Just wait everyone Microsoft is gonna see this and then BAM! Feb. 19 they announce the Xbox 720 just to screw with Sony.

So they mention Parappa the Rapper but not Final Fantasy VII. I realize that Parappa is a first party game and FFVII isn't but if they're gonna show one of the greatest games of all time in the video, why not mention it as well?

I don't think Pa Rappa the Rapper was a system mover. I think it was games like Final Fantasy VII, Crash Bandicoot, Ace Combat, Spyro, and the like. I do recognize that most of these are not Sony exclusive properties anymore, which is why only the lame are left. No offense Crash, but you feel like a Dinosaur compared to games like Megaman Legends.

That was it? Where is the rest of the history?

I am with out a doubt, that on the day of the 20th, SONY will reveal there next iteration of the PlayStation console, PS4. I'll watch the event to see what SONY has planned. I really do wonder if Microsoft will reveal the next Xbox, I've always been an Xbox guy and can't wait to see what they have planned.....if any at all. Besides all else, this years press conferences and E3 will probably be fantastic,a nd I can't wait to see what everyone has under their sleeve.

So this video is only Talking about how they entered the video game industry, and don't even mention the PS2 era with the PS3 era. Wow, I can't beileive you're this ignorant Sony.

I play xbox, but this is getting me excited

Feb 20th can't come fast enough.

I will be looking online and watching.

Ahhh, the memories. Good times, good times.
by Companion Cube Friday, February 15, 2013 at 08:18 PM

Ah, the PSOne. That little machine is my favorite console, and about sums up my childhood. There are three Crash Bandicoot games in my top 10 (CTR at 2. Crash 1 at 5, Crash 3 at 9), and as a kid, I would just play CTR, Crash 1-3, Spyro, and Lego Island 2 all day. Long live the PSOne, and, needless to say, I'm very excited for Wednesday.

by Tim Gruver Friday, February 15, 2013 at 08:32 PM

Well, we'll see how Sony manages next week. . .
by WUMBOL0GY Friday, February 15, 2013 at 08:39 PM

There is a lot less freaking out about a new console in the comments than I was expecting. WHY IS NO ONE ELSE FREAKING OUT! *hyperventilates violently*

They forgot to mention in their Video that they were in an a joint adventure with Nintendo with the Playstation 1 and Nintendo did most of the work and Nintendo wasn't happy with the final product and sold all it's rights to Sony. Luckily for Sony it was a sucsess......
