How about simply "The Station?" Not creative, but simple and recognizable enough.

Forget simple, if PS is going to continue being an "all-in-one" machine (instead of a plastic box that only plays games), it should have and "all-in-one" name:

Technically "The Station" would cover all of those things. Just because something has a feature doesn\'t mean that it\'s required for it to be in it\'s name; no past console has said directly that it\'s a "Game Machine" in it\'s name or anything.

Actually, a couple have somehting like "Computer Entertainment System."  But enough arguing over what the name shall be.  The title of the thread os "What would you name the PS3."  Sorry that I started debating.  But it makes you think about how fun it would be if SONY had a big campaign and let us vote on comsumer-submitted names.  Then PS3 would be "The games system you named, and would add a personal attachment to the machine, giving them more of a reason to buy it.  (Oh gawd, I\'ve slipped into business mode!)

PS3 is whats its probably going to be. the "Playstation" name is so popular, it would be a bad buisness move on sony\'s part IMO. Who knows though, Sega and Nintendo have/had different names for thier console, and they did fine for the most part. :alien:
