Here is the psone logo:

And I was at Target today and all the pepsi had this logo:

Odd?

I don't know, I just thought of the psone when I saw it.

Close but not exactly the same.
Anyway that kind of font signals that the product is clean/stripped down/simple, which is an appropriate message for both PSone (The PSone brand was not launched until after the PS2 was released) and Pepsi Light, (which is where that logo is from)

I doubt that they've reintroduced that logo, unless they were doing some sort of retro thing. IMO it's totally out of place in today's advertising climate.

he did post the shirt originally, actually. But he edited his post

Would you look at that, the logo does have that font!

Amazing what half a second of typing "pepsi" and clicking "Pepsi product facts" will reveal!

For those who say this thread is pointless, at least it's somewhat related to gaming. (sorta...)

I'd say this is a little less random...

Ben himself has told us mods that more spammy kind of threads are ok.

Threads that are obviously s**t will still be locked, of course, but I see nothing wrong with this...

It's just because they both whored on this whole minimalist garbage movement.
