Remember Your First Video Game? New PS4 Ad Takes You Back to 1995

Do you remember your very first gaming console? Sony's latest ad for the upcoming PlayStation 4 will likely leave you pining for your good ol' PS1.

Sony tracks the evolution of its consoles from the '90s through today. The attention paid to detail is impressive: In the PlayStation 1 era (circa 1995), a teenager's room is filled with the British magazine NME (with Massive Attack on the cover) and an Air poster. Fast-forward to the PlayStation 3 era, which launched in 2006, and sitting above the console is a can of Coke Zero (the soda was introduced just one year earlier).

The ad is part of a contest; for a chance to win a PS4, you must guess the correct order in which the PlayStation symbols appear in the video.

The PlayStation 4 will hit shelves in the United States on Nov. 15 for $399. It features new AMD processors and the DualShock 4 controller.
