I think it is safe to say that Playstaion 1's days are numbered. I dont quite know why, some companies are still producing for this console, the few minority who dont have a new console is very small. Sure they cant afford it for whatever reason, but the reality is that the PS One is dead and buried. Just look at the top 3 games for it now. Dancing Stage Euromis 1, 2 and 3. Now 2 of these games were released about 2 years ago. GTA is still in the charts. Rayman is in the charts, the fate is over, PS One is over, and the PS2 is on!

So i beg all companies to leave the PS1 on a high and not release titles that look terrible, and dont play as well and leave the PS 1 as the console that WAS good, when it aCTUALLY IS GOOD IN ITS OWN RIGHT.

We dont need the brand New Fifa comeing in on PS1 and selling for twenty quid, its just not worth it. As for Harry Potter on PS 1, shops are selling it at 30 quid, a total rip off

Lets just forget about these worthless games coming out on a 7 year old console and one day when we are looking in the atic and we come acorss our PLaystation One, we wont think "what a piece of crap that was" wne we will be thinking,,... Ahhh, i rememeber you

Yeah, and thats the case for every console. No doubt that PS2 is a far more powerfull machine.

But still, the fact is the PS1 isnt dead just yet, its still got some backing behind it.

Oh Pro Evo I agree that it's not dead yet as many people still only have a PS1, but sooner or later it will die.

Although i use my PS2 for it, i still play many of my old PS1 games on it, as some of these games really are classics, and if you can put your eyes past the slightly dated visuals these games are still capable of being better than many of the better games today. Not many newer games out today can beat the likes of MGS and the Resi series, and where else are you going to play the early FF games?

As long as all these PS1 games keep there appeal, the PS1 wont be dead for a while.

Yea, its quite good how you can still use Psone games on the Ps2.None of the other consoles can do that.It also benfits on you, so you dont have to sell all your good games.
I mean, if i had to sell my FF9 and FF7...id be bored all the while!
