Man, I just got my PS3 last night and I set it up on my TV. When I stepped away from it and looked at I couldn't believe it. It has got to be one of the ugliest pieces of consumer electronics I have ever seen. The chrome around the disc slot looks tacky and the funny shape makes it look out of place with everything else in the room. Luckly none of that crap matters! It makes really pretty pictures and plays all of my movies. It took a little bit of convincing for my wife to let me keep it out in the open, though. Life is good. I'm happy I got my PS3.

The PS3 is highly reflective... ... you may have seen your reflection. There are much uglier consoles than PS3. Look at N64 and 3DO... heck... even the first Xbox. Welcome to the Playstation family BTW.

I agree it looks pretty bad led down, but upright it looks amazing (oh and it doesn't get hot upright, so I stand it up before I turn it on, and lay it down after I turn it off).

Well, I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I think it's the best looking console ever. It looks sleek and modern as opposed to most consoles which look like uninspired hunks of plastic. To each his own:D

The N64 looked cool! 3DO and Xbox 1 looked like VCRs or something...

Sitting horizontal it looks akward.  But I think it was meant to be place vertical more then anything.  The slot loading drive makes it much easily to insert games then the ps2 in that position.  In the vertical position I think the system looks beautiful and perfectly matches the piano black finish of my center channel speaker and the piano black frame of my Sony LCD tv.

I personally think it's the highlight of my entertainment system. I love the way it looks.  It makes all my other electronics gear and console systems look like they were designed in the 70's.

Y'know I don't think it's been an issue until this generation of game consoles that looks actually came into play. Or maybe I just never noticed before. *shrug*

Our Elite definitely gets more attention for the time being. And the Wii is the only console we can put vertically in our entertainment center. (It's in between the PS3 and Elite)

The PS3 is the only one with the nickname of "Shiny Speed Bump" though.

Oh my god I almost fell out of my seat reading that. But yeah, the PS3 is one sexy beast. (No, not Ben Kingsley. Good movie though.) I have no complaints and I wouldn't want it without the chrome. (I mean, I'd probably still buy it but then I'd think it looked kinda plain.)

Too be honest, aesthetics wise, I think it's the ugliest of the current gen consoles. But doesn't really matter when you should be looking @ the TV most of the time anyways.

Playstation 3 is the most original of all the next-generation consoles...

XBOX360 is a copy of a DELL Optiplex....

Nope, this system looks great in my entertainment system. I stand it up and have at an angle so that the front shows. Couldn't be happier. All it needs now is OS 2.0

I agree if you 100%. It makes my DVD player looks like a piece of rock with LEDs on the front. And when I put in upright position, it really makes me feel good, just to look and read PLAYSTATION 3...
