PlayStation = PS
PlayStation 2 = PS2
PlayStation 3 = PS3
GameCube = GC
Original Xbox = Xbox
Xbox 360 = 360
Battlefield 1942 = BF1942

X-B-1 is how I'd say it.

I know, it's not really an abbreviation if it takes the same number of syllables to say it as opposed to the real thing.

X-B-1
X-Box-1

I tell you, the one thing I was most impressed about was the new Kinect. That fucker's got enough resolution that it should be able to basically digitize anything you put in front of it.

My fiancée was certain she heard Shatner's voice in the blackout sequence before Kirk wakes up. Anybody notice it? I didn't.
