With the launch of PlayStation Plus, Sony’s new subscription service designed to rival Xbox’s Game Pass, many of these classic PS1 titles are going to be making their way to current-gen consoles.
It paved the way for the PlayStation brand, leading to millions of consoles sold worldwide and three more successful home consoles thereafter. Many of these beloved series began on the original PlayStation and still feature new entries to this day. It featured some of the most important and influential games of all time, from Metal Gear Solid to Spyro the Dragon, Crash Bandicoot, Gran Turismo, and Final Fantasy VII. Ranging from novel-length, narrative-driven RPGs to fast and furious races to mind-bending puzzles, games for the original PlayStation offered a wildly diverse lineup over its 11-year production run. And we all know that the success of this console has now led to the PS4 and PS5. Not only was it home to some of the most impressive games at the time, but it also offered a convenient way to play music using CDs, which was quite novel in the mid-90s. In 1995, the system was released worldwide, and it took gamers by storm. In 1994, the PlayStation launched in Japan, giving its players a way to enjoy beautiful (at the time) 3D games using discs instead of the expensive price tag that came with cartridges. It was the result of a canceled collaboration between Sony and Nintendo, leading to somewhat of a feud in the mid-90s. The original PlayStation almost didn’t happen.
