The overheating Playstation thing was only in the very first run or two of consoles if memory serves and not an ongoing problem for years like the PS2 bad DVD drives. Most people did not have to turn their consoles upside down to get them to work outside of they early adopters of the Playstation.

Still have my PSOne since back when they actually had standard RCA output jacks on it. Still works fine, though I haven't really used it since I picked up the PS2 back in 2002.

Great console and it will be missed, but not as much as my Commadore 64

hell yeah guys PSX ruled all, was the one thing that kept me going through my highschool years.

Vagrant Story
Valkyrie Profile
FF9
MGS
Castlevania: SotN (favourite game of all time)

just out of interest anyone who has access to there C:SotN file pleas post your highest acheived game % mine is 204.

i sort of lost interest in gaming after the snes/genesis era. skipped the n64 completely. at my after-prom in 1997, i won a ps1 in a raffle. it got me back into gaming. loved it.

a couple games that stick out for me:

ONE
Poy Poy
SPFII

Anyone have a sales summary for the PS1? Just curious as to how much it sold by region and the game attach ratio etc?

I just brought up "ONE" in the hardest games thread. That game was a technical marvel but tough as hell!

I was always curious about "ONE"...how would it hold up today in terms of control...compared with, say RE4 or Syphon Filter (which I thought was brilliant)?

Shows how much I know. I thought they had stopped production years ago...........
