Best playstation games according to redditors

Shit... You're not kidding

If you have an original PlayStation you can still get a sealed copy of the game for less than the Switch version price. Super worth playing btw.

List price here for the UK amazon for reseller asking prices of the 500 Million unit.

They're currently starting at around £830 (listing price of course does not mean anyone will pay that amount). It depends on the desirability of the things as much as it does as how limited they are.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-PlayStation-Limited-Destiny-Taken/dp/B00ZG1TXJM

The Destiny one starts at less than 600 while the 20th Anniversary one

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-Playstation-Limited-Anniversary-Console/dp/B00R0IDJI0/

lists for 1200. It doesn't have to take years for the perceived value to rocket, realistically, just the hype around it. The Destiny one is much older than the 500m unit and yet hasn't appreciated that much.

My favorite PS game of all time, currently going for $189 new on Amazon.

For anyone interested, you can still order brand new copies of Chrono Cross for the PS1 from Square Enix's website and Amazon for about $15+shipping.

They are not resealed, they are reprints. This is how Square has been sealing them. Square continues to manufacture a few of their popular titles so these are NOT "New Old Stock" but just plain old "New Stock".

Edit: If you were to buy this sold and shipped as "New" by Amazon, it would be in the same shrink wrap as this is how they are sealed by the manufacturer these days.

If your looking for the ps1 copies, I hope you have some cash, I was looking at amazon as I was curious

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00002SU93/ref=sr_1_1_olp?ie=UTF8&qid=1407244383&sr=8-1&keywords=revelations+persona&condition=used

For the two on amazon (probably cheaper on some other website, and I'm not including the Persona 2 Innocent Sin as its japanese only for psx) its around 90$ for both, while I've seen Persona 1 and both 2's 5$ each on PSN sales

amazon has Chrono Cross for $10 for a new copy: https://www.amazon.com/Chrono-Cross-PlayStation/dp/B00004TC6E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1518192260&sr=8-1&keywords=chrono+cross. It is the Greatest Hits version, but there is no guarantee the one from Gametop won't be. And there is no guarantee the Gamestop one won't be just the disc.

I tried to do this recently. The days of my Knights of the Round and Golden Chocobos were too tempting. However, the graphics got to me pretty quick...

You could always sell it.

Here you are, no need to thank me citizen.

(Flies off into the distance)

Seriously though, it's truly an awesome game, and holds up pretty well graphically.

The present controls the past. Proof: You literally can't buy the old version anymore. Nope, totally can't buy it anymore

you won't find just the first disc unless you want to pay an insane amount on ebay.

just buy the greatest hits version for $15 on amazon

DJMax Technika Tune, this is more similar to DDR, and imo, far more intense.

Also, P4: Dancing All Night is coming out this year.

I'd grab it for PSN, it's a better port than the iOS version.

If you're planning to play it on PS3, I'd actually recommend just getting a physical copy of Anthology for PS1, which includes both V and VI.

You can still get a new copy for $10, the same price as either of them alone on PSN. http://www.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-Anthology-VI-Playstation/dp/B00002R28C/

A fucking beautiful Skyrim Pro

https://www.google.com/amp/s/press-start.com.au/news/playstation/2017/11/13/look-nice-limited-edition-skyrim-ps4-pro/amp/

The actual Amazon price for a used copy is about $20.

For PC: To start playing you need just A Realm Reborn, which will grant you all content from 1-50 including the 2 years of patch content before Heavensward released. The only thing you will be missing out on is creating an Au Ra character that you can start the game as from level 1.
Then you need Heavensward, which grants access to the 50-60 content, with the new land (6 zones), 3 new jobs and the 2 years of Heavensward patch content. It also lets you either make an Au Ra character, or change your character's race to an Au Ra.
There is also a bundle where you may buy both the base game and the expansion together, but there is no bundle with Collector's Edition goodies.
You will need both collector's editions if you want all the digital goodies, or you can buy upgrades to both editions in order to get them, whenever you choose to.
On Steam it looks exactly the same. The only downside is that you are bound to buy everything on Steam and the box edition codes will not work with Steam. This makes it hard if you wish to have the physical collector's editions as their codes will not work with the Steam version and you would need to buy the collector's box and the Steam upgrade for Stormblood, for example.
For PS4:
It's the same as on PC, except the digital PSN codes and the box editions codes can be mixed and matched without issues.

