Ahh the first PlayStation
I remember playing one on launch day in Currys and being blown away by it, i'd just never seen anything like it (I had a 32x at the time). Simply amazing.
I was doing GCSE at the time and wasnt working yet, I remember asking my parents for one but never really expecting to get one. I came home one day, sat on my bed for a while reading a magazine and then went ot leave my room to find my parents stood by the door grinning at me...God knows how i 'd missed it but there under my TV was a shiny new PlayStation with a few controllers and WHOLE RACK of games
I had the likes of tomb raider, tekken 2, formula one, wipeout and i nearly cacked myself with joy. I'd been bought it under the proviso that I revised hard for the GCSEs and got good results....

I didnt revise AT ALL and played formula one with my mate every day for six weeks
Luckily i still got good grades, god knows how though
I STILL think the first playstation was the best console ever, just a relentlessly great lineup of games
