So, now that Sony is releasing a console called "PSX", are so-called games journalists going to stop referring to the PS1 as PSX?

For years they insisted on calling Sony's first console "PSX" (even Special Reserve did it) even though PSX was only the codename for it during development. Where exactly is the "X" in "PlayStation"? No-one called the N64 "Dolphin", so why call the PS1 PSX?

I'm glad Sony has stuck the boot in and made all these people look as stupid as they were by naming their newest creation PSX, and thus forcing these "professionals" to change their naming philosophy.
