Maybe there are even more actually. It’s tough to keep track but I did see 5 and I was thinking maybe 6 if unless one of the cubes had an elliptical orbit or maybe I’m just making a hasty conclusion. It can be difficult to keep track of how many cubes there are because of how small they are and how often they are obscured by larger cubes. Who knows
The cubes aren't different sizes, they're actually the same size. It's just that they're at different distances. See how the on the system configuration the cubes are the size.
I'm 13 and never knew about the RSoD until now. Why do I know what a PS2 is? My dad had one when I was about 3 to 5. The startup scared me ONLY IF the TV volume was loud. And when was I 3? 2010. So my dad had it in 2010-2012. Or maybe he just put it up somewhere out of my reach? Idk. But when I see this, I feel like I'm in a hellishly universe. Or, it makes me feel something is at the bottom of where the red is coming from
@@deletedaccount3187 I had one my mum sold it and I use to play Madagascar (I don’t remember getting this screen but I think I got it) this is one scary console (I’m 13 as well)
The whole thine was eerie, agreed. But still, I miss those days a lot, and sadly, this new generation will never be able to experience those good times.
I think it's also creepy because the animation on the screen descends down into the unknown, because you rarely saw this screen as it is, and that concept of going into the unknown is primally scary to us.
My family used to scratch movies all the time, but games were sacred. I never actually experienced this lol. The regular startup freaked me out tho. I imagine I wouldn't have liked the RSOD very much either.
0:43 the jewels in the background reflecting off the blocks was the coolest image i ever seen i always wish it could be set as the main screen or become a theme on the ps4
I like the ambience the RSoD produces. It's like you're at the beach. Waves crashing onto the shore with the wind blowing. Sounds kinda relaxing in a way.
When I was a kid I had nightmares about this screen, I'd be sucked into thwe screen and teleported to ranodm places xD Then me dad would carry me off lol It was so wierd I was scared of this xD
Me, a 6 year old, when I rent a game from Blockbuster and go home to play it but the disc was slightly scratched so then my PS2 sends me to the depths of hell because that's the only reasonable thing to do
Jeez, that really is creepy >.> I don't think I ever had the disc read error screen or if I did I was too pissed off by the disc not working to notice the change in the "music" It sounds a lot slower and lower-pitched in tone, almost like the console is sick.
So at my school's after school care, there was a PS2, and when the red screen came a child started crying and somebody else thought the console was possessed.
Whats always been strange to me is the beach like sound the play station has by default, and then the red screen just makes this console very very creepy idk why, plus the feeling of lonelyness that this gives, i kinda wish consoles these days had these back would make them so interesting to explore or trigger
0:57 Man i am TOO familiar with this. The "Menu" loading but INSTANTLY fading out. i KNEW what this means and i KNEW what was coming. as a kid i would literally get myself into the routine of having the TV remote next to me "Just in case" and holy fuck the amount of times i scrambled for the remote to hit that big red off button for the TV. The red screen of death terrified me that much. Now a days...Not too much. Its more of a "Oh...well...fucking shit. That was unexpected." if and when the RSOD would come up once in a while.
It scared me when I was 6 years old me and my dad was about to play some mortal kombat Armageddon when I was 6 and the disc wasn’t loading so he cleans the disc he told me to put it back in so I did and it wasn’t working so this time I cleaned the disc and we got the red screen of death I remember I cried so hard my dad had to comfort me when we got the red screen of death I was crying so hard I piss my pants and my dad hold onto me until I was Better and happy what a nice dad he was too bad he got divorced when I was 12 he brought the ps2 and mk Armageddon with him ☹️👈
..ugh just like the ps1's fearful harmony, i got haunted by this damned screen when i first encountered it... the low drone and the ominous red void that pretty much looks like a vortex to hell easily startled me and caused me to chuck the controller away then hide under my blanket and block my ears, hoping my older brother or anyone else comes into my room and turn the console off cause i was too shocked and didn't have the guts to turn it off myself. ahh, it's nice to revisit some childhood trauma after many years
I think it's actually pretty calming and kind off an interesting atmosphere, experience, it reminds me of being at the beach midnight and just hearing the waves and the thunderstorm. The red fog and the glass cubes make it feel like if it was "the safest place in hell" or something like that. Basically, I think it's not scary.
I think the PS2 home screen and the screen with the clock invented the great relaxation phenomenon known as Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR). Why? Listen to the ocean sounds for about 12 hours when you're sleeping. 😍😍 You're welcome.
I don't understand why when Startup is slow to read disk or when it plays the disc after menu while the red screen of death the red color is lighter & why the sound is different
1:08 this sound scared me all the time. I was just a little kid back when my dad played his PS2 with me, like damn. But it only scared me because the TV was loud! And am I the only one who slightly gets uneasy with that circle spinning around?
