10 Amazing PS4 Logo Concepts That Sony Could Draw Inspiration From

"Here are 10 PS4 logos that Sony could draw inspiration from."

Personally liked the second one...but I think Sony will come with something better than all of these.

[Conzul]

Far too much colour in all these.

[Timesplitter14]

The problem with many of these concepts, and most console concepts too, is that they look really convoluted and often attempt to look too sci-fi or colorful.

"modern", "minimalistic" and "sleek" are what professional designers are going for these days.

[Thatmattkid]

They were all naff.

[GribbleGrunger]

Fifth Picture down. Without doubt the best.

kinda looks like the Fantastic 4 Logo XD

[Reverent]

Exactly what I thought lol.

Also. holy crap! Gamingbolt putting everything on ONE page for once!

[Ace_Pheonix]

Yeah, too late for Sony to be inspired by anything now. It's a mere 24 hours away now!

[Thatguy-310]

Personally like the last one and the first one. The colors just bring life to the logo.

Same here

[imtheman2013]

I agree, the last one is by far the most creative. But I'm sure Sony already has a great logo in store for the new Playstation.

[Eyeco]

I like it the most as well, maybe because its more friendly, appealing and inviting if you know what I mean ? I don't like the serious hard edged, dark Spider-Man Ish metallic logos anymore it was cool back in 2006, but now ?...Eh not so much

[DERKADER]

As long as it's not Spider Man font.

[clintagious650]

And it begins......

[RememberThe357]

I little late guys. The conference is tomorrow, I'm pretty sure they've ironed out what the consoles logo is going to look like.

[Bobby Kotex]

Only a coupe of those were even close to 'amazing' as the title suggests.

[RGB]

If the console is announced / revealed tomorrow (as many believe)... I'm pretty sure we'll see a logo to, making this article pretty pointless.

[Jamaicangmr]

No
No
No too bad, but no.
No
No
No
No
Gotta be kidding.
No
Hell No.

Next batch please.

#1. Nah. the 4's goofy, and those colours are just too much.

#2. That's... alright. The "playstation 4" underneath is a bit much but I don't think it'd look much better without it. It all kind of looks like a playstation magazine logo.

#3. Nah, bit goofy.

#4. Nah, that looks like a Car logo or something. Cars are lame.

#5. Eh, not doing much for me.

#6. That's kind of neat. Should be the colours of the face buttons though. (i.e. pink not yellow). Also it's a little bit strange. It reads like 4 playstation...

#7. Nah.

#8. Nah.

#9. Nah

#10. That one I like, but it doesn't really indicate that it's a Ps4, and what's the significance of the three dashes at the end?

It'll probably be the PS Vita font but used for "PS Orbis".

No....No they cannot.

I entered the 99designs contest which these are from and now it's been shortlisted to 8 designs in a poll which are simply not "PlayStation"; they don't fit, they don't work; and many are just plain awful.

My design may not be the most original in its aesthetic as it's a modified vector of the PS Vita logo, but it fits, it works, it does the job it needs to do and its raw silhouette form it still works without all the fancy backgrounds, gradients, drop shadows, colours and stuff the others need...

Mine also fits in with a unified brand identity which I feel is very important...

I don't know whether Sony are likely to use 'PS4' as four is an unlucky number in Japan as its pronunciation 'shi' is the same as death.

With PlayStation Vita they took a new approach...Vita means "life" in Latin. With my design for the 'PS4' I'm going for 'PlayStation Vivo', Vivo in Latin means "live".

The "iv" in "Vivo" if softly highlighted in the branding could subtly hint at it as the fourth PlayStation home console without saying it outright.
