What should we expect? Each generation of PlayStation always has a radical change in design and it’s hard to predict what Sony will do.

I’ve always thought Sony should get some inspiration from the PS2 and incorporate some design cues from that console and modernize it for 2020. The PS2 has such an iconic design that it would be cool to see it modernized.

 

[EverydayBeast]

At this stage SONY has to do something historical. Thread done.

 

[HORRORSHØW]

Parallelogram 5

 

[Slings and Arrows]

Some kind of black box.

 

[Manus]

Hopefully one that doesn't sound like a vacuum cleaner.

 

[Celcius]

I'm hoping they don't try to reference PS2 but rather go more towards the style of the original Playstation. I want a lid on the top that flips up. I want it to have round buttons. I want it to look like a video game console, not another slick media box.

 

[TLZ]

 

[DanielsM]

 

[zeroFiveNine]

I hope whatever they do the top and bottom are flat.

No "inhale" bollocks or feet that are not stable.

 

[ethomaz]

Sexy machine like PS4.

 

[Valonquar]

I'm expecting a CPU fan that creates small vortexes of shrill noise in my den.

 

[bitbydeath]

Callback to the PS1. (25 years)
Raise the lid higher where you usually place the disc. Turn it into a slot instead of an open/closer cover. (As it’s now raised there is room)
Keep the rest the same with additional inputs added in place of the controller slots.

I’d edit the image to show what I mean but I’m at work so hopefully it makes sense.

 

[MayauMiao]

I don't care how the PS5 designed. What matter is the design will make sure the unit will get enough airflow cooling so it doesn't sound like a jet engine.

The Xbox One s and x kind of remind me of the PS2 design. Especially when using their stands. Would be cool if Sony did something to borrow from the PS2 design.

PlayStable 5

 

[Pagusas]

Something with good airflow. Preferably black or white. Preferably something that looks nice in an equipment closet.

But they are designing this for gamers, who have shown time an again to have the worst taste know to man. So it will likely be ugly, gaudy and feel like a kids toy.

At least that's how I would design it

I'd buy that.

 

[Shifty]

Make it look like a Dreamcast.

That looks like one of those fancy automatic air fresheners

It’s actually a sex toy.

 

[Boaty McBoatface]

Make it fucking quiet please so I don't have to re apply the thermal paste myself.

 

[Shifty]

It’s actually a sex toy.

That's not what I expected at all.

Now to spend an hour or so pondering what it actually does (aside from playing PS5 games)

[ZywyPL]

Just keep it simple, something like this:

Add a blue LED bar across bottom the front, extra vents on top, and there you go.

My... umm... friend, asks where is this gif from?

 

[sadaiyappan]

Would look cool if it is too small, like slim gaming laptops now.

 

[AeonGaidenRaiden]

I wish a White version is their main. I always loved the look of white consoles but could never wait a year to get that version. Look at this sex!

They will never do a flip up lid because it's not practical for storage purposes, majority of people have their console sitting in some sort of TV unit and there is not enough room on top. The shape has to also be practical, it will be some sort of box.

I'm glad some of you aren't in charge of designing this, It would be like that Simpson's episode where Herb leaves Homer in charge of designing a new car!

Can I get that in male version, extra hairy?
Also, I see the disc slot, but no Power or Eject button.

Arguably it has been modernised... see Xbox One S/X design .

 

[Texas Pride]

 

[Breakage]

Why are fan-made console concepts often so bad?
I think it will be hard for Sony to top the design of the original PS4.

 

[Snake29]

Hope they go back to this design, but smaller and with some changes.

 

[MiyazakiHatesKojima]

 

[CyberPanda]

Oh come on. That looks horrendous.

 

[Imtjnotu]

Hope they go back to this design, but smaller and with some changes.

God I miss the look of this ps2

 

[SlashBringingHasher]

Literally as am scrolling there's an ad of a girl in a latex dress ass and she's grabbing her own ass and making it bounce

 

[Texas Pride]

The one thing holding VR back is the lack of sex games on console. Have move controllers double as vibrators and interactive sex toys and watch that shit take off.

 

[bhunachicken]

Yeah, you all knew I was going to post this.

(Honestly, though, I'd stay the f ck away from anything like that, attached to JJL or not!)

 

[Codes 208]

I honestly want it to continue the diagonal look of the ps4 family. Or cross the best aspects of the ps4, ps3 slim and Xbox one s.

Just keep it simple, something like this:

Add a blue LED bar across bottom the front, extra vents on top, and there you go.

Lol no. the OG Xbox one model got enough shit for looking like a vcr, one gen later looking like a DVD/Blu-ray player isn’t an improvement.

Obligatory quote.

 

[Harlock]

I just hope that real buttons in the console are an next-gen feature.

 

[klosos]

Just make it simple box with a MATT black finish , thats it. No black gloss dust collecting ,finger print keeping monstrosity please

 

[CJY]

I don't care how the PS5 designed. What matter is the design will make sure the unit will get enough airflow cooling so it doesn't sound like a jet engine.

Yeah, I care a lot more about the design choices made on the inside than the outside.

More specifically, as you say, the design of the cooling system.

I’m confident I’ll be happy with most anything when it comes to the aesthetics of the exterior.

 

[FranXico]

Keep It Simple, Sony.

 

[FranXico]

Dude, my eyes hurt! So much pain!

Inspired by ps4pro fan noise.
Comes bundled with noise cancelling earmuffs.
