PlayStation Users Are Battling It Out After Sony Calling the ‘X’ Button the Cross and It’s Hilarious

In a hilarious bid for dominance in the PlayStation camp, PS players are taking to Twitter to tell Sony they are flat out wrong about the Cross feature. It all started yesterday when PlayStation UK took to Twitter to drop a bomb on what apparently surprised a huge portion of the PlayStation fanbase – the results? A comedic clashing of what the damn button should be called at the end of the day. 

Exhibit A, the tweet:

Triangle
Circle
Cross
Square

If Cross is called X (it’s not), then what are you calling Circle?🤔 https://t.co/dvQ19duemW

Now behold the various reactions given from such bold proclamations from people that just can’t handle the truth:

This is like when the guy who invented the gif insisting on everyone saying it in a weird way against public consensus

Embarrassing

Because this debate grinds my gears, I’ll finish it once and for all:

– Crosses have the same distance between each stick.
– Crosses form a square.

– Exes don’t have the same distance between each stick.
– Exes form a rectangle.

People who say cross instead of ex probably play inverted and have pineapple on pizza

In other words, they’re weirdos

This is our Cross to bear

Then PlayStation took things a step further with A+ meme usage:

OK the votes are in, these are now the new names of the buttons.

Seriously, the list of reactions spans thousands of comments, all of which warring with each other about what the button is called. And this is why I play PC primarily – no confusion, just pwnage. 

But in all fairness, it was a hilarious debate that is all in good fun. But where you do stand on the X vs. Cross debacle? Sticking to your guns, or does Cross make more sense? Hit us up over on Twitter @PrimaGames and tell us all about it and why you think Sony is right or why they’re dead wrong!
