Truly great games never fully lose what made them great. Time may age the graphics and controls to some degree, but if you’re the sort of person who can appreciate a classic in the context of its era, the PS1 is still an awesome place to spend your free time.

    PS1 RPGs have aged gracefully
  • @elr492
    Final Fantasy Tactics. Modern strategy RPG basically look the same and play with the same principles. Their stories are as mature as FFT's was. So basically, developers are basically making the same game 27 years later.
  • @Honethite
    Oddworld Abe's Oddyssey/Exoddus and Heart of Darkness still look amazing today.
  • @MrTomemac
    So many are great, FF Tactics, Valkyrie Profile, Darkstalkers 3, Street Fighter Alpha 3, Vagrant Story, Xenogears, Elemental Gearbolt, and so many others.
  • @truehare
    The two first (and IMO, best) Legacy of Kain games, Blood Omen and Soul Reaver, are still fantastic to this day. In fact, Blood Omen was recently (finally) released on GOG, and I bought it day one and played it through one more time. And it was every bit as awesome as it was 25+ years ago.
  • @haggisman0812
    Alundra for me, gorgeous pixel art which still looks amazing today.
  • @lonewolf8304
    Castlevania sotn is a work of art and is a masterpiece. You can use randomizers and make the game more enjoyable . The game has a lot of replay value
  • @RJ-cq8dd
    Both Oddworld games will always be beautiful and enjoyable
  • @stashmerkin9576
    I'll admit the graphics were chunky but the Bushido Blade games are still fun to play!
  • @fabolous2006
    Nobody could disagree with Suikoden 2, man that game is glorious.
  • @otisthe1410
    Ace Combats and Twisted Metals aged well imo. They look good and are smooth for the time, and genre remains relatively unchanged.. Also want to add Silent Bomber, V-8, Intelligent Qube, Tony Hawk, Incredible Crisis, Medievil, Pacman World, NFS3, Spyros, Ape Escape all aged damn well too.
  • @Retcon404
    All the footage of Digimon World right at the start is unlocking so many memories.
  • @citizeninfantry
    Played Parasite Eve a few months ago and was completely addicted. Amazing game.
  • @ChibiKami
    Legend of Mana and SaGa Frontier 2 are both absolutely gorgeous even today
  • @qaz3000
    Resident evil 3 aged really well!
  • @brichan1851
    Final Fantasy IX has aged beautifully. To this day, it holds up better than the other two (VII, and VIII), though they are fine games. Street Fighter Alpha 3 is still an excellent port of the arcade original. While we can get arcade perfect versions, now, the PS1 version is still very well done. Final Fantasy Tactics is still the yardstick by which all other strategy RPGs are measured. We desperately need a remaster, or at least a port, of this brilliant game. Klonoa is every bit the equal of Tomba, in terms of exciting 2D style platforming. It is utterly charming, quite colorful, and an absolute blast to play. Lunar Silver Star Story Complete and Lunar 2 Eternal Blue Complete (boy, that’s certainly a mouthful) are two amazing RPGs that time seems to have forgotten. The 2D art is quite lovely, while the story and music tell two gripping tales of adventure. The anime cutscene’s are still beautiful and everything in these games gives the player a true sense of reward upon completion. Valkyrie Profile . This was a very unique game that touched on Nordic mythology at a time when few games bothered with the subject. The graphics were outstanding, as were the game play and battles. This is one for the ages. These are a few that deserve to be on a list like yours. Thank you for your lovely trip down memory lane.

    Grand Turismo 2 is worth mentioning too due to the graphics
