The original PlayStation launched on September 9th, 1995 in North America. And this was the very beginning of Sony’s risky journey into the video game business. Of course 30 years later the PlayStation brand has turned into a dominant force in the games business with so many breakthrough, genre defining experiences. But today me and Terell are going back to the beginning. Back to the basics if you will. We’re playing every PS1 launch game. What was there on the very first day? Was it worth it? Are these early 3D games the system seller that the PS1 needed? We’re here to answer all of these, and have a good time in the same process. Come join us, we’re having a good time. Because I think this here PS1 has a real shot at greatness.
