PlayStation 5 revealed itself in all its glory last night. Or rather, let's say that that should have been the effect. But not everyone liked the "futuristic" lookthe. Sony has been very daring with the lines of its next-generation console, and Twitter has noticed it. Since last night, the social network has been flooded with memes and teases comparing the design of the PlayStation 5 to anything. Here is one top 10 of the funniest.
# 10. PlayStation 5, antidiluvian PC design

This must be particularly bad for Sony. Being compared to a PC tower so old it has a floppy drive it's bad enough. But being confronted with a computer running Windows Vista instead of the Xbox Series X is terrible: it is not the Microsoft rival they would have expected.
# 9. PS5 enlisted in the Navy

Who will buy the PlayStation 5 just to play naval battle will have undergone the custom edition. Now it just needs to know how big it is and if it floats to really turn it into an aircraft carrier. Although we will struggle to find anyone who wants to try to put it in the water.
# 8. Sony BMW presents the PlayStation 5

Be compared to a BMW i8 that's a compliment, right?
# 7. Like Donald's beak

Here the conspiracy arises immediately. May Disney be ready to buy Sony too? Is this another of their subliminal messages?
# 6. An "exotic" look

Another custom PlayStation 5. THE Destiny 2's fan can't wait to get their hands on this exotic helmet.
# 5. PlayStation 5 like Dragonball's Cell

Let's try to look positive: Cell was a droid that worked very well (albeit a bit violent) and this was its final form. This tweet Sony should see it as a compliment to their designers.
# 4. Visionary architects

This might be the best comparison ever: if it weren't in the center of the picture I wouldn't have noticed it's a PS5. When we say "a work of design".
#3. PlayStation 5 in cartoleria

Do-it-yourself recipe for a next-generation console? All you need is the PS4 is a white ring binder notebook.
#2. Always connected

The most common comment is "it looks like a WiFi modem". Before this tweet I would have said he was wrong.
# 1. One console to tame them all

Maybe that's why they didn't present the new game on Gollum?
