IBM sure made naming pretty confusing aren't they?

Ps/2 ports predated the PlayStation 2 by years. Sony made naming confusing in this case.

How can ports of a game predate the platform itself? That makes zero sense.

Not really? I mean it was a whole thing. OS/2, PS/2, I think maybe some PC/2? I can't remember. Anyway it was all branded together.

missed opportunity for the mainframes to be "system/2" and not "system/360"
