Different Ps2 StartUp Screens

There Is Just Something Very Mysterious About The PS2

Creeps me out so much as a kid also now.

The Sounds and the Towers

[@rojosh4520]

The Towers

[@pedrodorantes3527]

Supslowrobot Productions Yeah... They don't build them like that anymore.

[@justadachitrash9588]

Supslowrobot Productions what is it?

[@nukebr4n555]

I remember playing sponge bob: battle for bikini bottom on the ps2 when I was little. Those days were fucking awesome

[@aquaphoenyx7323]

Holy shit I played that game too. I always had trouble on that level where in the end you had to kill all those crabs, and that last level

[@aquaphoenyx7323]

BranflakesGMR Nevermind I didn't play that game. I was thinking of battle for volcano island

[@kara3095]

I played it on PS2. Couldn't beat Robot Sandy for like a week xd

[@JetSetKev]

[@gongagunka3018]

The Towers and the Heights aren't always random. The limit of the towers increase when you play more games. And their heights depends on the time you've spent playing them.

[@LyokoUnite]

The towers represent the number of gigs on Memory Card and if save a lot of slots or fill in empty saves then the tower increase even with ps1 games and tomb raider was one of them.

[@SoheiJayce]

Sometimes it indicates if there's a memory card inside or not

[@TREVORVADER]

gongagunka wait really?

[@whoeusbsknsi]

@@TREVORVADER watch a ps2 secrets video and they all mention it, the towers are the amount of games you've played and their height represents time spent playing the game

[@Nightwolf2595]

The tower are the games, the height of them is the playtime, hence why there's no towers on first startup.

[@jesusamezquita8]

when I was little I use to say the colorful orbs flying around in the startup were the Powerpuff girls lol

[@picklelord2048]

jesusamezquita8 lol

[@garrettbrando9841]

jesusamezquita8 lol

[@knox6371]

jesusamezquita8 Actually,if you look closely,they're stars of different colors,which create an unique colour by colliding togheter.

[@R00t_Jail]

Knox 63 what colour will it make?

[@knox6371]

SamFoxter The Foxter The classic blue color that we see in the PS2's BIOS. If you look closely when we open the bios,that isn't the stars original colour. Infact,they all have their own colour,which will perform the blue one by colliding togheter. I honestly think that the blue color is,in some way,connected to Hertzsprung-Russel's diagram,where it's said that the blue stars are the hottest,while the red stars are the coldest. Not to mention,the stars sound in the startup is way deeper than the stars sound in the BIOS. In my opinion,this means that the stars in the startup have a way bigger magnitude/mass,compared to the stars in the BIOS.

[@moonxeclipse9999]

I Had One During My Childhood

[@howze48]

***** You have no towers because you have no memory card inserted, once you have one, and you play a game a moving block will appear in the startup, each time you play that game the block will fade away a little, the will grow into a tower the more you play, then when that tower is complete, you'll be able to see another one growing somewhere next to it, same rules apply for a diffent game.

[@themakerofworlds]

I grew up on the ps2. my childhood

[@megahello9029]

The towers are save files. The larger the save file. The higher the tower.

[@howze48]

Well its not the save files, its basically game history you can delete the game save file, the block/tower will still be there, the blocks/towers are your system configuration

[@howze48]

If you have some type of file browser for your ps2 and go into your sys config folder for your ps2, you'll see something there that says history, when I deleted that, the block/tower disappeared, a more detailed explanantion but yea

[@hatersbby]

+Michael Howze I don't know your PS2's version but in my 2008 Slim PS2 i haven't seen any of the cubes even there were no save files or fully loaded memory card i think this is because the version of PS2

[@Beos_Valrah]

These sound effects are magical, I love them! Imo they are better than many sound effects today. Somehow this has more charm, is warmer, more relaxing and space-like. Also that ominous undertone which I really like.

[@jadenbogart]

I agree with you, Beos_Valrah

[@andrewh2947]

I hated this sound when I was little because I found it creepy. But now I really like it. It reminds me of being cooped up inside at night in your room while it's snowing outside...

[@noaharkadedelgado2318]

Me too

[@MUHREECE]

So much nostalgia. I remember when I got my PS2 for Christmas. I woke up at 4AM and ran to wake up my parents. They were extremely mad but loved my reaction when I opened it. My favorite PS2 game was pretty unknown. It was Monster Rancher 3. It is still my favorite game.

[@MUHREECE]

I had like 40 towers. I played the PS2 all day, everyday.

[@badaccount4957]

Same with the GameCube.

[@Schimnesthai]

I came here because i was searching for a PS2 startup with all the towers at maximum height, i still can't find one.

[@howze48]

there was one before

[@howze48]

the only way to get that is for your sys config to corrupt and by that, it will give you random grown towers, and sometimes a full screen full of them, I've known this from experience, but yea that's probably the only way

[@Schimnesthai]

[@snoleopard]

the ps2 doesn't really fit into standard y2k/2000s or 90s aesthetics so it probably has it's own lol god sony used to innovate so much, now everything is just white plastic=cool again we really did go full circle

[@reedbriggs5842]

ahhh that sweet old nostalgic sound.

[@cjfrench5401]

I got my PS2 in 2003 when I was 5 and it for real feels like it was just yesterday. Whenever I hear this start up it gives me such a weird, nostalgic feeling that's hard to describe. It's like whenever I hear it it takes me right back to the early 2000's playing Crash Bandicoot with my brother and neice.

[@kigta]

You can feel it but you can't explain it, its looks like you are trying to break the logic of your life.

Fucking loved the days of playing the Champion of Norrath games on the Ps2. Mx vs ATV, God of War 1 and 2, Star Wars Battlefront 2, Splinter Cell, Gta San Andreas. Mind you I was too young at the time to have my own console back in the day so I played those games with my uncle on his. Those were the days. Didn't have to worry about shit.

Ah, the warm, ambient, encompassing startup of the PS2. You're greeted to the inside of your memory card, and you're ready to play. Then you remember... My disk is scratched. *_OOOOOH BOY!_*

[@enzmondo]

I remember when the console will just fail me and get stuck in that initial sequence with the "memory boxes" (the amount of memory you have used up in your memory card is directly proportional to the amount of boxes are shown in the startup) and stay there for hours on end.

[@thenotoriousspqr4239]

Seeing the end of the first intro was soo fukin satisfying after u tried cleaning the disc or tried whatever last resort remedy u could think of

[@JobiMorkos]

Childhood Memories my brother was good at this

[@MinimiB2000]

I remember the sayings... "When the green light goes to the right, the disc loaded"

[@DarkSideBeats]

The blocks on the loading screen represent the amount of games you have played. The progress of your save files on your memory card determines how tall they were. Every new game causes another block to appear. If you loaded your ps2 without a memory card attached or it bugged & didn't read it then it would revert to zero blocks. That's why everyone has a different memory of the loading screens.

Who wouldnt be scared of this intro?
