Playstation

Hi,

Do you say "play the playstation" or "play with/on"?
Eg How often do you _____ the playstation?

Thank you for your help

Broadly speaking, repetition is good to avoid. I'd say eg How often do you use your Playstation ?

I see. So you don't use "play" with Playstation.

How would you say the following?
- I spent all weekend ____ my playstation.

"on" maybe?

Thank you

Yes, on.

Apart from the repetition of '. . . play wih my Playstation . . '., the verb 'play' would usually be avoided in this context by older teens and adults, Apart from the sports area, 'play' is a word for what children do.

No 'maybe' about it. I'd definitely say 'on'.
