"The name's Station, PlayStation."

Yeah, the first Sony machine had an original name. The PlayStation. I think that Sony were too lazy to think up a different name for their second console so they just called it the PlayStation2. I think they should of been much original. Look at Nintendo. At present they have the N64, and their next 128-bit console will be called GameCube.

Sega released the Saturn, then the Dreamcast. Both original names.

What I ask you now is what do you think the future consoles will be called?

Sony: ?
Nintendo: ?
Microsoft: ?
Sega (If they do make another console): ?

For Sony’s next machine, please don’t say PlayStation3! :-)

hmm... u know before the PS2 was announced as the official name, some mags began to call the console the Playstation 2, while waiting for the official line. Sony then held a press conference DEMANDING that mags call the next console the NGPS (Next Generation PlayStation). They said they had made a name (TBA) that incorperatted the original Playstation, and somethiong about the future of the console. Hence they called it.... Playststion 2. Idiots got paid to think this one up (they claim it took 3 months, but came naturally in the end! Of course it came *@*/-! naturally!)
