The ABCs of Playstation
Went to the store today and bought three PSX games: Austin Powers Pinball, Billiards, and Crash Team Racing. I had originally wanted Flintstones Bowling, but the guy said the disc was in bad shape, which makes me wonder why it was even in the store to begin with! I had no idea that PSX games are still so expensive 5 years after they discontinued the machine. Well, I guess it wasn't so bad as opposed to buying over the internet if you factor in the cost of shipping. Funny thing is, I forgot I bought the Playstation until just recently and I only had one game for it so I thought, why not buy some more and see what the system is like. It looks like they didn't have any 2D platformers though. They were selling Intelligent Qube for $35 with no manual or anything. What's the deal with that? Anyway, I'm looking for FIFA Soccer 2005 for PSX, which is the last PSX game ever released. I'm also doing research into homebrewing PSX games, but I wonder if I could pull anything off. Probably not. Chances are even slimmer if they don't use C. It's such a shame that there aren't more people like Mr. Quimby who make BASIC programs for other classic systems. You know, like Intellivision, Colecovision, Odyssey 2, etc. and then have the games you make actually work on real hardware.
