Over the course of the lifespan of the PlayStation 1, some games made it clear that things were never going to be the same again, and other games didn’t have that immediate impact. It’s the latter we’re focusing on here, with 10 PS1 games that were ahead of their time. From innovative features trapped on otherwise average releases, to excellent titles that simply came out too early in the PlayStation’s run to be properly appreciated, these are the games that told us in one way or another where the industry was headed, even if the games themselves didn’t know it.

After getting super into Elden Ring and even pulling a marathon monster stream of Shadow of the Erdtree that included a professional therapist talking him through his difficulties with the final boss, streaming star Kai Cenat is checking out the rest of FromSoftware’s back catalogue on stream. But Cenat isn’t just playing the beloved 2015 PS4 exclusive, Bloodborne for his own benefit⁠—he’s hoping his streams might help bring attention to the demand for a remaster and/or PC port.

These days, gamers have it pretty good with video game adaptations. From "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" to HBO's "The Last of Us," there have been enough high-quality adaptations to prove that pretty much game has a chance of becoming a good show or movie. That wasn't exactly true in the 1990s, when a bad case of video game movie whiplash transformed a generation of gamers into non-believers. 1995's "Mortal Kombat" was briefly seen as the gold standard for video game adaptations. It managed to somewhat faithfully recreate the convoluted lore of the "Mortal Kombat" franchise, but more importantly, it captured the essence of the characters and gave fans some thrilling fight scenes. Audiences were optimistic about the sequel — and then "Mortal Kombat: Annihilation" arrived and crushed everyone's faith in game adaptations for years.

Most who actually love gaming, rather than the tribalism that comes with it, will admit that the 'Console Wars' are silly and childish. To breathe life into them ever-slightly, it's fair to say that on the grand scale of things, PlayStation is usually the company among the big three that tends to come out on top more often than not, with the biggest swaying factor being the long list of PlayStation exclusives over the years.

Watching Let Me Solo Her destroy Malenia, you’d never know Elden Ring is difficult. The expert movements of top-tier players make the game’s challenge look trivial, but it’s as tough as anything else FromSoftware has cooked up. It’s so difficult that one Elden Ring player has announced a lawsuit against the developer, as reported by MP1st. The accusation? That “a whole new game is hidden inside” FromSoftware’s work, a game that most players aren’t good to ever see. It’s a bold claim, but is it true, and can the claim itself tell us anything new about the challenge of Elden Ring?

Banks has always been open about his drug use, and even documented much of it (within reason) in his rise on YouTube, particularly during the Clout House years when he lived with RiceGum, Alissa Violet, and the NELK Boys, among others.
