Developers play games too. They also have their likes and dislikes. 107 Japanese devs were asked what their most memorable game was out of two decadesâ worth of the PlayStation library. Hereâs the top 6.
Japanese gaming mag Dengeki Playstation, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the PlayStation platform, sent out the questionnaires to 107 Japanese game developers. The top 6 games boiled down to the following.
[UPDATE] It has been pointed out that there are 8 titles when the list is indicated as the âtop 6.â This is due to titles #6 to #8 all getting the same number of votes and thus all tying for the #6 spot.
Once again, people loveFinal Fantasy VII. Small wonder, considering the influence the game has had. Perhaps more interesting, on the other hand, is that games like Ridge Racer and Parappa the Rapper remain so deeply embedded in developersâ minds as to be their most memorable PlayStation game after 20 years.

Itâll be interesting to see what the next generation of developers answer in another 20 years.
