The 10 WEIRDEST PS1 Games

Welcome to MojoPlays! Today we’re heading to the upside down and looking for some stranger things as we check out the 10 weirdest PS1 games. For this list, we’ll be looking at some of the most experimental and just downright mental titles released on the PlayStation 1 during its lifecycle. We’ll only be focusing on titles released outside of Japan because those oddities deserve a list all their own. Our list includes “Sheep” (2000), “Baldies” (1995), “Nightmare Creatures” (1997), “Skullmonkeys” (1998), “Pandemonium!” (1996) and more! What was the weirdest game you played on Sony’s first console?

Incredible Crisis.

[@randomreviews4278]

0:50 uhhhhhh 90s this game came out in 2000

[@robertrobillard4844]

Aaron ... Your Humor SUCKS !

[@ElChipsFiestaBuffet]

Abes odyssey with skullmonkeys at a close second

[@chickenwings6172]

Wow! no VIP wit Pam Anderson or spice world.

[@Spacemutiny]

Hogs of War is amazing! Fun fact: there was a PC version but it was bugged and the AI never moves in that version making it much easier.

[@Rapamaru]

Me and my buddies were obsessed with this game. Great multiplayer fun!

[@darkaquaalxehanort9788]

I like weird games. Sometimes they stood out of the crowd. Let's just say weird games is trying to do something new and exciting.

[@RespectTheLogos3]

Fact: Hogs of War was made by Infogrames Sheffield House, which used to be Gremlin Interactive, a studio best known for the games Zool, Actua Soccer and Lotus Espirit Turbo Challenge. The voice work for Hogs of War was done by the late great Rik Mayall.

[@robowolfgaming8775]

Hogs of War was one of my favorite games when I had the PS1. I was extremely happy when I found it on Steam about a year ago, but then my happiness was crushed when I learned that Hogs of War could not be played with Windows 10 and newer updates

[@Spacemutiny]

You don’t want to play the pc version anyway. There was a bug that was never fixed and the AI enemies don’t move, only shoot.

[@wavysheep]

Hogs of war was one of those games that really brought back memories of the good old days

[@jesussanchezdelafuente32]

Vib Ribbon was so innovative and mind blowing. You could actually remove the game from your console, put a CD of your own and play the songs from there. Most of the songs didn't play well at all but it was cool anyway.

[@atharvtyagi3435]

Sheep should receive a remake, its looks like a cool game.

[@Highretrogamelord]

It is a really fun game. I have the PC version. There is also a GBA version which is arguably somewhat of a remake.

[@Nov-5062]

Remakes are greedy and unnecessary.

[@andyd3447]

Nightmare Creatures was amazing! Used to play it every day after school as a teen!

[@F_L_U_X]

7:45 "unlike anything seen at the time"? What about Earthworm Jim and Clayfighter?

[@jsmith3946]

earthworm jim wasn't claymation

[@GAnimeRO]

At least you're doing the right thing and actually link to all channels of which video footage you have used, I very much appreciate that!

[@felipeaguena5289]

10:08 That voice crack though 😂

[@bloodfun2585]

"everyone was jUsT LiKe yOu" 😂

The 10 weirdest N64 Games

[@popthatbeep]

Hogs of war. Games that made me and my cousins giggle and laugh in the middle of the night. Oh the memories

[@sebastiangrimm4472]

Hogs of War was awesome 😄 also total forgot about Vib-Ribbon & Pandemonium 😄

[@mikeedge742]

Completely forgot about nightmare creatures what a game

[@greaterdog601]

My dad still gushes about Pandemonium to this very day. It's an underrated gem, according to him. Gotta try it out someday.

[@jsmith3946]

the funny thing is the rip off the animal game play from a nes game called little Nemo and the dreammaster

[@mehmehmeh123]

PaRappa the rapper.. im shocked it wasn't on this list

[@Dzuno18]

As well as Um Jammer Lammy wasn't on the list

[@Mitro86]

Oh man Incredible Crisis, I remember laughing my ass off with that game but I couldn't recall it's name until now! Thanks Mojo!

[@thinhtruongg9n]

Top best metal slug boss

[@Khoobus]

😂 so accurate

[@dar_thegoat]

When I saw the title, Baldies immediately came to my mind. So glad it was included in the countdown because I would play it for hoursssss

[@ARTSONICFAN990]

Incredible Crisis. I remember playing that game when I was young.

[@ps4games164]

I was playing the demo. It was catching but too hard with the levels further. Have you played Mega Deive Sonic game?

[@undetermined_user]

Rising Zan!! I was almost convinced no one but my childhood friend and I knew about it

[@Bullman422]

I remember Incredible Crisis mentioned in a PS magazine as one of those games just released in Japan and pretty much having no chance in hell of ever coming over here. Nearly a year and a half later though it made the list as coming soon much to the surprise of everyone. Anyway I never thought much of it until I noticed a copy of it at some flea market New!! Overall I loved the wacky humor but boy those stages were challenging. Anyway I still have it and it is still in great shape. Devil Dice was another weird but very fun underrated game especially in multiplayer mode.

