PlayStation is 30 years old this week, if you can believe such a thing, and so celebrations are in order. The company's just released a 'Thank You' video through its official channels, taking fans on a breakneck tour of some beloved games.
Interestingly, most of the titles that show up in this montage are fairly new, but a handful of classics make the cut as well.
The footage is overlayed with some choice words, alluding to the scope of PlayStation as a platform. Everything from «love», «friendship», and «family», to «justice», «fear», and «infamy» is referenced here, with select games tied to each theme.
What do you make of this video? Are any of your favourite PlayStation games highlighted? Try not to get too soppy in the comments section below.
Robert (or Rob if you're lazy) is an assistant editor of Push Square, and has been a fan of PlayStation since the 90s, when Tekken 2 introduced him to the incredible world of video games. He still takes his fighting games seriously, but RPGs are his true passion. The Witcher, Persona, Dragon Quest, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, Trails, Tales — he's played 'em all. A little too much, some might say.
A thank you video, wow. How about a couple of extra games, or even some playstation store credit.
