The Link Cable

The link cable is a forgotten peripheral that allowed PS1 gamers to hook two PS1 systems with two copies of a game that supports it for multiplayer action. Essentially, it was an early version of Lan play that would later be made famous by the Xbox with Halo. When I say Lan, I mean networked play that allowed you to play multiplayer with two TVs two PS1 consoles, and two copies of the game, and not networked like Xband on the Genesis/Snes, and later Saturn Netlink which allowed online play. Though the Jaguar port of Doom supported a similar link cable for netwrok play prior, the PS1 Link cable did it better, and was more widely supported than what the Jag had.

Here is the Disk Speed option screen. Make your selection with the X-button which will take you back out to the PlayStation Driver screen. Here is the Textur

Five Underrated PS2 Games: Part 3

Welcome to part 3 of five underrated PS2 games. This is not a top five list, and whether you use the term hidden gem, or underrated gem, these are games that, despite review scores, or pre-release coverage, were completely undervalued by the general gaming public. Maybe they were buried in the launch of a more popular game or busy season of high profile releases or just weren't in the popular tastes of gaming at the time. For whatever reason, these games quickly slipped into obscurity. If you've watched my channel for long, I have covered all of these at least once previously, if not more, so there won't be any big surprises for long time viewers. Number 1: Alien Hominid This game put players into the shoes of alien hominid, who's upon having his UFO shot down by none other than the F.B.I., is on a quest to recover his craft, and have his revenge.
