Tempest Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Just out of curiosity, what was the last PS1 game released? I know they were still releasing budget titles as of early last year so I've lost track. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maibock Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 I was under the impression that they were still releasing titles - I think my local EBGames has new ones for sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted March 29, 2005 Author Share Posted March 29, 2005 STILL???? Amazing... Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 He's right. Every now and then there's a new Disney game, a new EA Sports game, a pinball or puzzle game, so on and so forth. Usually they're at bargain prices - $20 or less (a lot of titles under $10). Michelle and I gave my nephews a PlayStation for Xmas so we're pretty happy that new games keep coming out.

Needles Kane Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I keep seeing new generic puzzle titles every once in a while, and some sports franchises for PS1 have 2004 titles. My local Sam Goody still has Twisted Metal 4 and FFVII brand new (!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalton4life Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I think it's mainly companies I never heard off releasing puzzle, card and sports games. But I see some store selling some of these newish PS1 games for $9.99. The last newish big name PS1 game I saw was Madden 2004 in a Circuit City today. It looks like Fifa 2005 came out late last year but that may have not been a US release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent X Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 The last new PlayStation game release I saw was FIFA 2005, and it was released here in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atarifever Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I saw a Dragonball Z game of some kind with a copyright from 2004. That isn't a sports franchise or a puzzle game (and that's all I thought they were releasing in the past few years). Not the newest, but it surprised me to see it.

Lost Monkey Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I saw a Dragonball Z game of some kind with a copyright from 2004. That isn't a sports franchise or a puzzle game (and that's all I thought they were releasing in the past few years). Not the newest, but it surprised me to see it. That was a re-issue of a 1996 game.

cimerians Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 What was the first game? Ridge Racer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK WOMBLE Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 What was the first game? Ridge Racer? Id be surprised, I might have guessed crash bandicoot or wipeout but really i have no idea, I recall crash being my first game for the PS but I didnt get it exactly on release day here... also, it would depend where the console came out first, Japan I suppose..

Albert Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 What was the first game? Ridge Racer? It was certainly one of them--I think I still have the copy I purchased, in one of those big, plastic cases that Sony eventually abandoned. With a piece of foam inside to keep the DVD from popping out of its holder. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 What was the first game? Ridge Racer? Battle Arena Toshinden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquid_sky Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 What was the first game? Ridge Racer? Battle Arena Toshinden From a final code perspective or from a launch perspective? I can remember picking up the PSX with Ridge Racer about 2 weeks after it was released and was drooling all over the floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cimerians Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 What was the first game? Ridge Racer? Battle Arena Toshinden That could very well be. I simply read so many mags on the Dec. 1994 release in Japan that featured Ridge Racer, so I figured that was the first. I almost forgot about those boxes. There were some crappy games initially for the system but man did it take off after that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Nope, the first USA Playstation game released was Total Eclipse Turbo, a bit over a week before the system was available. I remember it well (even though I stuck with Saturn until the first price drop), but in case you don't believe me, here's some corroboration: http://www.vidgames.com/ps/software/release.html#1995 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferris Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I just started "collecting" PlayStation 1 systems and titles this week. Once PSP came out somehow my vision changed and I started looking at PS1 as classic and colelctable. If anyone has a copy of RidgeRacer like how Al described (big plastic or cardboard case) that they are willing to part with please send me a PM. Or for that matter WipeOut, Tekken, Demolition Derby, or Twisted Metal. These were all the "Fabulous Eleven" titles of the PSone as they were early releases. If anyone has them new in the shrinkwrap I'd really make a great trade :-) Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much anything PS1 is easily available for cheap on ebay but it's more fun to find rare stuff in the wild since is still possible but it's getting harder everyday. TRU near me had a PS1/LCD mini kiosk 2 weeks ago but it was gone today. My rare PS1 purchase today. Star Wars - Master Teras Kasi. It a decent 3d fighter and I think it's the only Star Wars Universe based fighting game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted March 30, 2005 Author Share Posted March 30, 2005 I don't think there is any way I could collect for the PSX. There are just too many games. It would be like collecting for the 2600 if the games cost $10+ each. Besides, I just don't see the PSX as 'classic' yet. I'm more a Saturn fan anyway...

Lord Helmet Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I bougt Ridge Racer, Battle Arena Toshinden and Mortal Kombat 3 at the PS1 launch, so they were release titles to be sure. They are actually some of my more prized PS1 games, since they all came in the giant jewel case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriel Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 What was the first game? Ridge Racer? I remember the launch fairly well. On launch day, Battle Arena Toshinden and Ridge Racer were definitely available. And I think that was it. Extra controllers and memory cards were not available for the first week. I bought Toshinden with the system, then went back the next day and bought Ridge Racer as well. Mortal Kombat 3 was definitely not a launch title, but it was much anticipated. I think it came one or two months after the launch of the console. It's hard to imagine now, but MK3 was a VERY BIG DEAL, and it was being called a PS1 exclusive at the time. I forget where Cyber Sled falls in there. I doubt it was a launch title, because I certainly would have purchased it first if it were. I think it was released within a week of launch. (Cyber Sled is the only one of those early titles I bought which I still own.) The next couple of months were a flood of titles. Tekken, Warhawk, Twisted Metal, Demolition Derby. I worked a lot of overtime in order to afford the few games I bought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Helmet Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Ah, I stand corrected on the MK3 thing...I thought I bought it at launch. I must lump those 3 together since they are all in the same style of box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mental Vortex Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I bought a copy of Madden 2005 for my PS1, so they are definitely still making games. As much as I'd like to, I can't afford a PS2 right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagWarlord Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 Dragonball GT:Final Bout I just bought this new at Best Buy for $15. Boy, am I glad I never spent the $100 for the original when I wanted it Great game! Still releasing games...damn. Thats the only thing I like about Sony- they don't just drop thier fans and move on, they still release stuff for the people who still have PS1's. I think thats really cool.

The newest game I have been able to find is FIFA 2005 & that was actually released in October last year I believe. Does anyone know any different? Even if that was the last release 10 years is a very impressive run for a console today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
