One of my absolute favorite PS1 games is MTV Music Generator. Such a great, versatile game for creative projects. It lets you create tracks in different genres, and also lets you create the videos for them.

[@wussup12345]

I loved the second one on PS2. Put many many many hours into it

[@misterdavis9078]

Absolutely had great times with MTV MG. Very capable music creator. Still have like 4 copies myself lol. You could even sample a few seconds or so from any audio CD to put in your songs. Made hundreds of beats. Lost all my memory cards. Many years ago. Was devastated .

Crusaders of Might and Magic was the RPG game that I had the most fun in my childhood, I remember it was very difficult to imagine for a young 10 year old boy, I just remembered because my collections of games and consoles were stolen, just reviewing this cover brings me back to that eyes-purple-cryingface-red-heart-shape 10 year old boy. Thank you for his video it made me feel too, it reminded me of my childhood.

I wish I could have a collection like this, but it's great see yours in such detail, and the videos are always great to watch

[@PaulAndHisUkulele]

This took me all the way back to the late 90’s… I remember working in a Blockbuster when the PS1 and Sega Saturn were released and we rented them out for 7 day stretches with the array of launch titles… basically everyone wanted Ridge Racer and Battle Arena Toshinden! Another launch title I fondly remember (although looking back seems actually quite a poor game) was Kileak The Blood, a Doom-like FPS where you are in a Mechsuit. Like I say, probably not that strong a game any more but a curiosity you should definitely check out and have in your collection, especially as it was a Launch Title.

[@Mattius08]

Nostalgia. I use to buy the used games at blockbuster. Their used games were cheap and they always had the buy 2 get one free sales on used video games.

[@andresrodriguez2628]

Glad to see some Future Cop: LAPD footage. The multiplayer of this game brought a bunch of fun and joy for me and cousins back in the day. Vigilante 8-2 was bonkers, i personally liked it more than Twisted Metal games. I still remember the disco car ultimate and its "uh uh" sound. Thanks for putting together such a nice video!

[@nhh12345]

Strikers 1945 is absolutely fantastic on the PS 1. It's actually my favorite way to play the game, even over the arcade version.

[@espen6722]

I played through Croc: Legend of the Gobbos yesterday and would recommend picking that up. 3D platformer with focus on collecting all the Gobbos within the stages. It starts off deceptively easy. I need to look into Croc 2.

Spider man on ps1 was amazing. I recommend trying out the second one in that series. It's overlooked but still a fun title. And if you love racing games I highly recommend Sled storm. It's fairly common and not expensive at all so you probably have heard of it but it's one of the few racing games that has 4 player split screen. And a killer soundtrack.

[@joet6434]

Nostalgia overload man, you have such a cool collection. I began gaming at 6 when i got a Sega Mega Drive for Christmas & it was my console until i turned 11 & had money from certain different occasions, which i saved & put toward paying for the PS1, well about half, my parents footed the rest of the bill. Such great times with that console & such an amazing library of games, great times.

Future cop, twisted metal 2, the Gran turismo series, tekken series. during that era it was a blast playing these classics, the roots of where 3D games really originated from.. very nostalgic collection.

I notice you put loose CDs on the binder. They tend to get scratches when you pull out the games from the binder. Might want to reconsider to have them in single CD cases.

[@EvilAng3la]

Nice collection! The one game I would definitely recommend you add to your PS1 collection is one of my own faves, a lucky discovery back in the day - N2O: Nitrous Oxide. It's a tube shooter (think in the vein of Tempest), where you're moving around the inside of various shaped tunnels destroying a variety of insects. The soundtrack is all Crystal Method, too - so with the music and visuals, it's just a wild experience and I can't recommend it enough. Especially as it tends to be quite inexpensive! Tall Infinity is a definite oddity that doesn't get the love it deserves. A streamer I watch picked up the game, and it's a really interesting and involved action puzzle game. Dirt cheap, too, so a heavy RECOMMEND to anyone who loves those kind of games. There's a Japan-only sequel to it too, Tall: Twins Tower, which is even better in every way. Sadly, that one is EXPENSIVE - $300 and up for a copy.

