The PlayStation Portal is described as a “remote player,” but it’s difficult to understand what that might mean. Here’s a comprehensive guide.
PlayStation
The first console to be released by Sony Computer Entertainment, the PlayStation (also known as the PSX or the PS1/PSOne), is a member of the fifth generation of video game consoles. The PlayStation was the first console to properly utilize high-quality CD-ROM content, with an entire library switching from classic cartridge-based games. The console marked the beginning and/or high point of many significant franchises such as Metal Gear Solid, Crash Bandicoot, Tomb Raider, and Final Fantasy VII. The PlayStation was redesigned in 2000 to release a budget-friendly model, the PS One.
