Top 10 PSone Classics on PSN

GamerU lists their top ten PS One games currently available on the PlayStation Network.

Relientk774181d ago

PlayStation, the king of JRPGs

and that's with many not on this list too

Godmars2904181d ago

The PS1 you mean. The era when tools didn't outstrip ability.

insomnium24181d ago (Edited 4181d ago )

Somehow Suikoden 1 to me is the better game when compaired to Suikoden 2. It might sound silly but it just is. Suiko 1 is the only rpg I have played through more than 5 times. The atmosphere, soundtrack and story are just that good.

I should get Suiko 2 for my Vita so I could play it again. I don't feel like playing that from a big tv. I have both of them original for PS1.

ShiranaiJittai4181d ago (Edited 4181d ago )

@Godmars290 Playstation, PS1, PSOne, and PSX are all the same thing. Just different ways of saying it. Neither of you are wrong.

DarkOcelet4181d ago

RPG Rules! I could use a current gen reboot or sequel to every single game on the list. Especially Parasite Eve.

ps4gamer19834181d ago

Wish they would bring Breath of Fire, SaGa Frontier 1 & 2, and Dark Cloud 1 & 2 (ps2) to psn

KrisButtar4181d ago

Breath of Fire Dragon Quarter was where I lost all interest in the series. That game was awful. Maybe a reboot would be good though.

ps4gamer19834181d ago

I meant BoF 3. I never played that one you mentioned because reviews were bad.

KrisButtar4181d ago

I loved 1,2 and 3 but I'm glad the reviews spared you Dragon Quarter I wasn't so lucky.

this goes hand in hand with the recent rumours about a combined sub model they are allegedly working on.

not sure what to think of it. psn was genuinely a great name for what it did, but oh well.

darthv72106d ago

XB Live was a good name too... but nothing lasts forever.

Seraphim106d ago

haven't you heard, diamonds are forever.

S2Killinit106d ago (Edited 106d ago )

True love lasts forever. 😘

QuantumMechanic106d ago

Diamonds aren't forever, either...

isarai_lee106d ago (Edited 106d ago )

Dear Lord this article is written by AI, It talks circles over and over

Anywho, i wonder what they'll refer to it as , PSN just has a nice ring to it, kinda silly to erase it just cause 🤷‍♂️

lodossrage106d ago

I'm not too fond of this change. Changing established brand names in most industries doesn't always turn out well. But we'll see

PlayStation is trying to beat last gens Xbox missteps with all these garbage announcements… I see no other reason.
Phasing out a 20 year old iconic name like this makes absolutely no sense

S2Killinit105d ago

I never thought it was a particularly good name.

Cacabunga105d ago

Maybe boring but iconic.

Well for me I’m good I play single player 90% of the time

I thought I was losing it. Everything is working in my house except PSN. I checked the PSN page an hour ago and it was all green checks.

I just checked again, everything is red. Says they're doing maintenance.

Eonjay511d ago

It finally came back up but I must say that it's really unacceptable to not be able to play my games when it's down. Also I have gain a new appreciation for physical games. I know digital keeps growing and growing but the thing is you are paging for something you don't have complete control over and that's lame.

Cacabunga511d ago

It has been over a year since ps+ expired and i only play SP games. I only got 1 month ps+ basic back when i had to do rdr2 online trophies.
I couldn’t care less and shows sp games will always FTW

darthv72510d ago

....and this is why everyone should support more than one platform. Switch has been getting more play time as a result.

VersusDMC511d ago

Well i am locked out of my digital single player games because offline play wasn't activated and licences can't be verified. And i got no physical games. Gotta remember to activate that when it's back up.

Hopefully it comes back up soon.

neomahi511d ago

I have several PS4 consoles in my house for various purposes, I'm screwed because I have such a large collection and I don't want to have redownload whenever I want to play a game. I want to fire it up, like going to a shelf, pulling a game off the shelf, putting it in the disc drive and off you go that fast. Can't do that with digital and limited HDD space. Installing a disc is faster, you don't have to worry about data caps and internet speeds, and storage space is really expensive. Xbox just allowed a 16TB HDD to be accessed by Xbox, but that 16TB is gonna cost you, even more if it's SSD, if those even exist yet.....

VersusDMC510d ago

It is still down but if you go to settings -users and accounts- other - restore licenses i managed restore a license to a single player game. Back to replaying GOW Ragnarok.

solideagle510d ago

Single player my a**

I have downloaded unicorn overlord, Spiderman 1 And many offline single player but I am getting error to restore license but psn is down in UK.

What a load of bullshit that I can't even play single player games...

Digital is future /s :@

Sonic1881510d ago

LG_Fox_Brazil511d ago

Still down, been a while since something like this happened

Christopher510d ago

Not a good sign that they haven't said anything yet.

anast510d ago

Ask PlayStation X: "We are aware some users might be currently experiencing issues with PSN."

