Hey everybody. Before you all jump to conclusions (lol Office Space), I'm not a fanboy and I'm not making any sort of attack on SONY or the PS3. They're finally dropping the price to 400, which is great! However, am I going to get one? Hell no. Sure, some of the games coming out look promising, and there's always a few series that will make their return (God of War), but the one thing that stops me from buying one?

Omfg, the PS3 is easily the ugliest looking console out there. It's huge, it's plain, and isn't good at fitting in cubbies or entertainment centers at all.

Anyone else agree? Also, do you think SONY is going to ever redisign this thing to actually look good?

Looks great to me, hence why I'm picking up the $400 beauty if it comes out in NA. Throwing out my old vcr in my entertainment system and moving the lovely PS3 to takes its place.

No, the PS3 is the best looking console, well, ever!

It's smooth, black and curvy, it demands the attention it deserves, and it looks like it's got some serious power inside it, which it does!

So no, the PS3 is not ugly at all, that's just you.

If you want a Tissues box : Get Wii
If you want a toaster : Get Xbox360
If you want a SpaceShip : Get the PS3 !!!!!

Come on guys go easy on the topic creator! To the TC, when did you lose the sense of sight?

I'm just joking, but I disagree, the PS3 is easily the best looking console IMO

Who cares about what it looks like? You don't sit there staring at the console, thinking 'hmm, this isn't much fun to look at.' You play it, you don't look at it! The PS1 was square and grey, and still it was a great console. The PS2 was square and black, and still sold 120 million consoles. The PS3 has mixed it up with some curves, and now it's not worth buying? Nice.

The PS3 looks better than any VCR/DVD player I have ever seen. I just wish I could sit it next to the Bravia LCD HDTV that it's connected to, instead it's sitting in the entertainment cabinet almost out of site.

I think the PS3 is the best looking console. I hate how the 360 feels like cheap plastic and sometimes you have to press the power button twice to turn it on. But I don't know if it's just me but I wish my PS3 was all black like the 20gb version

Omfg, the PS3 is easily the ugliest looking console out there. It's huge, it's plain, and isn't good at fitting in cubbies or entertainment centers at all.

Anyone else agree? Also, do you think SONY is going to ever redisign this thing to actually look good?

PS3 ugly? I think you're just seeing your own reflection in the glossy finish.

personally i think the PS3 is better looking. I have it in my entertainment center and it looks like it belongs there next to my other equipment where as the 360 looks awkward and out of place

I want smaller chips in it so that it uses less power and puts out less heat. Of coarse keeping the Emotion chip in it would have been good too. I really like the degisn of the ps3.

The PS3 is by far the most exotic-looking console ever made.

I want to play adult games and I want to have a system that runs reliably. There's only one system that fits that bill.

I don't need an aesthetically pleasing system. I look at the TV screen when I play, not at my console ..........
