Critical Depth
PlayStation · 1997
About this game
A new spin on the whole vehicular combat genre- this one takes place underwater, and features freedom of movement throughout the ocean, instead of being land-bound like its brethren.
Portals have opened up all over the world's oceans- to open each portal, you have to collect 5 pods, while fending off the competition using whatever means necessary.

Once opened, each portal takes you to the next level... ...features mission-based levels, arena-battles, and a Vs. mode.
About PlayStation
The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.
Gamevaro tracks Critical Depth for PlayStation with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Critical Depth to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS1 release dates back to 1997.
