The PS1 was originally developed under the code name PSX, the name is commonly associated with it, and has been since before the PS2 or the PSX digital recorder were a twinkle in Sony’s eye. There’s a reason why PlayStation magazines at the time used the PSX moniker in their name. The reason why the later machine adopted the name was to echo the MSX naming convention, but all it caused was confusion over the years, similar to Xbox 1 and Xbox One. For all intents and purposes the PSX is a digital recorder with an integrated PS2, so taking about it like it’s its own thing is silly.
Context my friend, context is everything.
There is MUCH more to the PSX then just a PS2. It has it's own firmware, encryption, etc. It's not "a digital recorder with an integrated PS2", that's just so wrong on so many levels. Can it at least please be changed in the title?
which is false and should not be encouraged since it leads to confusion to everybody in the scene. At least the title should be corrected.
"for PSX" in the title. Only in the second paragraph you can see that it's not actually the PSX. Has nothing to do with the language you speak...
There you go, it's there on second paragraph and you noticed. Why so confused if you realized is there?
..Did you miss the 'For all intents and purposes' part of his post, or did you simply not understand it?
You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. The title is misleading because it refers to another console, that was my only criticism. Why so weirdly defensive?'MUCH more' - oooh it's got an early version of the xmb! AND it can't run certain games! Or use a multitap! Yeah, SOOO much more to the PSX...
It’s literally a PS2 and a DVR bashed together, running a different firmware. Even PS2Dev Wiki considers it a PS2 variant, and trust me, they’d know what it is. Nobody’s confused, everybody immediately understood that it’s a PS1 homebrew...Did you miss the 'For all intents and purposes' part of his post, or did you simply not understand it?
'MUCH more' - oooh it's got an early version of the xmb! AND it can't run certain games! Or use a multitap! Yeah, SOOO much more to the PSX...
Stop while you're ahead b/c you're starting to sound like a "Karen".
Then you didn't read good enough because I literally developed tools for the PSX firmware, they are nothing alike.
Not true as you can see. Especially in a homebrew & hacking forum this mistake should be corrected.
Stop while you're ahead b/c you're starting to sound like a "moderator bootlicker".
Do you even hear yourself? You're the literal definition of "delusion". I'm sure you must be fun at parties
It was called the PSX in magazines back in the day, this is not to be confused with the PSX DVR console.
The only person in the entire thread who seems to care is you. Your request has some merit in the sense that yes, the PS1 (also known as PSX) and the PSX (the unfortunately-named digital recorder) are two different products. Since you threw a giant tantrum, I’m going to ignore it. The PS1 was, is, and always will be, recognised as “PSX” - that was its code name, that’s what people call it colloquially and there is nothing wrong with that. Whenever someone uses the term, in 99.9% of cases they’re referring to the PS1, and that’s a fact. I see no benefit in policing people’s language - if anyone’s at fault for any resulting confusion, it’s Sony themselves for calling their PS2-based DVR the same way people (and they themselves internally) called a previous system. Many people have called the PS1 “PSX” since the 90’s, there’s no reason to start correcting them now, nearly 3 decades later.
I was just asking normally (my first post was neither rude nor aggressive) and got attacked by various members so I replied back and now I'm at fault? Including you, a moderator that should resolve conflicts nontheless.
As if Sega is considered a small business, lmao!
