Final Fantasy Tactics. Modern strategy RPG basically look the same and play with the same principles. Their stories are as mature as FFT's was. So basically, developers are basically making the same game 27 years later.

The two first (and IMO, best) Legacy of Kain games, Blood Omen and Soul Reaver, are still fantastic to this day. In fact, Blood Omen was recently (finally) released on GOG, and I bought it day one and played it through one more time. And it was every bit as awesome as it was 25+ years ago.

Didn't play Blood Omen, but Soul Reaver was definitely visually appealing. I remember shifting between realms in one area looking so amazing, you could tell it was really pushing the hardware as the frame rate did drop significantly. Also, the way the world was modeled and textured was brilliant, allowing its traversal not to be interrupted by loading screens.

*Final Fantasy IX* has aged beautifully. To this day, it holds up better than the other two (VII, and VIII), though they are fine games. *Street Fighter Alpha 3* is still an excellent port of the arcade original. While we can get arcade perfect versions, now, the PS1 version is still very well done. *Final Fantasy Tactics* is still the yardstick by which all other strategy RPGs are measured. We desperately need a remaster, or at least a port, of this brilliant game. *Klonoa* is every bit the equal of Tomba, in terms of exciting 2D style platforming. It is utterly charming, quite colorful, and an absolute blast to play. *Lunar Silver Star Story Complete* and *Lunar 2 Eternal Blue Complete* (boy, that’s certainly a mouthful) are two amazing RPGs that time seems to have forgotten. The 2D art is quite lovely, while the story and music tell two gripping tales of adventure. The anime cutscene’s are still beautiful and everything in these games gives the player a true sense of reward upon completion. *Valkyrie Profile* . This was a very unique game that touched on Nordic mythology at a time when few games bothered with the subject. The graphics were outstanding, as were the game play and battles. This is one for the ages. These are a few that deserve to be on a list like yours. Thank you for your lovely trip down memory lane.

I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I highly recommend playing these games on retroarch with crt shaders. The shaders really clean up the image for 2D games like Castlevania and 3D games like Crash can be upscaled to look clearer and sharper. The emulated ps1 can even be overclocked so that some games like Jumping Flash can achieve higher framerates(60fps on ps1!).

Some other less talked about great PS1 RPGs that imo are masterpieces and hold up incredibly well today. Are Grandia, Vandel Hearts, and Arc the Lad 2! I might even argue that Arc of Lad 2 might just be one of the greatest SRPGs ever created, and I don't think hardly anyone has ever played it! The one flaw it has is you have to play the extremely underwhelming Arc of Lad 1 to get the full story of 2 haha. But it is a really short game, so not too bad.

MGS 1 is the best game ever... MMX 1 on SNES is the best MMX... I wished I would see Tail Concerto here since I saw it in the intro.

Valkyrie Profile is the best for me, i replay it every new years eve. This year they actually made a "remaster" for PS5, but the only change is apparently resolution and some graphics.

Great selection and video. I vote Tomb Raider 4, as its kind of the swansong for a certain kind of 3rd person adventure game that you don't see anymore. You have to do all the work and set up the jumps and vaults whereas a newer ps3 or 4 era game would have you just holding the action button and going in a direction doing fancy parkour stuff. Beautiful scenery and levels like in the earlier games but with better graphics and more fluid gameplay to back it up.

And don't forget, these pixelated digital screen captures don't NEARLY show off how good they ACTUALLY looked on a proper CRT, which the games were designed for. Even in how they programmed the graphics for how they knew the old TVs would kind blur the edges of the pixels to achieve good shading and color blending. If you think any of this roster looks good in this video, your mind would be blown if you saw them on a CRT! Especially a good one like an old Sony Trinitron or Vega TV. GORGEOUS colors, still to this day. I know because I still have one.

Suikoden II is still one of my favorite games of all time. Sadly my copy was so damaged that it always just crashed as soon as I got the fortress - wich you forgot to mention as it is one of the reasons why the game is so fun, watching the headquarter and your army build up over time. I tried to play it over and over again anyway in hopes that it maybe doesn't crash this time until one day I just had to accept the fact that I can't play it anymore.

Some excellent games on here. Personally, 10 games that hold up well from this era for me are : Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill, Tombi, Tomb Raider, Silent Bomber, Tekken 3, Civilization 2, Colin McRae Rally 2.0, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, Rugrats : The Search For Reptar 10 that I think don't hold up particularly well, would include : Dino Crisis, Resident Evil, Syphon Filter, Spider-Man, Tony Hawk's Skateboarding, Ape Escape, Crash Bandicoot 1, Tenchu, Die Hard Trilogy, Twisted Metal

Skullmonkeys, Valkyrie Profile, Resident Evil Nemesis, Mega Man Legends, FF8 and 9, Dino Crisis, Medievil, Parasite Eve... I can't think of any more that have aged amazingly well at the moment. Akuji and Gex Enter the Gecko are two I love personally but people may dislike. Vagrant Story I could never finish.

You missed Valkyrie Profile, arguably one of the absolute BEST PS1 games and still fantastic to this very day. Warning: the game will break your heart and make you cry if you have even a shred of empathy left in your heart.

Metal Gear Solid was released on the Playstation as a chance for Konami and Hideo Kojima to test out the console 3D graphic capabilities and it have been a technical demo each of the console generations (Playstation 2 has the Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3, PS3 has the Metal Gear Solid 4, and PS4 has both the Metal Gear 5: Ground Zero and The Phantom Pain, and the controversial Metal Gear Survive). The Playstation release of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night was meant to address the limitation from the Sega Saturn release (Problem with fog transparency and rendering 3D model) but it was rushed and has a different content from the Sega Saturn version (Underground Garden, 2 familiars, and Maria mode was excluded). Some of these were included in the PSP version as Dracula X Chronicles as an unlockable.
