Sony plays the nostalgia violin for your #PlayStationMemories

  • Watching the original Ridge Racer on a Japanese import PSX
  • WipEout on PlayStation, and pretty blown away by it on PSP and Vita too!

  • Sadly moving my Dreamcast aside to make way for a silver PS2
  • Getting a PS3 just six months ago and having a truckload of free PS+ games to enjoy

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
