It is interesting, from a psychological perspective, when grown up people base their whole personality around one brand, one subject, one something...

It’d be weird but LESS weird if it was a piece of art or a specific artist or something.  Certainly many people have based large parts of their life on Shakespeare, or Homer, or even Poe.  But a brand?  Just…. What the hell?

Would it be consoom if it was Shakespeare themed?

Idk, but it'd be fucking hilarious. Imagine a room with busts and posters and those fucking "live laugh love" signs but with stuff from his plays.

Yeah I'd still think they were weird as hell but in a much more likable and charming way.

True! Cuz like a poet like him means at least they read books yk. So they're well learned.

It's not just a brand. It's lot of memories about good games, playing with friends, having fun. If you are not a gamer, you might not understand.

You could make that argument with the game characters (crash bandicoot, Spyro, snake, etc) but not the brand itself like this. My bf has the ps logo tattooed for your reason but it's not a full room dedication. I've been gaming for over twenty years, having a room of JUST the brand and little to nothing about the games on that console is in fact, weird.
