What started as an add-on to the Super Nintendo in 1988 turned into a storming success for the gaming market, overtaking well-established titans like Nintendo and SEGA. Given its history, picking just 10 of the best PS1 games is no easy feat.<\/p>\n<p>For the 32-bit console era, the PlayStation didn&#8217;t just achieve that; it dominated, with sales of over 100 million worldwide and spawning countless iconic franchises, some of which are still going on today. The console also helped spur the concept of analog controls and rumble, something that SEGA and Nintendo had also been doing in the mid-90s.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, it&#8217;s the games that defined the console&#8217;s legacy, resulting in some of the best-looking and best-selling entries for the PlayStation during its lifetime. With this in mind, Techopedia presents the 10 best PS1 games of all time.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-note\"

But even in its arcade days, it was clear this was a special game.<\/p>\n<p>A huge step up from what came before in the Tekken series, Tekken 3 took the 3D fighting genre to the next level with a juggle system, more intricate combos, throws, and unique characters. By the time it launched on the PlayStation in 1998, there were exclusive characters, a Streets of Rage style mode called Tekken Force, and, of course, the iconic Tekken Ball Mode.<\/p>\n<p>Tekken 3 was the game that left others like Virtua Fighter in the dust, forcing developers to rethink what the genre could be like on home console hardware. Without question, it&#8217;s among the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/best-fighting-games\">best fighting games<\/a> on PS1, and that&#8217;s saying something, given how many the system was home to.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Resident Evil 2<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_361121\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-361121\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/RESI2_optimized.jpg\" alt=\"Replacing the Spencer Mansion with an infested police department was an intelligent chance.

The first attempt was almost complete in early 1997 before the team at CAPCOM decided that it didn&#8217;t meet its standards, so they started from scratch. The result was a sequel that built on what was established before in every way and then some.<\/p>\n<p>Players took on the roles of Leon Kennedy or Claire Redfield, exploring the eerie Police Station of Raccoon City, solving puzzles, collecting weapons and items, and finding out the secrets of the Umbrella Corporation. The game also introduced second scenarios for both characters, offering alternative routes and the debut of the relentless Mr. X, an antagonist that would later become iconic in the game&#8217;s remake, released in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Resident Evil 2 set the benchmark for claustrophobic and paranoid survival horror as well as how it introduced the concept of replayability that could be used in the series. While any of the original trilogy could have featured here, it&#8217;s the first sequel that takes pole position as the best PS1 horror game.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Tomb Raider<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_361124\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-361124\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/TR1_optimized.jpg\" alt=\"The first Tomb Raider was a landmark release for the original PlayStation.

Not only was Tomb Raider a revolutionary 3D game, but it also featured a female protagonist called Lara Croft, a rarity at the time.<\/p>\n<p>Created by Core Design in Derby, England, players explored 10 huge levels, racing against others like the ever-appearing Pierre to collect the Scion, the game&#8217;s MacGuffin. The music, composed by Nathan McCree, was also one of the game&#8217;s defining attributes, with tracks like the T-Rex elevating the gameplay moments up another notch. Tomb Raider spawned a franchise that&#8217;s still going today, with a new film currently in development.<\/p>\n<p>For more on the series, we&#8217;ve also rounded up the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/best-classic-tomb-raider-levels\">best Tomb Raider levels<\/a>, how to play the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/tomb-raider-games-in-order\">Tomb Raider games in order<\/a>, and written about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/give-tomb-raider-angel-of-darkness-another-chance\">why Angel of Darkness needs another chance<\/a>.

Of course, those fears were unfounded, as Final Fantasy VII went on to be regarded as one of the best PS1 games ever made. See how it compares against the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/best-jrpgs\">best JRPGs<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Featuring amazingly 3D-rendered backgrounds, incredible animations during battles \u2014 especially when Summons are used for the magical monsters, and a fantastic soundtrack composed by Nobuo Uematsu, the game set the bar for the series from then on. With a storyline that&#8217;s still talked about today, Final Fantasy VII set new standards for how an RPG could work for a 3D console, resulting in an unforgettable experience for many players.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Metal Gear Solid<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_361137\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-361137\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/MGS-1_optimized.jpg\" alt=\"Metal Gear Solid pushed the boundaries of what the PlayStation was capable of.

But all is not as it seems, with many plot twists and a crucial choice to make halfway through the game that decides one of two possible endings.<\/p>\n<p>Metal Gear Solid redefined narrative storytelling in video games, challenging players to think outside the box to solve puzzles and bosses, such as the iconic Psycho Mantis. With the fantastic voice-acting, led by David Hayter, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/3kfFYRLuDtQoNVnCq4X2HG?si=e6c5e0d4d51446b0\" target=\"_blank\">music<\/a>, the game serves as a masterclass in how a story can be told whilst taking advantage of the PlayStation through innovative and engaging ways. It&#8217;s our pick for the best PS1 game of all time.
