Ceramic White PS3 up close and personal (screens)

Here is an up close and personal look at the new 40GB PlayStation 3 in ceramic white. The model is scheduled for a November 11th release in Japan. There are also pictures included that show side by side comparisons of the new 40GB model and the currently available black 60GB PS3 model. Pictures after the jump.

[IdontTakeSides]

Sweet...but I like my shiny black beast..!!!

[Violater]

Why does the white on have to be on top of the black one??
I tell you cant catch a break.

Anyway I have my ceramic white DS3 on pre-order hmmmmmmmmm rumble

[ruibing]

Same here, but this does blend in with some of the more contemporary styled homes better. The matted surface is much more resilient against smudges and scratches but it doesn't have that chrome finished look anymore. It also requires less power to run, which explains the decrease in vents.

They should also produce some limited edition GT5, FFXIII, and MGS4 ones when those games come out. I know quite a lot of people who would love to have one of those bundled with the game.

Trick people into thinking the white PS3 is really a 360 so people will buy it? ahahhahahahahaha

[Quickstrike]

the PS3 was 1st shown as a white system. It was a matter of time b4 they would release a white PS3.

[Foliage]

Hey lawman, is that why the "elite" was black?

[mgbass13]

point for foliage...

[skynidas]

there are some differences between the holes that are made to let the beast breath!

[doomsonyman]

Jealous of the 360 as usual. If not, why did you mention it in a thread that has nothing to do with it?

Oh well, I'm off to download some of the 113 playable demos available on Xbox Live. See ya!

[Bubble Buddy]

bully for you jenzo, have a fun time.

[dantesparda]

cuz the the PSN has 48 demo's out on there now, which is only slightly behind the same rate as the 360. Remember its only been out 11 months, whereas the 360 has been out for almost twice as long at 1 year and 11 months. So the PS3 is moving close to the same rate as the 360 is with demos.

The elite is black so it can use its huge black balls to tea bag you

[solar]

i love the white ps3. wish i could trade my blacky for the whitey....would look great next to my wii.

[solidt12]

you are retardey!

[solar]

thx! :D

[snittolo]

Wow that sure is a sweet looking system. Even tho I like the black look that the 60GB model has this will make me think of picking up a 40GB model for another room.

[Bnet343]

I'm going all white this gen!

[HarryEtTubMan]

EVEN THOUGH i'M GETTING THE 80GB MY BROTHER AND SEVERAL OF MY FRIENDS ARE PICKING UP THE 40GB FOR CHRISTMAS(THEY ARE CHEAP LOL)

[HondaSIRowner]

It looks like ivory, damn Delicious!

[supermandead666]

Look very nice.

[Tsalagi]

I thought about having Colorware paint my 60GB white, but i think i'll wait and see if they decide to bring the official white one to America. I still won't buy one unless something was to happen to the black 60GB PS3 i have now (hopefully not) but i would replace it with a white version.

[The_Firestarter]

If I had to choose between the white and black PS3, I'd definitely choose the white model. I seriously hope they bring the white PS3 to the US before I would have to buy the black one.

I have nothing against the black model, but that ceramic white is irresistible!

[gtgcoolkid]

Hmm do I need a second PS3?

[Danja]

The Ceramic PS3 look damn fine..but I already own a 60GB and it's chromed out..i'll pass on this one...if they make a MGS limited edition im sold..!!

[level 360]

Looks so much better... but where are those damned games already?!

[Baba1906]

in the store!

[Antiomo]

Dark Metalic blu version.

[Exia]

It looks nice but it doesn't match with my TV set.

[Solid_Skip]

i like my 60gb better, but the white does look good. hopefully more colors will come out one day

[asdfasdf128]

it looks really nice, but too bad us 60gb owners cant just buy the case & swap it... :'(

[Vip3r]

Anyone noticed how the white one doesn't have a super audio logo on it but the black on does?

[Salvadore]

Looks great, but I prefer the black one.

[[email protected]]

Look good & sexy. I hope Sont bring that model to US.

[MrWonderful]

has anyone else noticed that plat asia says clear white and it looks different.

[UltramanJ]

I prefer my black PS3, but the dust won't show as much on the white one.

[PimpHandHappy]

im sure that is Elephant ivory

[CRIMS0N_W0LF]

I tipsed this long ago!

[Tranz]

so this is how a game console made by Apple would look like.... stick to black

[DFresh]

I love the color
but
I already got the black 60gb
so I'm sold
good job for Sony
giving the costumers options

[zonetrooper5]

I like the Black one better actually even the white 360 is nice. I would like to see a sliver PS3.

[Adriokor]

Anyone buy any?

I wouldn t mind this one :)

[Bonsai1214]

dang, that is one sexy machine. i'll be picking up controllers for sure.

anyone notice that the jacks in the back are in a different position? new motherboard/chipset?

