Longtime VGM podcast community member Chris Murray (aka justapunk) joins Ed for a look back at the PlayStation! Included in this show are some of their PS1 favorites. Chris shares some well-known classics, and as usual, Ed breaks out the obscure music that’s woefully overlooked. Look forward to music from Spyro, Suikoden, Hot Shots Golf, and more!
Do you have some PS1 faves you’d like to share? Let us know in the comments!
