	Portable Sound Format - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Portable Sound Format (PSF) file is a sound data file (akin to NSF from the Nintendo Entertainment System, and other console related sound formats) ripped directly from video games from a variety of game consoles.
		The PSF format was created by Neill Corlett in 2003, who also wrote the Winamp plugin Highly Experimental that plays PSF1 and PSF2 files.
		PSF initially stood only for "PlayStation Sound Format", but with the addition of the PSF2, SSF (Sega Saturn Sound Format), DSF (Dreamcast Sound Format), USF (Nintendo Ultra 64 Sound Format), QSF (Capcom Q-Sound Format), and GSF (Game Boy Advance Sound Format) subformats, the more generic backronym "Portable Sound Format" was developed.

		The PlayStation, which celebrates its 10th anniversary on September 9, 2005, launched in Japan on December 3, 1994, and in the US nearly a year later.
		Since Todd witnessed the entire PlayStation era firsthand, we thought he would be the prime candidate to give us the straight dish on the conceptualizing, building, and life span of the PlayStation.

	Sound for Playstation2
		The VAG format was used in Playstation, but Sony has made some enhancements to the audio setup for PS2.
		The sound RAM is allocated between short sounds that are stored in RAM to be triggered as needed and buffers that are used for continuous sound that streams from disc during game play.
		Because sound for a PS2 game can involve hundreds or even thousands of dialog, effects and music elements, making the sounds and incorporating them into a game is a big job that requires a lot of teamwork.

		Just be sure to FTP transfer the sound file to your site as "binary" or "raw data," as any other way can corrupt it.
		Embedding a sound on a page means that you include the sound commands in your HTML document and use a plug-in to run it.

		The PlayStation was a nice stopgap in between the Super NES and N64 for me, because I got a chance to play what turned out to be two of my all-time favorite games, the Twisted Metal series and the original Need for Speed, quite a bit with my friends.
		Besides, the PlayStation was always like the unwanted stepchild in my video game family.
		Yes, the PlayStation did give me Twisted Metal 2, which is a game I'm sure will be forever an all-time favorite, and the Need For Speed series.

	Linux for PlayStation 2 Community: Linux for PlayStation 2 FAQs
		Japan: Linux for PlayStation 2 final release 1.0 was sold as a DVD set only in Japan, for users who had already purchased the hardware with the Beta kit release in 2001.
		There is also a project for hosting guides, tutorials and docs about programming the PlayStation 2 which you are welcome to use and contribute to.
		This is likely to remain the case in the future, as new software must be compiled for the PlayStation 2 processor before it can be used by Linux for PlayStation 2 users (one reason why the "Compiled For Your Convenience" project exists).

		While the Playstation 2 had a much beter presentation, giving consumers a really in-depth look at the software and hardware behind the name, Xbox chose instead to utilize the MTV venue for making its big announcement.
		Users will be able to use the Xbox 360 as a "home base" for their digital media files and can rip MP3s to and from portable media devices or Windows XP PCs, as well as rip music to the Xbox's detachable (and upgradable) 20GB hard drive.

	Sound And Vision Magazine - Sony PlayStation 3 Game Console
		Since Sony is the major driving force behind the development of the Blu-ray Disc format, it's no real surprise that Al found the PS3 to be a stellar movie player.
		And, at roughly $400 less than the other players currently on the market, the PS3 is a steal even if you never drop in a game and feel the thrill of teeing up with Tiger, wrestling with Shaq down in the paint, or emptying a clip into a Chimera.
		When it launched the original PlayStation back in September 1995, Sony was a nobody in the gaming market, going up against stalwarts Sega and Nintendo.

		Aside from a PlayStation 3 and a desire to further integrate it into your home theater setup, you'll need a PSX/PS2 Controller-to-USB adapter as well as an original Sony DVD remote for the PS2 (model SCPH-10172) with external IR receiver (model SCPH-10160).
		According to Sony, "The first priority is the PlayStation and nothing beyond that has been decided yet," so it makes sense that Toshiba will get a jump on them in the...
		Well even though today's DualShock and Xbox gamepads are widely praised for their comfort and control, PC gamers still seem to prefer the old keyboard and mouse combo for maximum versatility and fragability (is that even a word?).

	Wired News: Can Surround Sound Save MP3?
		First, it doesn't sound as good, byte-for-byte, as files purchased from iTunes Music Store (in the AAC format) or any of the Microsoft-compliant stores.
		Thomson, the entity that licenses the MP3 format to the world (it's not free or open source, as some suspect), tried to update MP3 for the first time in 2001, to the mp3Pro format.
		The songs sounded more expansive and present than their stereo counterparts, and I didn't hear any additions to the sound that marred the experience.

		These systems were also able to create some types of sounds with remarkable clarity, giving rise to a few tunes which many find enjoyable even in their original formats; the opening theme to the original Final Fantasy being a prime example.
		The two most common are for it to be sequenced together from stored samples, or from computer-generated tones; or for the music to be prerecorded in either a standard CD format, or some streaming audio format.
		This Red Book audio format format had a disadvantage in that it didn't allow the consoles of the time to access other data while playing music, and it took up a lot of space.

	Explaining Surround Sound
		While the sound is often better, studio and record labels have to decide if they want to sacrifice supplemental material on a DVD in place of better surround sound.
		DTS has produced many of their own musical titles on CD, DVD and DVD-Audio that feature their surround sound format: DTS CDs can be played on any CD player with a digital output or on a DVD player.
		While quad laid an egg commercially, mainly because of the limitations of vinyl as a surround sound medium, many tasty recordings were made in quad during the 1970s.
