Gran Turismo. It was my dad who purchased it. He got a wheel with it and bought it in our local supermarket in their tiny gaming section. Good times.



Gran Turismo, Crash bandicoot, Tekken



Went to the game store with my mom to buy a N64 but the guy working there convinced me to buy a PS, never regretted that decision and I bought a N64 a year later so I had the best of both worlds



I put off buying a a PS1 and a Saturn because I was waiting for the N64. When the console, finally came, I was blown away! I had Mario 64, Pilotwings 64, Wave Race, and Killer Instinct Gold. But then my neighbor let me play Tekken 2.

Tekken 2 was WAAAAAAAY better than Killer Instinct. Plus the CGI cutscenses and music were better, too. I wound up buying Tomb Raider before I even had a PS1 to play it on. Then, I got a PS1 (almost a month later) with Resident Evil and Battle Arena Toshinden.

So, Tekken made me want a PS1. Resident Evil made me love the PS1.

Wow!!! Driver that brings back memories!

My sister bought one because the Hype.



Bought one after playing FF7 and 8.
Bought another one that could play NTSC games because of Lunar and Xenogears.

I didn't Playstation for a specific game, it looked like a good console so I purchased it.


This, but Crash Bandicoot was of a big influence aswell.




Crash Warped and Syphon Filter 2. I got to play them first at a friend's house... and damn... That thing just got me.



I bought it because it had a great rep at the time, not because of one game. My first game was Crash 3, though. I was HOOKED on it.
