                        Games In The Sack


    When you wanted a game of your favourite cartoon, movie, sport or arcade conversion PlayStation had them in abundance families with young children could buy there kids The Rugrats or you could play a Star Wars game and kick a ball around in FIFA or was there a Ridge Racer game that you saw in the arcades and dreamed of playing it at home. I remember on the official PlayStation magazine there were demo discs and on one of the issues there was a demo of Ridge Racer and playing it in those days was like you were given the actual arcade versions code they way everything was identical.

Look above and tell me if you can spot any real difference there isn't is there....
That's what PlayStation One could do you with 32 bit power hence gamers been so pleased when there favourite arcade hit came home in tact faithful too everything they had seen whilst at the arcade.

I was happy when they released Resident Evil I'm still playing the original today and then cult games came out like Silent Hill and it was crazy. In total over 2500 games have been made for PSOne in it's lifetime. Giving players a vast choice of gameplay was a policy Sony had with the public were as companies like Nintendo were conscious of what was going out on the shelf and only if they'd passed the Nintendo Seal Of Quality. Yes PlayStation gave birth to everything we see today with Xbox One S and PlayStation 4 Pro. I'm so happy that PlayStation One happened and every opportunity it's given developers to make there dream game come alive. Sony had that magic touch with the gamers and it's held onto it up until today as it still leads the way for gamers of a new generation each time I wonder what we're going to see with PlayStation 5 in the next three years. I thank everything Sega Saturn did as well to keep the market healthy till Nintendo released N64 to an expecting world. All these machines have paved the way to the billion dollar industry today. The Sega Saturn remains a nice collectors console with it's obscurities that were exclusive to the machine i.e Panzer Dragon Zwei and Daytona USA also it was the playing ground for Sega's arcade hits like Virtua Fighter and some pretty strange Sonic games of that era, obviously the N64 was a expensive machine to develop for with games been produced to cartridge and you could say it was a fine machine for Sony to compete against where else would you get Zelda, Mario Goldeneye & Perfect Dark. But producing for Sony's 32 bit baby was cheaper and it was easy to code for with accessible hardware that developers were happy to work with. Because of this at the time N64 was just too expensive to develop for leaving it's European library rather short. The PlayStation been your best friend for all the best games and so many titles to choose from at a cheaper price I think at the time PSOne games were £40.00 and N64 games been £60.00 which is really expensive.
