An auction is currently up on eBay for a Sony PS3 console which is being sold to users as being two times faster than the original PS3 console.

The PS3 being sold is yellow in color and comes with a 200GB 7200RPM hard drive packed into it under its bright yellow hood.

What is wrong with you? Seriously? You can dislike consoles all you like but its like a personal offense to you everytime you see something pro sony. You have a PS3 then you should know its fine. I wont list games that are out or coming out cause its pointless. I will list my 360 games though. Gears, Halo 3, Bioshock, Carcasonne(XBL game. only one I like too. and Castlevania doesn't count as it is on PSN too) Soooo IMHO for me PS3 has more games. I own 8 atm(Not including PSN of which I have 7). All exclusive too... So seriously... Whats your issue? Did you have stock in something Sony and it bombed? Did your dog get killed by a Sony Yakuza agent? You ask about UT3 excitedly then Knock sony every chance you get....

why bother reasoning with someone who has got only one bubble?? this goes for both sony and xbox fanboys.

time and time again this forum shows that people with only one bubble can not be reasoned with reason alone.. strong medication or a knock on the head with a suitably blunt instrument will be more effective.

btw: anyone who pays 2k for this ps3 has more money than sense

2.3 - It's not a new SKU from Sony

It's actually a custom painted PS3 from ColorWare. You just now disqualified yourself. Congratulations for being an ignorant and poor d!ckhead.

6 - Hmmmm...

How much you want to bet they are saying it's 2x's faster because of the 7200RPM Hard drive, which is 5400RPM stock.

Clever... but pretty shady in the same sense.

that this ps3 makes the 4th dimension a reality AND that it has wheels?

Is it just me or does the ps3 look simply awesome in any colour? It looks great in white, black, yellow but my favourite is that deep scarlet red

this makes me want to criticize sony/ms...they should make their consoles available in different colors...im so jealous of a colored ps3 (or 360 for that matter) but for real we should be able to choose our consoles colors (my PS1 didn't go with my black entertainment set, neither the 360, that is why i want a elite really bad)