[@captainduck23]

Demo discs sometimes came with a magazine that was released monthly. Tales of Destiny, and Valkyrie Profile are a couple games to try to find and play.

Yo Metal Jesus. I love your videos and you got me inspired to revamp my game collecting. To this day I regret not keeping my old PS1, N64, Genesis, SNES, boxed CD ROM PC games. I am slowly on a hunt to get these old games back.

[@JoeNayDoh]

Traded in a lot of my PS1 collection to GameStop during the PS2 era so I could buy new games. Luckily none of those games had gone up insanely in price so I was able to rebuild it over last year. Also happy to see Breath of Fire 3 in your collection, even if it's loose. One of my all time favorite games

[@cachorubione]

Loved the video! ps1 is my all time favourite console. When you showed car combats, I noticed there was no Rogue Trip. I loved that game and always thought it was underestimated. Do you know it? have you ever played it? take care my man!

Great episode as usual! Brought back a lot of memories from my younger days! Thanks MJR!

[@Paragleiber]

Great collection! For NFS Porsche I agree that it's better on PC but I think NFS 3: Hot Pursuit is actually very good on PS1. I think that would be a nice addition for you. The PS1 version has some exclusive hidden tracks that you unlock by entering codes. And the game also has some awesome original music. Look up the songs "Snorkeling Cactus Weasels", "Rear Flutterblast #19" and "Snow Bags" by Matt Ragan. And the songs are actually interactive. They move to the next part of the song when you reach a particular section of the race track. Then my personal hidden gem in terms of PS1 racing games is a game called "Total Drivin", known as "Grand Tour Racing 98" in your region, although that game is probably not for everyone. The controls are a bit weird (d-pad left for a slight left turn, d-pad left + L1 for a medium left turn, L1 alone for a sharp left turn). It's kind of cool though how the tracks get progressively harder from Stage 1 to Stage 6 of each location. And the EU version has some amazing techno music, although that might not be your taste. Finally a non-racing game that I enjoyed and that I didn't spot in your video would be "Hogs of War", which is kind of like a 3D version of Worms but with pigs instead of worms. The different factions are based on major countries with a lot of jokes in the names and dialogue. At least that's how it was in my local language. Not sure if they did that equally well in the English dub. The gameplay in the campaign missions was good as well though from what I remember.

[@Kurt1475]

Yes! Grand Tour Racing 98 is my favorite racing game on PS1. Its tough but not impossible gameplay and the music was dope

[@Enkeria]

Devil Dice, Loaded and Bishi Bashi kept me up at night whenever I felt like taking a break from a complete new run on Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, which is to this day, my top 1 game ever.

I'm going for a complete Ps1 collection. It's been a blast. I buy boxes of new jewel cases off of ebay and replace the old junky cases. Made the process of collecting easier since case condition is no longer a factor. So long as the art and manual are in good shape then I can add a game to the collection

[@cheatcodecharlie]

Thank you fro making Brain Nead 13 go up in price after this video lol!!! Great meeting you know Wisconsin Convention last year!!

I’ve been growing my ps1 collection slowly. I try not to just buy up every ps1 game i see but have found some fun ones here and there. I only have 19 but look forward to any I find when retro hunting. Can’t wait to go to hawii and maybe find some hidden gems there.

[@Cynbel_Terreus]

Nice collection, yeah there's definitely a number of games that are not cheap by any means, though also a lot that are around the price they were when they came out (not counting inflation). My PS1 collection is small, but I've mainly been looking for games I played or had as a kid. I was wondering when you might stream again, in particular I'd love to see you play Shivers, because of your Sierra history, which if you don't know has a randomizer available usable with the ScummVM version. It has a good number of options to make it more replay-able; added locations, solving certain puzzles, room randomization, etc.