Peace and tranquility, the first words your mind thinks of when entering this place. You fall into a deep relaxation, the stress of your day seems to disappear. Till, it happens. You're sent to the this awful place full of red. As it fills your eyes you can't help but feel anxious worried that it's coming for you. With no hesitation you run.
@@XG-OFFICIAL-59 unfortunately the gods of this platform will not let me continue your story. But if you wish to dig further. Look for Fearful harmony. If you find me. Please do respond ;)
That one cube on the RSOD is just there like: oh god mate, looks like you screwed up real bad, quick, get a PS1 or PS2 disc into here before it’s too late
It scary to see the screen like this special if it my favourite game like Tom and jerry the game will just frozen on the loading screen or other games and that fact we try to clean it too but still doesn't work listening to the red screen sound make me feel that I won't sleep tonight 😌💔🚶🏻♀️
Ps2 has definitely the most beautiful startup, sounds, menus etc.
ROBOTOX and the most terrifying error message
20 Shades Of RaichuTM Remembering what it was like to face it 7 years ago...
With PlayStation®2 Game
PS1 has the best startup 'sound'
jamesbowles77 what? You need knowledge and a company to make a console. And use Blender to make your own startups before yelling.
PS2 menu = soft beach sounds
RSOD = thunderstorm in the background
The RSOD is Wave sounds from the beach
They're basically the same as the ambience in the startup animation.
@@pulseter But listen carefully and you can hear boiling.
THX logo = thunderstorm in the background
-raining in real life- me: oh crap
The thing that scared me the most was the fact the cube was all by itself and it looked like it was ready to plot my murder.
There are 4 cubes
Actually there are 5 cubes
Maybe there are even more actually. It’s tough to keep track but I did see 5 and I was thinking maybe 6 if unless one of the cubes had an elliptical orbit or maybe I’m just making a hasty conclusion. It can be difficult to keep track of how many cubes there are because of how small they are and how often they are obscured by larger cubes. Who knows
The cubes aren't different sizes, they're actually the same size. It's just that they're at different distances. See how the on the system configuration the cubes are the size.
The Enrichment Center reminds you, that the floating red cube of death, will never threaten to stab you, and in fact cannot speak.
I'm an adult now, and to me, there's still something existentially terrifying about this screen.
this red screen scared me so much that I was like what....... was......... that and then started crying
I'm 13 and never knew about the RSoD until now. Why do I know what a PS2 is? My dad had one when I was about 3 to 5. The startup scared me ONLY IF the TV volume was loud. And when was I 3? 2010.

What a loser..
i’m 20 years old, and i feel the exact same. i was terrified of this as a child.
0:00 You are in Heaven
0:05 You are in Earth
1:00 You are in Hell
4:07 You have flown back to the Earth
John why u mad
@John what?
@John did you have a bad day? Whats wrong?
everything was good until that one guy shows up
@Jjoonn he is just a swear demon robot, i report him for graphic violence.
that initial sound is quite haunting, then afterwards that white noise sound is actually soothing
hi clovis, i found u
I can't be the only one that thought *everything* was really eerie about the PS2 startup, not just the RSOD... right?
You're not alone buddy
No your not
Nope, I thought so too
Its like a beautiful mix of charm and eeriness, just like our existence
The whole thine was eerie, agreed. But still, I miss those days a lot, and sadly, this new generation will never be able to experience those good times.
A gamers way of sitting on the beach listening to the waves
Exactly, I don't get why some people think it's so scary
SirIzalot Because how dark the sound like come on dude don't act like you DON'T know about it tho though. 😑.
At night might I add
@@sirizalot cause it feels like nothingness
that sound scared me when i was a child 😅
TThe playstation start up and the red screen gave me nightmares omega lul
Same. I unplugged the cable so I don't hear it. XD
@@georgemaccoy1564 Lol same!
Zerg Rebirth Same :D
Zerg Rebirth i Remember that it chilled my blood away and I got scared
I was traumatized by this red screen of death that i was expecting some jumpscare in this video.
Shame for me to still have to be careful heading into fearful harmony and RSOD videos just because of younger experiences 10+ years ago.
5 years ago, I saw a PS2 RSOD with a jumpscare by lumpycheesegames
@Strange things are happening to Woody yes
Right here: th-cam.com/video/AYrwJAZ_rEQ/w-d-xo.html
I think it's also creepy because the animation on the screen descends down into the unknown, because you rarely saw this screen as it is, and that concept of going into the unknown is primally scary to us.
Back when we scratched all our games😎
Yes omg... I used to "clean" them with soap and vinegar lol...
My family used to scratch movies all the time, but games were sacred. I never actually experienced this lol.
The regular startup freaked me out tho. I imagine I wouldn't have liked the RSOD very much either.
