Product Description: This is the thin, white, PSOne. The Playstation system allows you to play such great games as Final Fantasy VII, Crash Bandicoot, Metal Gear Solid, Spyro the Dragon and Resident Evil
Amazon.com Review: If the original PlayStation was the video game console equivalent of the '60s-era Volkswagen Beetle--economic, reliable, loads of fun--the PS One could be considered the new Beetle--a hip restyling of those same qualities.
Make no mistake: the PS One has all of the same functionality as the original PlayStation workhorse, will work with all of the same peripherals and accessories, and will play the existing PlayStation game library, as well as audio CDs (also note that, like the original PlayStation, it's not compatible with the more advanced PlayStation 2). The difference here is that this new model is quite a bit smaller than its older brother, and quite a bit cuter, too.
The system is made up of a 32-bit, 34-MHz RISC processor with 16 Mbits of main memory, 8 Mbits of graphics memory, 24-channel stereo sound, double-speed CD-ROM drive, and one Dual Shock analog controller. That's not a lot of power, compared to a next-generation system like the Sega Dreamcast; but, when you factor in its very low price and the enormous library of games that are available (more than 1,000 that are spread across every genre imaginable), one can see easily why it's as good a deal as ever. If rumors of exciting future accessories for the PS One (a four-inch LCD screen attachment, to name one) are true, this little machine could become a great option for the on-the-go gamer. --Porter Hall
Now old school. This system is still a personal favorite. Now outdated it still provides plenty of entertainment with its variety of games.
Fair: but what more can you expect from a used item The Playstation order came functional but had a few problems. The CD-player had troubles staying closed. Also the power button would not stay held down meaning it would keep popping back up and turning the console off. However i eventually got it to stay closed but occasionally have to put a stack of coins on top of the button to keep it on. Overall I would rate the product fair because although it had a few problems it was after all used and I knew that while purchasing, plus it still works and plays games without a problem.
This old game system was great then and still is now! For a reasonable amount of money you can't beet getting a good deal on a used gaming system. It was great then and still great today I wouldn't change nothing.
The Truth I recently purchased a PSone System and it did arrive as described and on time. I immediately hooked it to the TV and put in the game I already had and it fired right up. It was 8 years since I last played the PSone, but when the game came on and I began to play, it brought back memories. The PSone still worked like before and I highly recommend this for everybody.
Very Good! Very good console. Sony came out with alot of fun games to play on this system. Just make sure you don't touch the little round lens in the console or you will be very sorry.
