Ps1 Games choice

Playstation games will forever be famous for their black colouring on the underside of the disc. The game cases we made specifically for the games and much like the Sega Dreamcast cases they are easily damaged more difficult to replace than that of a normal cd case. Some titles came in standard double cd cases like the Sega Mega CD games, this makes replacements easier and cheaper.

Most memorable ps1 games

Everyone will have played the Crash Bandicoot games and Spyros game on the console. The introduction of Metal gear Solid made by Konami and written by Hideo Kojima the Man behind Snatcher for the Sega Mega CD system.
