Well GAF it's time for my first thread. Did not expect it to be on this but hey why not.
So I was working at my desk in my room when I decided to play some DVD's to distract myself with. My PS3 stays in the den so my only option was to either play on my laptop or on my PS2. I chose my PS2. I turned it on and after taking FFXII (the main reason I still have a PS2) out and putting it in its case I left it sitting on the browser.
So i was fumbling through my shelf to get something to watch when i moved a stack of PS1 games I haven't touched in a long time. Now I'm already in a nostalgic mood from watching Based Bosman and that giveaway from Ramuh earlier in the "Free To A Good Home" thread so I pause for moment to see what I had. Klonoa, Legaia, Wild Arms 2, Crash 2, Crash 3, Interactive CD Sampler Disc Volume 4....................Nostalgia overload! (Seeing my Monster Hunter Tri Demo Disc and my Holiday 2005 Demo Disc for PS2 and my Metroid Prime Hunters First Hunt
case didn't help at all).
Needless to say i popped this sucker in immediately. This demo disc came with my PS1 so obviously it was a cherished memento to my childhood. The background music was godly and the demo selection was just mouthwatering. Parappa the Rapper, Armored Core, Croc, Raystorm, Steel Reign, Intelligent Cube, Ace Combat 2 + others. This thing D-E-L-I-V-E-R-E-D! I always kept it. At one point i thought it stopped working and I left it in crate-o-games at the time. Decided to clean it off years later and it was good as new.
So before I even load it up on the PS2 from the browser screen I was surprised to see that it had 2 audio tracks on the disc. GAF I wasn't ready. A demo disc from 1997 is STILL delivering!
EDIT: While typing this up the disc started playing trailers for each game. Didn't even know it did that smh!!!
This got me thinking about the best demo disc/carts/cd-roms around. Many of the ones I cherished have been lost in the sands of time so I'm proud to have held onto this Sampler so long. I had a Dreamcast demo sampler that had a demo of DOA2 on it which I played constantly (it was green if memory serves me correct). Also there was a PC demo disc I had that came with both Tomb Raider and FFVII PC demo's which I played the heck out of too (wonder if i can find those again somewhere).
I know I can't be alone in this. Anyone else have favorite demo sampler's they cherish???

Want this again badly!
