Test Game Bg3 Shadowheart

What is Lorem Ipsum?Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.Why do we use it?It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

Einhander [TEST]

Einhander [TEST]

Shoot-'em-ups are definitely outside of Square’s RPG comfort zone, but that didn’t stop it from making a real impact in the genre. Einhänder is a decidedly conventional shoot-’em-up, but one that has been produced to a very high quality with great visuals and strong game design enhanced by the combo-based score system and modular Gunpod power-ups, useful for taking down the big bosses. There are some really great shoot-’em-ups on the PlayStation – R-Type Delta, G-Darius and Gradius Gaiden to name a few – but we’ve highlighted Einhander because it’s wholly original, rather than developing on the legacy of an existing series.

Tomb Raider [TEST]

Tomb Raider [TEST]

While there are five PlayStation games to choose from, it’s Lara Croft’s first adventure that really does the trick for us. There was simply nothing quite like Tomb Raider when it first launched in 1996 – that combination of exploration, puzzle-solving, and gunplay in a 3D environment was wholly unique. It’s also quite a different experience from its successors. Though it features memorable set pieces like the famous dinosaur encounter, the original Tomb Raider is more reliant on mental challenges than action, and sticks closely to the theme of tomb raiding rather than venturing out into the open air.

Gran Turismo 2 [TEST]

Gran Turismo 2 [TEST]

Back in the late Nineties, it was hard to imagine how Polyphony Digital could have possibly improved upon the original Gran Turismo. The game was by far the biggest and most realistic racing game available on not only the PlayStation, but any console, and players had gone wild for it. The simple solution was to just have more of everything. While the racing felt pretty similar and the astounding graphics remained, Gran Turismo 2 features more cars and more tracks to race them on – including the brand new inclusion of rally tracks, introducing off-road competition to the series.

Final Fantasy Tactics [TEST]

Final Fantasy Tactics [TEST]

As one of the biggest names in the Japanese RPG landscape, Final Fantasy’s foray into strategy RPG territory was hotly anticipated, and it didn’t disappoint. This one dispenses with the high budget 3D spectacle and sci-fi leanings of mainline PlayStation counterparts like Final Fantasy VII and VIII, instead offering up more complex battles featuring 2D characters on isometric 3D stages, with job classes that call back to the more traditional fantasy roots of the series. Though combat is a big deal here the plot hasn’t been skimped on, with a depth and maturity that belies the cuteness of the character designs.

Crash Bandicoot: Warped [TEST]

Crash Bandicoot: Warped [TEST]

As the unofficial mascot of the PlayStation, you just knew the bonkers bandicoot would show up here. The first two games became famous for their high-quality platforming, across 3D into-the-screen sections as well as more traditional 2.5D areas. Rather than trying to reinvent the wheel, this third game just adds heaps of extra stuff to do. The game offers motorbike rides, jetski sections, underwater adventures, and more, all with the same excellent presentation you’d expect. That’s all great for newcomers, and the challenge is still there for fanatics, with some truly testing time trials to tackle for 100% completion.

Bishi Bashi Special [TEST]

Bishi Bashi Special [TEST]

If you need a multiplayer game that anybody can pick up and play, this mini-game collection should definitely be in your library. Bishi Bashi Special is a compilation of Super Bishi Bashi and Hyper Bishi Bashi, containing 85 different button-bashing challenges with a variety of bizarre themes, ranging from kicking mobsters to chucking custard pies at your wedding guests. Up to three controllers are supported at once so you’ll need a Multitap to get the most out of the game, but if you’ve got a larger session going on everybody can still get involved, as eight players can take part in the party mode.

Driver: You Are the Wheelman [TEST]

Driver: You Are the Wheelman [TEST]

Reflections might have accidentally created one of the hardest tutorial stages ever, but getting past it was well worth it. Inspired by the great car chase movies of the Seventies, Driver gives you plenty of different driving missions to take on as an undercover cop, from getaways to tailing other cars. What makes Driver unique on the PlayStation is that its four city environments – Miami, San Francisco, Los Angeles and New York – are proper open worlds with plenty of freedom to choose your own route, which is crucial to making your evasion of the cops feel organic and satisfying.

Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee [TEST]

Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee [TEST]

The very first Oddworld game put you in the role of Abe, a poor meat factory worker who accidentally discovers that he and his Mudokon buddies are about to be turned into tasty treats. Your job is to liberate as many of your fellow enslaved Mudokons as you can, by ordering them about, telepathically controlling dangerous enemies, throwing grenades around, and more. It’s something of a hybrid puzzle platformer, with the cinematic ambition of Another World and the character management of Lemmings, but with the added bonus of some excellent pre-rendered visuals and rather dark humor. Also, Abe can fart.

PaRappa The Rapper [TEST]

PaRappa The Rapper [TEST]

Apart from being a brilliant source of canine rhymes, PaRappa The Rapper is a poster child for the creative, whimsical side of the PlayStation. As well as being a whole generation’s introduction to the concept of music games, the colorful cartoon graphics, strange paper-thin characters and bizarre situations that PaRappa gets into are a world apart from anything else on the system. Plus, PaRappa himself is perhaps the most relatable character ever to star in a videogame – after all, his main concerns are getting a cute partner, learning how to drive, and having a desperately needed poo. We’ve all been there.

