1 i have seen on youtube. I cannot wait to watch the rest! Thank you so much for such an amazing and well made and put together video. People like you are a credit to this platform and why i love it so much. Also I loved the fact you played sonic r music whilst playing ridge racer. A man of great taste for sure :)
Omg, I love you guys so much! I was genuinely dying of laughter when the Mahjong game section happened, the amazing anime-style mahjong battle (“Where the sunsoft doesn’t shine XD”) and then when you switched to the game and it was just BASIC MAHJONG with no music just birdsong I was laughing so hard. AND THEN THERE’S A 5 WAY COMPARISON I LOVE YOU JON
Loved the original PlayStation, even imported the console from Japan, cost a small fortune but it was worth it. Still have the ultimate collection of PlayStation game's in the attic. Not selling.
@@nate567987 so depressed kojima and the other devs are gone and we will never get a true third game but I guess the end of the second game finished the story .
I remember as a kid going to Blockbuster and renting the Playstation a few times before my parents got me one. I remember not having a memory card and playing Resident Evil I finally made it all the way to the Tyrent one time and died, it was the first time I screamed at my TV.
Absolutely amazing level of detail and care in this video (as always). Also, the Mahjong bit is probably the funniest thing I've ever seen in a DF Retro. I legitimately laughed out loud until my stomach started to hurt. Well played y'all.
The lack of Z-buffer and affine texture mapping are different problems. To fix the texture warping, you need to perform an operation commonly known as perspective correction on PC, where you perform a division on the texture coordinates with the perspective to get the texture to correctly scale. sony skipped on it because a fast division circuit would probably take too much space in the texture rasterizer chip. What the lack of Z-Buffer cause is stopping you from having triangles that intersect, so they're either behind or on top, causing triangles to "jump" as you're doing things such as rotations. it's quite jarring.
@@jc_dogen It is a depth value, but the W one. The math that converts from 3D to 2D spits Z and W besides X and Y. both are "depth values" but the W is both used to create the perspective effect and fix the texture mapping.
12:03 underrated game, ESPN Extreme Games, wish they would make a new one. Funny like Road Rash but with more variety of vehicles. Tho it could've done with more levels and a longer season mode.
100%. I got to rent a Playstation and that game (and Toshinden) for the weekend for my birthday that year. Played the crap out of it. That was a great birthday party.
@@technozombie789 Courier Crisis, yeah I remember that Im having fun with it on PS1 Cafe before I bought Playstation for myself (back in 1998 PS1 cafe or PS1 Rental Center is blown up in my country that even create a new problem where children, mostly junior high, always coming home late just to play PS1 on PS1 cafe after school)
Remember the promised, super hyped "M2 Accelerator" upgrade by Panasonic for the 3DO? It was back in 1995. They even released a demo of Bladeforce, a game which showed the M2's graphical capabilities. They said it was capable of moving 1 million polygons per second. But then, all of a sudden, the upgrade was cancelled and the 3DO condemned to death. I wonder what really happened there.
I had my keen eye on the M2 development. I owned a 3DO. Along with Bladeforce. I remember when the magazine Next Generation had a cover regarding the calabilities of the M2. I was 13 in 1995. Such a thrilling time for an obsessive gamer like myself. That passion hasn’t changed and I’m 39 now.
@@wizardsandwarriorz I fondly remember the next gen console hype of 1995. So many new consoles, so many new games!!!! Back then I would buy Gamepro magazines and drooled over all those E3 1995 articles with tons of upcoming games. Some of them looked to good to be true, like Gotha for Saturn, the uncanny first images of Robotech for Ultra 64 or Razorwing for Playstation (What happened to the developer, N-Space?). But what really caught my interest was the M2 upgrade. Imagine Playstation, N64 and Saturn competing against a 1 million polygon per second behemoth with good third party support. The story would have been completely different!! In the next DF episode, I hope John mentions really obscure games like Team 47 GoMan and Razorwing. The first was supposed to be a launch game, but apparently was never released and the developers went into oblivion.
I used to have the small ps1. Games were very expensive and you couldn’t even find them in my part of Eastern Europe, we relied on piracy and booting cds to play these games. The same went wit ps2. The first console to have actual support in these parts was the ps3, and with ps4 they even gave us a ps store in our currency. Microsoft and xbox still pretend like we don’t exist, even if it’s a pretty big market now.
The production value of these Retro videos and the full documentary style and length makes them one of the most appealing slices of content on the platform. Thank you guys for all of this!!
I was at E3 95 as a vendor and I attended the Sony $299 conference, I still remember how our jaws dropped and all we could say was "oh no Sega" There are also lots of dirty deeds on Sony's part that nobody knows about. Sony pretty much extorted major retailers into either not carrying Sega products, or placing them in parts of the store with less traffic. They spent tens of millions of dollars on this effort, among other nefarious business practices. It would make an excellent video at some point in the future on how Sony bludgeoned Sega to death with their Yakuza type business strategy.

PS1 to this day the greatest console boot up sequence ever IMO 💯
The Gamecube says hello!
But yeah, the sound is pretty great. Just not much there visually like for Gamecube.
It woke up everybody in the house each time you changed games
Sony should consider giving the option to choose boot sequence animation between the PS legacy in PS4/PS5..
To the top you go
I get that same PS1 boot up sound every time I turn on my PS4. It's some sort of PS1 anniversary edition theme I installed a few years ago, not sure if it's still available at PS Store to download anymore.
My grandma used to try playing Ridge Racer with us and would throw her entire body left and right when trying to turn corners
With such photorealistic visuals the immersion must've been intense for her!
I still do that, haha. You know a games good when you're throwing yourself around the place.

Tekken 6 Electric Fountain song hit my soul at the Ridge Racer part!

Same here, it was mindblowing
