A Look At EVERY Namco PS1 Game | Sean Seanson

I suppose if I'm going to play 60 games for a very long video project, they might as well be good. Join me, the one and only generic Irish PlayStation man, as we take a journey through the library of games Namco was involved with on the original PlayStation.

CORRECTION! Bad news folks we I didn't just miss one, but three whole games! Two Japan only quiz titles called Kosodate Quiz My Angel (November 1997) & it's follow up Kosodate Quiz Motto My Angel (March 1999) and Micromachine V3 (January 1998) which turns out was published by Namco over in Japan. If theres anything else, please let me know in the comments below, apologies for missing out on em! also, I just want to highlight the Arcade version of Starblade is actually rendered in real-time using polygons and is not FMV! My bad on that one. Some folks have also asked for a music list, please find that in the reply to this comment below (it was too large to fit into the video description) Appreciate the kind comments and support for the video so far, you're all sweethearts

[@bretton_woods]

Love the video but you should put up an epilepsy warning before some of the clips, Namco Museum 3 (starting at 46:44 ) what the heck is going on in those rooms with all that flashing of the in-game screens, for example? I am guessing it's an emulator issue? Anyway, it was really hard to watch and had to keep looking away. Keep up the good work, anyways

[@SeanSeanson]

@@bretton_woods I'll always try to consider this during videos, as you can see with the warning during the Time Crisis segment but please be aware I can only go off when games give me warnings ahead of time and what I myself can perceive as potentially triggering, lots of old games are like this and I wouldn't have considered that scene or any others worthy of a warning based on my perception of it (that's also also how it is in game on hardware too , not emulator related.) I've seen worse in many of these older games, the level of care for triggers isn't comparable to modern day games, so while I try to limit flashing images theres never a 100% guarantee I'll be able to pick up on each and every one of them. Its never intentional, but do keep that in mind going forward.

[@N0KHturnal]

As a Hardcore and Hard Techno lover, I'm glad you mentioned Gabber music within the Ridge Racer review, usually no one specifically mentions that kind of music!

[@princeknight4773]

Gabber is niche

[@RetroRulzMyTown]

Honestly, as a HUGE Namco fan(of the classic era, I hate Bandai Namco), this video is REALLY well appreciated here. Not only do you look over every game here that needed more attention, but even exposed me to some new games I never even knew about like Ghoul Panic & Treasures of the Deep. Also I think one thing I'd like to see with this collection videos is something of a top 10 favorites of the list, as something to say "if you had to pick one game here" or "if there's any obscure game i'd recommend above all else"

I always remember Voldo's one were he rubs his face against soul edge before he places it on a stand in his masters treasure vault, but while he is doing this you can press up and down to make him ..... rub faster.... and if you do it to much the Soul Edge breaks and the ghost of Voldo's master scolds him XD

all facts

[@turismofoegaming8806]

It’s because of ridge racer in Tekken that my father got me a PlayStation for Christmas in 1995 when I was 11 years old!! Me and my father had took a “father and son“ trip to the beach that previous summer and in the arcade, was none other than Tekken and ridge racer and I swear we must’ve played each one of those games hundreds of times?!?! But having a game like ridge racer at that time, was truly next level and blew my mind completely, even my parents in the adult at the time cannot believe what they were looking at!

[@DrPepperone]

Fun fact about about Rescue Shot: in Italy bootleggers used to sell the Japanese version under the guise of a fictitious Pokémon game for PS1. Seriously lots of disappointed kids (including my sister) bought a game with a Pikachu on the cover just to find themselves with an indecipherable game where only trial and error taught you that you actually shouldn’t shoot at the rabbit. The reasons why bootleggers decided to pass that game as Pokémon remain mysterious to this day.

[@vahlok1426]

The Museums in the Namco collections just hit me with both nostalgia, and the realization that these are where the aesthetic and style for the Haunted PS1 Demo collections' interactive menus came from.

[@ilypo]

Sean, all I have to say after watching for your channel for a while is that you're one of those youtubers that's just inevitably gonna blow up. You deserve every bit of recognition you get, congratulations on another great video my friend

Every time I read a comment like this I look at his subcount and am shocked he's at only 8k, my brain just autocorrects to 80k or 800k, both numbers which make way more sense. No clue how he hasn't blown up yet, but considering how high quality literally all of his vids are its only a matter of time.

