    Are we praying that the disc loads, or are we praying along with the holy sounds that were the PlayStation startup sounds?

      Little of both. This is where you might encounter a boot error, between the white and black screens. But I never saw one that I didn’t forcibly make happen when modding. At least not with PlayStation’s. Xbox red rings were common as fuck, and they would also occur during the startup logo sequence.

      Or praying the space ship flies true.

      I remember there was an Easter egg but I can’t recall if it was related to no disc and then loading an audio cd or something else. You’d have a small space ship flying around and towards and away from the screen almost like a screensaver.

      It’s been almost 30 years though so I’m a little hazy on the details.

      It’s bugging me that I can’t find it online anywhere.

      Why would the disk not load? I properly stored it on the middle of the uncased CD stack.