[@vintageroller]

love skullmonkeys. one of the best soundtracks to one of the best platformers ever

[@metroidman13]

The animation style of rampage by Midway was creepy so is the pig war game same vibe lol

[@kevinclapson]

Pandemonium was pretty legit. Odd as hell, but a solidly made game.

[@dustinglover2743]

That dance off looks alot like the office characters

[@slanderman3296]

Steel harbinger and johnny bazzzkatoon was the first games I remember getting on ps1

[@faidou9954]

Rising Zan sounds like a character you'd see from a Lupin the 3rd episode.

[@novaknight8579]

I couldn't for the life of me remember incredible crisis thank u!

[@kredenc666]

Hogs of War was amazing, just a bit too hard for me when I played it as one of first games I knew

[@REV1517]

Being and 80'&90's kid I wish someone would have made a "Barnyard Commandos" video game.

[@freddiemolinajr.8397]

good video

[@otgenesis7410]

Love that cowboy accent

[@PLightstar]

Forgot Hogs of War had Rik mayls voice rip to a legend

[@RainWalking]

Parappa the Rappa

[@tracyndiyob162]

incredible crisis looks fun.(like ps1 games with an anime style and like it's if warioware's minigames were being experienced by the main characters themselves before get it together.:3) wish we got a sequel to skullmonkey's as i loved the neverhood and the creator's(my english teacher was friends with him and he used to let me play both games during recess at school/loved the writing when i got to the end.:3) other work catscratch.

[@thevdevalcryon]

Pandemonium is actually a decent game, the 2nd game is a much better game than the 1st one tho.

[@KemuriZen]

Do a list on impressive psp games

[@darkaquaalxehanort9788]

My favorite weird ps1 game was Trap Gunners.

[@iluvwanesworld]

I remember Sheep, the 90s were the best!

[@tkmjees]

When I saw the title of the video, I knew that #1 was going to be Pepsiman.

[@Nov-5062]

but it isn't

[@cwilson2012]

So Zan was out here inspiring Dante...

[@gerardoexber]

Pandemonium!

[@Rapamaru]

Someone made a demake of Bloodborne in the style of Nightmare Creatures,search for it,its pretty cool.

[@qwaH]

no LSD? thought that would be a sure thing

[@snoozy04]

Cho Aniki for the Japanese PS1

[@HomelessBoxDude]

"Kinda seems like your helping the bad guys"

[@FrancescDestefani-gs4wm]

la banchiera che balla e quest'anno il game over, il banchiere centrale che l'anima l'ha venduta per una caramellina da piccolino, c'era pure il detto, le caramelline e gli sconosciuti ... no! qui si vende pure l'anima, l'unica cosa che si ha, per una caramellina.

[@stevensrocks798]

I had Hogs of War, it was good if you persevered but the controls were atrocious, especially combined with the camera.

[@Manic44]

Pandamonium was a great game

[@kevinbourke1847]

I played hogs of war years ago

[@omicronfinger2388]

"The 90s..." game made on 2000. Bruh, how do you believe you??????

[@koosjuh75]

No Hello Mr Domino?

[@erickivannhoebeniteztorres8561]

Hogs of war should be on tour underrated game list. Just saying.

[@Potter5416]

My sister played The incredible crisis

[@shiruotakuno28]

Really? No Ape Escape, Gubble, or Jumping Flash??

[@vicarps]

Where is LSD: Dream Emulator?

[@NarcolepticProphet]

Why does everyone compare bloodborn to any game released before it that has certain mechanics like it? Bloodborn is like Nightmare creatures is the correct term. Otagi would also be the correct game to compare, better than bloodborn In every way.

[@darkcornholio]

If you want more incredible crisis content, go watch videogamedunkey's Oscar winning video, nintendogs plathrough part 3

[@eatmyshorts2024]

Parappa the rapper

[@efilwv1635]

So should we call the game Hogs of War or War Pigs?

[@timhnic6823]

Horned owl!

[@SuperAtlas0]

LSD dream emulator is missing

[@Nov-5062]

too obvious

[@LegendofZee]

I'm guessing rn after 10 seconds into the video that number 1 is that weird game where that developer turned his dream into a game. Edit: I was wrong but that title should really be in here its a pretty crazy title

[@Nov-5062]

LSD Dream Emulator? It's a cool game. I find it kinda upsetting that it's known as "this quirky meme game"

[@LegendofZee]

@@Nov-5062 its always interested me! I've been wanting to play it for myself after seeing all these youtubers play it but I've never gotten around to it

[@BaldiFans45]

Where lsd dream emulator

[@YoMateo.]

Whoever's reading this, i pray that whatever you're going through gets better and whatever you're struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day! Amen

[@Reaperguy67]

You don't mean it since you spam the same thing in multiple videos

[@tracyndiyob162]

thank you. :3

[@OtterloopB]

@@Reaperguy67 Thank you. Glad someone is pointing out how disingenuous this is.

[@Reaperguy67]

@@OtterloopB you are welcome. I literally see this same comment in multiple channels by the way.
