I like the blue and the butter yellow! Hmmm.....black shows up too much lint so blue or yellow shoud be fine. White\'s for girlies. :D

Oh yeah! The blue PS2 needs that yellow Subaru swoosh decal! :D

After all....Subaru kicks ass. And yes, the STi can keep up with the Porsche 911 turbo...that is up to 155mph! But for a fraction of the cost. :p

you COULD always spray paint your PS2 :rolleyes:  Also, I think the white one is the best of the 5. I mean, it just looks godly and reminds me of the old PS1

"PlayStation 2 will soon be available in five different colors (white, red, yellow, blue and silver, all in glossy metallic finish) and limited quantities of 2000 each (666 units per color for Japan, US and Europe respectively) will be produced. The controller and the stand will also be available in the same color."

Hmmm, surely that number isn\'t completely coincidental; it is so plain to see that Sony must be harbouring Satan, or at least acting as a front for the man in red.

Why do they continue to display PS2s standing upright, when people report that the drive mechanism doesn\'t work as well that way?  (It hasn\'t happened to me, I\'m just remembering what people have posted here).  :o

Hmmmm...  I\'m perfectly happy with my stylish black PS2.

Red, yellow, blue, white, and silver?  :rolleyes: Seems kind of bland to me.  Silver is good - but with the already existing black PS2, plus white, you have the primary colors.  How creative is that?  I\'m not advocating pokemon yellow or grape-ape purple by any means, but how about the translucent blue of the Dualshock 1 and matching memory card?  Even the new red Dualshock for PSOne would be cool.  

(Please no pink PS2s, please please)

They are all cool, the red one just looks discolored.  BTW, I\'d like to see a clear one :D  or at least some skeletal colors.

I\'m surprised nobody has posted anything like, "Oh, now that it\'s for the PS2, it\'s cool to have tons of different colors. :rolleyes:"

Anyways, at the risk of being called a fanboy by any following posters, I have to say that those look very cool. :D

But what\'s with the regional allotments, per colour, of 666 units?

These are limited edition colors to celebrate Sony producing 20 million PS2s.  Is that what you were asking?

Post by: Zavijava on October 10, 2001, 06:28:55 PM
No, I am refering to the allotments of 666 PS2s, which is seemingly an arbitrary number.

N64? Macintosh? and now Sony!! Don;t sink to these level\'s Sony!

Black is the best color for a console, IMO. probably 75% of my consoles are black. I draw smiley faces in the dust.

You forgot to mention the NGC.  Anyways, if this will help Sony sell more console, I think they should continue to have multi-colored consoles and not stop after the 20,000 of each color are sold.  They just look so cool.

How the hell can we score one of these color PS2? won\'t there be a huge line up of collectors trying to get their hands on one? :(

The answer is simple, but it\'s not something you\'ll like.  All you need is a user name on Ebay and $1000. :)

Here\'s another look at\'em

Why are they so.....shiny? The black ones have a rougher texture.

I like the silver and the blue one, but I still think that the black ones the best.

Blue.

I love it.

There is a certain \'coldness\' to it.