Yeah. And they're pretty inexpensive, too.

I don't know who downvoted you, you're right. Used copies going for $20 on amazon.

Detroit is home to the Ice Cream Soda!

Yes, I looked this up. XD :Long before A&W introduced their root-beer float the ice-cream soda was being served to thirsty Detroiters along Boston Boulevard. Many historians claim Detroit’s own Fred Sanders, a confectioner and owner of The Pavilion of Sweets first served the drink to two customers in 1876. A popular drink at the time was the sweet cream soda. One day when the ice delivery truck failed to show Sander’s day-old cream went sour. Improvising, he instead mixed ice cream with the carbonated beverage and hence the drink was born.

By the 1880s the most popular combination for this drink was Ginger Ale with ice cream aka the Boston Cooler; specifically Vernor’s Ginger Ale & Sander’s ice cream. The beverage was named after the Boulevard and not the Massachusetts city. James Vernor’s drugstore located a short distance away made the unique combination seem very natural. Vernor’s produced an intense golden ginger ale, unlike most modern dry ginger ales. Until the 1920s ginger ale was the nation’s most popular choice of carbonated beverage, and Vernor’s happens to be our nation’s oldest soda. Soda connoisseurs still advocate to this day that if you want to taste ginger ale the way it was meant to taste locate a Vernor’s.

This used is $9.97

The best game ever made. Congrats on your new 3DS :)

This is the original making it much more valuable than any digital versions and more valuable than the greatest hits edition that came out shortly after the black bar version. The greatest hits edition is not very valuable nor are the digital versions. The black bar version is highly valuable and sought after by collectors. Generally, you won't find the original black bar version for less than $100. That being said, the "Greatest Hits" versions nearly have no value. The original black bar is a collector's item which is why it's so valuable.

Here are some sources:

I would recommend not playing Silent Hill 1 on PS3 as it is quite buggy in parts. If you can get a PS1/PS2 to play it on that would be the way to go. I would definitely urge you to get a physical copy for this one. Looks like you can get it for about $25 on Amazon.

For Silent Hill 2 and 3 you are absolutely correct that the PS2 versions are the way to go (though the PC versions are quite good as well). For Silent Hill 2 be sure to get the Greatest Hits/Director's Cut version as it has more content than the standard release.

>As far as I understand you can get Book of Memories on PSN buy you need a vita to play it, right?

Yes, Book of Memories is only playable on the Vita. Personally I'm waiting for the Vita price to drop enough that I can justify buying it for just one game but they're still going for like $150.

5/5 all excellent SNES games. The gf recently finished Link to the Past for the first time with me as her guide, it was really fun, although she had this obsession about slashing every single bush and grass patch in the entire game. I really want to play Secret of Mana with her sometime, but I don't have it.

Earthbound is pretty expensive and I've never played it myself. Chrono Trigger is a classic. If you have access to a playstation, you could play it this way. And Final Fantasy VI is also pretty essential. Again, with access to a Playstation: pretty damn cheap used

You could get both those games (and FF IV and FF V, also good games) used for less than $25 including shipping.

If you don't have access to a PS or PS2 via a friend, you could actually purchase a used PS1 for pretty cheap as well. If that's really too much effort (understandable) or you really prefer the SNES controller feel, see if you have any nearby (or even online) friends who could lend it to you. Hell, if we were already friends and you paid the shipping and promised to send it back, I'd send Chrono Trigger to you. Unfortunately we do not know each other and you might nab it! ;-)

Pretty sure you can already get a retail version of that.

You could just get Final Fantasy Chronicles and Chrono Cross, since the PS3 supports PS1 discs.

I could see Sony putting Chrono Cross on the PSN with the other PS1 games, but I think there's more of a chance of Chrono Trigger being brought over to the PSP, much like Final Fantasy I, II, and Tactics.

