Sony Computer Entertainment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Sony's first foray into the video game market, the PlayStation (formerly PSX, currently called PS one), was initially set to be an add-on for Nintendo's Super Nintendo Entertainment System and Super Famicom video game consoles as an answer to Sega's Sega CD.

The PSX has extensive media connectivity with the PSP. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Sony_Computer_Entertainment   (696 words)

The MagicBox Forums - PSX2... picture this! Sony already had a DVR that was 10 times better than the PSX, even at those specs they had announced before hand which they had pulled out. The PSX on the other hand has a good blend of these technologies and for the high price of 941 dollars on initial shipment, it will be like half that when its released abroad. Sony didn't delay the release of the PSX, even though that pretty much 1/2 the features had to be taken out at launch and sony already had a DVR better than the PSX on the market for 1/4 the cost. www.the-magicbox.com /forums/printthread.php?t=9234   (1503 words)

The MagicBox Forums - PSX Officially Dead When the PSX came out, there was already a DVR made by sony on the market that had twice the space and 3 times the capibility for half the price. Yeah, the PSX was just so lame of an idea...So was HDD....Is Sony going to do the same nonsensical things during the PS3 era...It will stand to reason they will do something dumb.... So perhaps it would be accurate to state that the series 5500 and 7500 PSX models have finished their production runs, and those in Japan who want one of these models would do best to head to retail and pick one up. www.the-magicbox.com /forums/printthread.php?t=11605   (816 words)

My Way - Computers and technology A version with a 160-gigabyte HDD will sell for 79,800 yen ($719) and be able to record up to 204 hours of television, the company said.

The company's games division has developed cutting-edge semiconductors for the PS2 and the original PlayStation, but it is the upcoming PlayStation machine that has people buzzing about the integration of electronics and games. news.myway.com /tech/article/id/358983|technology|10-06-2003::22:47|reuters.html   (278 words)

Last check: 2007-10-12) While Sony suggests that the PSX controller may not be compatible with the Playstion One or Playstation 2, we tested using the PSX controller on a PS2 console and vice-versa and it worked fine with Guitar Freaks 4 and Winning Eleven 6. In order to release the PSX before the end of year Sony have dropped a number of features from the console which were originally announce.

Sony's PSX-Citement - SatelliteGuys.US What I meant to say was after having to spend that kind of money on the PSX, consumers will expect to not have to pay any additional money for its functionality, because they will have thought they paid for the functionality that the PSX would offer. To continue to expect DVR's to be free is misguided. The aussie and the dish salesman can say all they want about no DVR fees, but it won't be up to them in the future. www.satelliteguys.us /showthread.php?p=5272   (811 words)

MY ROMs.com : PSX Roms   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12) PSX can refer to these following items: The official name for a PlayStation 2-based DVR released in Japan Unofficial name for the original PlayStation console This usage derives from the fact that Sony originally developed the PlayStation as a CD-ROM and SNES hybrid unit. When the project was halted by Nintendo, Sony decided to redesign the PlayStation as a stand alone console, which was known internally as the PlayStation Experimental. The original PlayStation was abbreviated in Japan to "PS" and was often abbreviated as "PSX" by American gamers, as this was Sony's internal code name for the system while it was under development. www.myroms.com /playstation/psx_roms.htm   (815 words)

New PlayStation, Xbox may add DVR technology - PS2 Scene Forums Despite lagging sales, DVR would be a hot consumer technology in the future, said speakers on a panel devoted to investigating future consumer electronics products and technology trends. The PSX already has it and MS have already announced their Media Centre addon with DVR technology later this year...... and considering the increased cost of the psx already for sale, if sony did make a ps3 with a tivo like functionality, they would be stupid to include it in every console and not release a version without it. www.ps2-scene.org /forums/showthread.php?t=19310   (617 words)

Sony to Unveil All-In-One PSX Game Device - SatelliteGuys.US The PSX, which packs a TV tuner, DVD recorder, hard-disk drive, and the PlayStation 2 (news - web sites) game player into a single white box, will be unveiled at the CEATEC Japan 2003 industry show in Makuhari, near Tokyo, on Tuesday, Sony said in a statement. Sony plans to launch the machine in Japan before the end of this year, and in Europe and the United States early next year, but a spokesman for Sony said on Friday the exact launch timetable and pricing were yet to be decided. It probably is a DVR if it has a hard drive and the first post says pricing has not yet been determined. www.satelliteguys.us /showthread.php?p=5018   (458 words)

GameCritics.com Forums - US PSX Delayed The report suggests that by late 2006 - generally considered to be the earliest possible launch window for the PS3 - these features will cost roughly $250 to include in a system, leading to a $500 price tag for the next generation console. A late 2006 at the earliest release would make a US PSX release more logical, although the PS2 and Tivo combo I mentioned would be preferred... Although Sony's marketing blitz for the PSX prior to Christmas was massive, it was a traditional Sony effort in that it focused primarily on brand appeal and contained little information - an approach which doesn't work for devices such as the PSX, claim retailers. www.gamecritics.com /forums/printthread.php?t=8079   (1141 words)

Sony sets date for PSX | CNET News.com The PSX will combine a PS2 game machine with a digital video recorder and and a DVD player/recorder.

Sony halts the PSX again, this time for good? - Engadget We're not going to say the PSX was doomed from the start, because not only was it a wonderful idea to combine a DVR (with a DVD burner) and the PlayStation 2, but it came as part of a gallant effort on Sony's part in an apparent (rare) collaboration of divisions. A lot of people lamented the day when Sony pulled out of the market, and a lot of others thought the PSX would be a TiVo when it was released here (at the time, their deal with TiVo was still in effect). I wanted the PSX but it wasn't anywhere near the same self as the regular HD/DVD burner machines and dragging the wife down to another floor would have meant that I would have to live with a regular DVD home theater setup. engadget.com /2005/02/25/sony-halts-the-psx-again-this-time-for-good   (1457 words)

Gamasutra   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12) Today's round-up includes the possibly final demise of the PSX console/DVR hybrid, and some interesting Japanese-imported acquisitions for the U.S. division of publisher Atlus. The initial models had significant issues revolving around bugs and missing features, which Sony never entirely fixed with its series of firmware upgrades. The often cited reasons for the device's poor performance have to do with compatibility issues between the Sony Computer Entertainment and Sony Electronics divisions, who were first-time partners in the development and production of the PSX, but no formal reason for the ceasing of production was announced. www.gamasutra.com /php-bin/news_index_plain.php?story=5007   (159 words)

Print - Sony Launches PSX in Japan Although Sony had promised that the original PlayStation 2, with its DVD playback capabilities and external expansion, would be a hit crossover product, the popular system has seen the most traction in the traditional video game market, where it has dominated rivals such as the Microsoft Xbox and Nintendo's GameCube. With the release of the PSX, however, Sony is finally moving the PlayStation 2 into new functional areas that will attract a much wider range of users. In addition, the PSX's DVD recording functionality lets users burn their recorded TV shows and movies to disk. www.connectedhomemag.com /Articles/Print.cfm?ArticleID=41182&Path=HomeTheater   (279 words)
