i remember seeing the playstaion at toys r us isle when i was a teen trying to buy xmas present for my baby sister. to be honest, the controller had me intimidated because of the shape and the choice of button labels. if it wasnt for that day, i wouldnt have seen the trade in deal for sega games and console for a new psx. to this day i still have my original psx and still working! my trust in sony quality was ans still is well founded and i have never doubted its manufacturing quality.
I always thought sony got the marketing spot on with PS1 in way they haven't managed with the PS2 and 3. There was no pissing around with creepy plastic babies, alien girls or a bunch of people with major facial tics. Just a chilled out tune in the background and a load clips of some amazing games.
I have too many consoles now. I'm too busy with working to learn to make video games and learning things I should have learned instead of reading books.
1997 was the best year of my life, and it was the year that I was introduced to the Playstation console. In my opinion the Playstation is the best console of all time. It had a massive selection of awesome and memorable games. I love Tomb Raider, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Final Fantasy VII, Syphon Filter, Dino Crisis, Guilty Gear and so many other titles. The Playstation is a masterpiece, and the hard work and effort put into the Playstation, and it's games is apparent.
@suddnstar i feel u on that one i was expose to playstation at the age of 9 and it was great my eyes had a such a orgaism like u would never belive and now iam 22 and still playing to this day and yes iam marrie to sony playstation and two kids psp and psp go and luv them much thx fot the great post
@MrJKILLA7 Thanks for saying so. The Playstation is what got me into gaming it had a huge impact on me. Alot of my videos are dedicated to the greatest console of all time, the Playstation.
My first console was the Atary (dont remember number, but it had a typewriter keyboard thing) I got it at a yard sale for $15 with 30 games, but the first game I ever played was Super Mario Bros. that is when I knew I was a gamer 4 life, then I got the Genesis, then Playstation blew my mind and first console purchased by me, then the masterpiece that is the PS2 my favorite of all, and now with the PS3 with gameboy's and PSP in between, what a ride...
i noticed that this video has pre rendered graphics. but what about the REAL graphics that this system can offer? now crash banidcoot had nice graphics, but in my opinon, all i see for a lot of these games are blocky 3D graphics.
I'm not as old as others to have lived through watching this video, but this was the first ever console i ever bought in my life, i still have it today and i cherish it because all of the games i had played on it started my inner love for gaming, if it wasn't for the PS1, i would not be a gamer.
Man alive, ive been waiting for someone to upload this video for years. Knew it would happed some time. I had (have) the original vhs from gamesmaster magazine but sadly no VHS machine to watch it. Any chance of uploading the others parts of the video (N64, UBISoft etc)?
Prince: There was a VHS tht came with the Gamemaster mag once and it had this on it. I loved it. And still have it actually i might upload the whole thing so you can see it.
I remember this on the free gamesmaster video i got way back in 97 - 98 Quality!

Final fantasy 7 is one of the best man made games in history. The man landing on the moon is nothing compared to this.
Without Final Fantasy 7 a blackhole would be in the playstation libary of games
