{{Stub}} {{HardwareInfobox | image = PSX.jpg | type = Home Console | generation = Sixth | manufacturer = Sony Computer Entertainment | successor = PlayStation 3 | jp_rel = {{Release|2003|December|13|JP|PSX}} }} '''''PSX''''' was a Sony digital video recorder with fully-integrated [[PlayStation]] and [[PlayStation 2]] video game support. Since it was designed to be a general-function audio-visual device, it was marketed by the main Sony Corporation and was released only in [[Japan]] on [[December 13]], [[2003 in video gaming|2003]]. It was the first Sony product to utilize the [[XrossMediaBar]] (XMB), UI that would later be found in the [[PlayStation 3]], [[PlayStation Portable]], and 2008-model Sony Bravia TVs. The system was widely criticized due to its high price, and lack of customer interest led to poor sales. As a result, the ''PSX'' was never released outside Japan. ==Features== 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, comes with a remote control and can be also linked with a [[PlayStation Portable]] to transfer videos and music via USB. It also features software for video, photo and audio editing. The ''PSX'' supports [[PlayStation]] and [[PlayStation 2]] gaming using PlayStation 2-based hardware, with the PlayStation 2's hardware [[Emotion Engine]], Graphics Synthesizer, and I/O processor. It supported online game compatibility using an internal broadband adapter, and also supported the [[PlayStation 2 Hard Disk Drive]]; this meant out-of-the-box support for video games that utilized it (for example, ''[[Final Fantasy XI]]''). The ''PSX'' did not include a controller. To compensate, a special ceramic-white, [[DualShock 2 USB Controller]] was released at retail separately; however, original DualShock 2 Controllers are fully supported via two joystick ports in the back side, while memory cards are also supported via ports in the front side. ==Specifications== {{HardwareSpecs | media = [[DVD-ROM]], [[DVD-R]], [[DVD-RW]], [[DVD-RAM]], [[Audio CD]], [[PlayStation CD-ROM]], [[PlayStation 2 CD-ROM]], [[PlayStation 2 DVD-ROM]] | save = [[PlayStation Memory Card]], [[PlayStation 2 Hard Disk Drive]], [[PlayStation 2 Memory Card]] | network = [[PlayStation 2 Network Adapter]] | connectivity = [[PlayStation Portable]] | input = [[PlayStation Digital Controller]], [[DualShock Controller]], [[DualShock 2 Controller]], [[DualShock 2 USB Controller]] }} {{PlayStation}}
