Poll: Why so ugly?

[Fallingwater]

Don't care about consoles, but even if I did I wouldn't care about their aesthetics, just as I don't care about the aesthetics of anything hitech. If it does its job it's good, otherwise it isn't. It looks like a shoebox? Who the hell cares?

 

[Sigel]

Yes. I think it is ugly. I had seen pictures of it yet. Schmeh, I still would not get one even if it was pretty. Personally I always thought the NES was one of the ugliest system, but I still loved it. It was/is the insides that count.

The Dreamcast was quite substantially uglier.

Indeed, Dreamcast gets my vote.

It looks odd. Not ugly.

It's like two different kind of buildings stuck together. The other one is sleek and the other, well just, akward.

I don't really mind it's new look; my only qualm is that it's starting to look a lot like the Wii (in terms of color, I mean.)

That's... not what it looks like.

LOL win.
Why do people think it looks like that white Wii-alike? Where did that come from?
But anyways I think it looks fine, certainly not ugly

the wii look a like was a photo made by a magazine (T3) when they were doin a prediction of the year 2008

I actually liked the Dreamcast look

Ehh, I don't think it looks that bad. I can think of better looking consoles, but it doesn't look all that ugly.

Also, looks are not one the criteria I tend to go for when I decide on a console, it must be said, so it doesn't really bother me.

Why does it matter what it looks like, it's performance that matters right? If you don't like it just put a towel or a bed sheet over it or something.

 

[messy]

Absolutely, that's why they let you choose colours. Everyone knows silver ones go faster.

*Sigh* No, no, no!
If you wanted to play to stereotypes, you'd have said, "Everyone knows black ones go faster."

Alternate punchline: "Everyone knows racing stripes makes it go faster."
I feel like I have to do everything around here.

Hacks! Amateurs! There is nothing you can do that I cannot do better!
NOTHING!
*sun rises*
*Max burns to death*

You forgot about speed holes, that makes cars go faster.


OT; I think it looks rather good, although as long as it still does what the old ps3 does I don't care about looks. Consoles are all about inner beauty

Subjective of course. I felt it was too "clunky", controllers too.

Yeah, the controllers were odd at the time.

I say the plaid ones go the fastest, because that means they've gone to ludacrous speed.

Hmm... Speed holes eh? *takes pickaxe to car*

 

[sirdanrhodes]

You know, I think it looks kinda good. They took the ugly fat PS3, and made it less like a grill version.

The PS3 went to fat camp...

 

[daz_O_O]

It is ugly, but a kind of BWM Z4 ugly. There's something cool about it that I just like.

 

[DeadlyYellow]

Pfft, who cares if my PS3 is a little on the heavy side. It still has an Emotion engine and that's good enough for me. Versatility over aesthetics.

I always felt the PSX was an ugly system.

 

[Xyphon]

..... You think that's ugly?

Spoiler: BEHOLD!

 

[jimduckie]

its just as fugly as the fat ps3 but gee sony why only one color ?
