PlayStation Network logo - Image 1Remember the new PlayStation logo registered by Sony from a few weeks ago? Well, it turns out that they'll be using it for the PlayStation Network. Probably only for Europe, at least. Just yesterday, a scan from a European magazine (or maybe just a flier) surfaced in PS3 Only, with the newly-patented logo of Sony: the sphere-like icon fronted by the four controller buttons - square, triangle, circle, and X.

In the scan, we see the same logo above the words "PlayStation® Network" so it's pretty convenient for one to assume that the online service is now being represented with this icon.

We're not sure if this also applies to any other regions aside from Europe. And we're not even sure how official this new logo for PSN Europe is itself - it does have its "This is Living" logo at the bottom left corner though. For now, as far as this printed ad is concerned ("GRATIS LIDMAATSCHAP" FTW!!!), it's what we have.

For everyone that is not familiar with the language written. The scan would be from Dutch written magazine. (Gratis Lidmaatschap = Free Membership) ._.

And I still don't think the new logo looks very bad.. although it perhaps could have been a bit better.

PS3 is doomed because of a logo ? You should sue whoever dropped you down a flight of steps as a kid.

And here i thought anyone could not be any more idiotic.

[sarcasm]PS3 is doom from a logo i high doubt that, if that was the case xbox 1 logo would have been the system downfall[/sarcasm]

rawrskies he wasn't dropped from a flight of stairs, he was bored like this, probably cause during his mother pregnancy she was drinking alot....which leads to mental problem.

Ah whats the famous line........"Cocaine is a hell of a drug" LOL

i wasn't greatly impressed or interested in the logo when it was first shown, but now knowing it's to be used in connection to the playstation network. the face button logos are wrapped around a sphere - which is representing the earth maybe? this would promote the online community and the multiplayer side to gaming.

looking at the logo this way, i think it's quite a funky creation.
