A ps3 to 360 comparison, DO NOT START A WAR

joinmeindeath417 · Jul 16, 2009

yes but if you read magazines and websites etc etc etc. people started calling playstation psx because i guess they were too lazy to say the word Playstation, i referred to it as psx because its what people are familiar with.

Once again i do apologize for the confusion.

The only "official" abbreviation is "PSone."

Actually, that was just what they called the smaller version flat out. It even had PSOne on the boxes. They didn't trademark the abbreviations.

I guess what is official doesn't really matter anyway. The PSX and PS1 abbreviations, when use both refer to the original and slim consoles, at least they do to everyone I know.

PS = ~~post script~~ not in use
PSX = always used to describe the first generation of PlayStation
PS1 = always used to differentiate the remake from the first generation (no parrallel port)
PlayStation = generic for both (PSX and PS1).

I've never, ever seen the gray PlayStation called a PS1. Nor have I ever seen the light gray, smaller console called a PSX.

This is really nothing to argue over--I just need to clarify that there is a difference.

No there isn't. And there are first generation versions without the parrallel port.

PSX and PS1 referrs to both the original version and the smaller version.

Only 9000 series which were introduced after the PS1 (100 series) and didn't sell well. PS1 pretty much replaced it.

Anyway, I'm done with this. I made my point.

I think you mean 80gb PS3. They don't make 60gb PS3s anymore.

Are you talking to me? I got my 60gb the day PS3 came out...I mentioned that...

i don't know man i don't know if it is just me but metal gear wasn't just another game to me it was like watching a cg movie to me especially the cut scenes ha

MGS4 was nothing special and I'm quite sure the cut scenes were pre-rendered CGI video's. Not sure on that though.

To me, PSX and PS/PS1 meant PlayStation 1...........they then named the smaller PS1 'PSOne'

But who gives a shit, were talking about how far superior the PS3 is compared to the 360 arent we? :rolleyes:

No we are just establishing they are both inferior to the PC.

DaveK · Jul 16, 2009

Yeah, most people used PSX referring to the PlayStation even though there is a console called the PSX which is a PS2 but has a built in hard-drive and can record TV, i think lol. It flopped.

PlayStation - Original gray model.
PSOne - Slim model.
PlayStation 2 - original fat black model.
PSTwo - Slim model.
PlayStation 3 - Original model.

A smaller PS3 will most likely be called the PSThree.

Man this is a long thread, someone fill me in lol. Are we hatin on the enemy?

As much as I love PC gaming, there are certainly types of games that just work better on consoles, IMO. Consoles are only as inferior to PCs as PCs are inferior to Consoles, for gaming.

I get free porn on my PS3...run linux...so it kind of is a PC at that point??? :confused:

It's not real porn unless you contract a virus :cool:

Linux is like safe sex, whereas windows its the real deal.

uh oh

Consoles always were PCs, just a dumbed down, two part (motherboard and case), built-for-everyone kind. Well, they're more like Macs (equally dumbed down, as few parts as possible, one size fits all). PCs are like HIV--no two copies are exactly alike--they differentiate more with age (different people repaired them swaping failed parts with non-OEM parts).

Actually, consoles have more in common with a CRT monitor than a PC tower. The power supply is usually internal, there's a few large mainboards, and something big (tube or optical drive) to get in your way. They are very similar in design. :laugh:
