My absolute favorite fleece jacket has a tiny Playstation logo on it, just between the shoulder blades. I got this jacket as a door prize for attending one of Sony's E3 parties, and I still wear it regularly when it's too cold for short sleeves but too warm for a full winter coat. I've gotten a few appreciative comments on it over the years, including a couple of people who asked me if I work for Sony. No, I just shill for them, apparently...
Anyway, I feel like going back in time and telling those people they'll soon be able to be as cool as me. That's because Sony has announced an expansion of their PlayStation licensing program that will allow the PlayStation logo to appear on a "variety of lifestyle products from apparel to everyday items" as
the press release puts it.
The only specific potential product shown in the announcement is a T-shirt (pictured), but we're relatively sure anything that's wearable will soon come in a version with the PlayStation's signature triangle, circle, square and X buttons. We're more intrigued by the prospect of getting PlayStation branding on "everyday items." Does that mean PlayStation toothpaste? PlayStation deodorant?
Spaceballs the flame thrower?
