video game console

A machine used to emulate reality or to escape reality all together. It is the saving grace of the post-modern childhoods, and some adult-hoods.

The console/gaming war

A war in which the fan boys of both PlayStation and X-box argue about which is better.PC fan boys stand by and claim to be "the glorious PC master race"often stating(just as much as console fan boys)that they're are best,and are to up themselves to realize they're just as bad.All the while Nintendo stays in the background gaming and doing exactly what the PC fan boys claim to be doing,and for that they're discriminated against.Oh and by the way no I am not a Nintendo fan boy.

The console/gaming war:
PlayStation BEST!
Xbox:NO I'M BEST!
PC:LOOK,I AM OBVIOUSLY THE BEST!

Toyota Prius is a gaming console

An expression that refers to the fact that the production years of 1st gen Toyota Prius (2001-2003) coincide with PS1, whilst that of 2nd gen Toyota Prius (2003-2009) with that of PS2, and that of 3rd gen Toyota Prius (2009-2015) with that of PS3. Same with 4th gen Toyota Prius (2016-2022) whose production years coincide with PS4, whilst that of 5th gen Toyota Prius (2023~present) whose production years also coincide with PS5. Not to mention that the nameplate "Prius" starts with "P" and ends with "S", where both letters make the acronym for "PlayStation". Contrast this with Mitsubishi L300 pickup and Mercedes-Benz G-Class which both have been manufactured since 1979 until present in nearly unchanged form (with few to no facelifts), hence not coinciding with the pace of technological advancement of any gaming console.

Some people joke that the Toyota Prius is a gaming console because its generations match up perfectly with PlayStation generations from PS1 through PS5, showcasing how both have evolved with technology while other vehicles like the Mitsubishi L300 pickup or Mercedes-Benz G-Class stick to their unchanged classic roots.
