PS1 Games That Wouldn't Get Made Today

Stating that the gaming industry is different now to what it was back in the days of the PS1 is perhaps the biggest understatement ever.

PS5 can't play cd music, wow!!!!! for $700????

Flewid638202d ago

No point coding it for outdated tech.

blacktiger202d ago

$700 dollars and can't play cd, that's some garbage hardware. And if Xbox is same then PC all the way

Cacabunga201d ago (Edited 201d ago )

outdated but uncompressed sound quality is unmatched these days.. I still use CD in my car. it is just on another level.

OT:

Bust a Groove is what first came to my mind.

Eidolon202d ago

Imagine a car without a cassette player, it's old tech, vehicles therefore should have it!

porkChop201d ago

To be fair, that's a bit different. CDs are still the primary physical media for music.

rippermcrip201d ago

@porkchop

Keyword in your sentence is "physical". Digital is primary way to listen to music by a long shot.

If you're such an audiophile that you need your CD quality music, I'm sure you already have a system that handles that.

Flewid638201d ago

Brand new cars dont have any of those I just bought a 2024 Genesis G70.

redfire_bt202d ago

It also cant play VCR or Cassettes or floppy discs.

Knushwood Butt202d ago

Yeah, I can't believe it doesn't have a minidisc player in it either. I mean, that tech is more recent than CD.

S2Killinit201d ago (Edited 201d ago )

You could say the same about xbox not being able to play good games. For $600???? No thank you. 🙂‍↔️

anast201d ago

My car doesn't use a hand crank to get the engine started, wow...

Killer2020UK201d ago

Won't someone think of the Betamax!

StormSnooper201d ago

Insecure much? What’s the matter you worried that PRO leaves series x in the dust, and it costs only $100 more?

Thomaticus201d ago

Even without the CD drive. They should allow you take your PS1 purchases made via the PS3 and use those via emulator on the PS5.

Happy Birthday PaRappa the Rapper Dec. 6, 1996 (Japan) That game was so much fun.

CrimsonWing69202d ago

Apparently Limited Run announced a Remaster for Fear Effect. Guess it’s ok to sell, just not make.

GotGame818201d ago (Edited 201d ago )

"wouldn't get made today" who approves this grammatically 2nd grade English? Seriously? If you are published, I would think at least some sort of policy would be in place, in terms of grammar! Whoever 'wright this' article should put the controller down and learn BASIC English! Very BASIC English!

Changing tastes is why these games would be hard pressed to find investors. Customers and game bloggers reinforce poor taste as well.

It’s definitely an upgrade, not sure about massive.

Grilla6h ago

It is massive compared to the switch 1. 6-10X the power, but compared to current standards it’s the bare minimum.

RedDevils6h ago

It's just a minor upgrade nothing special. Could have included the Oled screen but greedy Nintendo have something planned for it already.

Yesyes6h ago

Oled screen means nothing when people have OLED tv's.

Rage775h ago

You are self aware of how dumb and "sheepy" that tagline of "greedy" sounds like at this point in time, right?
Every little entitled twat on the internet has used it ad nauseum, as if all of a sudden you somehow struck gold or something. it ALMOST sounds as infantile as the other meme vomit brain rot: "Defending the billion dollar company, blah, blah" FFS. tell me its "irony" at least what you are trying to express, so at least i can give you some credit for being "clever" or bold. I refuse to believe you ACTUALLY believe what you are saying, unironically,

repsahj6h ago

Great review! We have almost the same impression of the Switch 2. I don't care if the screen isn't OLED, because when I put it next to my friend's Steam OLED screen, they barely deviated in quality.

anast5h ago

Better than the Steam Deck not as good as the other consoles on the market.

As someone who has been gaming nearly as long as gaming has been around (since the early 70's), you'd think I'd be against this. Having grown up with all the major platforms and the whole notion of physical ownership... but I'm not. i embrace this as it is a revolutionary convenience. And one i know for a fact many (especially here) have not even given the fair chance to use. I get it... i was there too. But now i have a new outlook on it. It really is a hell of an option if you just want to play with no commitments. By no means am i saying this should replace traditional gaming, its an option. And one that people should look at optimistically as a way to compliment traditional gaming. There is room for both to thrive.
