What are the most "forgotten" Playstation Exclusives? (Any Gen)
- Thread starter Jawmuncher

MiniMoni. Shakatto Tambourine! Dapyon!
A spiritual successor to the arcade/Dreamcast maracas rhythm classic Samba de Amigo, but with a tambourine. Shakatto Tambourine! was an arcade (NAOMI) game, which got a sequel revolving around idol group Mini-Moni, released only for the PlayStation.
Yes, the PS1. The only game Sega developed exclusively for that console.

Not going to claim it was any good, but I remember seeing Loaded at Blockbuster and it kind of defining the attitude of early Playstation.
Not an exclusive, was on Saturn as well (I remember a mate of mine had a copy).
Less then 10,000 people bought Puppeteer its launch month in us npd. Its definitely that. Sad as its one of their best.
It too way too long to get to Alundra, which I think speaks loudly for how forgotten it is.
Such a great game. Had it stuck to the original design it had the potential to go up against Zelda over time.
Well OP, you had the one game that came to my mind. I never even owned a PS2, but I bought Drakan: The Ancient Gate so I could rip and emulate it, as I wanted to know what happened after the original PC game.
I still want more games either in this series or that can so easily mix a third person hack and slash with dragon flight sim.

This counts?
I'd say this is more of a great hidden gem since a sequel came out on Xbox 360. For those that don't know, gameplay wise, Rumble Roses 1 is a spiritual successor to the old WWE/WWF Smackdown PS2 games that were amazingly fun to play. If you can get past the presentation of women in sexy clothing fighting in a ring, you'd find yourself having a really fun time with the gameplay. There were a handful of good games out there with great gameplay during this era that many people didn't play due to sexy or raunchy presentation, including DOA Xtreme Beach Volleyball(the first one), Aggressive Inline, P.N. 03, and the Outlaw Sports games.
Except for video game podcasters who love the joke saying From's next game will be Cookies n cream 2
A youtuber called Gaming Brit did a great couple of videos on the games.
Truly a classic really enjoyed it back in the days.
This is so bizarre, must've been some weird licensing agreement?MiniMoni. Shakatto Tambourine! Dapyon!

Only the games listed ONCE throughout this thread are the true winners, as no one but the poster actually remembers them. :D
There's one that I don't think anyone has mentioned yet. It did get a PC port, but I think that might be even more forgotten than the PS1 version. The original swashbuckling console adventure by Psygnosis; Overboard!
Puppeteer- first party Sony game, late in the PS3's life that was almost universally lauded as a great and immensely creative game, and no one really paid it any attention (commercially)
Most people I talk to don't remember Silent Bomber on PSX, but that game was amazing for the time! Surprised more games haven't built on or copied the bombing mechanics.

Random, but still think it's hilarious that Steve carrel was the commentator for outlaw golf.
Me rooting for Socom does not take away from your wanted titles.
Socom 4 launched during the day before the PSN was hacked basically. MAG was a good idea that was ahead of its time.. They can do better products without these issues/ If they go in on a good quality and high budget game, it would be good. In todays climate, it would be very good. IMO.
EDIT: there is a place for all these titles. But when i look at Sonys lineup. A socom like experience would greatly enhance it. Likewise, of course I want more rpgs or remakes and reboots.

I don't think it was an exclusive, it may have been. But Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks always needs more love.
Also.
Champions of Norrath and its sequel Return to Arms. These games with the PS2 multitap for 4 players.. It was an amazing experience with friends.

That game got two remakes.
Ape Escape, that series just disappeared.
Um jammer Lammy.
They remastered Parappa but not my gal Lammy.
Hell there isnt even a PS Classics edition available on the Pstore.
So sad.
That game is just perfect and parappa 2 was so bad. The games does deserve another release you are right
Apologies for large images.
Star Ixiom
Firebugs (spiritual successor to Rollcage)
Shadow Master

The actress was in Xena too. This is available on PS4 as a PS2 classic btw.
Game was way more fun than it had any right to be. Also...
Tiny Tank was easily a top 10 PS1 game for me.
I remember this solely because it was in a load of Vita bundles when I was buying one, and I was trying my hardest to find one that didn't include this lol.
This seems vaguely familiar, but I don't know if I played it. If I have, I've certainly forgotten it.
Played the demo for that game so much, I have never seen it mentioned anywhere outside of that demo disc i got with my PlayStation 2 back in the day.
Airblade was great. I played the demo a load too, but I did actually end up finding a copy of the full game in like 2011. I think it was the last PS2 game I bought.
Eh, Ape Escape did get a remake as well, to be fair.
I don't know if you can technically call Psygnosis's space station simulation-thriller PS1 game Sentient an exclusive since it was also released for PC, but it sure is unique and mostly forgotten.
I hate to be the guy that points out OP literally said ' we all know Tomba' but you need people like me to point my fingers at the keyboard and type you're the bad guy
Baito Hell or Work Time Fun.
It's a minigame collection game where you earn money to spend on capsule machines to unlock more work, useless items, and apps for your PSP, including the absolute best ramen timer. I only found out about this thanks to a giantbomb stream:

Now there's a forgotten game. Never did play it, but it was one of the first I thought of when thinking about games no one ever mentions. There was a bit of hype for it too around the time and then nothing.
Galerians is a cool wanna be Resident Evil, but actually not that bad! It's story is nonsense but the concept of RE with psychic powers is neat. Awful sequel.

This game was fucking sick! Great multiplayer. It was on the ser gamesy 2 plaame demo disc for downhill domination ps2 as well!
One of the best 2 player games of it's time.

So sad.
I would love to play Lammy again. After finally get a platinum on Parappa 1, Lammy would have been great.

Overbloor was a weird game that I never finished. I remember the beginning part was hard and once I figured what to do, the game was a lot easier.
Bring back Poy Poy
This was such a surprising gem.Truly forgotten and a solid arcade soccer game.
I have to buy this one, before Sony nuke the PS3 store. Is the game decent playing it on single player?
