  • The wait is finally over. I finally have my PS1 Greatest Hits collection complete. In this video, I display the complete subset, talk about some harder to find games including showing Toy Story 2 and NFL Blitz 2000. Thank you to Justin LaClair and Mr. Jordan for making this possible.

    I have to say that I am one those who don't specifically pursue after greatest hits. But I see your point in hunting those subsets down. Very interresting and challenging. You have done great job there. I wish you best of luck for PS2 Greatest Hits subset

      Robokoffy why,they are cut down cheaper useless versions. Throw them in the trash.

    • @vivisect53
      @vivisect53 5 років тому +4

      They are the same games though so that makes no sense. How are they useless? Some greatest hits type releases are rarer and more valuable in some cases.

    I'm so happy you finally found those last greatest hits games especially NFL Blitz 2000. I have been looking myself for over a year after reading about it from you and never even saw one for sale. Also thank you for documenting and showing the discs for these rare games because I I have never seen more than one blurry video of that greatest hits disks online and barely any pictures. That is a true gem.

    Awesome video, John! PS1 Greatest Hits games looked the best IMHO. I actually owned a complete Dreamcast Sega All Stars collection a few years back, and while the popular titles usually commanded a higher price the were easy to find. Ready To Rumble boxing were so elusive that I almost thought it was a myth. Great work putting this together! I’ll make sure these games get added to our list. Cheers!

  • @elsanctuariogamer5446
    @elsanctuariogamer5446 5 років тому +6

    • @vivisect53
      @vivisect53 5 років тому +1

    Awesome pick ups John with the Toy Story 2 and NFL Blitz 2000. I specifically collect PS1 Greatest Hits CD's since I'm not going to collect the entire PS1 library. Way to many games. Some Sega All Stars Dreamcast games are getting difficult to find also.

    As far as my own preference, I usually buy whatever the better version is IF there was a revision such as a few of the final fantasy ports or Ps2 games like Jak X Combat racing etc.
    Congrats on your collection, and I can't wait to see your complete Ps2 greatest hits video! :)

    @xxnike0629xx 5 років тому +2

    I think very few people go after the _Greatest Hits_ version of PlayStation games. I remember the struggle of eBay hunting PS1, PS2, and PS3 games to find the original 'black label', non-Greatest Hits version, factory sealed.
    It's still pretty cool to see a complete PS1 Greatest Hits collection.
    But if I am being honest, the PS1 had its place in my gaming history but the games on the PS1 have not aged well; not to mention the resolution, fps, load times, missing frames of animation, etc.
    The PS1 days were amazing for gaming since that's when I had way more free time and I had a lot of fun. But I'm glad that on the PS4, a lot of games are being remastered, ported, or remade so that I can experience the games again but with tech of modern day gaming.
    I think that the PS1 gen had great games and more motivated developed. But it was held back by the lack of powerful hardware that we have now. These days, we have the hardware to produce amazing games, but we don't really get AAA quality games as often, and developers are getting lazy by releasing unfinished games being dependent on firmware updates and DLC released later.

    Cool video. I usually treat GH versions as a black eye on my collection. Never really thought of treating them as a subset worthy of collecting. My first thought was no way there was only one Madden GH, but it actually makes sense that EA wouldn't deeply discount Madden when they release a new one every year at the same time.

    Xenogears, I'd do anything to see that game remastered someday. Most underrated PS1 JRPG in my opinion. It's still one I go back to almost yearly as it's just pure gold. The story line is enthralling and the end game fights have a solid difficulty, lots of exploration and awesome cinematics. Unfortunately I only own it digitally currently as I sold it with my black label FFs years ago but fully intend to recollect them soon.
