9 ꩵ Blo𒉰od Omen: Legacy Of Kain

Mohg, Omen of Blood and servant of the Formless Mother in Elden Ring

Before Soul Reaver, there was Blood Omen. Before Raziel, there was Kain. The original Legacy of Kain game certainly hasn't aged gracefully on the visual fron🍃t, but narratively speaking, it's still a nigh-unparalleled tale in the annals of the first two years of the PlayStation 1.

With brilliant scenes and suitably visceral gameplay, this one's a m💙ust-play, especially in light of the recent Soul Reaver 1 and 2 remasters.

8 Tekken 2

Tekken 2 promo image of characters lining up in front of a cloudy sky.

Long before Namco merged w♈ith Bandai to become (wait for it) Bandai Namco, the publisher began its first big series of fighting games with the original Tekken for the Sony PlayStation. It was a hit, with two more sequels on the way for console♒ and several more entries for the generations to come.

Most Tekken games are fun in their own right, but Tekken 2 is among the most fantastic of the bunch. The sequel added a slew of new mechanics, as well as introducing big-name char♒a🍎cters like Lei Wulong and Jun Kazama. Plus, there's Roger, a kangaroo. That's a tragic Tekken 2 exclusive if ever there were one.

7 🌳 🐲 Wild Arms 3

Wild Arms 3's Virginia Maxwell reloading her pistol

Enough time has passedꦰ since the last Wild Arms for the series to fade almost completely into obscurity, only for a recent Kickstarter success project to take the reins as its spiritual successor, Armed Fantasia.

That... s🍸till might not mean a thing to some readers, granted, but it's cool that it's hap♏pening for Media Vision's old JRPG series.

Wild Arms is a special thing, you see - it's a distinctly Western JRPG. No, we don't mean it's influenced by The Witcher. We mean it's set on a fictional pla🃏net's rendition of the Am𓆉erican Wild West. Take that, add loads of JRPG tropes, and you've got yourself a recipe for (modest) success.

6 Dark Cloud 🌺

Main character of Dark Cloud looking at the camera with the silhouette of a town behind him.

Level-5 used to deliver slam-dunk RPGs on an eye-wideningly swift basisꦇ, and Dark Cloud's one of their best. Part role-playing game, part build-a-thon, a🧜nd joined by a sensational soundtrack, Dark Cloud remains one of the most groundbreaking games of its era. It's beloved among a slim but dedicated fanbase, and we want Dark Cloud 3, darn it.

5 Dino Crisis 💮 🅷

Dino Crisis

The first and second entries in the Dino Crisis trilogy are spectacular stuff. The third... not so much. But heꦦy, both of Regina's entries? They've been mak🦩ing us pine for something new, anything new, from Capcom's Dino Crisis IP for decades.

We still p🍌refer the first, with its survival-horror angle, over the second's more high-octane action approach. Good thing, then, that if only one of them is up on PlayStation Plus Classics, it's the inaugural outing. Still, it wouldn't hurt to add the second!

4 🌠 Harvest Moon: Back T🦩o Nature

Harvest Moon Back To Nature screenshot of characters talking next to hospital.

One of the best entries in Harvest Moon's storied history - that's a terrible pun on the fact that the series is called Story of Seasons in Japan, you see, and new entries from the original team get the SoS license e♊ven abroad - anyway, enough with the hyphen-touting tangent.𓃲 The point is, Harvest Moon: Back to Nature is a treat.

If you're into farming sims, and goodness, there are so many of them these days💖, then you'll understand the basic setup here. Harvest Moon's all about the farming, whether that means planting crops, nurturing cows, or uh, getting a wife. Or a husband! You can, in fact, play as a girl instead. Remarkably, the story is different if you do.

3 Twis꧂ted Metal 2

Twisted Metal 2: Freeze Attack

If you were a PlayStation gamer in the mid-late '90s, 🥀there's a good chance you dabbled in at least one of the five Twisted Metal games (1 through 4 and, if you're especially unfortunate, Small Brawl) released on PS1. But ask any fan of this long-dormant series which one's their favorite, and there's a pretty good chance it's Twisted Metal 2.

A sweeping enhancement from the original across the board released just a year afterward, Twisted Metal 2 features more cars and drivers, more exciting stages with greater div♏ersity and deeper design, and the arrival of Minion, one of the PlayStation library's most infamous bosses.

As bea🔯t-em-ups go, Vanillaware knocked it out of the park with the gorgeously detailed, superbly exhilarating, Dragon🀅's Crown. And Dragon's Crown Pro amps it all up with 4K resolution and matching image quality. It's the best way to play one of the very best 2D action-RPGs ever made.
