All PlayStation Startups PS1, PS2, PSP, PS3, PS Vita, PS4 

My anxiety issues began to rise when the ps2 startup started taking longer time than it used to.

When the ps2 start up took so long and u became nervous if the game was gonna work or not...

When your PS2 startup takes longer than it usually does: **Intense praying**

you know when you getting old when the PS3 intro becomes nostalgic

PS1 and PS2 startups are both legendary and memorable.

Never turned on my PS2 at night Wasn’t safe in these streets

That PS1 sound makes me wanna cry with nostalgia. Had one when I was 14. My parents couldn't afford to buy us video games so in the later years, my big bro saved up money and bought one for me. It almost made me cry, was so emotional.

Rest in peace, Tohru Okada, the PS1 start-up sound was my favourite sound growing up.

I now understand why the PS2 startup used to creep me out as a kid. Sitting in a dark room, it suddenly becomes really loud and then really eerily quiet which definitely sets those undertones.

Not all people understand the joy that comes after seeing the PS2 logo after inserting the disc...

PS1 startup with a game always sent shivers down my spine. The deep base with the crisp sounding tone was like Sony was showing how powerful and superior they felt like their console was.

The PS1 intro is still epic and has aged very well.

You're a OG if you remember waiting in suspense to see if your scratched PS2 disc would play

Two things scared you with the PS2: It either loaded too quickly Or It loaded too slowly

Being a 90's kid, PS1 is easily the best, most nostalgic startup sound. Gives me chills hearing it to this day and I'm 34 now. I remember waking the whole house up playing at night through my dads stereo. Metal Gear Solid, Gran Turismo, Spyro, etc. God, those were good times and the PS2 was such a leap in graphics. I remember getting one when they were still difficult to find and booting up Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec. The graphics blew my f-ing mind. PS gamer for life!

I’m surprised everyone is talking about the PS1 and PS2. The PS3 was the one that made me shed a tear.

PS4: "Hey welcome home, pull up a seat, relax. What do you feel like playing today?" PS1: P R E P A R E F O R V I D E O G A M E

Let everyone confess; The ps1 song was the most mystic... (We were feeling like going into another planet..yea)

Playing a Ps1 game in Ps2 and hearing both sounds just unlocked my childhood again. You never realize how valuable a moment is until it’s many years gone.

How to play a PlayStation 1&2 game that you bought from a street vendor: 1. Insert disc 2. Press play 3. Run

1:10 "cmon, please please just work...YES!"

Pure nostalgia, this is man. No one can ever compare the feelings you get from hearing that PS1 Intro, and rememebring your childhood, and the goodtimes. Still glad I still have and play on my PS1, and PS2 till this day. Nothing will ever be like this.

Fun fact: The "towers" on the PS2 startup screen represent the number of used blocks on your memory card.

Its amazing how just little and shorts sounds brings your feelings back in time.

the sound of PS2 makes wanna cry and go back in time, childhood memories :((

Everyone gangsta till PS2 errors start playing

If felt like someone was watching me when the PS2 starts up.

Ps1 sound is amazing! Captures that retro vibe so well! Didn’t play much Ps1 but I still loved it. Ps2 used to scare the crap out of me as a child, I used to cover my eyes when I was 5 years old, also playing in a pitch black basement didn’t help either. Brings me great memories to just sit here and listen to the magic that was created.

I had a PS2 when I was a kid, the startup sound is so nostalgic and relaxing to me. Memories man, memories.

the ps2 sound is so specific in my memory

I remember as a kid, staying up late after my parents went to bed and trying to sneakily play some PS1 and not knowing how loud the TV was then waking up the entire neighborhood with that sound.

RIP Tohru Okada! Your Music will forever stay in our mind!

Such good times. Glad that I still got my PS1 and PS2, and that I still play it to this day. Two of the best consoles of all time and the only two consoles that I own other than the GameCube that I also have. Pure nostalgia right here and straight up my childhood right here. Such good times.

“PlayStation 2 With no disc” Uh oh..

*PS2 sound with no disc* Me: Terrible childhood flashback

PS1 will forever be my favorite startup due to the Nostalgia and memories I've had on that console, plus it just sounds awesome like the (THX) sound, I also always liked how the PS logo chime sound continues over the Sony entertainment sound, you always knew your disk was working.

The most nostalgic sounds from me are the openings for the PS1 and the PS2 That being said I grew up with all of these systems and it brings a tear to my eye because it's like reliving my past memories as a child remembering all the good moments I had with my family with these systems, mind you I was very young back then and I'm going to be 25 this year so that kind of puts in to context on how good my memory is of these systems

Today is PS2's birthday, happy birthday PS2

Huh, didn't think people were scared of the ps2 intro. I just found it nostalgic.

The sound of play1 gave me a nostalgia now, I even felt a tightness in my heart, I remembered my childhood.

The startups of the PS1 and the PS2 will always radiate within my soul. 🎮⭐️

PS1 startup sound like something EPIC is going to be happened

PS1 startup, you really could feel the beginning of something great

Rest in peace okada. Thank you for the ps start-ups.

This entire video is my childhood...

I remember getting hella scared when the PS2's intro took a little longer to go thinking the disk got messed up.