[@doomzilla3568]

Yo! MJR!!! FANTASTIC COLLECTION!!!! As someone who grew up with the ps1 i always wanted to own these games as it's my favorite console but Don't have the money to do so, now it's going to be a challenge to get from rare to super rare to ridiculously rare and mostly underrated hidden gems that do need some love!!! Great video!!!!

[@DynastyWarriors6]

Freaking awesome collection, I have about 160 PS1 games, all black label, still building it. Saw some games that you have that I definitely want.

[@SuperQueenV.]

I actually don't mind the green label it stands out and you know automatically that it's PS just catching your eye. Great Video! Been waiting for this

[@Level1Sword]

I remember playing the PSN version of FFVII on PS3 when it was first available, and having a friend of a friend come over and ask me if I was playing the black label physical version. Some people seem to think the PS1 green and black label versions have major differences in the games themselves.

[@kulmor69]

Some did, some had fixes that couldn't be addressed in first edition and greatest hits was only reserved for the best games also because they offered them cheaper after a certain amount of sales. They can be compared to game of the year editions now and since ps1 games played off the disc, all of the data had to be on them. I remember when my aunt and uncle bought me and my little brother a ps1 for Xmas and then our washer broke so they had to take it back because my mom couldn't afford a new washer. 💔 gotten a used one cheap shortly after ps2 came out and had it couple years before getting a brand new ps2 and later breaking it. Now the systems are cheap but games are expensive, but some people care more about making money then playing games(myself included).

You rock! Wishing you and yours and the team a great 2023! Looking forward to more awesome videos. Ps1 was my first console even though I was already like 16 or so. They really got me with that cool teen marketing (wipeout1) . The fact that you collect also the Japanese imports and follow the Japanese library is great. A lot of us grew up as internationals around this era and had access to the Japanese models and ahem pirates games only. My first game was Zero Divide haha

The PS1 is my second favorite console of all time! A hidden gem and holy grail game that you should totally try to get is a game called Tail Concerto. You talked about it on your channel in the past. Solatorobo is the the spiritual successor to it and the characters from Tail Concerto even make appearances in Solatorobo as well.

[@GreyMatterShades]

Oh man, I've got so much nostalgia for the PS1. Almost every group of games you showed had some absolute bangers that I'd played back in the day, by owning, trading with friends, renting, or playing on demo disks. PS1 might be my favourite system (it's that or the SNES), so this was a great video to watch. I'm super jealous of this collection! Also, great to see you doing better and back to making kickass content!

Elemental Gearbolt looked really interesting! I remember the post: I chose FF8. Currently, I started to play Suikoden (Digital version). It is nice, how PS had also Diablo and Wing Commander in their selection. It might be that some of these earlier Gran Turismo and Ace Combat games have Ultraracer combatibility. Nice to see collection divided into categories. There are so many different kinds of games to PS (Galerians, Vampire Hunter D and the X-Files: The Game,...)

[@mbern4530]

Always funny to see my binder in these videos. Glad I sent them to you. They deserved a good home, lol. Have you found a box and manuals for Panzer Dragoon Saga yet? The sad part of the binder collection is that I eventually found the cases for a lot of the games but they were ruined. I had them packed in a very large storage box but my mom moved them to the garage......then the garage had a massive leak and ruined all of the manuals and cases, as well as my cloth Lunar Map. It was a sad day when I found them.

[@MetalJesusRocks]

You originally gave the binder to Kinsey to hand off to me, correct? And yes, thanks so much! That was an amazing donation. Really killer... as for acquiring some of the covers and manuals, that's a work in progress for sure. But it will happen. Thanks again. You rock!

[@SaintCyrX]

I love the long boxes. As a kid/teen that spanned the Ps1 era, the long boxes always seemed nostalgic to me EVEN AT THE TIME haha. Like, I would be browsing new ps1 releases and see the long box used games at the bottom of a rack and think "wow, so olllld". Some of those early LB's also scream VERY early 3d era when compared to the later games.

