I am curious to know what great 1st party games Sony made during the PS1 era that iv missed out on? I own a PS1 and i can tell you, aside from Crash 1,2,3, and GT1, everything else was 3rd party devs. I am happy to have you list me more.

Back on topis, PC gaming has grown so much, its almost to the point where Consoles are trying to follow PC instead of PC trying to follow Consoles. Alot of gamers underestimate how big the community is. Dota, LoL, WoW alone have just as many gamers playing those 3 games then the entire 8th console sales combine (or close to) I think more gamers need to make the switch fast because upgraded yearly hardware is going to be the thread with future generations. More games, more options, more players, and more power. Thats the way i look at it.

Crash 1-2-3-Racing

Gran Turismo 1-2

MotorToon Grand Prix

Syphon Filter 3

Jumping Flash! 1-2

Twisted Metal 1-2

Rally Cross 1-2

Ape Escape

Legend of Dragoon

MediEvil 1-2

Legend of Legaia

Porsche Challenge

MLB series


The list goes on. But I'm on my cell right now and can't be arsed for more. Wikipedia is your friend. 

You just listed 1st party games, im talking about great 1st party games. eg: Syphon Filter 3? lol ok, Twisted Metal? right..

Ape Escape was a great game and Medievil wasnt, however i enjoyed my time with it, i enjoyed the creative art style behind it.  

I am not even going to try to compare those games to the N64 1st party lineup. Its not even a competition.

It IS great time to be a PC gamer, but not because of PC games. It's console games ported to PC, that run at higher resolution and frame rates, that make it great.

Honestly, I miss the good old days. I felt like in the early to mid 90s they were still making AAA PC games. Now they only develop major titles for consoles, it seems, which is fine. It just makes me less inclined to upgrade my PC. Obviously 4K is better but, thanks to the common practice of upscaling, 1080 is still perfectly acceptable.

I'm honestly enjoying the games on PC like XCOM 2, and for years I;ve njoyed TF2, Planetside 2, Starbound, How to Survive 1-2, Project Zomboid, Stardew Valley, Starcraft II, Diablo III, Heroes of the Storm and a load more that aren't direct console ports and aren't all about realistic visuals. I don't think it's made great only because of console ports (it's like saying PC is only great thanks to consoles which isn't really what the thread is about).

I'm not sure what kind of AAA games you are talking about because so far I'm still seeing those happening on PC, just not the same way you think they are.

That's the reply you would have given no matter what games had been on that list. Great is subjective, and for you, barely a thing from Sony is great. 

In other news, the sky is blue.

Good. So, let's not continue to go back and fourth over it. It's a thread about PC gaming, not how good one thinks PS1's 1st Party output was. 

Reported for off topic, you're in for it now, CGI!

Well thats your assumption, i own all PS consoles and i even have most of those games you listed and i can tell you right now, if you think those games are N64 qulity then i have not much to say but maybe its you that refuses to accept whats really good and what isnt.

I respect CGI and i dont want to lead this thread into an off topic decussion.

Never assume what one other thinks. I voice my opinions, i dont say things just for the sake of it, like many on here seem to do.

I don't need anyone to tell me if something is good or not (especially someone like you), and unlike many here, I don't base my opinion on the reputation of a franchise or developer.



PC is becoming more and more interesting, I've started looking into building my first PC since -07, even though I'm a complete noob when it comes knowledge around graphics cards, motherboards and so on :).
