I should try that! Except neither my sister, and I are interested in anything, but the Sony consoles ;; It's just the odd one or two games on the Nintendo systems that we like playing, but that hasn't interested us enough to jump on the bandwagon.
|
That reminds me, I used to play with Sony consoles, PSone to be exact, it was fun good old times {XD}. Even though I'm often playing with Nintendo handhelds like 3DS now, I missed playing using PSone, this console have some good games that I enjoy!
|
Some of the nostalgic PS games that I watched my sister play were Legend of Legaia, Legend of Dragoon, Chrono Cross, Parasite Eve series, and Final Fantasy. Those were great RPGs back then, and I'm looking into buying a few of the ones that we don't already own back through eBay (: I never got the chance to play them myself since my sister regrettably sold them before I was old enough >>;;
|
I've always wanted to get myself a PSOne system (doesn't really matter if they're old or not), but it's impossible to find any within a good price range and condition. ): Have played some of its games on my computer before via emulator, but it just doesn't give you the same, exact experience.
|
My grandma still has her Psone aand since she never plays it it still looks like it's brand new out of the box. She only has 9 games though; Frogger, Crash Bandicoot, Crash Bandicoot Warped, Crash Bandicoot 2, Rayman, Spyro, 101 Dalmatians, Scrabble, Life, and one other game that I can't remember.

I know it feels cool playing one, hearing the startup sound is the best; but whenever I break mine out it quickly loses the novelty and I decide to just play it on the emulator instead using the setup Oryx mentioned. Better graphic display, less likely to freeze, less likely to get a corrupted save or something like that. |

Emulator could start getting low framerate due to weak processing and it wouldn't be like on PS1 =D |

I have quite a few PSOne titles on my PS3. I love playing them when I want to kick back with that nostalgia factor. The collection they have on PSN is pretty good. I snag a few games at a time. Right now I'm playing Silent Hill, Crash Bandicoot, and Gex
|
I have a rather massive PSone library as it was one of my first consoles. I got it and a SNES at roughly the same time and started buying games like crazy. I wish I would have kept all their cases because games in their cases are much more impressive than books filled with games. I have all of the Spyro and Crash games for PSone, as well as a lot of obscure titles that would fetch a pretty penny...if I had the cases. I love the obscure games much more than the mainstream ones though and end up playing them the most when I go to look for a feeling of nostalgia.
|
When it comes to libraries of different video game systems, my largest one is the Xbox 360 games one. I have over fifty games in it. Where as my smallest one is my GB/GBC one. I only have four games in it. All of my other ones are somewhere between those two.
|
Physically, my libraries are pretty small. My largest is, oddly enough, my PC one.
...Well, retrospectively it makes sense. After all, you can't sell PC games back to Gamestop (which, back in the day, was how I got the money to buy more games), and I've been a big Sims fan since early 2000s. As a result, while I've owned many, many games (and, if we were talking total collection, sold or otherwise, my PS2 would easily be king), thanks to my lack of income as a child, I would often sell my games back to Gamestop for their terrible return rates and get more games. But a number of years ago I stopped selling my games because I actually like collecting, and I hate selling a game only to regret it and probably buy it back later...If I can, but then there are games like the .Hack series. I was shocked when a friend told me that they were not only rare now, but they sold for upwards of $100. And I'd already sold mine. So yeah, PC's my largest library physically, followed by the PS2 and the regrettably the Xbox 360, as much as it pains me to say. 3DS and then N64 after that. Digitally, PC would still be king, 3DS would be second, and PS3/Vita would be third. Since I buy so many games digitally nowadays, it really doesn't surprise me that PS2 and PC are my largest phys libraries, especially because there are times when I really just don't want to buy from Amazon, Gamstop in general I just can't stand anymore, and I'm not much a fan of buying games from other, non-gaming retail stores unless I find a really good price or rare gems. Ugh...all of this reminiscing is making me remember my lost GBA library ;_; |
I always thought I had a generous sized library of games, but that doesn't seem the case now that I look at them on my shelf \: Although there have been many games that we traded in over the past few years, but now I'm determined to keep them no matter how old they might become in the future. Not making the same mistake again of selling/trading in the N64, and the PSone consoles along with their games ;;
|
I have my console library in one room (360, Wii, Wii U, N64, GCN) and my handheld library in another room (GBA, DS, 3DS). Anything older is hanging out in my basement as I have no other space :(
|
I have a very moderate collection of games all in a little entertainment system in my room where my television used to sit. I also have two small drawers of DS/3DS games.
|
I think I'll slowly start to add digital games to my arsenal from now on. Me having a credit card is dangerous for my bank account ;;

that kid-sized centre really wouldn't have lasted me long. Nope. Haha |
I don't really like purchasing digital games, haha. They might be cheaper than physical on occasion, but still; you just can't trade them in (or anything of the like), which sucks. :( Though, I don't mind downloading if I manage to get a hold of free codes.

...Though really, I'm not too sure why we keep coming back to physical vs digital...so...new question. Are there any games you're looking forward to in 2014? Or, alternatively... Are there any games (or devices) that you're looking forward to being announced/showcased at E3? |
One game I'm looking forward to is Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues. It's a spiritual sequel to one of my favorite series so yeah...
|
For games coming out later this year, these are ones I am looking forward to:
Thearhythm Final Fantasy Curtain Call Borderlands The Presequel! Transformers Rise of the Dark Spark Pokemon Alpha Sapphire Destiny Super Smash Bros for 3DS |

Besides Borderlands the Presequel I do not really look forward to anything :p
unless SC2 Legacy of the Void comes out this year |