[@GreyMatterShades]

I totally know what you mean. A couple years into the PS1's life and those long boxes seemed like relics of the past. There was a ton of advancement during the PS1's lifespan in terms of graphics and average game quality, since developers started to come to terms with the new tech and figure out how to actually make 3D games. So yeah, early PS1 games definitely feel much more dated than later PS1 games.

[@Empyre47AT]

As somebody who has been buying manuals and other inserts for loose games I've purchased to make them complete, money isn't necessarily saved going after them to make them complete. Although, it depends on the game. I've gotten manuals for as cheap as around $5. Other times, I've paid enough that I could have just gone for a CIB copy of the game on eBay. I've also seen loose games going for nearly as much as CIB. Again, it really depends on the title.

[@VogueDistortion]

I agree, it is often more expensive to puzzle together a complete collection. But it's a rewarding feeling to bring everything back together. When you find a loose copy for very cheap, it can be a fun little project.

If you ever visit Japan again, try looking for Ace Combat 3 Electrosphere, which is the truly complete version of the game coming in 2 discs, unlike the NTSC-US port which was hideously butchered because of corporate decisions. That is if you can find it for a decent price, given that the game is an absolute cult classic and it would be north of $100 if not more. But it's well worth every cent for all Ace Combat fans, myself included. Have a good one!

[@MetalJesusRocks]

I might be going back to Japan this year. Thanks!

Jason great video man , psx was where I went into mature gaming when I was about 11 … what an innovative time and I do remember the long box games !!! Haha wow . Love that you had tenchu in your collection one of my all time favorites . Take care bud

[@ryanleeharrell]

I loved Brave Fencer Musashi back in the day. My older cousin let me borrow it as a kid. What a legend.

MARCH 24, great collection man, so satisfying to watch this video

[@itchy.tasty.]

I much prefer the thicker pal cases. Great video as always!

That demo disc footage you used was the exact demo disc I spent hundreds of hours playing as a kid! It felt like I got all these games for free and was able to hop on 8 different games that were on one single disc! Now I am downloading that same disc right now and putting it on my emulator and on my PS1 Classic! Those demo disc's were super neat! From the UI to the sound effects and background music, also the mini video's showing upcoming games. There was little video's made for the disc's as well and I remember this one as it has been burned into my memory. It is basically a convertor belt and it's all animated as it shows how the demo disc's were made in a cartoony fashion. I have been trying to find this on YT along with the music used in the little video and I have never found it to this day, so I am going to upload that finally, right after I rewatch it for the first time in 18 years lol.

Glad you're doing better and back to your videos, missed em man but I still watch a lot of your older stuff. Literally you and avgn are the channels I fall asleep too

I appreciate that 👍

💖💖💖YOU DO NOT HAVE TO FEAR DEATH IF YOU BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST, AND TRUST IN HIM WITH ALL YOUR HEART, BECAUSE HE ATONED FOR YOU FOR ALL YOUR INSULTS, THAT YOU WOULD OBTAIN PEACE WITH ALMIGHTY GOD, AND GO TO HEAVEN BY HIS GRACE!!! (The Holy Bible according to the Gospel of John, chapter 5 and verse 24, Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God says, whose existence can be proven by countless people from their own lives, says: Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath eternal life. He is not condemned but has passed from death to life.)💖

Small Soldiers is definitely a hidden gem and a must own.

[@RealmOfDuelists]

Thank you for this vid. I enjoyed it. You got a really wonderful collection and I like your passion. 🔥👏🏼 Life is too short for bad games. 🤓

[@shane3674]

I always love when you post videos like this because I discover games I missed out on!

[@alvin1667]

[@HoldFastFilms]

Man I had Ainhander on standby in case you didn't have it LOL! But I am pretty sure you've mentioned it before. What a gem of a game!

