I recently replayed Tom & Jerry for the PS1, a game that is clearly low budget but still is still fun to play, especially when playing against someone else.

This being the retrogaming community, I expect to hear about games up to the 360/PS3 era 😁

I picked up Summoner for PS1 forever ago and didn’t expect much. Turns out, it was pretty amazing.

Another was Phantom Fighter for NES. The music still gets stuck in my head lol.

Summoner on PS1? I can only find images of it for the PS2

I think you mean for the PS2. Did you watch the easter egg?

[-] loaf@sh.itjust.works 2 points 20 hours ago

Ah you’re right! Definitely PS2. I still have it somewhere packed away with a ton of other older games.

Nah uh? There’s an easter egg? (Runs to DDG)

It's on Youtube if you don't feel like digging the game out.

Woah I played Summoner on my Mac and loved it. I can't imagine how it would run on PS1 though 😅

[-] loaf@sh.itjust.works 2 points 22 hours ago

Oh it was awful on PS1 lol. Slow and choppy and yet still fun 😅

There was a sequel, but I never got a chance to play it (couldn’t find it)