LG_Fox_Brazil510d ago

I'm playing Fortnite with my cousin right now, but it's the only game with servers up, the rest is working, library, store, downloads, it's just the online, which sucks, cause I wanted to play Helldivers and Phasmophobia

LG_Fox_Brazil510d ago

Update: It is back here in Brazil. 20 hours later, goddamn

OmegaSoldati510d ago

Still down. More than 12 hours. 2011 flashbacks incoming

P_Bomb511d ago

Yeah it’s all shot. Friday night? Bad timing. 😤

Profchaos511d ago (Edited 511d ago )

Saturday midday for me so no biggie Friday night would be annoying

Profchaos511d ago (Edited 511d ago )

Seems to be a big one so might extend into Saturday for the you guys

P_Bomb511d ago

Yeah, no end in sight. I watched some KCD2 streams to pass the time. Time to call it a night 😴

neomahi511d ago

Would've made more sense to do maintenance during the week. I get it, it's a necessary, but don't do it on the weekend! That and people with digital game collections are up the creek

Nacho_Z511d ago

Suggests it's a problem and not planned maintenance given the timing.

Profchaos511d ago

Down for me but single player PS plus games still work and obviously anything I own digitally or physically so big deal

PlayStation Network Currently Down Worldwide

PlayStation has been hit with a worldwide outage

Tacoboto641d ago

When PSN is down, can people even use their PS Portals locally?

I'm also near platinum in Astro but I can't even load the trophies page on the system with this issue going on.

OtterX641d ago

Yea, this thing just became a paper weight. :\

I just tried, and it woke the console up out of sleep mode just fine, but it's stuck in a neverending attempt to actually connect. I've had my Portal for a bit over a month now and have absolutely loved it... but I just found my biggest dislike of this thing.

lukasmain641d ago

Works fine for me as writing this.

OtterX641d ago

@potatoseal great! Glad your region is working. Mine's still stuck in "Connecting". :\

fr0sty641d ago

USA seems to be ok, just turned my system on and all is well.

OtterX640d ago

Yea weird, my Portal wouldn't connect until I actually restarted the Portal. It's working fine now! 🔥

+ Show (1) more replyLast reply 640d ago
Profchaos640d ago (Edited 640d ago )

No it still needs to use you PlayStation account authentication to connect the two systems. Both ends need to be able to talk to PlayStation authentication servers to verify your identity prior to connection. It's a good thing I guess as you wouldn't want a unauthorised connection to your console

There's a alternative remote play app on the app store that allows it but it's not going to help you with the portal right now

kayoss640d ago

Im able to connect using my PS Portal but all my games have the "License cannot be verified...." error.

Yui_Suzumiya641d ago

And here I just dusted off my PS4 the past week after not touching it for over 3 years and now I can't even play an offline visual novel (World End Syndrome), lol

Christopher640d ago

It was a night of Vampire Survivors for me.

Disccordia640d ago (Edited 640d ago )

Great choice, still waiting for WORLDEND PHENOMENON...

Yui_Suzumiya634d ago

Same here! I went to Twitter to check up on progress for WEP and apparently it's on the backburner for the moment while the production team works on a spin-off that takes place in the same universe as WES. I did get the platinum trophy though. Now I'm working on Steins;Gate Elite which I should have gone through years ago because the anime adaptation is what got me into anime to begin with, lol.

P_Bomb641d ago

Yeah it’s been 3 hours as of this writing. No official word on the cause that I know of.

ZeekQuattro641d ago

Verizon had outages across the US yesterday. Probably still do bit it didn't effect me. Wonder if this is related or just a coincidence.

blackblades641d ago

I can see people in my friend list playing, its not everyone just like other times. I don't mind I got other things I can do in this world we call life. It's funny on Twitter cause they all use the same excuse "oh just got off work and just wanna play". Also I like free stuff compensation would be great, I prepared for it to go down so I can get more out of it compensation

Michiel1989640d ago

day 2, drums in the deep. They are coming

LG_Fox_Brazil641d ago

Just checked and it seems Xbox is also down, is this ddos? Downdetector has quite a few people posting about both platforms and also for Verizon as well

Reaper22_640d ago

That's not true. Xbox was never down.

gold_drake641d ago (Edited 641d ago )

yeh its been down for hours now.

everytime it goes down, i get ptsd from 2011 haha

3 weeks.

blackblades641d ago

Lol I don't I be like yeah free stuff

Extermin8or3_641d ago

Free stuff at the expense of 3 months without PSN. No online play, no access to digital games .....

blackblades641d ago (Edited 641d ago )

@Extermin
Ain't talking that long, 24hrs is the limit. 24hrs should be that compensation time. 3 weeks I'm strong enough to handle it but its not worth it at 3 months bruh. 24hrs

Profchaos640d ago

@exterminator it was easier to stomach back then sure but at least there's still disc based games and games you have on your system will still load just fine unlike Xbox there's no check in to validate licences it just plays locally if it's not expired
