Didn't get my PlayStation til Christmas 1998. Got a Saturn for Christmas 1996, I did like Tekken 2 and WipEout but at the time there was nothing on PlayStation that interested me, wasn't even my second choice, I was tempted to hold on til N64 came out for Mario 64
When I got my Saturn, NiGHTS, Sega Rally and Virtua Fighter 2 were by far the best games available in that generation. But the decline steadily started in 1997, by that time the PlayStation was in full flow. My fave games in order...
1. Resident Evil 1
2. Resident Evil 2
3. Tekken 3
4. Tomb Raider 1
5. Metal Gear Solid
6. Ridge Racer Type 4
7. Final Fantasy VII
8. Wip3out
9. Soul Blade
10. Tekken 2
