Thanks for the interest in our shared video gaming past. I had a lot of fun making that video. The PS1 was a fun machine as it was capable, complex enough that you felt it had secrets, but not so bizarre or byzantine that you felt learning them was a waste of time. And you were pretty much the only one in there as the libraries were just libraries, not really an OS. Still true of the PS2 although that was a complex beast, but by the PS3 there was more of a real OS presence. If you want some more, slightly different, slightly overlapping info on the PS1 or making Crash, I have a mess of articles on my blog on the topic: https://all-things-andy-gavin.com/video-games/making-crash/
