PLAYSTATION
When Sony released the PlayStation console they were beyond a newbie to the industry, having never previously developed a game, let alone a console system, but the PlayStation ended up a megahit that introduced 3D gaming to a mass audience and kick-started the video game CD-ROM revolution. Oddly, had it not been for a contract dispute, the “Play Station” -
PLAYSTATION NET YAROZE
So far it's Sony that has shown itself to recognise this by making significant gestures to win the affections of the indie community. The PlayStation 4 promises self-publishing, and indie games featured more prominently at Sony's E3 conference than ever before. Meanwhile the Vita has steamed ahead, largely relying on hot indie releases to rescue its reputation. It would seem that Sony is very serious indeed about indies.
It's not exactly a concern that's new to Sony, either. Over 15 years ago t -

in 1999,Sony released the PocketStation in Japan.Like the Dreamcast’s VMU,the PocketStation allows you play various minigames from compatible PS1 titles on its small black and white screen. And now that it’s available for the Vita,I decided to see what America missed out on.in reality,PocketStation for PlayStation Vita isnt as much its own standalone app as it is an addition to the PSone Classics launcher. Now instead of just being able to begin the game of your choice you have the,only in japan -

PS2(PLAYSTATION 2)
Launched almost thirteen years ago, Sony’s PlayStation 2 has made an enormous impact on gaming. It didn’t bring affordable, popular video games into the household like the NES did. It didn’t popularize 3D graphics like the N64 did. It didn’t blow everyone’s minds with some of the first 3D cutscenes like the PS1 did. It certainly didn’t provide some kind of coherent online console gaming infrastructure like Microsoft did with the Xbox. Yet, somehow, the PS2 practically revolutionized gaming as we -
PSX
Multimedia & gaming devices have been around the industry since the 1990s (3DO, Pioneer LaserActive and Philips CD-i). They are usually high in price, and chock full of features. In December of 2003, Sony decided to market its own feature rich multimedia device.
The Sony PSX is a high priced multimedia device designed to be the center of your home entertainment experience. Interesting enough, the Sony PSX is driven by the "heart and soul" of the PlayStation 2 console. -

PS ONE LCD
Back in 2001, it was very hard to imagine a system like the PlayStation
being played inside a car, but Sony made it happen, providing a good
alternative to Nintendo's portable systems. While the pragmatism of
using a PSone inside a car has been supplanted by the PSP's ability
to emulate PSone games almost perfectly, the PSone and its LCD screens
are still a nice combination of hardware and accessories.
