  1. Not only does the PS5 logo look the exact same as the PS3 logo, the box art template has been basically the same since the PS2. I made a template that looks more like the Sega CD box art template back when the PS5 template was first announced.

  2. Heck yeah, the 2009 PS3 logo is bring as hell!

    The boxart took an ever worse turn as well. It added some bad black-to-gray gradient where the logo is, alongside a distracting red line separating it from the cover art.

    I actually print out my own custom boxarts of PS3 games I have using that Spider-Man cover.

  3. As a Clevelander, yeah I’m now realizing how garbage the Browns logo is
    The name kinda killed it, because what exactly is a brown? How do you draw a singular brown? This team was fucked from day one

  4. Can we talk real quick about the PS5 logo? Like, it is a normal ass, every day, no question about it logo… but the thing I love about it is that the console itself is so boring and Sony knew it, so the first thing they revealed for the console was the logo. And they made a huge deal about it, acting like every major news source was gonna talk about it. And obviously no one did because it is the exact same as the 3rd and 4th. Thankfully Sony gave us some actual straws to grasp at by revealing the controller ever a few MONTHS (YES, MONTHS) later. Then during the reveal of the console, they took 5 years to show it, and they had several hundred CGI renders of the PS symbols. They essentially cucked me, because all I wanted to see was that stupid console. Then when they finally showed it, I could not have been more underwhelmed. I think that might be stretching, I had spent an hour of my life and all I felt was just whelming. Not good. Not bad. Just meh. Which is something you never want your target audience to feel during a reveal.

  5. Glad to have you back! I have basically no artistic knowledge, but it's always fun to see someone talk about something they're passionate about, especially when they're so damn funny about it
