This is nice: PlayStation UK has announced that it will be sponsoring London Pride 2017, which is currently scheduled to take place in the English capital between 24th June and 9th July. For those of you who don’t know, the annual summer festival attracts millions to the city every year, and is designed to celebrate the LGBT community.
It’s unclear exactly what Sony’s involvement will be, but YouTube channel PlayStation Access will be milling around, and it’s probably safe to assume that it’ll be bringing a few consoles along for people to play on. Other sponsors this year include supermarket giant Tesco, Barclays bank, and many more.

For the gayers. (Is that too inappropriate?)
Fair play to them. Nice to see them sponsoring something positive.
@MadAussieBloke We can always hope.
@ApostateMage 4 the gaymers sounds better
@ApostateMage gayers/gaymers is good lol.
Hey PlayStation! Come to the Dublin one next week too! Be great craic
@ApostateMage no, not at all. I can only speak for myself, but as a gay man, I thought that was hilarious.....made I chuckle 😆
Excellent stuff, nice one Sony!
@ApostateMage I don't think so but best not use it as the slogan
Thanks for the dates push square, hopefully if i cant meet miss right i can atleast hunt for miss right now...oh and talk about games and stuff too 🤗
As one of them pesky gays "This is for the gayers" made me laugh out loud
Awesome.
Well isn't this nice. Us gaymers rejoice!
I do think Playstation have a more of a foothold in the gay community than Xbox so it makes sense
As someone who couldn't give two figs about someone's sexual/gender orientation I always wonder what it really means to a company to sponsor something like this, other than a bit of positive press. Personally I'd prefer them to put the money in to charitable causes that actually help people in serious need, this has the same impact on me as someone sponsoring a football cup...
