For ALL those who still say "No GTA", "No Gran Turismo", "No Persona", "No Twisted Metal", etc., I tell you this: other references are also in getting the official objective game trophies, which aren't shown in this video.
This game is like the Roger Rabbit and Ready Player One of homages Too good! Also, R.I.P. Battle Arena Toshinden for a launch title homage. The most forgotten fighting game series of all time and sometimes for good reasons.
I love how much of a love letter to PlayStation history this game is. Fierce warriors, giants and soldiers have never been this cute! Pretty much everything I can think of is here and accounted for (Except for ModNation Racers but that is depressingly unsurprising). Even third-party titles like Tekken and Crash Bandicoot are here! It's kinda heartwarming, honestly.
Crash Bandicoot originally came out in 1996 on the PS1 and was originally created by Naughty Dog, it’s not exactly third party. Not that I know what classifies as a “ third party “ game though.
@@jane1975 The original crash games + bash were published by sony, that's why you can only find the og ps1 crash games in playstation and not on xbox or nintendo.
I had no doubt this was going to happen. In my haste to upload, I've missed some in the edit. Let's get a list going...

This is great! I've been waiting for this video. Now I can understand a lot of these references. Also, just a small correction, but the game at 8:38 is actually Jak and Daxter. You can tell by the bot's goggles and how the animation is based on an idle animation in the Jak games. EDIT: Too bad there's still no Twisted Metal reference... that's the only omission that puzzles me. That and Gran Turismo.
@@SomePkmnlovingdude bruh I’m not saying I’m HAPPY there’s no Twisted Metal Astrobot, but there’s literally a Twisted Metal reference in the game in the form of a trophy that’s just a fact
You missed some in the ice portion in of Cooling Springs like Until Dawn and Abzu. Edit: There's also a nod to Ninja Bots, a minigame from The Playroom on PS4, on a tv near the Lara Croft easter egg as well.
So, I wanted to see the crash bandicoot reference but accidentally clicked on the monster hunter reference. This game can be a lot darker with the wrong mind
heavenly sword was a ninja theory game, a microsoft studio now, so maybe they didn't want to reference it. twisted metal is referenced in a trophy, same goes for gran turismo. starhawk missing is sad, yes, i hope japan studio will put more references in the game as post-content free update. this game IS pratically playstation all stars ahah
Memory Meadow = PlayStation 1 SSD Speedway = PlayStation 2 + Playstation Portable Cooling Springs = PlayStation 3 + PlayStation Vita GPU Jungle = Playstation 4
As much as I love all these references, especially during the ps1 and ps2 days, it still slightly hurts they couldn't sneak in some Klonoa reference in, here or in the achievements as far as I'm aware.
Really cool video, had to check this out since I didn't get all the references. Its crazy to think that there is so many Playstation games, and some I have never heard of. Also, I think you missed a Until Dawn reference. When you first get to the ice level, there should be a group of bots dressed similarly to those characters on their own tiny icy island.
@@GrizGaming That's weird though because there are a lot of other characters in here that they would've had to get the rights to since they aren't officially PlayStation-only characters anymore. Like Crash and Spyro for example.
@@GrizGaming well yeah it is good just how many they got in here. I’m just saying it’s a shame that a mascot like Abe didn’t get to make the cut. Especially when you have things like God of War getting two Easter Eggs.
I'm just going to repeat what I said in a reply, I think the Ace Combat reference is just for the series as a whole(since it was PS until 6, and Xi I guess) and not Electrosphere since that one had 2 very distinct planes which is not the one there. Of course I could be wrong though.
@@netherwolf3012 yes, still kinda odd and very unprofessional in my opinion. I mean the aircraft is also on PS3 titles that came later, but they had zero idea of what they were doing and compared with the other referece of other games it feel wrong. They literally choose AC2 paint scheme why not use AC2 fictional aircraft instead?
@@robertolesiliatotacchini5023 Not sure really. I've heard in some places that it was a little time pressured if I remember right so maybe it would make sense if true?
The references are cute and cool. However, it's weird that we never get a Tales, Neptunia, Time Crisis, Yakuza, or Disgaea reference. However, it would be really funny if we get a Senran Kagura reference.
13:38 ACE COMBAT? Man! In my head i said to me "Meh, it's not going to happen" Whaaat? I'm amazed, but why there is no GT reference? Hmm.. I hope you upload all the artifacts and use every function of them, like open the disc tray of the PS2, anyway, New sub! :D
The only thing I don't know is if that is Electrosphere. I think it is just Ace Combat in general. Electrosphere probably would have had the Night Raven or Geopelia if it was specific I think.

The credits might as well have said "Special thanks to every studio, developer, and game who has made our journey to stardom possible".
One of the bots in the hub next to the PS3 area throws a boomerang over and over referencing the boomerang controller :)
So does that mean Astro's species were the one's acting out all the PlayStation games? That's...weird, but also kinda adorable.
that makes so much sense and is so cute. I thought they were just doing silly stuff but they are actually running the games?
Woah deep
This game looks incredible for being free with ps5, I’m so mad I wasn’t able to get one

When I saw the Buster sword and the light hitting it just like it does in the FF7 intro screen, absolutely magical.

Truly magical stuff.
woah, they even referenced vib ribbon :0
I was really surprised with that
I think they also mentioned it in like a meeting or something like that way back
very pleasantly surprised by that one in particular
I'm actually so happy they referenced symphony of the night
I was expecting Sir Daniel to pop out of the coffin so that legit got me.
what about vib-ribbon?

It probably referring to red screen of death from ps2

Even Soul Reaver, didnt see that in the first place. Just wow
I smiled the whole game, sooo many references)
No way there's a soul reverie references, this game is awesome man.
That was the one I was most stoked with. God I want that series remastered or remade.
It's nice to see Sony acknowledge that series.

Well, makes sense since the characters in that franchise were paper thin..
Well, it may be nothing more than a tech demo, but, as Prince Andrew once said, I can't say "no" to a free go in a playroom.
I don't need food, I need Ape Escape 4 on PS5
I'm genuinely impressed they put Raziel in. I thought people had forgotten Soul Reaver.

You forgot to mention Beyond Two Souls from the Labo room.
Damn, henry stickmin's amount of references cant beat to this.
As much as I love all these references, especially during the ps1 and ps2 days, it still slightly hurts they couldn't sneak in some Klonoa reference in, here or in the achievements as far as I'm aware.
They only left out the Psp go phone, the PSX DVR, and PS2 TV from Britian
2:24
by far my favorite easter egg in this game Puppeteer was hella fun and i still play it
So they know vib ribbon is a thing but.....WHERE THE HELL IS VIB RIBBON 2 OR A REMAKE TO BE EXACT!!!?
Vib Ribbon 2 is actually a thing, though it's a Japan exclusive
For a cuddly game it’s got high Cruelty Potential...

Fun fact: GPU Jungle is the only world that has all the characters from a single developer (Naughty Dog and Fromsoftware respectively).
I was hoping for some persona references or easter eggs on playroom
4:24 is precious oml,,
God of war shows up twice
Everyone loved that
It's odd that there's no Oddworld reference here, considering Abe was one of PlayStation's mascots back in the day.
I assume they didn't feel like going out to get the rights for Abe.
I interviewed the dev before launch and asked that. That's pretty much the deal, yeah.
@@GrizGaming That's weird though because there are a lot of other characters in here that they would've had to get the rights to since they aren't officially PlayStation-only characters anymore. Like Crash and Spyro for example.

Its kinda strange that they featured an aircraft that happeared for the first time in an Xbox esclusive title but with ace combat 2 paint scheme.
