Bushido7745785 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Hey folks! @ChernobylNinja and I run a podcast titled, "Plat Cast", where talk trophy hunting shop and often ask you all questions to read your answers on air! This week we thought we would ask: "Who is your favorite PlayStation mascot/character? Which character or property represents Sony and PlayStation to you and why?" Thanks gang! Looking forward to your answers on this one! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasper2005M Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Nathan Drake from uncharted, i loved those games and seeing Drakes new adventures, Crash Bandicoot is also my favorite because it's my favorite remaster for ps4 ?? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraven_15 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 While there's quite a few, I'd say Nathan Drake from the Uncharted series. I joined the Sony console mob late in the piece and I'm glad I did simply for this series. It has become my co-favourite series of all time (along with Metroid). The story telling, the gameplay, the music, the entire cast of characters are nothing short of amazing. The character relationships are at a level where I feel like they're actual people with actual lives that I actually care about. Uncharted does that in a way that I've never quite experienced before and so Drake gets my PS rep award. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconkicks Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I guess I'd say the hunter from Bloodborne. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iGGTheEnd Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 16 minutes ago, falconkicks said: I guess I'd say the hunter from Bloodborne. Id go Bloodborne doll but for some reason Bloodborne doesn't feel mascot. I used to think Spyro and Crash but now they are cross console so I guess I would go with Nathan drake. Sony's characters seem so weird when calling them mascots compared to Nintendo with Mario and Xbox with Master Chief. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gisquared09 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Obviously Nathan Drake for me, I have some great memories playing the original trilogy and he represents what I find so great about PlayStation. The series allowed me to live out my childhood fantasies of being an action hero and they pulled it off so damn well. Kudos to Naughty-Dog.

Beyondthegrave07 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I'd say either Ratchet and Clank, Daxter, or Sly Cooper would be the ideal choice. They all have the same witty or funny attitude and have the asthetics. It's also hard to imagine Nathan Drake, Kratos, or Ellie because they look too realistic and are really violent characters IMO. Not exactly what I imagine being a mascot for a younger audience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grample_Gust Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Sly Cooper is the only correct answer. He's even wearing the same color as the playstation logo! He's also a sneaky boy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 (edited) This absolute unit. But seriously, Nathan Drake is the best. How can you not love him? P.S. isn't it pretty neat how Spider-Man is technically a PS mascot now? P.P.S We NEED a new PlayStation Character commercial like this one with this new wave of mascots.

Feral Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Nathan Drake because he's an awesome character and Uncharted is one of my favourite series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSoleride Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Defiantly Nathan Drake, he is charismatic, witty and funny a cocky son-of-a-bitch when it comes down to it just like Sony themselves! So yeah I would say Nathen especially since we lost Lara to the Cross-console platforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bos10George Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I'm old school. It was always either Crash Bandicoot or Spyro in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus1343 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Crash Bandicoot no question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyc138 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 So many great Playstation mascots from my childhood have gone multiplatform so it seems like I kind of have to dig for an answer. Twenty years ago I would have easily said Solid Snake or Cloud but current day would probably be Nathan Drake as even Crash and Spyro are on the Xbox now.

Fr_0zt Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Ratchet & Clank or Sackboy ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phlegeth Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Kat or Spyro, they're fun characters. Even if he's been on everything, Spyro's still a PlayStation boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmaCroft Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Hi @Bushido7745785, what a neat idea for a podcast! I'm wondering where I can find any previous entries of it, it'd be nice to hear about it. Back on topic now! Although not being quite the mascot nor having any sort of exclusivity on the console itself in recent days, I'd say that the character that represents PlayStation the most, for me, it's definitely HER. Lara Croft, the iconic main character of Tomb Raider, is my favourite ever PlayStation mascot. The series itself, Tomb Raider, was an action-adventure with a huge focus on puzzle-solving, with Lara exploring ancient tombs and dealing with lost civilizations. It was pioneeristic back in the days and worldwide famous, mostly thanks to its protagonist and her charisma (and yes, quite unfortunately also thanks to her more than generous cleavage...) and, although having lost a lot of what really made her character a ture PlayStation icon, I still believe that Lara Croft and Tomb Raider are still recognized as ones of the most famous 90's PlayStation mascot. Naughty Dog's Crash Bandicoot would definitely be my 2nd choice, and it's not a coincidence that Nathan Drake it's deservedly recognized as today's PlayStation mascot.

Lava_Yuki Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Mine was also Crash and Coco Bandicoot, those were my first ever Playstation games and the characters I always associated most with Playstation. Spyro, Lara Croft and Solid Snake are others as these games are what I always played a lot growing up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ147 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Kat from Gravity Rush all the way. And need more Gravity Rush games to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viscera1900 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 For the longest time; Solid Snake is the character that represents Playstation for me. My second pick would be this karaoke loving dude, a guy who loves to curb stomp people's face and most importantly he loves boobs.... like me 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
