I hope so, a Sony console that doesn't look like gooseberry fool would be a welcome change. That looks sexy as strawberry float.

I don't like it. It looks too much like a box, and wheres dat gloss

The original PS3 is classy as hell, the PS2 was far from ugly, and the PS1 was fairly cool back in the day so IDGI.

All hideous. The PS3 fatty looks like a strawberry floating George Foreman with a spiderman font. It was pretty much hated by everyone.

I don't care what the machine itself looks like as long as it's not completely hideous.
All I ask for is that they don't use flashing lights.

Bring back the capacitive buttons.

You have to remember that this forum is plagued with Xbots. So just smirk and nod when you see these silly claims.

Looks slick as strawberry float.

You know what, I want a PS4 that looks pretty much like my PS3 super slim. That way, the missus won't notice a damn thing when I buy one.

Don't know if they still do it, but their televisions used to do this. The Sony logo lit up on the bezel.

I used to have a Sony TV that did that. Luckily there was an option to turn it off.

FAO Sony nothing but a power indicator dot for this guy's console.

(You don't mind power indicators right?)

if the console ends up looking like that or similar then amazeballs in my opinion. I was going to buy one eventually anyway but if it looks like that then all the better.

I watched that video, it looks fake.

People who actually fall for this gooseberry fool

So ugly, yuck.

So you do care?

Opinions and all but my I couldn't disagree more. Each iteration of the PS3 is, quite frankly, hideous. When your latest hi-tech console looks like a sandwich grill you now something is up. The PS2 was perhaps one of the ugliest pieces of hardware in terms of console designs. They got it right with the PS1 though, especially the slim or whatever it was called.

PS3 was just too big and shiny and the Slim model looks nicer imo. PS2 is certainly better and the PS2 Slim is just lovely. PSOne is the nicest PlayStation Console Design.

I just don't want them to go overboard with the pointless design flourishes and just have something inoffensive that can sit unnoticed under my telly.
The 360s is a good example as it's pretty much just a black box which doesn't scream games console.

Yes it does! The thing isn't shaped so nicely and is shiny as strawberry float.

The Wii is the only understated design, mind you once the blue light comes on that's quite 'consoley' anyway!

Yeah I love the look of the PS3 Slim, probably my favourite looking home console ever. "Hideous"
