Well, I don't know about PS1/2, but I know this: Pacman is the best game EVER.

PS1:
Point Blank. Best played in 2 player mode (2 lightguns). Amazing game.

PS2:
Monkey Ball Deluxe - which is based on the origininal monkey ball games. Basically loads of weird japanese party games rolled into one. All involve monkeys which makes it ever more brilliant.

As you can probably tell my house likes weird Japanese party games. Mario Kart 64 and Mario Tennis are awesome as well!

All on Mega drive

Streets of Rage
Shinobi
Golden Axe
Columns
Road Rash

Game Gear

Olympic Gold

There was another game on the game gear, where you were these different animals.  You first started of as a boy with a crap sword, who then turned into a dragon who could breathe fire.  Then into this small man who could climb these special walls, ,  then into a lion with a huge sword, then into a bird who could fly - but lost life under water.

Tetris, Asteroids

Chuckie Egg on the old bbc.

Think someone said Monkey Island. Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2 also pretty funny.

Original Mario Kart on the snes
Some of the old skool final fantasies, any of the snes ones and 7

Although as you said ps1 then I think ff7 is the only thing I can think of.

Do you remember Eugene's lair with the moving toilets?

Vaguely :? , a miss spent youth on class A's means my memory is patchy at best. :D  I know I used to get pissed off trying to load tapes/games on my commodore 64 though!

Paperboy was ace too!

underdogs site is fucking awesome. you can get classics on their including Metal Gear Solid 1 and System Shock 2.

If you wanna play golden axe and streets of rage. get a genesis (what the mega drive was called in the rest of the world) emulator, best bet is at http://www.gens.ws/

then get the roms for the games from http://www.romnation.net/srv/roms/genesis.html

There are roms for SNES on that site aswell see below. probably some NES ones too, although not certian.

If someone wants some more snes roms.. not sure the romnation one has the classic marios... try http://www.nerologic.com/

best snes emulator is at http://zsnes.ipherswipsite.com/

any other system emulator can probably be found at www.zophar.net

hope that covers some of it.
