Did Sony do that or did companies like Capcom, Konami, Electronic Arts, Square, etc. do that? I don't know about you but when I had my PS1, Sony was nowhere near the ones delivering the best experience. Sony provided good hardware for devs to make whatever they wanted but that was it. Gran Turismo for PS1, may be the sole exception. Crash, maybe? Think back to the PS1 games that people remember. The games that "made gaming cool". Did Sony really create them? From where I sit, it was mostly developers fleeing Nintendo and their expensive cartridges and shady business practices that made the PS1 shine.
You can argue with games like Ico or God of War but were those games really that popular or have that much impact on anything?
