It turns out that the original PlayStation's iconic boot screen logo was actually a 3D model, as some hackers are keen to show us.
The PS1's boot screen is one of the most iconic images of the fifth generation of video game consoles, but it's been hiding a secret all along. Despite its static appearance that led many to believe it was just a 2D model manipulated to look 3D, the PS1 logo is actually a 3D model, with the P and S existing as two separate parts (via Kotaku).
Twitter user Scuttlepunk first revealed this interesting fact to us with an image that shows the boot logo from an alternate angle. Programmer Lilith then posted a video of the logo moving in real-time to show it a little further.
