25 BEST PLAYSTATION GAMES EVER MADE
25 ASTRO’S PLAYROOM
For all the big-budget epics in the PS5’s burgeoning library, the best title for showcasing the console’s new tech is pre-loaded on the system. The game itself is a charming if fairly basic 3D platformer, but it fully utilises the DualSense pad’s nifty haptics and adaptive triggers, allowing you to feel everything the titular robot does in your hands. It’s also packed with creative tributes to PlayStation’s history.

24 JOURNEY
Plenty of the games on this list are big and action-packed, but Journey is very much the opposite – and all the better for it. It’s small and meditative, tasking you with guiding a hooded creature through the desert. Then you might find a companion – a real, online person – and while you’ll never know their name or communicate with real words, you’ll still work together to navigate this dazzling world on your joint pilgrimage.

23 SILENT HILL
may have been first, but to many, was the ultimate survival horror game. You found yourself lost in an eerie town as you searched for your daughter but instead discovered all manner of horrific… things. While wasn’t exactly a killathon, took the survival bit to another level: often you were reliant on just your legs and wits, plus a trusty iron bar. And if you did find a gun, you weren’t very good with it.
