Top Ten Underrated PS1 Games

[@contrabandresearch8409]

The PS1 had so many good games that I'm still finding out about ones I've never heard of.

[@thatvideogamesshow]

It’s a console that just keeps on giving, even all these years later!

[@TucBroder]

The trick these days is to find a working one...

[@JacaboBlanco]

Same. And I was that age where I had no money when ps1 was out. So even a lot of the great games I knew of, I never owned. Love experiencing these dope classics now while we wait for good current Gen games

[@thomasbale8509]

Alundra currently plays and looks amazing, one of the best PS1 games I have ever played

[@thatvideogamesshow]

Totally agree!

[@DeltathRiylaan]

Alundra was a game almost no one knew about when it was new. But I checked out every Working Designs game at the time.

[@bluesnoopz]

Alundra is on the ps3 and vitas psn store. Its only like 7 dollars i think.

[@illuz1oN44]

The soundtrack is soooo good too

[@InterferenciasRG]

Man, your videos are just so good, I freaking love your lists and the way you describe every game. Your channel is amazing. Thanks to you I'm filling my psvita with a ton of games

[@thatvideogamesshow]

That comment means a lot man 🙂 thanks for watching!

[@samsoulee]

May I add : Silent Bomber, Deception3, Soukyugurentai, Star Gladiator, Syndicate Wars, Tobal2. All of them are still enjoyable by today standards, especially on a psvita ! :)

[@thatvideogamesshow]

Great suggestions there! Loved Tobal 2 back on the day.

[@memebump7612]

Silent Bomber was amazing!

[@DonWafle]

Silent bomber is such an amazing Game ❤️

[@Nogitec]

When i did see Alundra on list i did instatly press like button. :D

[@mvpheat]

Dude Tekken 2 opening music. Tekken 2 is my favorite game intro.

[@thatvideogamesshow]

The best opening ever!

[@samsoulee]

Not Soulblade ???

[@Blas4ublasphemy]

You make great hidden gem lists, even if I've usually played them all. For PS1 I'll add RC De GO, Incredible Crisis, One, Tomba and The Italian Job.

Out of all the games shown on this video, Alundra and Vandal Hearts were the only ones I knew about. Damn, the PS1 has a billion cool games! Your videos are a goldmine, man! I've been updating my personal "games to buy" list thanks to your recommendations. Thanks for showcasing these games!

[@ryno464]

I have only heard of 2 of those games. Good work!

[@thatvideogamesshow]

Cheers Ry ❤️

[@elhafo6925]

Great video, thanks for sharing!

[@wolves_blade4788]

Final Resistance was such a good game when I was a kid.

[@That_Handle]

3:15 - Trick'N Snowboarder has bonus Capcom characters, advertises a way to make your own snowboarding action video based on your run, supports a mouse controller for editing the logo - like R4: Ridge Racer Type 4.decal editor via the garage - and, also like R4 Ridge Racer, supports PS1 system link for a pair of PS1s supplying output to a couple screens much like Cool Boarders 2. Of course, have to mention this is from the NTSC point of view so regions might differ. ..... 6:18 - an interesting concept with the ~psionic energy in Disruptor. If there was only one thing I wish the fevelopers had done it would have been to a add mouse controller support for looking, firing, etc. in tandem with a controller for movement, etc. - much like Quake II and Alien Resurrection for PS1. Still a good FPS.

[@memebump7612]

I'd like to recommend a few. Hogs of War, Team Buddies, Demolition Racer and Jade Cocoon.

[@DeltathRiylaan]

Another human who knows about Team Buddies!!!

[@bluesnoopz]

@@DeltathRiylaan team buddies is too expensive for a lot of people to know about it

[@DeltathRiylaan]

@@bluesnoopz It wasn't when it was new. Picked it up the first month for $20 in the discount aisle at K-Mart. They put a lot of lesser known games right there.

[@Xehemoth]

OMG Vandal Hearts! I have been trying to remember what that game was called. I had it when I was younger but lost it after I went in to the army. (Lost everything I had actually. Family really sucks sometimes.) I am glad you listed it. I loved that cheeky, shameless FFTactics clone :D Forsaken was a lot of fun too if you could get over the nightmarish controls.

[@VendonJura]

If I am not missing it then Eternal Eyes would be a good choise for this list. It's an amazingly good game.

[@va8157]

Just a suggestion, but can you make playlists based on the system? Love your top ten lists btw! Keep em coming

[@Chocoburger]

This is a great video and I'll be checking out a bunch of the games mentioned, but there is one thing I would recommend to improve the video. It would be nice to mention if a game is exclusive to a specific territory, such as Rapid Reload being release in EU and JP (as Gunner's Heaven), but never released in NA. It would help people find these games easier if they knew which regions they were released in as well as different regional names if applicable.

[@lukass64]

This was a surprise, I mean I thought I knew most of the good games of the PS1 library. Yoyo, Trickn, and Final Resistance came of left field. Awesome list. I feel like there are too many hidden gem vids that cover most of the same games, it's the list that covers new games you haven't herd of is what a real hidden Gem. Vandal Hearts I knew about but you were probably the first to mention it in a hidden gem vid. Thanks!