Man I picked up a boxed libero grande international in mint manual and all for £10 like 3 years ago. I actually rented it from blockbuster in the day and both libero grande's are amongst my favourite ps1 games. As a big football fan they are unique and control solidly given their age and the training mode in the first is so good to learn and FIFA etc copied that in future

[@WaddleDee105]

As someone that grew up with an N64 and Dreamcast, I didn't know Namco was THIS prevalent on the PSX! I obviously knew about Tekken and Ridge Racer, but I wasn't aware of how massive the Namco Museum series was, or how many RPGs and ESPECIALLY light gun games there were. Also, I had no clue Klonoa's foray into Volleyball was actually good! I just assumed it would be a subpar spin-off. Heart Moo is so adorable!

[@athena4043]

[@novaanverdiano7589]

Man I've been thinking about Ghoul Panic lately, not being able to remember its name and here you are, covering it. Absolute MVP

[@fictionalmediabully9830]

'Ridge Racer' is responsible for one thing that effectively cemented the PlayStation as a serious player in the console market. It made the Sega Saturn look like the inferior machine thanks to the less than stellar conversion of 'Daytona USA'. Couple that with being less expensive, and you have a console that's guaranteed to be a hit with consumers, which only continued upwards by the time the cartridge-based Nintendo 64 came out. 'Pac-Man World' has an interesting development history. It was initially going to be a full 3D platformer called 'Pac-Man Ghost Zone' that involved a kid transforming into Pac-Man and being sucked into an arcade. It was eventually cancelled due to an apathetic response by a staff member at Namco Japan, which lead to some of the developers being fired. Looking at footage of the game on Playstation Museum the apathy is justified, it's essentially a visually slightly better 'Bubsy 3D' only it would have been released when something that was considered passable in 1996 would be deemed clunky and unenjoyable in the following years. In other words, the decision to scrap the project in favour of what the game became was the right one. Another excellent video.

[@davidscott9257]

that soul edge intro still gives me goosebumps all these years later.

[@erebus015]

that's a rough one, Klonoa was clearly the superior 2.5D platformer but Pandemonium has an amazing OST and some amazing visuals (the sky levels were genuinely magical, the game was tough for young me so the first time I saw that cloud path blew mind).

Awesome video, I didn't realise Namco had so many games on the PlayStation. Love playing Ridge Racer & the rest of the games in the series, Tekken 3 is just awesome & loved Time Crisis back in the day, now that I think of it, most of the games I played in the 1st few weeks of getting to experience the PS1 were mostly Namco games LOL. They really were ahead of the game & greatly managed to excel with each new game or sequel from their line up. So many great memories, again cheers for sharing another epic video!

[@raszop]

First time in my life I watched 3 hour long KZbin video. Great work I'm gonna watch some others too now. You're great

[@SeanSeanson]

Aw thank you 🙏

[@roezlf]

One of the few channels I anticipate every video from. This one is a gift!

[@olivefuzzball5797]

This didn’t even feel like 3 hours passed while watching! Man your videos are just phenomenal. Thank you so much for continuing to put out this amazing content.

[@crake345]

This channel is pure gold

[@Marco-00]

Awesome video man, best ps1 content creator by far. keep it going! can't wait for the next one!

[@hungng8728]

So good. So many memories brought back from the 90s.

[@Onikirikage]

Man, I just binged your Squaresoft and Psygnosis video and starting this. You’re an absolute madman but man, I love your work.

[@DSL_Returns]

I admire the effort you went through and your music knowledge as well! Had a blast watching this and moving onto the Squaresoft vid right now!

[@alice-pz1kf]

Thanks for the recommendations, now I got some new games to look out for

[@funkymon1251]

Enjoyed the video! Thank you for the work you've put in to make these!

[@summerlaverdure]

awesome video, thank you for making this

[@5ushiBoy]

Great video! Thanks for the hard work!

[@sebastianesilva398]

Another banger of a video. We love to see it.

[@jarnalyrkar]

I knew there was something cooking! Wow, this is incredible stuff, Sean! I'm looking very much forward to enjoying this one! 🍿

[@CQCorruptionQuest]

Literally went out of my way to look for Najavu no Daiboken: My Favourite Namjatown and found a copy used that didn’t make me break the bank. Thanks for showing these games and giving people a new look at them. I’ve been looking into a lot of ps1 stuff and making things on them so it’s always nice to find others doing the same and with such good quality content to boot

[@gaylord5004]

Thank you very much for this awsome video!!!

[@tomason1986]

Great video! Your narration was on point and very entertaining. Greetings from Argentina!

[@JimmyMcGinger]

Wow, this video was amazing. The perfect accompaniment to my work day. Subbed.

[@JohnBradyIRL]

A collection of some of the best games on PS1 and possibly ever

[@TheThatEthanGuy]

What I've learned from this video, Namco released a LOT of light gun games and I love to see it.

[@Chamele7n]

Thanks so much for your work on this video. So much ps1 goodness!

