I used to cover my ears as a little kid whenever the PS1 intro plays, scared the shit out of me

[@reaux1560]

I reccommend watching the movie called 'Cube'. The intro made me think back about the Playstation 1 startup noise.

[@thestickopia4619]

The ps2 start up “area” with the towers is ligit an area I want to explore. And I had that feeling since I was a wee las playing LEGO Star Wars in my basement. Also the towers growing with the memory card was something I never knew about till now

[@groovejester8325]

Ps2 start up feels like the universe has ended and you fell into a deep pit of nothingness

[@ramdor4]

Fun fact: the ps1 startup was made from the D-50 Synth keyboard by Roland and that specific patch (sound) is called "Spacious Sweep". I also know the man who created it. His name is Eric Persing. He worked for Roland Keyboards back in the 80s here in CA and engineered and programmed the D-50 (1987) Now he has his own best selling synth called Omnisphere. He's a friend of mine, I saw him recently at the Namm show. And yes, PS1 was the shit!

[@windmonkey95]

The PS2's startup always felt like I was sliding down a spiral staircase and then the little "wooh" at the end is like the door opening into fun heaven. If you forgot to put a disc in, though, then that staircase led directly to hell.

And when you put game on but still go to hell... painful

Don't forget the PS2 "menu" that was purgatory, confusing, and time consuming.

That moment when the white towers disappear and you don't know yet if the PS2 can read that slightly scratchy CD. Oh boy. It's a hellish few seconds but I think we all loved it when it succeeded.

Savage days, indeed.

[@flashmozzg]

Yeah, that anxiety with scratchy discs and PS1 loading theme was real.

[@ChriSaito]

Me and my friends would chant "Please work" over and over, praying to the video game gods to get certain disks to load. Specifically some demo disk I had with a fighting game we loved to play. It was so intense waiting to find out if the gods were smiling upon us that day or not.

[@BenjaminPeterParker]

It wasnt anxiety, it was hope for something better

The only thing scary about the ps2 startup sound was not hearing that short sharp sweet woomp sound with the beautiful logo stating blatantly that yes, after 15mins of rubbing the disc with your shirt and grabbing the ajax spray and wipe, you have finally proven yourself worthy of taking on Dr nefarious for the 16th time this week after explaining to your mum that the title of ratchet and clank 3 is not rude and isn't an actual representation of gameplay.

[@Dailyblazer19]

Ps2 is my all-time favorite boot up, those crystal symphonics, and the waves that crash in the background was and still is such an ethereal feeling; like a portal into another dimension that took you into the game. For those who don't know, the ps4 has a ps2 theme by Truant Pixel, it's really good.

[@bowcaster_657]

I always hated the PS2 startup hell screen. I dreaded having a scratched disk out of fear of seeing the displeasure to the senses that was the normal towers basically screaming in pain at what you put into the system.

[@newolku]

The PS2 startup sounds like you're awakening in a futuristic city, a burst of sound reaching your ears. But then you fade away from the commotion, and reach a sea shore bathed in moonlight, listening to the waves with a small breeze blowing through your hair. I remember just relaxing on the home screen before starting my games, listening to the lapping wave-like sounds.

Legend says that the Playstation start-up sound is the audio representation of the beginning of time itself, a toned down and poetic edit of the bang that started it all. Yes I did make this up but it's what I like to believe because it just sounds so... flawless and... awe-inspiring.

[@jrbviwiz]

I've heard so many people say that the PS2 startup sound was scary or something but I've never heard it that way. I also never had it go red because the disc was unreadable so that might be a part of it. For me it's nostalgic and comforting like the PS1, just not quite as good.

[@v.s7114]

Yeah, I had nightmares about it going red, as someone who ysed to play so many pirated copies, it was a legitimate nightmare.

[@ChrisPoindexter98]

OMG nooo it's not at all that way for me. The PS2 startup sound, blue fog, towers, the dots of light rotating through the transmorphing memory cards and discs in the white void browser, the purple nebula system settings with diamonds for the clock. The whole aesthetic feels so comfortable, entrancing, and mysterious yet peaceful, like coming "home" to our cosmic birthplace beyond this dimension and these mortal shackles. Basically the whole console including all its games is a hallucinogenic drug.

The PS2 startup sound was never scary for me, even as a kid. It always meant I was about to have fun, and enjoy myself. Whether it be by winning races and performing takedowns in Burnout 3, or making some sweet combos in Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX 2. To this day, it's still a warm and inviting sound. Brings back a lot of nostalgia. If I could, I would go back in time and punch my 10-year-old self in the face for trading in my PS2 at Gamestop for like $7 of in-store credit. But if you tried to start up the PS2 without a disk in, then yes, the red screen and ambiance were pretty scary

Waking up in a saturday morning, everyone else is asleep in the house, turning on the ps2, PRAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

[@senorlechuga8832]

My opinions on each one PS1: Mystical harmony PS2: Depths of gaming PS3: Lovely song PS4: It has a launch sound? ._. Edit: Literally he stopped talking about the PS4 and I already forgot the sound of the startup. I'm pretty sure it doesn't have a sound

[@Zayindjejfj]

It does. It's just not as nostalgic or memorable. Plus I think the sleep mode makes it to where you skip that part. I might be wrong.

