PlayStation in General Reviews

With this formerly essential piece of hardware now entering its Twilight years I feel its about time I dared to review it! So starting off with how old my little grey companion is, I actually bought this by saving up my minimal wagest that I earned on the NVQ scheme (£40 a week - full time work!) and to be honest I fluked it - the day I ...  Read the complete review

1996 was a good year for me. It was the year I purchased my playstation. I always remember walking into dixons and handing over £380 for a playstation console and 6 games, that was a lot of money for me at the time, but I have since reaped many hours enjoyment from the machine. To someone looking for their first step into home video ...  Read the complete review

With the imminent arrival of PS2 how long before the original PSX becomes a cult games console? Lets face it , at the moment there is no better console on the market (that includes the dreamcast , or should I call it nightmarecast) although that great prize of being top console will soon be handed to PS2. The games choice alone is immense and ...  Read the complete review

I have been a very satisfied Playstation owner since the second week of its release - I upgraded to the modern version of the Playstation and still find it an amazing creation from sony - considering it was originally a CD adaptation of the SNES but after Nintendo fell out with Sony it became one of the best selling, looking and feeling games ...  Read the complete review

The Sony Playstation 2 is due for release in the UK in October 2000, but why do UK customers have to pay so much more for this product compared with the rest of the world, often twice as much? It doesn't cost any more to make, it can't be because of extra advertising, the product will sell its self. Lets hope the price falls quickly. But ...  Read the complete review

The Playstation is currently the best console available. Now is the best time to get one. They're as cheap as they'll ever be, and they are cheap. They have a great range of games, and they aren't expensive either. You can pick many of the top titles up second hand. There are many classic games - Gran Turismo, Tomb ...  Read the complete review

Great console. It has the looks, power and the games to get it to the top. That was until playstation 2 came along with more power, greater detailed games,a dvd player and brilliant titles such as metal gear solid 2 and driver 2. It can also play the old playstation games! Which will be better? I dont know. Perhaps the playstation 2. ...  Read the complete review

I have been using a playstation for two years now (it's for my kids, honest) and I only really have one complaint. There is an excellent link cable system to link two playstations together but it is hardly ever utilised. If you have never tried it, get a friend to come round with a playstation, 14" TV and two copies of Destruction ...  Read the complete review

The Playstation is arguably the BEST console ever to be brought to the world. OK the graphics are not the best, but the gameplay offered by the games available, its ease of use and huge range of accessories are all the best. There is now thousands of games available for the PSX and some of them are deemed classics e.g. Gran turismo, Tekken, Crash ...  Read the complete review

Although I am a mature woman (but young at heart), I still like to have fun and play games. I used to be a 'Sonic the Hedgehog' freak but then along came the Sony Playstation. At first it was very expensive to buy, but as the years have gone by it is now very fairly priced for what you get. This console keeps both my sons busy ...  Read the complete review

The 5-year-old playstation still exists and will still be the best console until PlayStation 2 comes into Britain. There are thousands of games available for the console.

I bought a Playstation last Christmas. I had been desperate to get one, because I played games around a friends house on her machine, and though it was just amazing. The problem was, I played like a maniac for ages, and then I just lost interest in it. It isn't that the games weren't good, or that the graphics and handling ...  Read the complete review

Without doubt the best cricket sports game on the platstation. I have been playing this game for about 12 months and the challenges are still as addictive as day one especially if you decide to take a gamble and play as England!! Although hard at first to really master the controls and time the ball, batting is definately the preferred option ...  Read the complete review

My favourite are driving simulators like Gran Turismo 1 and 2, Colin Mcrae and of course V Rally 2, and Games utilizing the G Con gun like Point Blank 1 and 2, and Time Crisis. I just lose track of time ...  Read the complete review

The Sony PLaystation literally turned around the Video gaem industry. Bringing the respected ony name into the field had finally given the gaming public some degree of credibility. Gone were the days when the only people who played Video games were sad little acne-ridden teenagers who hid from daylight and generally found abode in their ...  Read the complete review
