What are you expecting for the 25th Anniversary of Playstation this December?

[Jawmuncher]

The original PS1 came out on Dec 3, 1994. For the 20th anniversary Sony announced this Limited Edition Console Bundle and Controller (That could be bought separately).



With that being how they celebrated the milestone (more or less).The obvious answer for the 25th Anniversary would be to release a new Limited Edition Console. However, I wonder if the earlier talk of PS5 being about "History" might lead us to something more interesting for the 25th Anniversary. Such as a Anniversary Sale similar to the Days of Play event earlier in the year (Where we can see a multitude of Classic Titles on Sale).

If the future of Playstation is about the history of the system, what better way to start than on the 25th anniversary. While an actual PS5 reveal might be too soon, A state of play focusing on classic titles (There are those rumors of a Demon's Souls Remake) would be interesting as well.

Typically Anniversaries aren't treated all that well if they don't fit within a FY plan, but I'd love to see the 25th celebrated with a bit more oomph. Even something like the PS Classic commercial that perhaps entails numerous fan favorites from all of their consoles would be quite the treat.

I expect nothing. PS5 reveal will come next year.

An article on Wired.

 

[kurahador]

PS4 Pro Slim.

Who I'm kidding. It's just going to be another new color PS4.

 

[ASilentProtagonist]

PS5 tease, PS5 event announcement (Feb, 2020 NYC) maybe?

 

[Hexer]

Give me a FF7R Demo! :D

 

[Deleted member 1003]

A kick-ass Holiday Theme!

 

[Okabe]

I'm expecting ..uh..*redacted* to be there

 

[NediarPT88]

December 3rd is a tuesday. That can only mean one thing...

A Wired article.

 

[Deleted member 721]

twitter message + ps4 theme

 

[Rosebud]

A tweet.

 

[Heri]

Alundra.

 

[Mathieran]

A video and some other social media stuff. Maybe some free avatars or a theme. I wouldn't really expect much more. Maybe a sale.

 

[MaverickHunterX]

To be honest...

They already did the 20th anniversary system and fucked up the PS Classic, so...

Though I'd love to finally get PS1 classics on PS4 for the occasion.

 

[KernelC]

a montage of their history so far teasing backwards compatibility and an announcement of the PS5 reveal event. Which will take place in early February.

A 25% coupon code for the PlayStation Store (excluding pre-orders).

 

[Imitation Of Life]

Not much.

 

[FreeangelGP05]

Probably nothing. Maybe a new PS4 theme?

 

[Mediking]

PS4 themes

PSN credit lol

 

[cdm00]

I wouldn't mind another holiday theme, last year's was awesome

 

[Modest_Modsoul]

I expect nothing.








And still disappointed.

 

[Ubik]

The should release an official Playstation 1 mini classic console. Whatever company released that shitty bootleg one last year really fucked up.

 

[Lant_War]

I'd love for them to release either a PS2 Mini or try another PS Classic (if it's based on the PSOne design, better)

 

[Josh5890]

A couple IGN features.

I know I might get heat for saying this, but I miss the old Colin Moriarety on IGN before he went off the deep end. He wrote some really good pieces the history of Playstation Studios

 

[salromano]

Well the PlayStation Awards are being held on December 3, which is the actual 25th anniversary date, and has 25th anniversary branding. It's also where they announced the 20th anniversary edition PS4 five years ago. I don't think we'll get another LE console, but I'm hoping for a PS5 reveal event date at the very least. I do think there will be at least one State of Play before that though.

 

[Cactuar]

Bloodborne 2.

This person gets it.

Personally I'm expecting an anniversary video/sale.

 

[Bowl0l]

I am hoping for a PS5 pre order date.

 

[djplaeskool]

Probably some swag/merchandise available.
Maybe a PS5 teaser, but nothing substantial on that front.

 

[Sid]

PSASBR 2

 

[IrishNinja]

Well Sony, you know what to do. I'll be checking my inbox on December 3, thank you.

 

[Diarrhea Day-Lewis]

Nothing but a tweet. Would be great if they released some Ps1 games on PS4, especially since PS5 will be BC and play them then. They clearly have an emulator on PS classic and other PS4 games have ps1 emulators so it can be done.

 

[Roshin]

A sale, a PS4 theme, some tweets, maybe a video. I don't expect anything major yet.

 

[SeanShards]

A very expensive PS4 model that will be impossible to get and mysteriously appear on BST six months later priced at the cost of half a year's mortgage.

 

[Vito]

I expect nothing.

 

[Magoo]

The thread on here about it to be nothing but the same handful of people that usually end up arguing doing it again by page 6.

 

[Necron]

PS One Classic.

 

[Deleted member 59126]

A new ps4 model and a PSN sale for their greatest hits.

 

[StallionDan]

I'm not expecting this but it would be amazing if there was an announcement saying PS5 will play not only PS4 titles but PS1, PS2 and PS3 as well.
