Locked: [Sony Online Entertainment] PS4 Pride 2019 Console Theme

Would be cooler if dynamic theme. But I like the rainbow colors, add some rgb flavor to ps4. Up voted as free is free

It's a pretty iffy theme though let's be honest. They could have made it much better.....

I support Sony in doing this. Big vote up. [removed]

Side note, the 2018 theme and avatar are also still listed (and free)

EDIT: it appears Sony has been supporting Pride for a number of years;

I care for all my fellow humans struggling in this cut throat world we live in

Just wondering if Soyny does a mother and fathers day theme?

umm, question.... i like the color scheme. but why does that sector have to pick the rainbow as their colors.... like the complete color set as their colors. can't they just choose a few colors ? like most sports teams. i'm not trying to come off like a richard here and i'm NOT trying to sound homophobic in any way or sense... but isn't that like being greedy with things. unless each color represents each of the sectors then i get it, but if it's just a lazy way of saying hey im this, you are that, and that person's this let's take the rainbow color scheme for it all then i'm sorry but i find that lazy. like why not have someone create an actual logo that can be worn to represent ?

and make it look awesome. if i was in that sector and was recognized by the rainbow as my "flag" to fly i wouldn't like that at all. the rainbow doesn't ooze anything strong about it, bigots and the such already think weak people, that you can't hold your own (if you go by actual dumb comments and not movies that try and instill a totally different message). i would want something that says yep i'm this and that doesn't change me in any way, shape or form.

i see the rainbow as 80's party time.... or a record label is putting out a new mix album for party time.

i dunno.... i've always wondered what the true significance is with the rainbow. i have friends that are same gender friendly (i think the word gay isn't nice, it sounds bad along the same lines as saying the N word... gender friendly sounds nicer) but don't feel comfortable asking them as i don't want to put them on the spot or just make an awkward situation. so if someone actually knows chime in.

Decent theme and free, thanks OP.

Could use without the idiotic discussion though. Hundreds of free themes from Sony, but this one triggers people and brings interesting "opinions" out of the woodwork. *sigh*

and the one user had it right.... it's just a theme. if you don't like it then just don't download it. you are but one person in a sea of millions so griping about it for whatever your reason is not going to make them remove it from the store. and you only serve to bring out the uneducated with their comments and personalities that we really don't want here.

It's definitely a form of virtue signaling to get consumers to view them as "the good guy", but personally don't have a problem with it when it's towards a cause supporting freedom to love one another openly. Thanks OP

When corporations think it's OK to offer stuff like this, it's a sign we're heading in the right direction. I don't really care what their motives are; they're a barometer more than an agent of change.

Where do you draw the line between activism and support? DO you have any links of Sony donating to the LGTBQ community?

I didn't think this was a great deal because its a theme and not a game. Geez, who sits there staring at the main screen?

That being said, some people won't agree or accept what other people think. Best thing to do is, make note of them and steer clear.

Commenting back and forth is not going to change anyone's opinion.

People need to find better things to complain about other than themes and women in BFV etc.

Its not a deal.

Wow, I guess when I negotiated a new deal for my Bell Fibe, it also came with special RFD access where I can scroll past deals that don't interest me without barging into the thread to crap all over it or invent reasons to downvote.

This thread should've had one page, max. Don't like it? Scroll past. The downvotes are dumb as hell; none of the reasons even apply.

at this time, 58 downvotes on something free

There's something really absurd going on these days

I think it's because free things belong in the Freebies forum.

Yup. I'm surprised/disappointed to be honest. Never expected this sort of reaction in this day and age.

The term RFD Effect has multiple meanings these days.
