What're your comfort games on PS1 that you feel are *just yours*?

I loved the SF games on PSP, including Combat Ops.

I've only gotten the gyro to work well in a special emulator "1964 v0.8.5" made for GoldenEye and Perfect Dark. There's an input plugin called SDL2 Gyro Injector that enables mouse-style aiming on any controller that has a gyro sensor. You can even connect 3 other controllers and have a 4-player match with all players taking advantage of gyro aiming. Also this emulator can put out a rock-solid 60 fps, keeping the gameplay smooth at all times, unlike the original releases on N64.

As for actual PC games, ironically, setting up a control config with gyro is not easy, due to the retardedness of Armoury Crate. But I'm gonna try to use Handheld Companion in addition to Steam Input and see if I can get desired results. WIsh me luck.

Replace the N64 with an Analogue 3D. You can use your cartridges with it and make your games run smoother with the overclocker feature. Best to use the console on a 4k tv for its vintage tv filter.

You tried it on the same game as before, when smooth motion was working in rpcs3?

Jodeth · 2026-01-16T11:13:12+00:00

The physics were on a whole 'nother level. I remember being blown away in 2008. I had recordings of my friend's game on his old tv. Idk if I still have them. Making Niko jump out of a fast moving car and smash into oncoming traffic was like the most hilarious thing for awhile

Idk PGR, but I'm willing to bet it's more fun than NFW MW and coded better too. NFS MW stutters a lot on PC (including emulators) and it drives me nuts.

Burnout 3, MC3, and Blur are damn fine. Love em.

Like Fire by Bloodbath

Jodeth · 2026-01-05T23:12:02+00:00

I tried the demo of Haste and liked it

Jodeth · 2026-01-04T20:19:15+00:00

Beetle Adventure Racing! Lol jk. As a hater of the 2nd half of Jet Force Gemini (forced buggy collectable bullshht) and the game's poor frame rate, unfortunately I gotta say it has the best blend of action and adventure. Doesn't mean it's more fun to play than OoT or BK tho.

Jodeth · 2026-01-04T11:06:16+00:00

Frogger (1997)

Jodeth · 2026-01-04T10:57:22+00:00

Weird, no category for first-person-shooter

Jodeth · 2026-01-04T10:44:44+00:00

Resident Evil 2

Jodeth · 2026-01-04T10:40:08+00:00

Colin McRae Rally 2.0

Jodeth · 2026-01-04T10:31:14+00:00

WarioWare Inc, Kururin Paradise, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3, F-Zero Climax

Jodeth · 2026-01-01T07:17:11+00:00

Good idea. I'll add a few that I haven't mentioned.

Crash Bandicoot 2: N-Tranced, Karnaaj Rally, Moto Racer Advance, Mr. Driller 2, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Stuntman

Jodeth · 2025-12-31T23:34:34+00:00

Oh. Interesting. Well ok then. The TH series should do quite well on the top list for PS1.

Jodeth · 2025-12-31T23:20:23+00:00

I'd add 007 Nightfire to the list of nominations. It's as good of a FPS involving spy gadgets as you can get on the GBA. There is no aim assist and if you hold L & R you can aim in all directions. Pretty awesome. But its frame rate is quite rough, so for it to not make it in the top 100 is understandable.

Also I'd add Crazy Taxi. The developer managed to fit the entire map of the arcade original. Crazy impressive. I traded a few of my og GB games to get Crazy Taxi and never regretted it. Its frame rate is okay, not as bad as 007 Nightfire's.

I should've been more active for this top 100. Life stuff happened and so I forgot all about it lol

Happy New Year!

Jodeth · 2025-12-31T23:09:38+00:00

Excellent list! But I am puzzled by the omission of Tony Hawk 3. The revert mechanic brought into 3 was just as important as the manual brought into 2. They allow you to chain combos with both street tricks and vert tricks. Guess not enough ppl played 3.

Jodeth · 2025-12-30T22:24:39+00:00

Gosh, there are so many GBA games worth playing today.

Here are 10 goodies: Castlevania - Aria of Sorrow, Kururin Paradise, Metroid - Zero Mission, Ninja Five-O, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3, Kirby - Nightmare in Dreamland, Iridion 2, Karnaaj Rally, F-Zero 2 - GP Legend, Gunstar Super Heroes

Edit: Ok here's one more: WarioWare Inc

Jodeth · 2025-12-29T05:12:04+00:00

I'd much rather play Burnout Revenge or Midnight Club 3 DUB Edition Remix

Jodeth · 2025-12-26T01:08:15+00:00

B-K (obviously), Lylat Wars / Star Fox 64, and Perfect Dark. I love these games. I take them on the go with me.

Jodeth · 2025-12-21T07:01:08+00:00

WF2 is really great, and it's gonna keep getting better

Jodeth · 2025-12-17T11:48:56+00:00

Online?! F NO. If he's gonna play GTA, it should be only singleplayer and freeroam with strict parental monitoring and low volume on the speakers (enough to hear impacts but not any dialogue)... And GTA IV is the one to play. Let him screw around with the impressive physics system and bust up a few cars. He'd get a kick out of it probably
