The Legend of Dragoon

Release: 1999 (Japan), 2001 (Europe)

The Legend of Dragoon is one of those titles that have been gaining fame and impact over time more than the feeling they left in their time. Although personally it has always been a title that I loved, the reviews of the time did not encumbrate it as an outstanding title, its current average in Metacritic is closer to 70 than 80. Anyway if you still have the game in your collection, You have to know that you have a jewel, because it is a game with a high value in the second-hand market.

Syphon Filter

Release: 1999

Unlike the previous one, Syphon Filter was a game acclaimed by both the public and the press. Its current average in Metacritic is 90 points and it reflects the success of the game in its day. The game was defined in its day as a mixture between the great GoldenEye and Metal Gear, thus conquering the hearts of the fans.

Driver

Release: 1999

Although many keep the first installment of Driver in the heart, the truth is that it would be a difficult franchise to recover. In any case, maintaining its essence would not be a simple task, since the game would have to evolve further from its zenith perspective to offer a true 3D game in the most GTA style if it wanted to return to the market.

Parasite Eve

Release: 1998

Aya Brea is the protagonist of another of the most beloved titles in the PlayStation 1 catalog. Parasite Eve was a horror game that mixed fear with role and exploration. The game was taking place in New York to reuse the work that Square Enix had done creating the city for Final Fantasy VII even though it was not finally the city chosen for that video game.