R4: Ridge Racer Type 4 [TEST]

R4: Ridge Racer Type 4 [TEST]

The original Ridge Racer was emblematic of early Nineties arcade excess and was a major hit at the PlayStation’s launch. Player expectations had changed by the late Nineties though, so Namco shifted its approach to the series to match. Where the original was a loud, colorful game that you played for a good time, not a long time, Ridge Racer Type 4 offered a relaxing contrast with pastel-colored skies and a more relaxed soundtrack. The excellent drift-heavy racing remained though, and the game had some fun stories, plus more cars and tracks to play with than any of its predecessors.

Silent Hill [TEST]

Silent Hill [TEST]

Other survival horror games might have been bloody and even tense, but Silent Hill was one of the very first to be genuinely unsettling. A lot of that was down to the psychological horror approach adopted by Konami’s developers, but equally, they did a lot to make the small things matter. Sure, Silent Hill might be using fog to cover up a limited draw distance like so many other games of the era, but few of them incorporated it as an atmospheric touch in quite the same way. And that Dual Shock heartbeat when you’re low on health? Brrr.

Spider-Man [TEST]

Spider-Man [TEST]

Neversoft’s first try with your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man really stood out from the crowd, and not just because it was a great superhero game in an age when they were far from common. The combat and stage design are solid regardless of the license, but the development team really nailed all the great things about Marvel’s hero. Whether you’re swinging between buildings, ensnaring bad guys with a web shot, or even just hearing Spidey's little quips when he handily defeats another grunt, Spider-Man is a satisfying experience for both long-term fans of the character and players who just want a great action-adventure game.

Spyro the Dragon [TEST]

Spyro the Dragon [TEST]

It seems like a silly question looking back, but there was once a real debate over whether or not the PlayStation could actually do a 3D platform game – a proper one, with big open stages, not the corridors and caverns of Crash Bandicoot and Croc. Spyro The Dragon was the emphatic answer to that question. Not only could the PlayStation do a 3D platform game, but it could do one very well indeed. It’s not the hardest PlayStation game you’ll play, but the locations are wonderful to explore, and controlling Spyro feels great, so you’ll enjoy breezing through to the end.

Stealth Assassins [TEST]

Stealth Assassins [TEST]

Is it fair to say that Tenchu was one of the first authentic ninja games ever? We think so. While the shadowy assassins had never been short of videogame representation, they had typically appeared in action games. By requiring the player to exercise caution and stealthily assassinate targets, Tenchu really re-examined what ninja games should be, and played a part in the growing stealth-action genre. The game offered a great deal of freedom in terms of carrying out your objectives, but was not for the impatient – observation was key as you tried to identify the perfect time to strike. Getting it right is still a thrilling experience.

Street Fighter Alpha 3 [TEST]

Street Fighter Alpha 3 [TEST]

The PlayStation version of the final game in the Street Fighter Alpha series felt replicated the excellent arcade original faithfully, though with some concessions to the console’s limited memory. If it had simply done that, that would be one thing. But this version did so much more, adding new characters to complete the inclusion of the Super Street Fighter II cast, as well as a World Tour mode that allowed players to customize their characters via fighting challenges. It felt absolutely stuffed with content back in 1999, and remains satisfying for both lone players and those of a more competitive nature.

Tekken 3 [TEST]

The Tekken series was the premier 3D fighting franchise on Sony’s console from the moment it arrived, and the third installment was easily the pinnacle of Namco’s achievements with the series in that era. The core fighting action was refined, with animations that more naturally flowed into one another, and the visuals were better thanks to the high-resolution mode and more solid character models. That wasn’t all though, as Tekken 3 was packed with things to do. There were plenty of unlockables from bizarre characters like Gon to odd modes like Tekken Ball, plus the scrolling beat-’em-up Tekken Force game.

Time Crisis [TEST]

Time Crisis [TEST]

If you were being shot at by a horde of really angry people, you’d want to hide behind something for a bit of protection. It seems so obvious, and yet light gun games just didn’t let you do it until Namco literally changed the game by introducing the cover pedal in Time Crisis. This PlayStation version is an excellent likeness for the arcade classic, but what really puts it over the top is the inclusion of a totally original second scenario set in a hotel, which is exclusive to this version. It justifies the purchase of a G-Con gun by itself.

Tomb Raider [TEST]

Tomb Raider [TEST]

While there are five PlayStation games to choose from, it’s Lara Croft’s first adventure that really does the trick for us. There was simply nothing quite like Tomb Raider when it first launched in 1996 – that combination of exploration, puzzle-solving, and gunplay in a 3D environment was wholly unique. It’s also quite a different experience from its successors. Though it features memorable set pieces like the famous dinosaur encounter, the original Tomb Raider is more reliant on mental challenges than action, and sticks closely to the theme of tomb raiding rather than venturing out into the open air.

Twisted Metal 2: World Tour [TEST]

Twisted Metal 2: World Tour [TEST]

Whether you were speeding through Hong Kong’s railway tunnels or blowing up the Eiffel Tower, there was no doubt that expanding the car combat to a global scale was a great move for the Twisted Metal series. As well as these more complex and expansive arenas, the second game in the series introduced some iconic vehicles such as Axel and Mr Slam, as well as a co-op mode that allowed players to tackle the tournament together. The only downside was missing out on the endings, which could only be viewed by solo combatants – they remain memorably, deliciously evil today.
