lumonyPeople who call the PS1 'PSX' make me want to kill kittens
vegetvsI'm in the complete opposite side of this spectrum. I just feel apathy towards people who call the PSX "PS1", even though I am not sure if they're talking about the real PS One or just being ignorant.
The real PS was called the… PS
Where did this 1 and X shit come from?
Well, it came from... Sony, their creators!
PSX was the codename for the original model. It was spread even before it was launched. PS One was the PlayStation "Slim".
And the real PS was the one that had the parallel diagnostic port on the back, what’s ya point?
That's precisely the PSX.

No shit. When it came out, it was most commonly abbreviated simply as PS.
Guess you weren’t around when the system and the games came out.
No and nope. Guess you weren't around when it came out.
I’m 42 years old and wrote DOS drivers for mice, joysticks, graphics and audio cards for hardware back in the day.
Oh yeah, check my comment history, I literally just dropped a modded port of Tomb Raider 1 for Debian Linux.
I’m old enough to have repaired three different original PlayStations in one night.
Riddle me this… How many screws hold together the optical assembly on an original PlayStation?
This smacks of cringe insecurity
ElectricMachmanAs someone who was around when it was current, yes, everyone called it PSX.