[@JackKuchiki]

Incredible video! 🎉

[@Mister_Clean]

It's fantastic to look at these games I used to love as a kid again. Such a great breakdown. NAMCO really defined a generation.

[@willworkforfood7028]

The idea that Ridge Racer was releaased in October 1993 is wild. For reference Doom, Star fox, Megaman X Mario All-Stars, Syndicate and X-COM UFO Defense was released in 1993. That is the level of graphical fidelity Ridge Racer was competing with. Other groundbreaking 3D games like quake 1 wouldn't be released until years later.

[@AuricomSystems]

Oh jeez a 3 hour video from Sean for my Sunday night, absolutely blessed!

[@AuricomSystems]

Hold on, Treasures of the Deep was a Namco joint?

[@zizzlefax8861]

Keep making these amazing videos and you're gonna blow up soon. You deserve it and I'm honestly annoyed you haven't yet considering this is one of the most bingeable/entertaining channels on youtube

[@vladv5126]

Little did Sony and Namco know, they had nothing to fear from Sega, as they were about to release the Saturn. lol.

[@acceptablecasualty5319]

Air Combat and Ace Combat 2 had some of the best Synth Tracks on the PS1.

[@WanderlustZero]

Aw no love for 3? :')

[@acceptablecasualty5319]

@@WanderlustZero 3 is good, but it's very much tailor-made for the scenarios it's played in. It isn't a universal banger like 2 or 1

[@Dandys11]

I've just been thinking about your channel last week, hoped for something new to drop soon and then this happened? You are absolute mad lad, absolutely amazing idea, still halfway through, but I wish this video would never end, no other videos make me to click so quick and enjoy every second of your well edited videos, not mentioning all those amazing soundtracks. You're the man, Sean

[@SeanSeanson]

Appreciate you watching as always my dude :)

[@NostalgiaDigital]

awesome work! thank you very much!

[@Razorblade1812]

The first time I heard of Namco was of course from the legendary Demo One Version 5, first and foremost through the playable demo of Rage Racer that was included on it, before I got to hear about Namco again through Klonoa: Door to Phantomile which I got to play the demo of via Euro Demo 07/98, my 2nd German OPM demo disc. And coincidentally enough, that game eventually became my very first ever game from Namco that I owned just a few weeks after playing the demo, thanks to a friend of my one of my mum's friends who had loads of PlayStation games that were given to me, mostly copied discs of course. Tekken 3 and Ridge Racer Type 4 became the next games by Namco that I got to own and grow up with during my first year of PlayStation in 1998/1999.

[@kyuban3943]

I am so glad KZbin recommended your channel, so glad! One of the most enjoyable I've ever watched here and most certainly the longest. Much love, man. Please, do not stop

[@SeanSeanson]

Wow thank you! Appreciate the kind words friend.

[@RemnantCult]

Your last video on Psygnosis PS1 games prompted me to buy a PlayStation Classic and homebrew it to play games I haven't touched in years. I don't know what it is about Sony during that time but they were able to jump into the video game console market without breaking a sweat while so many others failed. They did have help from software houses like Namco though and they were on a roll too. What a hell of a generation of video gaming.

[@trombonekingdom]

Namco? Man I love you for this!

[@MightyEggroll]

NEW SEAN SEANSON VIDEO JUST DROPPED OH HELL YEAH

[@MathiasRyuzaki]

Hey Sean, I'd like to compliment you on your work. It's incredible and greatly appreciated! I'm a huge fan of the substance of the PSX games. The atmosphere, the music and the general feel of this games and the way you produce/edit your videos greatly complement those assets. I am going though a lot of PS2 games nowadays due to the emulator being so good nowadays and finally founding a place I can acquire original copies of these games without having to pawn a liver. And NAMCO has a very special place in my heart and in the library of the system. Please keep it up!

[@ryandavis4936]

i love this, what an incrredible undertaking

[@quickdrawmcgrawww]

just binged the japan only obscure games series over the last week or so. Sent a few to my friends. Keep trucking, you deserve a lot more viewers!

[@whiskeyclone11]

thank you for the using that one part of 'your vibe' in the Type 4 part. :)

[@kaishmuper]

awesome vid, subscribed

[@Geno746]

Wow Sean is spoiling us today.

[@swosho]

What a blessed video! It's all connected!

[@ScienceGeniusGirl]

Great video, lots of stuff in here I hadn't heard about that I definitely want to check out now.

[@gamingwithlacks]

Lol I just looked at your profile and your tag, "long videos to fall asleep to" is BANG ON! I've been falling asleep to this video for the past few nights.

[@obscuracrimepodcast]

Incredible video. Subbed.

[@christianruffin1342]

2:37 There’s just something about this song that gets me hooked every time I watch your videos. I just got to know that sound.
