Editorial Reviews :
If the original PlayStation was the video game console equivalent of the '60s-era Volkswagen Beetle--economic, reliable, loads of fun--the PS One could be considered the new Beetle--a hip restyling of those same qualities.
Make no mistake: the PS One has all of the same functionality as the original PlayStation workhorse, will work with all of the same peripherals and accessories, and will play the existing PlayStation game library, as well as audio CDs (also note that, like the original PlayStation, it's not compatible with the more advanced PlayStation 2). The difference here is that this new model is quite a bit smaller than its older brother, and quite a bit cuter, too.
The system is made up of a 32-bit, 34-MHz RISC processor with 16 Mbits of main memory, 8 Mbits of graphics memory, 24-channel stereo sound, double-speed CD-ROM drive, and one Dual Shock analog controller. That's not a lot of power, compared to a next-generation system like the Sega Dreamcast; but, when you factor in its very low price and the enormous library of games that are available (more than 1,000 that are spread across every genre imaginable), one can see easily why it's as good a deal as ever. If rumors of exciting future accessories for the PS One (a four-inch LCD screen attachment, to name one) are true, this little machine could become a great option for the on-the-go gamer.
Buyer Reviews :
This system is great. It is extremely small (about 7' by 5'). It is white. It comes with a special PSOne Dual Shock controller, one plug thingy with those three colored plugs on the other end (white, red and green? I don't know) that hooks into the back of your television, and another plug that goes into an electrical socket plugger-inner thingy. It plays PlayStation games. It doesn't have a reset button. It has extra CD options such as you can make your CD sound like it's in a Hall or a Church. Very neato. No, this system cannot play DVDs, and no this system cannot play PS2 games. It doesn't come with plug port thingys in the back so you can't use GameShark and such. In 2001, it will come out with a LCD screen. People say the graphics are better, there is no fan so there's overheating problems, and loading time is a lot faster then the original PSX. I wouldn't know any of these things because I never owned a PSX. I bought this because I wanted to play PlayStation games. I bought it in September, I think. I didn't want to wait for the PS2 to come out .... I am very pleased with this system. If you want to play PlayStation games and don't want to go through the hassle of buying a PS2, buy this. If you want to use GameShark and such, buy the PSX.