[fredy]

but what I hate about white consoles, over time they be come yellow and sh!t.

I'll take a black one if I had to choose...since white never goes well with your entertainment center

anybody has white hdtv or components?

[DZNetworks]

YELLOW? What the hell do you pee on it?

[ReBurn]

I know what he's talking about. The SNES had a terrible yellowing problem.

[DiGiTaL Ki11eR]

did anyone notice on the white console there are no air vents on the top of the underside like the black one?? weird.

[DZNetworks]

You can buy a ceramic white ps2 to go with your ceramic white ps3 since the ps3 no longer has backwards compatability.

[PANDADjCK]

My tv is black, so i'll keep my nigger PS CAT.

[theoneandonly]

Sony fanboys constantly like to tout how their system is superior because it gets all the RPGs, or all the role-playing games worth mention.

Well I'm looking at the big picture, and that sure as hell ain't very true this time around.

XBOX360 overall has had more RPG developers sign on for it, then the XBOX 1 or PS3 combined.

http://www.n4g.com/xbox360/...

AVATAR: Burning Earth is just one such example but there are others such as Sacred 2, which will be 360 exclusive.

There are quite a few European developers exclusive to the 360 when it comes to RPGs.

And then, there are quite a few Japanese RPGs like AVATAR and more than ever before.

Lets see here....

XBOX 360 has,

ABSOLUTE BLAZING INFINITY, http://image.com.com/gamesp...
SPECTRAL DIARIO: REBIRTH MOON LEGEND, http://image.com.com/gamesp...
MAGNA CARTA 2, SPECTRAL DIARIO 3: SAGA, APOCALYPSE: DESIRE NEXT, http://media.xbox360.ign.co... , BLUE DRAGON, ABSOLUTE BLAZINING INFINITY 2(announced), BLUE DRAGON 2, LOST ODYSSEY, INFINITE UNDISCOVERY, ETERNAL SONATA, FAR TALES: EAST OF EDEN ZARIA, X QUEST, PHANTASY STAR ULTRA ILLUMINUS....

That is just whats there so far. Blue Dragon 1 sold 200,000 copies in Japan so the game is still selling. All the above were or are JRPGs that would be exclusive to the XBOX360 along with the adventure game.

Except for MAGNA CARTA 2 that was also on PS2. Plus what if ETERNAL SONATA 2 is announced, just as they port the original. That brings the grand total to: 12 JRPGs exclusive to XBOX360.

Meanwhile, PS3 owners constantly tout games such as DISGAEA 3 being exclusive to PS3......but who's to say they don't eventually PORT DISGAEA 3 to 360, as it actually raises & becomes even MORE competitive in Japan?

http://www.the-magicbox.com...

NEVER SAY NEVER, IN THIS INDUSTRY....

If SONY can eventually claw back some market in NORTH AMERICA, then open your damn eyes because the 360 is doing exactly that in JAPAN..... 560,000 units sold to date is far better by 2 times than the original Xbox EVER got...

SONY goes on to create its own "HALO" by copying HALO using the KILLZONE franchise, then MS can sure as hell copy "FINAL FANTASY" and create their own final fantasy....

IM SICK OF ARGUING WITH SONY FANBOYS.......they dont need a brain they need some good ZANAX because GUESS WHAT.....ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE IN THIS INDUSTRY.....

If SONY can copy MS and make their own million selling HALO or FABLE franchise, then MS can sure as hell copy SONY and get their own FINAL FANTASY going the same way.......
>xD

All it takes is time, everything takes time......

[jaja1434]

Yea thats great and all, but what does it have to do with a white PS3?

[mgbass13]

you might possibly be the biggest loser on this entire site. Good luck with life!

[theoneandonly]

Are they going to sell collector glasses with it too, because this is sounding more like a fashion show than a console war.....

> X-D

Seriously what's that term.....

A rant a day keeps the SONYFANGIRLS away, I love that!

[mgbass13]

What's it like being the living stereotype of a gaming virgin? Just curious...

[TheMART]

A 360 to own now

This Christmas the white PS2 with rumble controllers (and great games to play like God of War 2)
Christmas 2008 the white PS3 with rumble controllers (at that time at least good games to play)

[theoneandonly]

Does "CERAMIC" mean it will break if you pick it up and accidentally "drop" it?

>xD

God of War 2 was good, but that's not a PS3 game. How come Heavenly Sword was the shortest, crappiest game this year? That's what they still haven't answered for.

What has that got to do with a bunch of torn promise?

TOO LITTLE TOO LATE, PHONY!

[sheng long]

N4G is a beautiful place when you take advantage of the ignore function.

[felidae]

dude .. get a life.

Heavenly Sword is one of the best Actiongames of this generation.

It's your fault if you can't figure out how to play it right.

Hell Mode took me 12 hours, so too short? ... no!