Seems a bit favored on your end. As I can purchase a brand new sealed copy from Amazon, for $20. http://www.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-VIII-Playstation/dp/B0000296O5/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1341607017&sr=8-1&keywords=final+fantasy+8

Interested in anything else, perchance?

it's $15 on amazon for all 4 discs. $10 if you buy it used.

If you haven't already got these on an older system, I highly recommend the classic Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross.

(sorry for Amazon link; not trying to promote them that way, but you can find good reviews there, if desired)

Final Fantasy7 was amazing. One of the best games ever. Go get this game and a PlayStation, even if you have never played any other Final Fantasy game, you will still have blast.

Even if the load times are rough I would still recommend playing FFVI as a part of Final Fantasy Anthology. It is a great game and is much more expensive to play legally on the SNES. You also get the super-awesome cut scenes.

While there are some Final Fantasy games that make references to each other (Tactics and XII take place in the same world, but many many years apart; Cloud from FFVII is in Tactics; etc.) the cameos and references are negligible. The exception to this is Final Fantasy X-2.

If you still feel the desire to get into the series, I'd recommend you do whatever you can to play the first game. You can find it on the PSN store but if that option isn't available then there are plenty of cheap used copies on amazon. If you can get past the dated graphics and controls, you'll find it has the same formula that made 2 and 3 so awesome.

No tracking down a copy you say? Here's a whole bunch on Amazon selling for $18 and up. You should return that to the library and buy your own copy.

A used copy of this game would be great! I actually don't have a ps2, but I'm hoping I can find one in yard sales this summer.

My gaming knowledge is really limited only to Nintendo products, though I'm hoping to change that. I am really looking forward to Pokemon XY, though I don't know if they'll even mention any new info. I'm really hoping to get a ps3 or something to catch up on all these great games I've been hearing about. Hopefully maybe there's a sort of price drop for the ps3 now that the ps4 is coming out. Hopefully.

Have some more options.

it's about $9 USD plus shipping

As someone who also loves FFX (My personal favorite FF), I think you should try to play it yourself. Sure the graphics are a little, meh, but there's still plenty of fun to be had. I started with FFX then went back to play FF7 in later years and was still able to enjoy it quite a bit.

If you have a ps3 you can buy it (digital download) on PSN for $10 I think. Or, if you have a PS1 / 2 you can get it on ebay or amazon (For about $25 is seems, or 30 for greatest hits version: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00000JRSB/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used ) or if you're feeling lucky you can try Craigslist.

I've heard bad things about the PC version, so I can't really recommend that. If PC is your only option, you might as well emulate it.

MSRP is $40 and you can currently get it for $30.

Weird that the store doesn't offer the base game...
Amazon.com has the base game as a digital download for $19.99, $22.98 if he'd prefer a boxed version.
Maybe the game is on the PS Store as well?

I find a lot of original Playstations, and Ps2's at local thrift stores for incredibly cheap (about $15-$20), so if you already have the Spyro games I would recommend that. However, from what I've seen, the games usually sell for really high prices online, so if you don't already have the games, I would recommend emulation, unless you can manage to find them cheaper than what I'm seeing on Amazon

Yes but as I said in my post, the Final Fantasy Anthology collection for PS1 contains FF6. I made no mention of 3.

You have to purchase the game before you are given an access code. Allow me to hold your hand a bit more:

First, I'd give roughly 40% of it to Uncle Sam, because he says I'm a nice person and am willing to share with him. After that's all said and done, I buy a Batmobile

EDIT: I suppose I should leave an item

My favorite, yet reasonable, item is Silent Hill for playstation. Its my all-time favorite game, and I love love love love love the series.

One of my all-time favorite games

Sorry, its even lower here new: http://www.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-VIII-Playstation/dp/B0000296O5/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1320522828&sr=8-1

Unless you want black label, then it will be more.

So yes.

My first FF was 8 on PC, then I played 7 on PC, then 10 on PS2 at a friend's house. When I got my own PS2 and played 9, I was blown away at how much of a true gem it is. Seriously, man, do yourself a favor.

$12.18 for PS1

Oh well if you truly think that, you may be interested in this more than a PC.

