>Teiyu Goto, a Sony engineer who had much freedom to design the original PlayStation as well as its controllers, actually explains that the PlayStations' iconic button shapes weren't just arbitrarily picked—they actually mean something.

> Other game companies at the time assigned alphabet letters or colors to the buttons. We wanted something simple to remember, which is why we went with icons or symbols, and I came up with the triangle-circle-X-square combination immediately afterward. I gave each symbol a meaning and a color. The triangle refers to viewpoint; I had it represent one's head or direction and made it green. Square refers to a piece of paper; I had it represent menus or documents and made it pink. The circle and X represent 'yes' or 'no' decision-making and I made them red and blue respectively. People thought those colors were mixed up, and I had to reinforce to management that that's what I wanted.

Given that the other 3 buttons are all shapes, it makes sense that X would be a 'cross' which is a shape, as opposed to 'ecks' which is a letter shaped like a cross.

How stupid do you have to be

that's the 2 button

Crosses are two lines that intersect each other at a 90° angle. "Ecks"es intersect at a 60°/120° angle.

It's obviously a cross. Anyone who thinks "ecks" needs to kill themselves so that they don't pollute the genepool.

Crosses that are rotated are X's. That is literally the only difference between a cross and an X.

nobody is autistic enough to pull out a protractor and check if it's a cross or an X

If I tilt my head to the side, does that magically make a cross an X? Just admit you're wrong and move on with your life.

X, as in extortion.

2 letters (X, O), 2 shapes (square, triangle).

I always called it 'hot-cross bun'. I have it on good authority that the emperor of Japan also calls it this, so it must be correct.

Why the hell is it called the Back button on Xbox? It never actually makes anything go back.

Name a single game where its referred to as the "Cross" button.

This is the correct way. Any other nomenclature is derived from plebs or underage people
