I don't think MS and Sony want the headache of so many more SKU's that would create.  Think about it, the Wii has what, 1 model?  Different colors would be a different SKY, so they have what?  3 SKU's?  I think Sony and MS both had over 3 SKU's in the first year (with all the different HDD sizes, etc)

 

Besides, if you REALLY want to, just paint it, go look at some of the pics online of people's PS3's

some of the prices are bs, to paint my ps3 yellow cost me the price of a ps3. I like my ps3 but an extra 300 for a color change? Hells no lol, lemme see if I still have the link so you can see for yourself.

Not sure, the surface isn't a finished surface, but I would assume any type of airbrush paint would work, may need to scuff it a bit with a fine sandpaper though first... could probably find that info on the net

when i had just read the title i thought this was more colorful games. was kinda disappointed when i realized this was about the color of the console itself because i'd agree that there are far too many gray/brownish games on the HD twins! i found it hard to believe that the colorful enslaved actually uses the unreal engine because all the other games that use it look the same!

 


uncharted 1/2 was an very vibrant game but after that and i played infamous what an change 



Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong

Its really damn expensive to manufacture so many colors.

Especially WHITE


White is a combination of all colours combined. Naturally, it's more expensive than Red, Blue, Green, etc.

Black is cheapest since it's "colourless".

We arent talking about how a computer monitor produces light here.. we are talking about paint pigments.

You dont mix RGB to get white in this case..

my friend and i just had this convo, I would have gladly bought the white FF13 ps3 if it was sold in the states, to be honest I would love a crazy neon strobe ps3 now that would be cool 



I am no good at grammar =) 

DAMN IT! This EP is such a good idea