This will be what you're specifically looking for. When they released FFVI on PS1 they bundled it with FF V and called it "Anthology". So it is actually two games in one.

I'd say 2, but play of them, three games for the price of one :), also Uncharted 4 is a must play!

PS Thanks for the gold!

No problem! Now go out and buy the PS4 version!

I just picked it up and will be starting fresh for the PS4 version as I haven't played in like 9 months!

http://www.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-XIV-REALM-REBORN-PlayStation/dp/B00DCBDNW6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1409283101&sr=8-1&keywords=ffxiv+ps4

Umm...I hate to be the bearer of bad news...but:

• NIB - FF8: $12.00
  
• NIB - FF9: $12.00
  
• NIB - FFA: $16.00
  
• NIB - FFC: $15.00
  
• NIB - FFO: $19.00
  
  (From Amazon...there are cheaper options for all of the above through independent Amazon marketplace stores)
  
  You fell victim to dealers overhyping rarity...which happens way too often to a lot of people, so nothing against you. It is the reason prices are so high on games that are just plain and simple not rare or monetarily valuable. I just wish more people armed themselves with knowledge and stopped letting dealers shaft customers so often.
  
  The original release Halo and $7.00 for GH RE4 were pretty good deals though, kudos on those!
  
  Edit: By numbered, you mean 7, 8, and 9? Do you have A, C, and O yet? I also notice that in your Backloggery, 7 is the only beaten one you have, which one is your next play through? n_n I love the PS Final Fantasies.

This system has 2k18?

https://www.amazon.com/Sony-Playstation-PS1-Video-Console-Pc/dp/B000K6TOK6

Whoever did that to you is a 100% prime grade-A asshole. Looks like you can buy a sealed copy of FF9 on Amazon for twelve bucks and some change, though.

When it comes to Final Fantasy XIV:

Should I get this this?

Or should I get this, this AND this?

I'd much rather have the actual Sony one.

(actually to be completely honest I don't think the color really works for either model of PS4)

He likes RPG's you said?

Well then I would go for this.

I'm not saying it's right, I'm saying it happened!!!

While I agree that it's uncommon nowadays for a 10 year old game to add in value, first prints are still collector's items (even though Atlus hadn't really helped with this by basically reprint the ones with growing popularity).
I suspect this game is in that category (and Atlus would probably not reprint it, as digital distribution is now a day-1 option), meaning that in 20 years it'd be possible to find it among articles like the original Persona / Persona 2 for the original PSX (and that's coming from someone still hunting down for the first one at a decent price).

[That is the exact reason I don't own it] (http://www.amazon.com/Tomba/dp/B00002STKH/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1457268564&sr=8-1&keywords=Tomba)

On the playstation store? If so, that's a damn shame. But then again buying digital on consoles is never the economic route:

Still much better value than any subscription MMO right now IMO.

Wow what a blast from the past. Yeah charming is definitely the word to describe it. Couldn't play the game unless it was sped to a thousand or something.lol

No 2d MMO's are a real rarity these days. If you could find the torrent for Legend of Mana than grab it. It's an old PSX game that you might like it and may hold you over for a time. The artwork and quirky characters are above and beyond charming. Also the music is great.

There's a good reason why it's $200.

They actually still print new copies of it

Final Fantasy VII, mint condition, 8 bucks.

It goes for this much on Amazon.

Only $12.11 new on Amazon.

I believe mine was 4. This editorial review on amazon seems to agree with my memory.

> Truly epic in scope, this four-disc game requires a considerable amount of time to complete

Thanks for the answer, I was under the belief that somehow the black disc held more data. Also since you mentioned Hong Kong "silvers" I think Square Enix sells them on amazon here and here

Let's say you have two games launched at the same time, a great, popular game and a terrible one no one's heard of.

For some reason, the publishers of Terrible Game (TG) are quite confident, so they initially print the same number of copies. We'll say 200,000.

Great Game (GG) delivers all of the copies they printed, and sells all 200,000 copies immediately. Retailers call the publisher and demand a restock. The publisher begins printing another, larger batch.