This can also happen with dual layer games
Oh yeah good old times when i tried and clean burnout dominator
0:59 When I get viruses on my laptop
When my ex left me for another guy.
oh yeah i remember you Red screen of death how are you my old friend? sill scaring young children? good. I'll see you again soon, have fun!!^^
That red screen scared me so much when I was a little kid it's funny that I still get goosebumps listening to that now after all these years
I wonder who was the heartbroken soul that recorded this
0:54
Me when I was a kid I see the RSOD
Me as a kid: dad look! New startup!
Dad: ...
Ok, the red screen of death sounds like a cry for help or a howl.
This is the thing what gave me nightmares as a kid. First time soiling my pants in fear
But it’s so beautiful
Me too! 😱
Its so beautiful and gives me chills...
Please insert a PlayStation
or PlayStation 2 format disc.
Francesca Agre ok!
Francesca Agre oh jeez.........I am scared (Creeped Out Me)
This screen is how I found out the PS2 could play PS1 Games. I barely used PS1 Games in it though.
Please insert a PlayStation®
or PlayStation®2 format disc.
No
0:43 the jewels in the background reflecting off the blocks was the coolest image i ever seen i always wish it could be set as the main screen or become a theme on the ps4
I like the ambience the RSoD produces. It's like you're at the beach. Waves crashing onto the shore with the wind blowing. Sounds kinda relaxing in a way.
the menu screen does that too
Oh look the gateway to Hell *don't you just love nightmares cause I don't*
When I was a kid I had nightmares about this screen, I'd be sucked into thwe screen and teleported to ranodm places xD Then me dad would carry me off lol It was so wierd I was scared of this xD
I had nightmares were I was swallowed by a monster and this is what I saw falling through its stomach
i feel genuine terror due to this video
The sounds of the RSOD remind me of a beach during a stormy night
It sounds so.... Ambient...
Yes
I remember playing this in 2010 when I see red screen I scream and run to my parents room.
Thank you for uploading in such high quality
THIS PS2 WON'T START
Just fix it.
With PlayStation® Game
@@francescaagre156 luckily I still have my Playstation 2 slim and the original console the models that is
Idk why but, even when I was a six year old, I always found the ps2 noises beautiful and comforting
Dude the sound and color scared me when I was younger like i thought something was gonna come out of my closet and kill me
Damn, I was afraid of this screen.
It was the worst thing in history of video games
Me, a 6 year old, when I rent a game from Blockbuster and go home to play it but the disc was slightly scratched so then my PS2 sends me to the depths of hell because that's the only reasonable thing to do
I just love seeing those little orbs move around it's just satisfying
I used to get scared by this but now I’m not scared anymore
There may be thousands of consoles in the future but it will never be compared to the unique and beautiful tune of PlayStation 2.
chills every single time i hear that red screen
i was scared of this sounds while being a kid. now it feels like a masterpiece
grown ups and their childhood playstation nightmare: **red screen of death**
me as a kid, playstation nightmare **none**
Jeez, that really is creepy >.> I don't think I ever had the disc read error screen or if I did I was too pissed off by the disc not working to notice the change in the "music"
It sounds a lot slower and lower-pitched in tone, almost like the console is sick.
Oh didn't expect to see you here, hi.
The red screen of death scared me like crazy as a little kid
I was a 4 year old when I had this console this scared me to death I went under the bed or ran to my back garden
So at my school's after school care, there was a PS2, and when the red screen came a child started crying and somebody else thought the console was possessed.
It probably is possessed tbh
wow 4k look so great
Whats always been strange to me is the beach like sound the play station has by default, and then the red screen just makes this console very very creepy idk why, plus the feeling of lonelyness that this gives, i kinda wish consoles these days had these back would make them so interesting to explore or trigger
The nostalgia 😭
i miss playing on PS2 but the red screen still scare me until today
Yes gosh i miss the PlayStation2 start up dont you
@master bro The creepiest console for me is the original xbox
I was run-out-of-the-room terrified of this as a kid/teen, but I thought I'd be over it by now..... Nope, still gives me shivers. Why???
Me on Any other consles: Damn! The disc is scratched!
Me on PlayStation2: OK OK! I'll change the disc! I gotta escape!
OH MY GOD NOSTALGIC HIT ME SO HARD OH MY GOD. 😭😭😭 bring back ps2 in my life..
I thought you were too scared to play it lmao
Por que não continuaram com, pelo menos esses sons nos Playstations seguidos? Era tão incrível tudo isso 🔥❤️
I used to watch those glowing orbs float around on the browser screen for much longer than intended sometimes. This was the baseline of my childhood
it's a beach with wind and splashing waves. For a ps this is unnerving just because it doesn't fit, yet it fits... if you get what I mean.
I used to get terrified whenever this screen popped, and now as an adult it still scares the shit out of me
If ps2 actually played at 2160p at 50FPS back then, I couldn't even imagine what graphics and FPS we'll have now.
