Retro Games

I dug out my N64 and PS1 (or PSX) the other day and I'm thinking about getting some games for them both. What do you think I should get?

Goldeneye for N64. Also, if you can get it cheap (and I mean, very cheap), My friend and I played Pokemon Snap a few months ago (we're both in college) and though it only took us a few hours to beat, we got some strange kind of enjoyment out of it. Star Wars: Dark Forces, Spyro, and Crash Bandicoot for PS1

Own Goldeneye, its a frigging classic and I still rate it amongst the best shooters ever. Rented Snap once and i got some weird enjoyment out of it too. Thanks for your advice.

I find a lot of N64 and PS1 games have dated quite badly unfortunately, even though I still bust mine out every so often. Anyways

N64: Banko-Kazooie, Mario 64, Star Wars Pod Racer, Perfect Dark, Donkey Kong 64, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Jet Force Gemini.

PS1: Any of the Final Fantasy series, Metal Gear Solid 1, Street Fighter Alpha 3, MediEval, Alundra, Dino Crisis and Resi Evil series, Silent Hill and Vagrant Story.

I would say try to get your hands on Final Fantasy 9 for the PS1, it is my personal favorite.

turok one or two, mario kart, and tony hawks pro skater
(back when it was fun) for n64 and maybe clock tower for ps1

The Crash and Spyro games for PS1

Old games are really fun to go back and play, every once in a while. I suggest the following;
N64: Banjo Kazooie 1+2, Mario 64, Lylat Wars, Donkey Kong, any Zelda game, Pokemon Snap, and Conkers Bad Fur Day.
PS1: All the Spyros, Crash Team Racing, Crash Bandicoot, Final Fantasy.
All very good games.

Thanks for all your advice, I understand why Spyro and Crash are so popular; they kicked ass! I think Gateway to Glimmer, YOFD, CTR and Crash 3 will do for PS1, and Banjo for N64.

South Park 64 is obligatory.

South Park 64 is obligatory.

If you're looking to prove that the world is a terrible place filled with nothing but evil.



N64: Banjo-Tooie, Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, Paper Mario, Goldeneye007, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Rocket: Robot on Wheels, and Diddy Kong Racing.

PS1: Twisted Metal 2, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Tekken 3, Final Fantasy 9, and Final Fantasy Tactics.

If you don't mind dropping some serious cash, pick up Klonoa: Door to Phantomile, probably the greatest platformer ever.
