Welcome To The Museum Of PlayStation

m96.jpg A webpage we've been keeping an eye on for a while now is the PlayStationMuseum.com site, listed as "the culmination of years of research and dedication to the Sony PlayStation", and so we figured it was time to introduce it to you, dear GSW readers.

Definitely the work of an extreme fan, the site is really trying to be DreamcastHistory.com for the PS1 set, and already has shots and info on some pretty neat obscurities, including a Men In Black-themed all-black PS1, information on the cancelled PlayStation version of Baldur's Gate, and even pics and info on the famously canned Madden '96.

Elsewhere on the site, there's an in-depth look at PS1 dev hardware, including a crazily large amount of accumulated silicon, with the PlayStation JAMMA board dev kit the one thing that the site's owner is particularly looking for - certified obscurities abound!

Great post, and amazingly interesting sites... Let me humbly propose the Lucasarts Museum (google it...). Totally unrelated, but fun nonetheless... Cheers

Thank you for this nice post. With all this interest, I'll find time to post some in-game screenshots of Spirit Master and perhaps more screens of Baldur's Gate.
