    Hey Guys,

    Been working a ton of overtime but I'm still getting in about 30 ~ 1 hour of gaming a day . . . maybe, but anyway, I'm been playing Policenauts with a Playstation Mouse that I got, and I have really enjoyed it.

    I know there are lists out there of games that supported the Playstation Mouse, however I want ya'lls feedback on which games are worth getting a playing?

    Thanks

    I had no idea Dune 2000 was ported to PSX. I'll have to keep an eye out for that one, I think I enjoyed it on PC.

    There are MANY, MANY more! This may be a complete list for all Western releases + Policenauts, but in Japan dozens of other games had mouse support. Tokimeki Memorial comes to my mind and it's quite enjoyable even with humble JPN skills. A great game that isn't featured on the list but does only require a very little amount of Japanese is Burger Burger (and sequel Burger Burger 2).
    A fast-food-chain manager that lets you create your own burgers. It features lovely graphics and a very entertaining gameplay. And fortunately all the menus are entirely in English! Only ingredients are listed in Kana, how stupid is that (considering everything else is in English)? -_-

    warhammer: dark omen isn't a terrible game. Once you get into it, it plays well enough to keep going and finish. I recall it wasn't much different from the PC version it was ported from.

    Yeah I don't own any PCs . . . all I have are Macs . . . so yeah. Plus I like playing games on my 32" TV better than my 13" monitors (I only have laptops . . )

    Thanks, I'll keep my eye out for them!

    I had found that same list online, but I wanted to know which ones were actually work getting and playing, a list like that just says which are available but not whats worth playing :thumbsup:

    See that is what I'm talking about, that sounds like alot of fun, and my wife would like that kind of game as well! Trying to get my wife into some classic PSX gaming!

    I have no clue about Japanese titles. Maybe you could compile a list for Japanese games?

    I've no idea how many there are with mouse support - probably lots and lots of adventure and FMV games.

    Neither did I. It is a good game.

    Red Alert Retaliation is one to check out, RA + the expansion packs and some exclusive FMVs.

    Hey Barc0de, I got mine off the bay for nothing, I think with shipping I paid like 8 bucks. I had to clean the ball wheels when I got it and then it worked fine.

    All those games work with a standard controller, but let me tell you, when you are playing a games that is designed for a mouse, and then you have to use a standard controller, it makes a massive difference in gameplay!

    games should be playable not just work though. It's a tedious way to play considering the detailed looking you need to do. It's like scanning a tube with a canon if you want to go through each and every object if you want to go at it with a controller.

    regarding the eBay note.. I m sure they are cheap but I m still waiting for that karma to catch up. Sooner or later I ll be stumbling upon one for free hopefully.

    I played C&C and C&C Red Alert with a joypad, so I understand what you're saying. It's not 'that' bad though ;-)

    I'm sure C&C play fine with a joypad, however if you played with a joypad and then a mouse, I doubt you would want to play with joypad again . . . I guess that is what I meant.

    Hey thanks for going back and updating the list to show which ones are worth playing, I totally missed that before.

    I was actually going to ask if the Clock Tower was worth playing!!! Thanks again for this wonderful list!
