Top 10 Games Sony Should Include On The Playstation Classic


we’re going back in time like it’s 1999
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
ten games sony needs to include on the
mini playstation classic before we begin
we publish new content every day so be
sure to subscribe to our channel and
ring the bell to get notified about our
latest videos for this one we’re looking
at the games that help to find a
generation on the ps1 and made us fall
in love with blocky polygons
pre-rendered backgrounds and yes even
load times there were a few highly
innovative games we would have loved to
include namely ape escape but since the
console won’t be supporting DualShock
controllers we reluctantly had to leave
number ten our top ten ps1 games list
snake there’s an elevator there you can
take up to the ground you’ll just have
to wait for the elevator to come down
this list was published back in 2014 and
we still stand by it today which makes
it a quick way to mention more games we
think should be on the PS classic into
one spot cheating hardly there are fifty
more spots to fill on Sony’s nostalgia
box so we figured we give you a few
extra entries free of charge Sony has
already announced that Final Fantasy 7
will be on the classic despite at
getting a remake sometime soon so it
doesn’t appear that plans to re-release
remaster or even remake games exclude
them from being included that’s good
news for Resident Evil 2 fans and lovers
[Applause]
number 9 Crash Bandicoot trilogy as
Final Fantasy 7 proves just because it’s
being re-released doesn’t mean it won’t
be included so the addition of crash is
just a no-brainer and why settle for one
when we can have all three he’s
considered the system’s mascot after all
so he deserves special treatment with
last year’s release of the insane
trilogy being well received on multiple
systems the original versions of the
game could make for an interesting
comparison for die-hard Crash fans for
people who aren’t fat diehard and
skipped the remastered collection it
would be a great way to relive the
classic platformer just as you remember
I have brought you here to recover the
crystals before they do so number eight
[Music]
there’s no such thing as too much of a
good thing so that’s why we’re adding
another Final Fantasy title to the list
in Final Fantasy Tactics the game had
more in common with a Fire Emblem series
than it did with squares traditional RPG
franchise so it’s different enough to
include without feeling too similar to
Final Fantasy 7 it’s also seen as
several re-releases but that won’t stop
it from potentially being one of the
highlights of the PS classic and another
RPG to help Pat out the consoles
number seven Parappa the rapper are you
ready young one I shall give you my best
we’d be remiss if we left off the
ultra-cute
rapping puppy that helped introduce
rhythm games to home consoles back in
the late 90s would we even have guitar
hero or rock band today if parappa
hadn’t rhymed his way into our hearts
with his kid-friendly beats about
cooking dinner and passing his driver’s
test the sheer level of innovation this
game brought to the ps1 back in the day
is more than enough reason for it to be
included on this list but we really just
want to hear chop chop master onions
track one more time six tomb raider
welcome to my home I’ll take you on a
guided tour sure it may be clunky to
play with his tank controls and may look
like a bit like a bunch of squares
rectangles and circles dancing together
in unison but it’s often cited as one of
the best video games ever made it was
one of the first titles to introduce us
to huge 3d worlds and it gave us one of
the most memorable characters in all of
gaming so there’s no way we couldn’t
include it try to imagine the video game
landscape without Lara Croft
go ahead we’ll wait you can’t and with
shadow of the Tomb Raider released just
last month what better time to revisit
number 5 meda evil
[Music]
this title is also getting the
remastered treatment soon but it would
make a perfect fit on the PS classic to
allow fans of the series a chance to run
through the original environments once
more as sir Daniel Fortescue before
seeing the game upgraded on the ps4 with
its quirky visuals based on Tim Burton’s
The Nightmare Before Christmas and is
gameplay inspired by role-playing
adventure games like the Zelda franchise
it’s the perfect mix of fun and
adventure sure the camera and controls
will be rough but that just comes with
the territory of games released back in
the late 90s but it’s also part of their
charm now come on in the Morty old hags
lived here once unholy far as burning
all night while they brewed up
unspeakable Mac in their coal runs
this entry in the beloved Resident Evil
series was designed to be more
action-oriented than the first two but
the addition of the raging hulking
nemesis was more than enough to
absolutely scare the bejesus out of us
then and now we’re sure we’re not the
only ones who continually thought we
were hearing the word stars coming from
outside your bedroom door in a monstrous
growl while trying to sleep at night yet
we continued to play and love this title
anyway sleep be damned it also saw the
return of Jill Valentine and continued
her story from the first entry we’ll
have to finish this later
believe it or not we’re only here to
rescue the civilians number three Dino
[Music]
the same team that brought us the
original Resident Evil series also
brought us this classic series Dino
crisis shares very similar aesthetics
and gameplay elements to its sister
zombie series but unlike Resident Evil
this series has unfortunately gone
dormant over the years so if there ever
was an ideal time to bring back Regina
and all her Dino ass-kicking glory the
PS classic seems like a no-brainer Plus
[Music]
number two odd world
this game impressed a whole lot of folks
who weren’t expecting it back in 1997
receiving many awards in the process
like the e3 showstopper award from
GamePro along with garnering much
critical success sure it’s hard as hell
and only being allowed to say that
greatly spaced out checkpoints makes it
even harder but hey we love a challenge
and also the plethora of game guys
available for the title nowadays would
surely help reduce some of the
frustration that comes with the game
over 20 years ago also we get to see a
Abe’s lovely face again and that’s one
weirdly cute mug we can’t get enough of
I was Employee of the Year now I’m dead
meat before we unveil our top pick here
the fourth game in the crash series took
a slightly different approach to the now
classic platforming gameplay of the
first three entries and we couldn’t have
been more thankful back in 1999 as
PlayStation fans because we finally got
our long-awaited answer to Nintendo’s
Mario Kart couch multiplayer is
something we greatly miss in this
current gaming age so the fact that the
PS classic comes with two controllers
makes this the perfect entry on our list
we can’t wait to sit down with friends
in battle mode and beat the hell out of
one another as crash cocoa doctor cortex
