  • While Sega and Nintendo both were still leading the way, they unexpectedly had to step down as the new console on the block could take it’s place at the number 1 spot. Since Sony released their new console, they took the gaming world by storm and today I thought it would be fun to look back on everything we could ever want to know about this amazing system. From secret features to japanese exclusives, here are 50 facts about the Playstation.

    PS1 was pinnacle gaming. A huge variety of games (including timeless classics), no DLC or patches, no micro transactions, and tons of replay value. I miss the 90s.

      ​​@@steelbear2063ah there is better games on PS1 that even change yhe gaming scene in many ways. sorry but gaming this days is about live service shit like wow, lol anything online, microtransactions for progress, dlcs or lootboxes, you need internet to play games and the emphasis too much on esports makes the games boring and shit

      For me the pinnacle was PS2, as it was basically PS1 but on steroids (better graphics and better games). After that everything went downhill.

      ​@@steelbear2063 this is only good for multiplayer games but during that era most of the games are single player and most of the games that was released on PS1 are totally fix with mild bugs. They are also releasing complete games before with manuals and inserts.
      And the best thing about the PS1 and PS2 era is there's no need for you to install/download games.
      Right now if you buy a game you need to wait for how many hours and wait for it to finish.

I wasn't exposed to Resident Evil until the Directors Cut (The good one) at the age of 14.
