These three colors on PS3 are confusing as hell. I liked it when they released only one color for PS2. It was easy for me to choose the color. 3 colors? I\'m so confused which one I want. I know I don\'t want white since it will get dirty quickly. I like black and grey. Maybe I\'ll have to wait and see it in person...but I\'m planning on preordering. Damn you Sony :mad:
Offtopic: I remember when PS2 had those limited time colors. I thought the silver was sick looking.
-
I like the silver/gray look on ps3. maybe I may pick that color if I do buy one. But I gotta see other choices in person too before i decide.
-
It\'ll get dirty quickly? What do you, play with it in the lawn or something?
Get whatever color matches your other electronic stuff.

Grey for me ! On day One !;)
-
I d probably go for Black.But I like grey too.
-
Perhaps a poll would\'ve been a good idea. But anyway, I like the black.

-
I\'m gonna wait until they release the PSthree ;)
-
You can thank Nintendo for this. Anyone remember the different color N64 controllers? Then the different color N64s? Yeah...Damn copycats!
;)
Seriously tho\', black goes with anything!

Anyway, someone put up pics of the color choices? Too lazy to look for myself.

The transparant aqua blue and orange N64 hardware were riding Apple\'s style bandwagon of that time (https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fmacspeedzone.com%2Farchive%2F5.0%2Findividualmacines%2Fgifs%2Fimacb.jpg&hash=9ce805fefb3e792af7755ccd6df6e92ece3b6c10)
Sony\'s not the copy cat here....
I have seen NO evidence of actual color plans for PS3. Black, metallic silver or white are no colors imo.
For the lazy :

Can a mod add a poll?

Its not right.That thing is rectangle but its sexier than Miss World

So....shiny....:eek:

Black is a color and so is metallic.
-
Wrong.
Black, white and metallic are technically NO real colors.
Human color perception is based on light frequency/wavelength.
A surface that diffusely reflects all wavelengths equally is perceived as white, while a dull black surface absorbs all wavelengths and does not reflect (for mirror reflection this is different: a proper mirror also reflects all wavelengths equally, but is not perceived as white, while shiny black objects do reflect).
With thanks to wikipedia and arts academy, we get to know the colors and non colors. Black, white and metallic are no colors.
-
Black, white and metallic are no colors.
Then why bother giving them names? You shouldn\'t say..."I\'m wearing a white shirt today"...you should say..."I\'m wearing..." and then explain to someone in a paragraph like you just did.
-
Black is no color.
White is the existance of all colors.
-
Simple.Its too long and the person he will be talking to will punch him in the face for wasting his time when he could have explained all these with the word "white" and avoid the punch.I dont think anyone likes getting punched :D

Wow...no kidding. I learned that in 5th grade. I just think it\'s being analyzed a bit too much. Yes that is the scientific explanation of black and white, but this is a thread discussing which PS3 flavor you like the most, not a color wavelength and the human eye\'s perception thread.

Simple - its a bullshit way of trying to suck off Sony and saying..."they aren\'t offering different colors!". Not that it matters. Its no big deal. Just answer the damn question, which color will you get.

This topic took a huge left turn.
-
I\'ll probably get the white one, to match my xbox 360, and my revolution.
-
Black matches most of my stereo equipment, but not so shiny like that.... I\'ll get black or silver, but I\'ll have to see them before I choose.
-

You have something against shiny stuff?
-
I was merely pointing out that black wasn\'t a forgone choice for me because it doesn\'t quite match the rest of my stuff.
As such, I may go with silver, as it would stand out and look cool, but I\'ll have to see them first.
-
Yeah, things always look a bit different when you see them up close and personal.