[@alvarocn7996]

Hi! Really like your videos! Any chance you could list the games you talk about on the video info? Thanks and awesome video 😁

[@MaryluxVanoria]

Nice list. PO'ED for ps1 is one of my favourite and is a very uncommon ps1 title.

[@FelipeFerreira-wk5nv]

Looney Tunes sheep raider is such an underrated game it doesn't even feature in underrated games lists xD One of the best and most fun ps1 games IMO and so many people don't know about it or have some kind of preconception about it.

[@ChaossX77]

2:04 Impressive. You managed to go that entire segment without actually saying the game's name aloud.

[@bgcorporation]

You know what I've noticed? Japan got all of the great Fighter games, and the great Shooting (SHMUP) games. I see tons and tons of hidden gems and most of them tend to be Japanese release only.

[@volkte37]

Good video! I must admit I find Alundra is actually overrated. It's pretty good but feels stretched out and often boring. Also it's just frustrating to play and never felt with it for me. But it is pretty good still, but it doesn't touch the best Zelda games.

[@klaudijevtrkaciteritorij4301]

C12 and Disruptor,2 games who i need finish,good games when i been so close,but both servers has blocked me on laptop

[@quietdignityandgrace]

Colony Wars, any of them, severely underrated

[@ronnieriveros4206]

What is the background music when you mentioned alundra game?

[@irregularmana6216]

There are so many you can't just do like 10. It has to be 10 underrated RPG, shooters, fighter's, platformer, action/adventure, racing and puzzle. Also IN THE HUNT!!! I love this game

[@jmanx24]

Really enjoy these videos and this is no exception, well done sir

[@thatvideogamesshow]

I appreciate that, thanks a lot mate 🙂

[@Crazyoldman84]

Final residence was the last game i bought for my ps1. Its a great game. 👍

[@lancelude]

Vandal Hearts is a great game. Played it through at least 5 times

[@Sweetestsadist]

First game I thought of was Vandal Hearts. It deserves the same level of recognition as FF Tactics.

[@wingnut857]

It would of been nice to have seen Omega Boost in that list. One of the best mech shooters of its time but never got the recognition it deserves. Such a shame.

[@SWIFTO_SCYTHE]

[@marcofernandezgonzalez2760]

Very interesting List :) I've only played Alundra - an amazing (and hard as hell) game - and Vandal Hearts (a truly underrated tactical jrpg; better avoiding the second one)

[@waltersobchak7275]

Never avoid just as good

[@ReaveIdono]

@@waltersobchak7275 Agreed. Both of the Vandal Hearts games are good. Now the one on 360 and PS3 I never played.

[@ReaveIdono]

@@waltersobchak7275 Well I'm glad I could. I may turn on one of my old systems and buy it. I wish it was backwards compatible on Xbox. Would make it so much easier.

[@waltersobchak7275]

@@ReaveIdono I got 3 corona motherboard slims 360’s. One is the 360 slim elite. I just got it off Ebay for $35. Another of the 360’s is an RGH hacked. It is awesome for retro. Came with a ton of emulators on it. Also a lot of 360 shooter games on there as well, but I have never played a shooter so who knows if I’ll like it. Hey another couple games like VH are Vanguard Bandits for PS1. It’s mech based. Another is one of my absolute favorites Front Mission3. Both use the strategic grid like VH.

[@oyoyong]

Always look forward to your videos, love the picks as usual

[@thatvideogamesshow]

Thanks buddy! Glad you enjoy them 🙂

[@wayneomega]

I will suggest Shaolin, that game allowed to fight simultaneously 8 players if you have 2 multitaps, it was incredibly fun to play.

[@aiodensghost8645]

That's nuts!!

[@yiorgo187]

Some of these are well knowed and very respected but I did find out about one I never heard of.. puzzle park/gussun paradise is one that I will have to check out!

[@moneymatt536]

Final resistance is basically what resistance the ps3 series turn into. But it went from 3rd person to first person.

[@nicholasdevereux8692]

I played this video in hopes to see Alundra :) first game mentioned

[@Uaitdevil]

rapid reload was my first ps1 game, i mean, i rented it a couple of times when i only had demo disks at home, and then decided to buy it directly [i was very little, so i had to save some money] heavily underrated, but also very difficult game, so i get that it may didnt sold well as it should. seriously, i finished the game YEARS after buying it, the game has few levels, but one of those was a huge roadblock for me PS: Axel and Ruka makes a cameo in wild arms 2 if i remember correctly

[@maidenlessnerdz5558]

Guys, I can't remember the name of the game, it's like Twisted Metal but on-foot instead, I can't remember much, I remember wizard old man, monster or alien, cyborg or robot, giant gorilla or something and man with dual pistols, I think it's free for all deathmatch, 3rd person camera view, did you guys remember this game?

[@GabrielLopes-oq1uw]

Man you really oversell a lot of these games

[@rpgaholic8202]

Alundra, the puzzle game disguised as a Zelda-clone. Why? Because if you die enough times, the game gives you the best weapon in the game and is like "Focus on the puzzles, my little gamer."

[@DeltathRiylaan]

Vandal Hearts is a good game, but Vandal Hearts 2 is a hundred times better.
