I believe it featured on the Official Playstation Magazine disc at some point.
Oh god Demo discs, I threw so many of these away, never thought I'd miss them.

Wonder what the going price is on the original PS1 demo disc. Remember the one with the T-rex 3D model.

YES. the T. rex! Also using the ps1 to play CDs with its colourful wave like paturns. I think I had every demo disk up yo 63, god I wish I had them still will all the Magazines.

The TOCA / BTCC series of games were a laugh.

TOCA 1 had amazing cheats...jelly cars, super fast cars, tanks that could shoot other cars off the track and the volcano bonus track.

I liked TOCA 2 for having more complex car set up functions so you could do things like put slicks on and set weather to rain. I also loved that it had all of the support race series to so you could drive Fiestas and Formula Fords. I think you could drive other random stuff like Grinnall Scorpion?!

I miss the cheats that PS1 games had or the amusing glitches that let you get behind / in / under / on top of things.

I also remember playing the Medal of Honour series over and over, especially the first one.

I miss how the instruction manual would have a guide to all the guns/car in it.

Little big Adventure without a doubt!
This!

Absolutely loved LBA and LBA 2! I was always felt as though the game was years ahead of its time both graphically and the open world landscape (albeit it very limited by today's standards).

If they released the 3rd in the series then I'd definitely buy it.

Ahhh the smell of a new untarnished manual, that would always be read by the time you got home.

And the handy notes section to write down the cheats or level passwords.

These days a lot of games don't even have a manual at all frown

I loved the music on the T-Rex demo. I sometimes watch it on YouTube just for the song.
