Looking for some good Playstation imports

[VACRMH]

Anything you can suggest. 2D fighters and Shooters are the most important kind i'm looking for :)

Thanks!

Well, you should check out the Xenocide Files and search the forums at www.shmups.com for your Playstation import shooter needs. Many import shooters came out for both Saturn and Playstation, and in those cases I ended up buying the Saturn version (so I'm really not an expert in PS1 import shooties). I do like Gradius Gaiden for the Playstation (EDIT: and, as Captain Yashiro subsequently pointed out, ONLY for the Playstation), though, and I think that most of the shmupos here will back me up on that one.

Yer gonna hear this a lot, but Saturn is the way to go for 2D fighters and shmups. However, I think Gradius Gaiden is Playstation-only.

Here are a few practically essential PSX imports:

Vib Ribbon
Ore no Ryouri (My Cooking)
Namco Museum Encore (Rolling Thunder!)
Guitar Freaks
Guitar Freaks Append 2nd Mix

well it's cheezy in a B-grade move kind of way but I like Kamenrider and Kamenrider-V3. Not quote fond of later Kamenrider but those two are my favourite - probably because I watched them when I was in year 1 or 2.. :p

Ore no Ryouri (My Cooking)


I've been wanting to pick up a cooking-based game.
but there's so many, and I'm worried about which ones I can play without Japanese language. If this one's playable, I'll surely check it out! Thanks!

If you like Contra Clones, try "Gunner's Heaven".