[@artypyrec4186]

Haha im on my ps4, looking at it, Me: 'You have a load up sound?'

[@stuff5499]

what about PSP?

[@kablamo9409]

you can have the ps2 theme or the 20th anniversary theme with the ps1 startup on the ps4,i guess it kinda redeems it with customization

SO FREAKING TRUE I had this when I was 5 and I would get scared shitless if the screen went red

[@owenng2030]

Sherif Moussa I would close my eye with both of my hand when I saw a single bit of red, haha

[@e.j.3335]

The PlayStation 2 start up always reminded me of Castle in the Sky and the scene with the room of moving cubes. Also them ancient technology vibes

[@LiquidusSnakeX]

Seeing that ps2 failure to read disc screen at 3 AM put fear into your soul.

[@Exp.LJ1223]

I'm really passionate about the ps2 startup sound too, reminds me of silent Hill

[@weathermanonchannel3209]

Pocketninja G youre right now ill probably think about silent hill everytime i turn on my ps2

[@Atykifobia]

Me too, every time I hear the startup sound I get nervous af

[@amyhoard1222]

Reminds me of so many great games, that are lacking on the ps4. The games were finished, when they were released, thus no patches, no microtransactions, no bullshit.

[@ichbinein123]

It reminds me of the shadow realm in LoZ: Twilight Princess.

[@zeph94]

Anyone else ever do the PS2 Sprint? It's when your trying to sneak some midnight gaming, power that sucker up, and realize the TV volume was up.

[@dailydoseofgamingbuzzz]

Honestly.. It's very important to have these begginings. It prepares our mind to fully drop on that. Also this talking is amazing.. Thanks bro

[@chocloretin]

2:54 I absolutely love how the "Hey" syncs with the sound.

[@ohartradio]

As soon as 0:24 hit, my mind was flooded with wonderful thoughts of Crash Bandicoot, the Jampack Demo discs, Medievil, Spyro the Dragon, Tomba, Metal Gear Solid, Einhander, Ninja Shadow of Darkness, Tekken, Tomb Raider and a crapload of more good times. I miss the 90s.

[@ms-06fzakuii53]

Fuckin Jampack Demo discs!

[@GeddyRC]

We all do, my man.

[@darkknight_8891]

man do we all!!! the interactive cd also resident evil, tenchu,tekken 2,wwf warzone.... aggh just so much!!!

[@ilyabond2707]

Dude you just helped me to remeber that Tomba game that i was searching like since my childhood with only vague memories because i was like 5-6 yo. You are awesome. Also what others cool games do you have in mind?

[@AugustusBohn0]

there was a lady in my neighborhood who gave out ps2 demo discs on halloween one year. Supposedly she worked for sony, but it was only that one year so it's a mystery. I always kept up hope she would hand them out again until I stopped trick or treating lol

[@davosmando]

PS4: Pretty standard but enjoyable. PS3: Very original and interesting idea. PS2: Ominous and mysterious, but intriguing still. PS1: Perfect in every way.

[@miigs9499]

David Medina PS1: Scares the shit out of me.

[@sleepdeep305]

David Medina The PS3's startup is original? Fucking please...

[@nateslept]

PSP: pretty dang sweet

[@thepunisherreviews8082]

David Medina ps4 has a cheery sound then the more it goes on it get more depressing

[@mainsmain]

PS3 intro is used in lots of movies cuz its from Beethoven

[@itsss_gage4306]

The ps2 intro reminds me of playing TMNT and conflict Vietnam but having to start over every time cause I didn’t have a memory drive to save my progress. I had some of my best gaming memories with the ps2 and it’ll always be my favorite

[@ZetaMAGES]

Thanks youtube for this 2 year anniversary, your startups will not be forgotten this year

[@chronobound6617]

DS and DS Lite has an otherworldly startup sound. Underrated one.

[@ZorroCeleste1]

Maybe you'll love the Pictochat Remix from Super Smash Bros Brawl...

[@robby6382]

Tbh when I was booting up the PS2 at night alone I would get the chills

Lmao I like how they nabbed you with the Harold Budd/Brian Eno copyright with you using it so subtly. Love u jakey

I thought I was the only one. Need a new one now that online play is really a thing.

[@Hummabubba]

God damn Jakey, I'm a big Brian Eno fan and I could not be happier with the inclusion of First Light as background music. Thank you very much.

I'll never forget the first time starting up the ps2 on Christmas. I didn't think it could ever get anymore futuristic.

[@KidsStoleMyName]

The sounds of other consoles sound like only a game, PS1 sounded like some high quality, kinda movie stuff, best sound ever.

[@beholdandfearme]

I've been binge watching your videos and I have a foreboding sense of sadness knowing that before long I will have watched them all and will have to wait for new ones to come out. Just like I did with Exurb1a.