Terrible Game delivers 10,000 copies at launch, because no one preordered it and so the retailers only stocked 1-2 copies per store. A few sell, because some people want that 100% complete console library, some people are boycotting Great Game because the publisher's CEO said something rude on Twitter, the Terrible Anime license the game is based on has a cult following, etc. These are eventually restocked from the original print run.

So, a month or two has passed. Great Game's second print run was 500,000, because running out of stock is a missed sales opportunity and they want to avoid it. Terrible Game still hasn't sold 200,000 copies, so no reprints yet.

6 months pass, and GG is on its 3rd or 4th printing. TG has finally sold close to 200,000, but by this time, they've decided it's not worth the effort to do another print run, instead focusing their resources on their next game release in hopes it's better received.

So now GG has printed a million or so copies, and TG printed 1/5 of that. 6 months later, GG comes out with a GOTY Edition print run, then a year after that, the Greatest Hits/Nintendo Selects/whatever version. Maybe they never stop printing it. (Yes, Square Enix is still printing some of their PS1 Greatest Hits line.)

Now, those little game discs/cartridges aren't invincible. Maybe they fall behind the couch and are lost forever. Maybe they're left in a pants pocket and washed. Maybe they fall out of an improperly secured moving truck. Maybe they sit in a glass case in the window of a used game store for a decade before the housing crumbles to dust and the contact pins corrode irreparably. This will affect both GG and TG, but since GG printed so many more copies, it's still not impossible to find. Even if 50% of all copies are destroyed, there are still more copies of GG than TG ever had.

I rambled a bit there, and I just made up the numbers, but the TL;DR is no, there's not always the same amount of games, and even if accidents didn't happen, some games just got larger print runs to begin with.

> Then again, I've never played any of the FF#'s including the famous FF7 and the newer FF10-13. What exactly makes these games fun in the first place? Still trying to figure that point out lol.

I mean, what makes any game fun? Just gotta find what you get joy out of and look for games that suit your tastes. I grew up on Final Fantasy and loved the fantastical stories wrapped up with fun and interesting casts of characters. There are some thematic things that carry over from one game to the next, but the numbered games don't connect to one another as sequels or whatever, so which games from the series you enjoy usually boils down to preference. Especially since the series basically reinvents itself with every new game.

>Oh and the good old rpg tropes of warriors and mages and archers was great too.

Normally I'd suggest picking up the FFX remaster that came out not too long ago and giving it a shot, because I just think it's the series' peak in character development and storytelling. But if the old school fighter/mage/thief trifecta more appeals to you, you might consider FF9 instead, which is my second favorite game in the series.

>Heard a lot about this, never played a persona title before. Can you give me the run down on why it's fun?

It's half Shin Megami Tensei (dark, demony fusing goodness) and half dating sim. You get the grindy micromanagement for half the game, and the other half is dedicated to attending school and getting to know your companions (and usually potentially dating one of them by the end of the game).

>because western rpgs 1. too much horror-religious-gothic-skulls-and-bones stuff (you know exactly what I'm talking about)

Depends on where you're looking. Mass Effect is a classic scifi space opera. Deus Ex and the most recent Shadowrun games are solidly cyberpunk. Fallout is post-apocalyptic.

>2. none of them have party systems

This is where you're going to have to dip more into CRPGs. Pillars of Eternity. The recent Tyrrany. I mentioned Shadowfall just above. It's definitely something I miss from most WRPGs though, I like the banter and depth of story granted from playing with party NPCs.

>except dragon age inquisition which I played and it sucks dick.

I'm not entirely sure what you hated about DAI since you didn't elaborate, but I do agree that the game was pretty lacking. If you liked the promise of DAI but didn't like the execution, you might go back and try Dragon Age: Origins. It's not perfect, but the game has a hell of a lot more soul than DAI does.

You were saying?

There was also a playstation port of FF6 in Final Fantasy Anthology:

I've been really wanting to do this too. You can get V and VI for PS1 in a combo pack on Amazon for like 10 dollars. Both are amazing. And if you love FFVII and like 3rd person shooters I would say give Dirge of Cerberus a chance, I really enjoyed it; but I could see why a lot of people didn't care for it.

