PS1 didn't catch on until the PS2. Before then everyone went with PSX whether you want to admit it or not.

Honest question. Where did PSX come from?
I always called it ps1 due to Mandela effect, as I was around for the snes and the ps2 didn’t exist yet.

I like PS1 more because I called it like that back in the day, but I admit PSX is a correct name
>>
only nerds and gaming mags called it the psx.
every normal person you interacted with just called it the playstation until 2 came around, then it was the ps1
>>
>>729691593
Messy and incomplete and some are just flat out wrong, Threads of Fate is not an RPG. At best it's novel for how the board perceived the PS1 20 years ago. Like why TR3 over the 1st or 2nd? Time Crisis in the same genre as Panzer Bandit? Musashi could reasonably trade places with Threads of Fate.
>>
>>729687912
The only reason why people say PSX is because of how easy it is to emulate it. As in, it's based on ePSXe. This, however, has been memoryholed.
>>
This is a retarded topic to get anal about.
>>
>>729696748
PSX was the most common way to type it, since you saved 8 characters. It was easy to fit on magazine covers, and it shortened your time typing on a forum or Usenet. You're just a faggot who was born in the past 20 years.
>>
People called it the PSX back then because it was just the "Playstation" and nobody knew if there was going to be a 2 yet. Later Sony made it clear that there was going to be a PS2 and also released a smaller, updated "PS One" which caused PS1 to enter general usage.
>>
>>729697489
PS2 was rumored as far back as 1996, they even knew it was going to be DVDROM based.
>>
>but that's how we typed it on usenet!!
lol what a nerd
>>
>>729691593
>the first metroidvania
>a platformer
I guess if you count no fall damage and no bottomless pits as platforming, but the only risk is a few seconds of time, unlike the older castlevanias where you risked having to start the entire game from the beginning.
>>
>>729691593
No, not enough focus and many of those games have better ways to play them. Plus it's missing Warzone 2100
>>
People kept saying PSX even after it stopped being the marketed name because the vowel sounds in PS are really weak and saying two unstressed syllables sounds retarded to native speakers. In American English, the short E in X's pronunciation is a natural stress point.
ESL will understand intellectually, but they'll never get it empathetically.

No.
PC also sounds retarded in English but since the alternatice was PCC which sounds even dumber it reduced down to PC.
But DVD is probably the dumbest acronym to say out loud.
This is also why things like LASER end up the word La'ser. Cause doing your ABCs is counter to how the language is spoken.

That is the difference chief you cracked the code.

They wrote PSX

PS strikes me as an awkward potentially easy to confuse abreviation. PSX ends on a strong consonant and is never going to be confused for anything else.