[@Fallout9520]

Best game on the PS1 is Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

[@MetalJesusRocks]

I have yet to finish it!! I know, I know... #SHAME 😂 Maybe I should do that this weekend.

What about Metal gear solid?

[@GamerPlaypen]

Just happy to hear your voice Metal Jesus, PlayStation 1 really opened my eyes to the possibilities of gaming when I was younger due to how many games they were releasing back then. I was a nintendo fan for so long but realized variety was missing once I started playing on ps1. Long time fan of your channel, keep making great content like this and rock on

[@dean4125]

i was so addicted to Tony Hawks Pro Skater. Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 are 2 of my favorite games of all time. those are so much fun.

[@ridgeracer2810]

Cool video as usual. Missed my favorite ps1 game thou- TIME COMMANDO. Talk about a unike game with an amazing story. That would be the first game i would do a remake of if i was a game dev. Keep up the amazing work mjr! 🥂

[@moderngamingweeklypodcast]

Not sure if you had Thousand Arms in there but definitely a great RPG, up there with Lunar in my opinion. Great video! I always add games to my wishlist with these types of videos!

[@scaryboi2897]

Great collection! I found symphony of the night complete for $3 at savers a while back.

[@kevinharris7902]

Your segment about demo disks reminds me of the Square sample disc that had playable demos of Bushido Blade and Einhander, and some FMV of FF7 and Tactics. That was probably the collection that sold me on owning a Playstation for myself. Still have my copy of Einhander, and probably the most rare game I own!

[@edgarroviraortega4805]

Ps one was my first console and Mega man X 4 the first game that played in my life, I saw the game is on your collection , so cool , also love to discover hidden gems for this console.

[@Stubbla]

did you ever see how the cases were in the U.K ? I always remember when i was younger and i visited friends in America and saw that in the U.S they used normal cd cases. The U.K ones were thicker

[@xiba5838]

Test drive 6 was just a GEM of a racing game, the opening songclip of ``Cars by Fear Factory`` always made you so hyped up for the whole campaign and the car pool was so well chosen. That was the game that made me fall in love with the Shelby Cobra car. Definetily the best console ever, there`s just games for ALL kinds of taste in there and every genre has mustiple epic games, oh man!

[@JRomeo310]

This really brought me so many memories watching some of these titles on your video! Thank you so much 🙏🏽

[@overlordalfredo]

13:44 Wild 9 and Spider are so great and not well-known Games as well! Also Overboard is a great PS1 game, not sure if it was realized in the states though...

[@theoroche27]

I've been with you for years man and you never seem to age

[@DeathmetalSe7en]

Just fired up this video and can't wait. I recently picked up a Japanese PlayStation for 30 bucks so I was able to buy Trap Gunner, Silent Bomber and Parappa for way cheaper. Hopefully I can find some more awesome games that are less expensive in Japan and don't have too many Lost in translation issues. Welcome back dude!

[@Punisher6791]

238! damn nice MJR, im currently at 103 PS1 games in my collection. I've got a lot of the PS1's best games like the Spyro Trilogy, the Crash Bandicoot Trilogy, The Syphon Filter Trilogy, Dino Crisis 1 and the highly sought after Dino Crisis 2. resident evil 1 , 2 and 3 and even Survivor. metal gear solid and vr missions, ape escape, the jet moto trilogy and all of the Tomb Raider games, the first 3 of them being in a special collectors set with the original box too. i even have sealed copies of Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver and Tomb Raider 3! and yes, Forsaken is a game i absolutly love too. that game cant get enough Praise. i own it for ps1, the N64 and the remaster on PC.

[@RobertLewis85]

Return Fire is a hidden gem for PC/PS1. It's a top down, military capture-the-flag game kinda like Desert Strike or Jungle Strike/Urban Strike, I forget what they were called exactly for the SNES/Genesis era.