Y’all forgot the red screen of hell when you put a scratched disc in the PS2

Every time new PS was out, during first few startups me and my cousin would come with a theory how much more technologically advanced the new PS is compared to the previous version and how we’re actually being taken into another dimension. The initial graphics of PS2 was like travelling through different dimensions. Great times hahaha

wow my first console was the PSP. I spent so many hours on it, and truly enjoyed it. the startup thing really brought so many flashbacks

Today is PS2's birthday, happy birthday PS2, it turns 20

The anxiety the disc wouldn’t read when the ps2 logo wouldn’t appear

god the ps2 startup sound gives me such nostalgia, im in love

Grew up with PS1 but i really started to get into gaming with the PSP, the startup almost made me cry with nostalgia

Playstation 1 remains unbeatable and gives me the chills. Nostalgia hits hard! Fun fact: the bars on the PS2 intro represent the save files on the memory card and their height represents game completion % 😃

PS2: *starts up* Me as a kid: *runs and hides* Me now: *runs and hides*

The PlayStation 2 will always be a legendary console to me. The startup sound will never leave me, and it’s so cool seeing all of those blocks of data grow with every play session of my games! When there isn’t a disc inserted, you are pleasantly greeted with the blissful sounds of waves crashing into each other, as you see the floating blue orbs just dancing around in space. It’s also really nice to see different icons for games that can be really unique and have some love put into them! My favourites of these icons have to be for both Half-Life and Godzilla Save the Earth. People tend to find the “red screen of death” scary (super dramatic name I know), however I tend to see it as really annoying/irritating to see that my game hasn’t worked >:( I still play the PlayStation 2 often and enjoy playing games such as: Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus, Sly 2 Band of Thieves, Sly 3 Honor Among Thieves, Godzilla Save the Earth, Half-Life, Grand Theft Auto 3, Vice City and San Andreas, etc.

That PS2 start up really made you feel like you were in for an experience. God I love it.

I feel like the intros only got quieter with each generation

PS4: Relaxing music PS3: Relaxing music PS2: Relaxing music PS1: HHHHHHHYYAAOOOUUUUUUUU

PS1 startup sound. Tomb Raider immediately comes to mind. Nostalgic. Thank-you.

The nostalgia kicked so hard ..I'm back in 2002 when i was 7 and playing Spyro on PS1 after school ..man that was a great time ..legendary

Ps2 noise brings back the most nostalgic memories. It's incredible what video games can do, and how they can be a positive impact on our lives.

Am I the only one who doesn’t find the PS2 sound not creepy at all?? I find it really soothing and cool lol

*Uncontrollable Nostalgia*

I legit cried when the PS2 part came on.

Would be cool if the PS5 randomly selected from these when turned on.

the ps2 startup is the most nostalgic thing in history

The PS1 and PS2 tunes felt like you really entered another dimension..

The ps3 intro made me tear up a little and idk why. I really miss booting it up on a weekend and playing little big planet 2 all day. Coronavirus has warped my sense of time, but that was quite a while ago now.

The PS2 startup the "towers" you see are actually your save files the less games you have saved on your memory card less "towers" you will see, the more save files you have more "towers" you will see.

Where are my PS2 bros at?

When it comes to epic PlayStation intros, nothing will ever come close to the first one. When you heard that opening theme, you knew straight away, you were in for something really special. 26 years later, I still get chills everytime I see the white screen and the orange Sony logo appear followed by the PS1 symbol. Great memories

PS2 and PS3 for me are the most iconic ones for playstation series and good God the PS2 sound is so chill.. it takes me back in time

1:04 scariest moment of all of our childhoods

Ps1 best intro ever. I remember right after that intro sound, the Crash bandicoot song started rolling, filling all my room with that beautiful noises. My childhood.

The PS2 and the PS3 (Newer startup) give me such nostalgia. I sold my PS2, but I still have my PS3 and every now and then I start it up and always get nostalgic feels!!!

The ps3 startup music brings back so many memories,i remember when i got my ps3 for Christmas when i was about 5 and i played it the first time with my dad,i wish i could bring back those times.

0:40 please work work work work 0:52 yeah :v

The ps1 sound is just pure and sweet nostalgia

That ps1 start up is so loud and so in your face and its so amazing

That PlayStation 1 boot up really brings me back man I hate getting old

Happy 20 Years To the PS2

I'm crying... SO MUCH NOSTALGIA MAN IT'S REAL

Thanks for taking me back to my childhood :)

Everyone is talking about PS1 and PS2 startups, but no one is talking about how chill and relaxing the PS4 one is.

Had all of em, and PS1 still blows the rest away. Listen to that PS1 intro, on full volume surround sound. Time-space just ripped, & you're about to travel to the future, yesterday!

The PS2 was truly, the best thing ever made.

The PS1 intro is the most iconic in the history of gaming.

Ahhhhhh the ps1&2 ones, the nostalgia bruh, got shivers and tingles when I heard them! Haha

PS4 Seriously went like “Do I really need to introduce myself?”

1:19 i call this "PS21"

Tears of joy, listening to legendary start ups!

I come back to this video every now and then when I can’t sleep. When I was a kid and I couldn’t sleep my brother would get up and play a game for 30 minutes until I fell asleep. OR in the morning it would be the first thing I hear Hearing the startup of 1 and 2 is insane. 3 and 4 was when he moved out and I was playing games by myself. oh, also the sweet smell of a PSP, Idky but I always put my nose to the back where you put the UMD and took a big wiff.

The start up sound to the first Playstation is one of the most nostalgic noises I will ever hear. It makes me dizzy with memories from a long time ago.

The ps2 ones so loud when ur trying not to wake up the family 😁😁

I've always adored the ps3 start up sound because it makes me feel like I'm in the audience at the theatre listening to the orchestra tuning their instruments 😏 I work in community theatre backstage, yes I'm a theatre geek

I’ve had an x box since 2008 but my god listening to this sound brings back every memory. Might need to make a change
