PlayStation turns 20 in Japan

Nov 13, 2014 // GregaMan

Yesterday PlayStation celebrated its twentieth anniversary in Japan. Man:  that was fast. Seems like just yesterday we were all sitting around playing Jumping Flash and watching “Full House” reruns. 

Anyway, they’ve whipped up a beauiful video for the occasion, and danged if it don’t make video games seem like the best thing since breakfast. So hit the jump, click the play button, crack open a delicious soda pop, and take a moment to recount your favorite (Capcom) PlayStation memories.

As for me, I’ll always remember the incredible impact the first two Resident Evils and  Mega Man Legends had on me on the original PlayStation. The former changed the very way I thought about what games could be. The latter shocked me with its ability to completely reinvent a well-established IP with something pretty much completely unprecedented in form or scope.
