PSX was a Sony digital video recorder with fully integrated PlayStation and PlayStation 2 video game consoles. Since it was designed to be a general-function audiovisual device, it was marketed by the main Sony Corporation and was released only in Japan on December 13, 2003. It was the first Sony product to utilize the XrossMediaBar (XMB).

The system became widely criticized due to a very high price, and customer interest began decreasing.[1] As a result, the PSX was never released outside Japan.

The PSX is a fully functional digital video recorder with RF, S-Video and composite inputs. It is able to tune analog VHF and CATV. It comes with a remote control and can be also linked with a PlayStation Portable to transfer videos and music via USB ports.[2] It also features software for video, photo and audio editing.[3]

The PSX supports PlayStation and PlayStation 2 gaming using PlayStation 2-based hardware, with Emotion Engine, Graphics Synthesizer and the I/O processor. It supports online game compatibility using an internal broadband adapter. Games that utilize the PS2 HDD (for example Final Fantasy XI) are supported as well.[4]

The PSX doesn't include a controller. A special ceramic-white, USB DualShock 2 was released separately.[5] However, original DualShocks are fully supported by two joystick ports in the back side and memory cards are also supported via port in the front side.[6]

The PSX is also known for its introduction of Sony's XMB graphical user interface, used later on PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 3, 2008 BRAVIA model TVs and other Sony devices.

  • its just a DVR that can play ps2 games

  • @29079816944723 actually, it's a lot more then just a DVR/PS2 it was the first device to introduce the XMB (Xross Media Bar) you could store massive amounts of media Music,Videos and Photos much like the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable. the only problem was it was so expensive it never got popular. Thus it was never released outside Japan.
