    Final Fantasy VIII
    Spanning four discs, this is a massive RPG. You can try and skate through it in 50 hours but can easily spend over a 100 hours playing if you decide to take on all of the side games, collect all of the Cards and experience all there is to experience from this game.

    Gran Turismo
    I would confidently say that this is the most in-depth and enjoyable racing experience ever created on and computer or videogame system.

    Gran Turismo 2
    The game is light-years ahead of its time - even with the handful of annoying 'glitches' that occasionally rear their ugly head within the game.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 97 Critic Score
    Final Fantasy VII
    This is the current apex in RPG games. In fact it is probably one of the best OVERALL games ever created for ANY system.

    Tekken 3
    A "better than arcade" overall game translation here that will truly stand the test of time and perhaps be the best fighter we will ever see released on the Playstation.

    Monster Rancher
    If you don't value your time to any great extent besides playing video games, give this gem a try. If it hooks you, it hooks you big time!

    Medal of Honor
    The graphics are a bit grainy but the fine animation and attention to detail more than make up for it. There are tons of secrets to open up, lots of game options and intense challenging gameplay.

    • 95 Critic Score
    Wipeout 3
    The inclusion of challenge and Deathmatch modes greatly enhance the gameplay, while the two player spilt-screen mode is sheer class. Add to this the hidden four player Split-screen-Link-up mode and.... well, what are you waiting for?

    Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
    Everything GTA3 was and so much more. Sweeping improvements have been made in gameplay, graphics and sound over the last incarnation.

    Resident Evil 2
    In every conceivable category, this game outclasses and outshines its predecessor by a wide margin. Gotta love it.

    Tomb Raider II
    A masterpiece... I loved every single minute of it and I'm off to start again to find all of the secrets.

    • 95 Critic Score
    Tomb Raider III
    In gameplay terms Lara's latest adventures are by far the best... but don't expect an easy ride... I say if you can't stand the heat.... then get out of the jungle.

    The Legend of Dragoon
    A fifty+ hour game, beautiful sound and graphics, and an interactive fighting system all wrapped in one great experience.

    SSX Tricky
    WOW, I thought SSX was a great game to begin with even more solid gameplay, yummy graphics and audio that just rocks... Tricky is just AWESOME !

    It's a horrifying action/adventure that will set the pulse racing and put the mind on constant alert.

    Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped
    A wonderfully presented game that truly goes beyond anything you are likely to find in this genre for any system. The sheer brilliance in the level designs and gameplay are sure to keep you coming back for more.

    Syphon Filter
    A wonderful game that manages to combine the action/mission based elements of "Goldeneye" with the military overtones of "MGS" into one slam blam package.
    • 97 Metascore
    • 94 Critic Score
    Grand Theft Auto III
    The control is infallible.
    • 91 Metascore

    Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver
    With drop dead graphics, haunting sound effects and non stop action it will leave you in a similar state last experienced with the original "Tomb Raider."
    • 94 Metascore
    • 93 Critic Score
    Metal Gear Solid
    The tense atmosphere and sense of urgency the game is able to generate is downright stunning. I often found myself gripping the controller so tight my knuckles would be turning white!

    • 93 Critic Score
    Wipeout XL
    The best arcade racer of its type on any format. While it takes some time to master the controls, it is time very well spent as it reveals this game to be a true classic.
    • 90 Metascore
    • 93 Critic Score
    Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy
    SWEET PACKAGE. The graphics are gorgeous and gameplay was an extremely nice experience as well as addictive.

    Final Fantasy X
    The storyline is marvelously weaved together with twists, turns and an amazing connectivity between the characters lives.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 93 Critic Score
    Tomb Raider
    If they sharpen up the graphics and provide fitting music then a ten out of ten is probable. Sheer class.

    ICO
    It was a completely absorbing game that I just did not wish to stop playing. Even when I took the occasional break, my thoughts seemed to always drift back to this fantasy world.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus
    I found the overall balance of the game to be much improved from its predecessor and the gameplay controls tweaked just right. I also liked the save anywhere at anytime feature.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    Crash Team Racing
    Combines all of the best elements from other kart racers, adds a few unique touches and throws out all of the crap. What gamers are left with is an exciting 2 to 4 player game and a very challenging 1 player mode.
