Here is a thread in which we talk about old playstation 1 games.
I recently discovered Warhawk. This gem by Single Trac has multiple endings.

There was a remake on the PS3, but it was online multiplayer only. They kinda missed the point.

There is a squaresoft action RPG called Threads of Fate (also know as dewprism in some regions) that is really good. It has two separate main characters, each with their own storyline (which covers the same stretch of time). The male main character can transform into monsters he's defeated recently, and the female character can use magic spells (which are not selected from a list, but are created by combining a 'color' and an 'effect' from the colors and effects you have unlocked). To get the 'true' endings for the games, you have to beat a character's story using a save file that has clear data from their partner's story (to get the super super true ending you have to beat the game once with a save that has clear data for both characters). It also has music that slaps:
The intro and ending. Spoilers.

Which eventually led us to one of the great underrated games of the genre... or at least unrecognised by many. You either don't know of it, or you love it. I give you... Rival Schools.

That makes me sad.

Also, Bushido Blade is one of the best fighting games of all time.
Do... Re... Mi... So... Fa.... Do... Re.... Do...
Forget it...
I still need to get Bushido Blade.
I have been focusing on playing Final Fantasy 9 right now.

The UK demo discs were trippy. The US ones were just weird sometimes.

It looks like it is around $50 on eBay. Blarg.
I remember playing a lot of Treasures of the Deep
You can get that one for around $20 on eBay. PS1 games jump around in price nowadays.
I know it is not that rare. eBay inflation.
Often the way. Even games that sold millions command(ed) high prices and people would be like "OMG that's so RARE!". Not necessarily.
Thinking things like non-Greatest Hits copies of FF7 in the early '00s.
Granted, Bushido Blade didn't sell quite as well as that...

Heeellll yeah. Listen to that world. Gosh it did have great atmosphere. Unfortunately it sold itself on "YOU CAN BE THE T.REX!!!" and, while yes, you can, I would say at least 50% of the T.rex levels have you walking on actual magma, so your health drains constantly even when you're not getting machine-gunned by literal armies of InGen mooks, and to top it off, the rex is a total bear to control.

I guess it's a pretty okay game...:cough:
Huh, I've apparently never seen Bushido Blade before. I thought I had, but I seem to have confused it with something else.
Anyway, Colony Wars! Those games were great. I barely played the first one, but I spent a ton of time with both the sequels. The second one even had a cool branching path story, which blew my mind at the time.
*not pictured are my 7 physical copies including one still sealed*
Yes...Yes it is.
I love that game. One of my all time favs.

Fuck Joe Manchin
Yeah. That one is like $180 on eBay. I managed to get it a long time ago when it was cheaper.
I noticed a copy of Medievil that I have must have been polished in a polishing machine. The outer edge of the disc was rounded a little bit.
Fuck, really?
.... I gotta go to the basement.

This video is Ambien.
I still have the OST, which I got at the time by ripping it directly from the disc, on my current phone. It's made every transition with my music collection.
Tomba 1 and 2 are also in the hundred dollar range.
Those I knew, they were always rare. But Brave Fencer didn't have any value until I guess the last couple years. I've been holding onto it because the going $20-30 was in the "I'd rather keep it" range, but for $180? That'll go.