Same for me. I love 4k 60fps PlayStation 2 RSoD very much bcz of awesome graphics & animation 😍
Me:puts in scratched disk
Sony: so you have chosen HELL
0:57
Man i am TOO familiar with this. The "Menu" loading but INSTANTLY fading out. i KNEW what this means and i KNEW what was coming.

The red screen of death terrified me that much.
Now a days...Not too much. Its more of a "Oh...well...fucking shit. That was unexpected." if and when the RSOD would come up once in a while.
I think its the sound when it first appears that makes it seem creepy.
this shit Scared the living out of me
the fact that it look like we are falling into a red abyss and has a creepy ambiance
just shiver my spine 😭
This is pretty soothing.
My god the entire console itself still scares me
The kind of thing that will haunt you in your sleep for decades.
Literally scared me as a kid
It scared me when I was 6 years old me and my dad was about to play some mortal kombat Armageddon when I was 6 and the disc wasn’t loading so he cleans the disc he told me to put it back in so I did and it wasn’t working so this time I cleaned the disc and we got the red screen of death I remember I cried so hard my dad had to comfort me when we got the red screen of death I was crying so hard I piss my pants and my dad hold onto me until I was Better and happy what a nice dad he was too bad he got divorced when I was 12 he brought the ps2 and mk Armageddon with him ☹️👈
I was scared of DVD screen saver when I was young. Really young.
Why? I know this was 2 months ago but why?
Same
My big brother found his at our grandpa's house and we decided to play Guitar Hero 2 and he also showed us the red screen of death with this video.
The red screen of death scares the crap out of me
I remember when I was a little kid this screen and the music that played scared the piss outta me
I remember getting this at primary school trying to play some fighting game or something
..ugh just like the ps1's fearful harmony, i got haunted by this damned screen when i first encountered it... the low drone and the ominous red void that pretty much looks like a vortex to hell easily startled me and caused me to chuck the controller away then hide under my blanket and block my ears, hoping my older brother or anyone else comes into my room and turn the console off cause i was too shocked and didn't have the guts to turn it off myself. ahh, it's nice to revisit some childhood trauma after many years

looks nice in 4k actually
Since then when I was a kid the ocean noises reminds me of an island on which is a volcano and nobody lives there
I remember little old me would run under my blankets and cover my ears with pillows when I knew the RSOD was coming lol
I think the PS2 home screen and the screen with the clock invented the great relaxation phenomenon known as Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR). Why? Listen to the ocean sounds for about 12 hours when you're sleeping. 😍😍
You're welcome.
'Invented' You can't invent human senses.
I miss the ps2 so much
Because of this red screen, I always mute the volume before starting up a game.
We all did😂😂
I don't understand why when Startup is slow to read disk or when it plays the disc after menu while the red screen of death the red color is lighter & why the sound is different
1:08 this sound scared me all the time. I was just a little kid back when my dad played his PS2 with me, like damn. But it only scared me because the TV was loud! And am I the only one who slightly gets uneasy with that circle spinning around?
I remember when I like 5, that shit scared the hell out of me. What’s worse was that I was in my room alone at nighttime.
I loved all the ps2 startup and menu sounds but god that red screen always scared the shit out of me
Calming start up sound when it’s working, terrifying death is the only option sound when it’s not a playstation or PlayStation 2 disk
I will not lie, I slept to the sound of the strange wind
I had a nightmare of this once. I was eaten by a monster and falling through its mouth I saw this
the sounds are so satisfying
even the rsod lol
Consoles now adays: happy and joyful
Consoles back then: gave you nightmares
When i first saw this screen i was scared😫😫
The CCs are excellent
I feel like I’m not the only one who that red screen scared the bejesus out of as a kid
The subtitles are glorious
And the eeriy wind nosies sounds like the wave of the ocean its so........peaceful

That one cube on the RSOD is just there like: oh god mate, looks like you screwed up real bad, quick, get a PS1 or PS2 disc into here before it’s too late
It’s crazy how I got my ps2 in 2004 and it still works today in 2022. Edit: it was my older brothers I got the RSOD when I first played it now in 2078
When i'm alone and seen the red screen, my heart will fast
It scary to see the screen like this special if it my favourite game like Tom and jerry the game will just frozen on the loading screen or other games and that fact we try to clean it too but still doesn't work listening to the red screen sound make me feel that I won't sleep tonight 😌💔🚶🏻♀️
Scared the hell out of me when I was little, and it scared me more to think what was at the bottom. lol
The sounds of the PS2 bios will never not be beautiful 😌
Now I can watch this horror in 4K.
Me: **forgets to put on gta san andreas disc**
Red Screen Of Hell: you dont wanna sleep today, dont you?
I actually remember having multiple nightmares because of this, I legit thought my PS2 was gonna catch on fire lmao
