Reposted on: 2.8.10 2134.04 | MY TOP 5 PSone games ARE...
1.)Final Fanasty Tactics(Final Fantasy series best offering, I think so. The job system won me over in the end)
2.)Castlevania: SOTN(best Castlevania in the series, of course)
3.)WWF SmackDown! 1 and 2(TIE)(Why?! Cause both are great, and almost identical wrestling games)
4.)Resident Evil 2(always will probably be my favortite one in the series)
5.)Chrono Cross(An excellent and prefect follow-up to Chrono Trigger on the SNES)
TOP 5 HONORABLE MENTIONS:
1.)Final Fantasy IX(My other favorite FF games, a great RPG)
2.)GTA: Director's Cut and GTA 2(same reason as the Smackdown! series, two very similar great games.)
3.)Gran Turismo 2(the only racing or car simulation game I actually enjoyed.)
4.)Metal Gear Solid:(A great stealth game, set the standard in that genre)
5.) WCW VS The World(Yes a great game and WCW's best offering on PSone. It's engine paved the way for THQ's wrestling games on the N64.)

Reposted on: 11.8.10 0059.01 | I hope I can be forgiven for not having a Final Fantasy on my list.
1. Arc the Lad (1, 2, 3)
Since these were all released at the same time in the US in the same package, I'll put them all in one entry. The closest thing to Shining Force I've found in the US, and not as overly complex or elitist-spawning as Final Fantasy Tactics.
2. Gungage
I can't explain why I like this game so much. The graphics are awful, and the controls are just a little bit stiff. Still, the fact that the 4 characters play as differently as they do, and the fact that it's the best 3rd person action shooter on the system make it one of my favorites.
3. Silent Bomber
A fast paced action game that felt like a cross between Smash TV, Bomberman (but not as slow), and some vertical shooter I can't quite put my finger on. The voice acting in the US version is amusingly awful, and the story isn't great (but in a game that's not an RPG, I don't place a premium on things like that), but it is incredibly fun and addictive, with a flexible system to allow you to be offensive or defensive minded depending on your preference.
4. ThunderForce V
Though the Saturn version was better, the PSX version does just fine in my opinion, with classic horizontal shooter gameplay interspersed with updated graphics. I don't like how Victor Ireland likes to screw with the difficulty settings when he translates a game for an American audience, but even that isn't enough to ruin a game that I believe has the best music ever for any PSX game (Valkyrie Profile is a close second)
5. Bloody Roar
I fully expect to be strung up by my toes and fed to HHH for this one. It's a Fighting Vipers clone with a hefty gimmick thrown on top of it, but I was entirely too taken in by the gimmick, and at the time it came out, it was a good alternative to the Tekken series.

Reposted on: 11.8.10 2133.36 | I have to go with Final Fantasy 7 as my favorite.. It was the first game that wrapped me up in it's story so much that I just HAD to beat it. There is so much stuff to do that it never truely gets old. I still pop it in every once in a while to breed some Chocobos and play some games at the Golden Saucer.
I also love Fifa 97 and still play it religiously for some odd reason.
Power Move Pro Wrestling was the coolest way back in 1995. Anyone else still play that game? | | ALL ORIGINAL POSTS IN THIS THREAD ARE NOW AVAILABLE |
