Not PS1 but...

Duke Nukem: the Manhattan Project.

It's a Contra-esque sidescroller but fully 3d rendered.

It originally came out during the PS1/PS2 era.
spac316:
Spyro trilogy was good as was Crash Bandicoot. I also liked Tomb Raider, the first couple of games. Croc was ok.

Almost forgot...Ape Escape! Awesome game!
argyle:
Spyro trilogy was amazing, I felt it was far better than any other 3D platformers out at the time.  Medieval was also good, but tough.  I also highly recommend Ape Escape. 

Not PS1, but PS2 - the Maximo games are excellent. 
theflea:
Of course I'm going to say Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Medieval, Ape Escape & Tomb Raiders but i'll also add...

Blasto
Skullmonkeys
Tomba! 1 & 2
Donald Duck in Goin' Quackers
Klonoa
Gex series
Jersey Devil
Pandemonium! 1 & 2
Punky Skunk
Rayman 1 & 2

argyle:
Yes, if you're going to include 2.5D platformers then you have to mention Klonoa & the Tomba games.  Some of my favorite games on the platform.