There's always this if you're that desperate for an NA copy. I bought a Korean copy that's fully in English a few weeks ago for $60. I think any NA copies you do find are gonna be $100+.

Here ya go! That's a ps1 anthology playable on your ps2 that has 6 in it. It's less than $17 and you get 5 as a bonus :D

I've also compiled some prices for the games I mentioned. You'll be able to get started within a few days for around $50.00. I had to find used, because some of the older ps1 games are collectors items new and apparently sell for $200.00

PS2, used from Amazon: ~33.00 including shipping

Crash Bandicoot 1, used from Amazon: ~$11.00 including shipping
LINK

Crash Bandicoot 2, used from Amazon: ~$8.00 including shipping
LINK

Spyro 1, used from Amazon: ~$11.00 including shipping
LINK

Spyro 2, used from Amazon: ~$8.00 including shipping
LINK

Spyro Year of the Dragon, used from Amazon: ~$12.00 free shipping with prime
LINK

Spyro Enter the Dragonfly [This one is probably the last decent on in the series, used from Amazon: ~$6.00 free shipping with Prime
LINK

Sly Cooper 1, used from Amazon: ~$5.00 including shipping
LINK

Sly Cooper 2, used from Amazon: ~$6.00 including shipping
LINK

The entire list comes to about $100 it total. If you sit down during every free moment and play, those games should last you at least a couple of months. However, those are just my suggestions. I've found Amazon to be really reliable for a used marketplace, but you'll also want to try a store like gamestop. They usually have this huge basket full of ps1 and ps2 games. If you pick one up and think it looks interesting, get it. There are a lot of hidden gems for these consoles. Good luck :)

I still play the hell out of these games on a regular basis. I love my PS1.

1. Tomb Raider II
   
2. Spyro II (better than the original IMO)
   
3. Final Fantasy Chronicles
   
4. Twisted Metal 4

Amazon has it listed for as low as 25.00 to as high as 49.00.

eBay has it for as little as 5.50

You can track down a used Playstation 1 and a set of the original discs for pretty cheap, actually. :)

In fact, you don't really even need the system itself -- most emulators nowadays don't require a BIOS file any more, having replaced it with their own BIOS-mimicking code, meaning they don't depend on any proprietary Sony code and are therefore entirely legal to use as long as you're reading from the real discs and not a pirated copy (that is, emulators are usually used to run pirated software, which is illegal, but the emulators themselves are not illegal -- see the case of Sony Computer v. Bleem, Inc.)...



^(NOTE: I am not a lawyer)

Amazon doesn't sell DjMax Technika Tune. But, third party marketplace sells it.

If you check here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00AMQMMEO/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new&qid=1375713295&sr=8-1

It shows all 3rd party sellers. Amazon isn't on the list. That means Amazon doesn't directly sell it or doesn't have a verified Amazon Third Party "Fulfilled by Amazon."

DJMAX TECHNIKA does not sell to retailers like Amazon, Gamestop, Bestbuy and Etc. What you find on Amazon are people who purchased the game from their site and trying to flip it for more. Amazon does not sell it. Only 3rd party Marketplace Merchants sell it on Amazon.

Used on Amazon is all ~$40. You might have to cough up extra for it, what with it's popularity/fanboy following.

You can also try craigslist.org

Wayyyyy off.

>EDIT: Shit I forgot to mention this is a Mac we're talking about.

Abandon hope.

Oh, and you can probably buy FFT from amazon for 19 bucks. If you have a PS3, you could play it there.

Interestingly enough, I just searched on amazon and you can currently get the original, ps1 disc version for $14.25 NEW. Seems strange that you can get it even CHEAPER than the digital port.

I plan on waiting for some kind of sale before I pick it up on switch :P

Are you genuinely arguing that spryo 2 is not a separate game from spyro 1 because it's not separately purchasable on the switch? Here's an equally condescending exercise: do the numbers 2 and 3 come after 1? Then their usage indicates sequential releases of unique installations of a single franchise.

Also, here are separate URLs for spyro one, two and three because despite being sold in a bundle on the switch, they are, by definition, three separate games.
