If you had a PS3 you could get it for $10 :D
Too bad the PS3 costs about $300 :(

It's coming in white soon enough, and it looks sexy. Too bad I have the better 60 GB model.

Some people already have white copies of the PS3, through people that work at Sony, and yes, they're sexy. I have the 250GB model and a 60GB Xbox 360.

I have all the older consoles as well, like Gamecube, PS2, PS1, SNES, 64, etc. Couldn't bring myself to get rid of them.
 
Ah, I have a Wii as well, but I never play it. I find it so dull and boring.

The only reason I would buy a Wii is for the backwards compatability and the games they're rereleasing. Seriously, the console wouldn't be worth it if it didn't have that imo.
 
I didn't even know it was backwards compatible until a few months ago. Only games I really liked on the Wii were SSBB and Wii Sports.
 
I'd probably keep my Wii if it played SSBB. I could've sent it in for repairs, but I couldn't be bothered. Hopefully it's a different story with my PSP (b'-')b

I still have Pokemon Coliseum despite not having a Wii or Gamecube to play it on :/
 
Wii games are mostly crappy party games or lame gimmicks.

There are few proper games on the Wii, although the big-name ones you can (almost) be sure to trust are good.

That game is so much fun. Reminds me of the days when I was really, really young. Same with XD. Good times.

That's exactly why the Mother series wasn't popular in America, but it's probably also because an American version was never released for the GBA(I got a fan translation though, so yeah :D) >>

Speaking of, it's actually pretty boring. I'll get back to it once I finish FFIV Advance.

I LOVED THAT GAME. I actually bought Battle Revolution(biggest waste of $50 ever imo) because I thought it was another coliseum game. How mistaken I was ;__;
 
The PS3 is coming in white?! Why am I always the one that buys stuff and doesn't wait till later till it comes out in a different colour... ¬_¬'.

Well there are companies that recolor systems for you, but they're everything but cheap.
Colorware does that kind of stuff, but apparently it costs $295 just to get the new 360 slim recolored. It looks sexy as hell in white though.

I'm gonna try to get a PS3 controller with a 360 button scheme soon. Afterglow seems like the best controller so far, since it comes for only $25 on Amazon new.
And it comes in sexy blue, hot red, and awesome green.
 
Why should they pay extra just to get it recoloured though. I mean - it's not expensive just to paint-spray something is it? So what's their excuse to just charge you a lot for it? :/

Eh? They sell PS3 Controller's like that these days? Well, not that I like the 360 controls or anything... I'll just wait till my PS3 controller breaks before I decide to buy one of them as well. And I'd probably get mines in blue <3

Well you may get it inside the disc drive or the USB. It's pretty hard doing it with spray painting since it will look choppy and unprofessional.

I'd honestly like it if the PS3 controller was more like the 360. The asymmetry doesn't matter that much, but I really prefer the concave analog sticks and the triggers, they just feel much more ergonomically correct. I still prefer the shoulder buttons on the PS3 because they are mushy instead of clicky, and the main buttons don't feel as loose. Oh, and the D-Pad isn't absolute garbage on the PS3 and it doesn't have a huge battery pack.

Power A and Rocket Fish also made similar controllers by the way(about $50 I think), but Afterglow just looks the best to me.
 
...And they wouldn't? :p

I see. Well, I wouldn't know much about controller's... but to me, I just like the feel of the 360's controller.

Never really heard of Afterglow. Do they have any good reviews on their products?

Col. was great actually. It had more of a plot and I actually had some hard times there, unlike the main series.

And I won't change my mind that PC > All. Sorry for butting in but I could never get into the control pad.. I have a PSP and a DS, I used the PSP as a PC controller a few times, wasn't that bad but I still preferred the keyboard since I move my fingers pretty quickly. That and I dislike the analog stick.

They could, but they can probably get it done with less trouble.

I do too, but I don't mind the PS3 controller either. The D-Pad just ruins it completely, especially in games like Gears where you actually have to use the D-Pad more than most 360 games.

The Afterglow controllers got only 3 stars on Amazon, but they seem sturdy enough. To be honest, I've only known about Afterglow for about 2 days now XDD;

Coliseum was never really that hard for me, although it got annoying when I tried to get a male miltank and no one knew that it was female only. 2 hours of soft reset wasted. :(
 
A white PS3!? reminds me of the Sega dreamcast. hur hur.

On a more serious level, I think the PS3 looks sexier in black, in fact any console/computer looks better in black. And as to the discussion of controllers, I wouldn't bother changing the controllers to another brand just so they will feel like the 360 or any other console, just kinda ruins the experience.
