▶ Which PS1 RPGs Do We Recommend?

These are the PS1 RPGs we recommend at The Old School Game Vault, and why.

  1. Final Fantasy VII: A memorable cast, a story that pulled a lot of players into RPGs for the first time, and a Materia system that lets you build your party your way. Read how its length compares to today’s RPGs.
  2. Chrono Cross: A story built around parallel worlds and destiny, with standout music and impressive visuals for its time.
  3. Xenogears: A huge story on an ambitious scale, mixing on-foot battles with giant mech fights.
  4. Suikoden II: A story of friendship, betrayal, and heroism, with over 100 characters to recruit.
  5. Grandia: Bright 2D and 3D graphics and a battle system that rewards timing.
  6. Dragon Warrior VII: Classic Dragon Warrior gameplay with a long adventure and a job system.
  7. Breath of Fire IV: Two connected storylines and dragon transformations, as the series hits its stride.
  8. The Legend of Dragoon: It looks like a standard RPG at first, but timed button combos and a rewarding story set it apart.
  9. Vagrant Story: An ambitious adventure with impressive 3D graphics and a deep weapon crafting system.
▶ Which PS1 Consoles and Accessories Should I Look For?

Explore PS1 consoles and accessories for saving games, multiplayer, light gun games, and more. Check The Old School Game Vault’s listings for current availability.

  1. PSone Slim Console: The one I prefer nowadays. In my experience, its disc drive holds up much better than the original console’s.
  2. PSone LCD Screen: Plugs directly into the PSone Slim, so you can play without a TV.
  3. Memory Card: PS1 games save to a memory card, not the disc, so you need one to keep your progress.
  4. Konami Justifier: Konami’s light gun for games like Area 51 and Crypt Killer. It needs an older CRT TV to work.
  5. GunCon: Namco’s light gun for Time Crisis and Point Blank. These games don’t work with the Justifier, and most Justifier games don’t work with the GunCon.
  6. Multitap Adapter: Adds extra controller ports for supported multiplayer games, including four-player sports and racing titles.
  7. Original SCPH-1001 Console: The original PlayStation, and the only North American model with built-in composite audio and video (RCA) outputs on the back. Its separate RCA audio outputs also make it convenient to connect to a stereo for playing CDs.
