The next console by Song has been let loose, but its not what we expected.

http://www.nzbzone.com/images/news/sonypsx2.jpg


The new PSX will go on sale in Japan on April 15 and will be available in two models. The DESR-7700 will come with a 250GB hard drive and a street price of around 80,000 yen ($767), and the DESR-5700 will come with a 160GB hard drive and will sell for around 60,000 yen ($575).

The PSX is a hybrid DVD-HDD recorder with PlayStation 2 gaming capabilities, and this will be its third model upgrade since its debut in December 2003.


The DESR-7700 and 5700 are nearly identical to the previously released PSX DESR-7500 and 5500 models, respectively, in terms of hardware, meaning that the DESR-7700 comes with a ghost reduction tuner and the 5700 does not. The DESR-7700 also comes with a connection for broadcast satellite (BS) and an i.Link (DV) connection.

Aside from having the features available in the older models, the new PSX will let owners download recorded video (such as TV programs) onto a Memory Stick Duo and transfer it to a PSP. The PSX will automatically convert video to the MPEG4 format the PSP uses when users download it to the Memory Stick Duo. A 512MB Memory Stick Duo can hold up to 110 minutes in 384kbps low-quality mode or up to 60 minutes in 768kbps high-quality mode. Notice that the Memory Stick Duo is different than Memory Stick, so an adapter is essential if you already own a Memory Stick.

Unfortunately, the encoding process when making PSP videos is a bit on the slow side. To compress videos at 768kbps, you'll, the system takes 5x the length of the clip. The 384kbps data rate is 4x the length of the clip. This means that an hour clip will take between five and four hours before you have a PSP version ready.

Sony actually recommends compressing while you sleep, as while the PSX is creating PSP movies, you can't access the menus, play DVDs, view the channel guide or surf channels. The system can record television programs in the background, though, so if you want to record something late at night during compression sessions, you'll still be able to. Also, you can group together up to fifteen recordings to be compressed simultaneously, and can store compressed programs on the PSX itself, although the compressed programs cannot be played back on the PSX.

Sony announced that it will release a new firmware patch for two PSX models on May 17. The update will give the PSX DESR-7500 and DESR-5500 the same capability as the latest PSX models. The patch can be either downloaded from the Internet or put on a CD and shipped to customers by Sony.

All i have to say is Bullshit. All i (and hopefully some other people, who arent into handhelds) just want is a system that can play games and dvd movies. Not something that will be over priced just because it comes with a hard and dvd recorder. If i want something similar to that I would just get a DVR (200$ ?price?), but i really dont need that. BTW PSX and PS3 are two different systems coming out, according to what i read a long time ago. Psx will have recording abilities, while the ps3 wont...

It seem'd like a major overhall to the PS2 with totally new technologie inside the machine. Its not PS3, maybe PS2.5, but this sucks cock to the people who brought the small PS2.

Im much happier with my slim ps2 then getting that $500-750 machine.

PS1 and PSOne has the same insides, PS2 and PSTwo has the same Insides, this is a totally new console just with the same graphics chip as PS2. Its a whole new console apart from the graphics chip and the media it reads.

The PSX is suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper old news.

I remember reading about this in January of last year. :lol: :lol:

Didn't this come out in Japan in December? :blink:

So what, they are releasing an updated PSX? :lol: :lol:

Everyone thought this was joke product back then (at least here). Now were supposed to be hyped up because of the much touted PSP bridge?

The title of this thread was just to gain attention. Well it did.....and now we know it's a flat out lie.

Now moving on. :rolleyes:

The PSX did/was suppose to come out about 1-2 years ago. Nobody seemed intrested, and it costed way to much. It was $1000 reatail when it came out. The reason there re-relreasing it is becuase of the PSP. They both use memory sticks, so you can transfer data between them. Thats there gimmick there going to play out. Plus i am not sure but they might make it like the GC, where you can use the psp as a controller. It is something cool, i might get it. Kind of a waste of money tho.

New Dvd recorder, New Hard drive, new USB drive support, New Memory Stick Duo Support, you can use the PSP as a controller, using a new video encoder (much like Xbox 1.0-1.4 used a certain encoder, which 1.5 onwards used a new encoder).

Too be honest if all your gonna do is attempt to insult me, or my thread with your badly typed, nearly unreadable reply at least take the Caps Lock off and remove your penis from your mouth.

I saw this on another forum that has PS3 in the title and yes it grabbed my attention, hence why i choose to keep it, got a problem with that?

True the PSX may be old news to some, but for me it was new news, also they have made some changes to its original specs that even the mighty Busyman wouldn't have known about.

If anyone else wants to have a go at being the new 14 year old AOL American wanker with Caps Locks on, thinks speelig leik diz iz wel kwl then fuck off to another thread as i've had enough of Gameworld being overrun by these tossers. Keep it ontopic or don't bother.

I always wanted to buy Xbox...but for some reason i had to stick with PS2 and now since my PS2 is not readin any disks(broken).....Now i have good chance of getting Xbox......I think Xbox is way better then any other console out there.....just my thought!

you have to ask. is it worth forking out for another (likely overpriced) console, just to write UMDs when you consider it'll be out of date in less than 2 years? :ermm:

Xbox 360 will be an iferior system to the ps3. Microsoft has stated, that they dont want to focus on graphic, but on the games being made. Witch dosent make sense, becuase the only reason people likes the Xbox is becuase its more powerful.

Look bitch. I stated my opinion without your shit name-calling. You may have IKE in your pocket but not me.

Your new news is barely new. No one really buys your hype and why should they.

A suped up PS2 is still a PS2. Further that with the fact that all these things in the PSX besides PSP support can be had for wayyyy less money.

DVD recorders ain't new and (and neither is the fucking PSX).

Your mom ain't buying you this shit anyway (if your country even gets it) so a STFU is in order regarding my mere opinions of your cherished thread.

you started by talking the thread down and saying it's super old news.

many people here may not have known about it before so thats one reason you shouldn't discredit this thread. although peerzy overreacted a bit i think he's allowed to defend this thread.

Like Dave said, alot of new people didnt know anything about a PSX, and even the people who did know hadn't seen this update, i didn't hype it up at all. I copied the text, title and linked to the source. In my opinion Sony are being cunts, big PS2's have stopped selling so they come out with a tiny one that everyone brought and now in a years time they want us to buy this again.

So is a machine gun still a pistol? There both guns, but ones just better.

i did not insult you or your thread, i disagreed with your assertion that adding a video recorder to a ps2 makes it a new console. how many games can psx play, which ps2 cannot? oh yeah, zero, 'cause it's not "a whole new console."
