100 PS1 Hidden Gems...in 10 Minutes (TURN ON SUBTITLES)

Overboard is the PAL version (Europe) and Shipwreckers the NTSC version (USA)

Glad you added G-police. Psygnosis is so underrated as a developer for their great unique and diverse library made on PS1.

[@nicholasyost8400]

I'm just glad people remember Wargames: Defcon 1 and The Unholy War.

[@elplumaje]

Agree 200%

@@slowtalker Too true, time marches on. Oh, what was that saying about letting go of the past? Forget the former things, do not dwell on the past. I'm just glad some of us do remember. As we make room for the future generations, let's all remember the good times we had so they can have theirs too.

[@TexasHollowEarth]

Yup. Learned about them with the Amiga 500 & Shadow of the Beast 👍

[@Gfors85]

When I was 13, I wrote in an assignment about my future that I hoped that I would work at Psygnosis. :(

[@fiachramurray102]

Man this video unlocked a lot of hidden memories for me.

[@DanYellowZena]

Brave Fencer Musashi is one of my favorite games ever. A total underrated RPG/JRPG, so full of charm and didn't take itself too serious. Amazing soundtrack. Gekido is one of my favorite beat'em ups ever. Tail Concerto rocks my socks. Such a cute game. Einhander is one of my favorite 2-3D side scrollers ever. I still play it from time-to-time and it has a rocking soundtrack.

[@chesspunk489]

Brave Fencer Musashi is my 4th favorite game of all time. I play it once or twice a year.

[@imperial_ecologist]

Front Mission 3 - hidden gem? in Russia it is one of the most popular games on PS1......

[@saobernardopinheiro]

Interesting

[@jhna314]

Mr. Putin has a plan

[@StaleBearFarts]

In Russia, Hidden Gem You.

[@SatoshiKenji]

Legend of Legaia is so underrated, I hardly see anyone mention it when it comes to PS1 games. I really hope they either make a reboot or sequeal.

[@TruMaverick]

There is a Legend of Legaia 2. Legend of Legaia is the Best Gem imo

[@davidmccormick550]

Legaia 2 is more of same universe-ish. Good, but different feel. Bigger cast, but also not as much flexibility. Each character was locked to a single element, and the storyline wasn’t as good. At least that’s my opinion. One thing I didn’t like was the addition of racism and the backstabbing main villain. Avalon had one of the best themes ever, but he just didn’t feel like a real character. Edit: Crafting system was god-tier. Best one so far , including Elden Ring. Only thing it lacked was attack items, but you can craft weapons, armor, accessories, and items, including stat boosts. Getting Avernus gems could only be done in the final dungeon, as it was a steal item. You could customize your characters, including bonus stat. The full crafting guide for accessories needs to be seen to be believed. 2nd Edit: Ps2 game.

[@joaobatistaperinjunior953]

Bold of you to want a sequel on current times

[@facundoclapier]

Legend of Legaia it's the best

[@JannaBanana]

Legend of Legaia is my favourite RPF of all time

[@shockcityshocker]

Very glad to see Skullmonkeys and Tiny Tank get some love. I had never seen footage of The Divide or Gundam Battle Assault but they both look killer!

[@Ilikemakingstuff]

Wild 9 is super underrated. Used to love that game growing up

[@NewportBox100s]

Such an epic console with a vast library of rare classics that can be emulated flawlessly and always have something to play.

[@alexk8792]

I'm tickled pink that you gave Speed Punks some acknowledgement. Too many people sleep on it because of the driving physics.

[@NeroLordofChaos]

Warzone 2100 actually has a freeware release for the PC. when the company shuttered, the liscense holder published the source code and a dedicated group of fans have been updating and balancing the game ever since. plays well on modern systems and only takes up a GB of space.

[@davidmccormick550]

Legend of Legaia is one of my favorite games, even now. Ehergeiz: Enter the ring was good, and had a rpg storyline with the fighting game. Silent Bomber was decent, but Nintendo Hard is an understatement. Tai Fu : Enter the tiger was good, but platforming was up to That One Level in Crash bandicoot.

[@theosr93]

Silent Bomber & Gear Fighter Dendoh is amazing. I can't believe i missed those gems. Thanks to you.

[@jiraiya0698]

I'm so glad Evil Zone is here. Thanks Gary.

[@haloslayer255]

I still play Evil Zone (I have all three regions) my survival mode score is highest 32, lowest 26. I typically play the Japanese version for its intro music, and also to hear the original dialog of the game. Really wish it got its sequel like it was planned, I always thought Ihadurca would reincarnate into another host but have to fight for good this time, like how she kept trying to absorb Karin, what if that causes her to reincarnate as a good entity? Random ideas but I still wish they happened. Have a good day all!

[@divinefallfromgrace]

Criminally underrated indeed. Such a simple and addictive play style, and OTT in an Anime way. 😁

[@haloslayer255]

@@divinefallfromgrace someday I hope they figure a way to have systems linked online similar to the ps1digital tcp/ip serial port function. Just imagine two player versus on Evil Zone (Eretzvaju) over the Internet. Have a good day!

The Adventures of Lomax is such a beautiful looking game, but it is so hard because of the hitboxes for some of the obstacles.

[@YuzuOtonashi]

@@cheddar6738 indeed I really wonder why there are no sequels to such good game

[@cheddar6738]

@@YuzuOtonashi It comes from a time when studios used to have smaller teams making games like this and more free reign to include things like swearing etc. I think it just wouldn't be a safe bet to make it now. Maybe an indie dev might make something similar. It's hard to even find any info on the making of team buddies.

[@lucascouto166]

I wanna try check some of those out I've already tried a few of these, and I must say, Threads of Fate is one of the best games I could ever find, it's an extremely fun adventure with LOADS of gags

One additional fun game for anyone interested would be Trap Gunner. In single player its OK, but if played with someone that is fun as hell. Its like a bit more complex version of bomberman that focuses on 1v1 matches.

[@smallpaul2923]

When I first bought the ps1 when it came out, I was always slightly jealous that I didnt have an n64. The pricing of the n64 games always put it out of my league. Some games were £80 if I remember correctly. Looking back now, I think I made a wise decision. The catalogue of ps1 games blows the n64 away. I consider the n64 overrated to be honest. Great video as always Gary.

MY TIME AT PORTIA is the patreon Steamkey this time -- one of the best, chill crop-raising and adventure sims. Cheers Gary! Another great list of games in this video -- cool stuff! A few of my favorite PS1 games are on here -- some of the lesser-known games are just as fun (or almost as fun) as the bigname titles. What I notice is that a lot of these games may be well-known to fans of certain genres or publishers ... but in general most of them deserved to sell more copies. Weren't widely-enough played. Maybe that's the fault of the publishers (advertising/promotion)? Or of the videogame magazines? Or of mainstream gamers' limited desire to explore? I'm still buying PS1 games like this -- just picked up The Italian Job & Blaster Master Blasting Again a couple of months ago, both games well worth playing!
