TDIRunner | 2,841 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 While I have the long term goal of eventually owning a full set of PS1 games, it may still be several years before I can accomplish such a thing. In the mean time, it can be fun to complete smaller subsets. The other night I found the last Need for Speed game that I was missing for PS1. It's not rare or anything, but I hardly ever see V Rally 2, so I was happy to finally pick that game up. I've also completed several other subsets that I plan to picture here. So feel free to share any subsets of games you have. Of course, there are other variants to these games, but here are all of the black label NFS games on PS1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pendragonx | 117 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Ah nice! There's so many Need For Speed series I never know how many of them there are, so that's cool to see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammerfestus | 4,026 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 I’m really not actively collecting PS1 any more but I amassed quite a collection and had quite a bit of fun digging through all of the scattered info on different subsets and uncommon titles and stuff. Ultimately moving forward in life and not being able to outrun rising prices broke my fullset dreams. I had a lot of fun completing the long box set some years back. It’s a good sized subset so it should keep you busy awhile and not overly pricy. Those cases will drive you nuts though. I also got into collecting the greatest hits titles for a while. It’s a thing that most people don’t really collect as a set so I had quite a bit of fun just hunting for information and learning tidbits wherever I could. Some of the rarest games on the system are hidden away in there. I still will pick up Lightspan stuff if I can find any that aren’t the same commons that are in every lot. Collecting these started to feel like madness as the only real helpful info I could find came from some ancient digitpress articles. I ended up going to Dangerboy because of how little information on this set is on the internet. It’s a shame that we lost PlaystationAge, it really was a treasure trove of information that you couldn’t find in a lot of other places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner | 2,841 Posted February 26, 2020 Author Share Posted February 26, 2020 Here is another racing series that I loved back during the PS1 era. I don't think these games have aged as well as the NFS series, but the huge jumps on the San Francisco track in TD4 were amazing and the original TD Off Road was pretty ahead of its time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner | 2,841 Posted February 26, 2020 Author Share Posted February 26, 2020 And of course, my favorite game series on the PS1. The original Tomb Raider was one of the two games I received on Christmas morning along with my PS1. I had no idea what the game was that morning. My parents bought it based on a recommendation from a Best Buy employee and I was completely blown away by how amazing the game was (and still is to this day). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are so many subsets that I'm only missing one game for. I have all of the RR games, but my copy of the first game is pretty crappy, so I would prefer to replace it before taking a picture of the set.

MiamiSlice | 3,109 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Here my 3 subsets! The Point Blank games were the hardest to track down. Someday I would like to replace Wipeout with the long box version... someday... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner | 2,841 Posted February 27, 2020 Author Share Posted February 27, 2020 Two more series that I really enjoy. I still need to add a few black labels to these. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The San Francisco course was epic. Racing down the interstate trying not to crash into traffic, the huge jumps in town, and trying to avoid the cross traffic all blew my mind back in the day. Back then, I loved the idea of "point to point" races and not many games offered that. I also had a lot of hours in the original Test Drive Off Road. It doesn't hold up as well today, but it was extremely fun when it first came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDIRunner | 2,841 Posted July 9, 2020 Author Share Posted July 9, 2020 Here is another subset that I know you will all be jealous of. Every Barbie game for the PS1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calan87 | 45 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 @TDIRunner OK, i see these sets that you have and then i see Barbie..... My question is: WHERES SPYRO?! WHERES ODDWORLD!? WHERES LUNAR!? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My question is: WHERES SPYRO?! WHERES ODDWORLD!? WHERES LUNAR!? lol When I started this thread, I was only planning on showing subsets that had at least 3 games, although there is certainly nothing wrong with including subsets with only 2 games. And I guess if you really wanted to, you could include subsets with only 1 game. I mean, back at NA, we used to have an award for a full Earthbound "set." As far as Spyro, I'm actually missing the first game. For some reason, I've actually had a hard time finding that one complete. It seems like the manuals for most copies of that game grew legs and walked away. There are still many other subsets that I'm only missing one game for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I'm kicking myself cuz all the $10 games are $30 games now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner | 2,841 Posted July 9, 2020 Author Share Posted July 9, 2020 OK. I forgot that I had the GH version of Spyro, so I'll post this for now until I can find the proper black label version. All three games were available as black label, greatest hits and collector's edition. Eventually, I would like to have all 9 copies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner | 2,841 Posted July 9, 2020 Author Share Posted July 9, 2020 I guess I'll start including 2 game sets as well. Here are the Oddworld games including Greatest Hits version. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
