Recommendations for SNES and/or PlayStation 1 games
« on: October 08, 2021, 08:00:42 PM »
Don't really know where exactly I'm going with this thread, but I started to replay my SNES and original PlayStation recently, and just wanted to hear any recommendations for good games to play.

I mean it's kind of a weird question because I know a lot of the best games for both systems already (Contra III, Mega Man X, FF7, Metal Gear Solid, etc.) but if there are any others that I should check out (or maybe you've got a copy for sale) then I'm down to hear them!

Thanks, Sneak! Earthbound is really hard to find and expensive, but it must be worth it based on the hype.

I never really knew too much about Zombies Ate My Neighbors, I'll have to check it out As well as Super Bomberman, thanks coldbrew!

Parasite Eve sounds like it's really fun as well. My TV got fixed yesterday and even the repairmen saw my PlayStation and said that Parasite Eve and Twisted Metal were really fun.

Thank you! I played Parappa and UmJammer Lammy way back, those were fun! I'll check out those others for sure. I've heard Super Ghosts n Ghouls is hard to find, but it's probably worth it!

Just get one of those roms and play it on a computer.  I think it’s on that snes mini thing they made like a year or so ago. 

I actually lucked into a copy back in the day at the bargain bin in funcoland for like $8 or something.  I didn’t even know what it was when I bought it, I just liked the label, and it turned out to be my favorite game ever.

Had a dope Indiana Jones game. If I still had my old PlayStation I’d play that. Had a grappling hook and all sorts of crafty shit. Don’t remember the exact name unfortunately

@Hinna @willphansbiggestfan Thanks, dudes! I've got MGS but I haven't played/beaten it in like sixteen years so I'm hyped to play it again. Just waiting on the memory card, dual shock controller, and power cable.  I'll look into the Indiana Jones game as well!

SNES: Jaws, California games, Metal Gear, Duck Tales, Duck Hunt, Mario bros. 3

PS1: Metal gear solid, Thrasher: Skate and Destroy, Xenogears, Silent Hill, Resident Evil series (I think 1 and 2 are one PS1, maybe just RE1)

@pugmaster @matty_c @Easy Slider Much appreciated! I was checking out Xenogears the other day, seems like it'll be fun. Will review all these others as well! Haven't played Donkey Kong in so long.

Haha MGS was my shit back in the day, I had the guide and everything. I beat RE2 and RE3 as well, BUT never the first Resident Evil so I'm psyched on finding that one. The more I read your posts, the more I'm convinced that I need more Donkey Kong in my life!

Here are some other PS1 titles I thought of that are worthwhile to check out.

Fear effect (there is a Fear effect 2, but I never played it yet)
Cool boarders 2
Dave Mirra series (definitely has some rockin' tunes to nostalgia your brains out)
Championship motorcross featuring Ricky Charmichael (racing and freestyle)
Nightmare Creatures (there is a Nightmare Creatures 2, but I haven't played it yet)
Syphon Filter 2 (there is a Syphon Filter 3, but I haven't played it yet)
Tomb Raider series was pretty fun

I heard Dino Crisis is worth playing

I have Tekken 3, it's so good!

I also want to try out a game called Star Ocean, I remember hearing that was a solid game.

Dino Crisis, Chrono Cross, Tenchu, I've heard good things about those as well. All of these suggestions are gold!

  My old roommates and I would do speed runs taking turns m, we had all played the game so many times we could just hand off to eachother and beat the game pretty quick

SNES - Secret of Mana, Chrono Trigger, Earthbound (already mentioned but that shit is so fun), Terranigma, Breath of Fire.

All relatively hard games to find or expensive, but are so fun and have a lot of replay value.

I really want to check out Chrono Trigger, heard nothing but good things. Never heard of Terranigma before!

Dude I got to the final boss of that game, didn't beat it, the next day the game had erased all my progress since it's old. I was pissed to no end. But this winter it's redemption time!
