Playstation ONE, Still The Worlds Most Popular Games Console
With Sony releasing the Playstation Two this Christmas, the Playstation One (The Original Playstation) has been a little overlooked. However Sony’s first step into the console market is still The Worlds, and Britain’s most Popular Games Console.
Plus, with so many Playstation One’s already out there, which presents a big userbase companies are likely to keep producing quality games for the next few years.
There’s never been a better time to own a Playstation One, with classic games such as Driver , MetalGearSolid , Crash Bandicoot 3 , Resident Evil 3 , Toy Story 2 and Tekken 3 now available for under £20. With many other great games such as Tomb Raider 2 even cheaper at only £9.99. Plus as the Playstation One has the largest selection of games available for any games console, meaning there are games available to cater for all tastes.
If you’ve never owned a Games Console the Playstation One is a good starting point, and can be picked up cheaply from Special Reserve for only £79.99. Heres what you get:
A Playstation One with a Dual Shock Controller, RF Lead Plus a Free Extra Controller and Free 1MB Memory Card.
As for those of us already lucky enough to own a Playstation One you’ll be glad to see that theres a load of great new releases available this for this Christmas, heres just a few of the great new games that are coming out this Christmas:
Driver 2 , Ready 2 Rumble Boxing Round 2 , 007 - The World Is Not Enough , DinoCrisis 2 , WWF Smackdown 2 , Medal of Honour Underground , Alien Resurrection , Tomb Raider 5 Chronicles.
So if your looking for a great console with some great games (at an affordable price) this Christmas then you cant go wrong with a Playstation One.

The playstation games may not look as good graphically as some of the new N64 or Playstation 2 games, however they play just as well. The Driver games are probably my favourite playstation games, along with the Resi games and I havent played a PS2 game yet that is as addictive as either series of games.
aaaa
just let off some steam in the n64 column,the playstation still is a phenomenon,i have a ps2 and still play my collection of about 40 playstation games and they are still as good now as they were then.

The playstation is the most popular console that was designed to be plugged into a TV, however the Gameboy (a handheld which has its own built in display) has sold more units than the playstation.
Both machines are very successfull for what they are. The GameBoy was sucessfull because it has survived 10 years, the playstation so because it was made by Sony a newcommer to the industry. Both machines have great games.

You insert games carts to play games...just like you do with N64, you insert disks into PS's so it is a console! And it's what kept Nintendo at the top! In fact if I remember correctly EA didn't get anywhere near as good as Nintendo and Sony weren't far behind EA....

Well, the Gameboy can't be classed as a games console really.
It's tiny, it's a lot cheaper (or was)and really is a more of a handheld, not a games console.

sulry the gameboy is the most popoular console
Look Guys, the machine has good games it has turkeys too! But thats not the machines fault but the fault of people who make dodgey games, so stop dishing the machine. The N64 has had some Turkeys too, remember FIFA 64, dire is not the word. But then again ISS 2000 on the N64 is argueably one the best footy game ever.
If you buy the right games then any machine can provide hours, days, weeks and even months of fun.
