The original PlayStation (PS1) was a groundbreaking console that brought 3D gaming to the masses. One of the key factors that contributed to its success was the use of CD-ROM technology, which allowed for larger and more immersive games. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, a sub-format emerged: PS1 VCD games. These games were distributed on Video CD (VCD) format, which was a popular medium for music and video content at the time.
