Gunmetal PS3 Isn’t Just A New Paint Job, OK?

No. Konami say it’s much, much more than that, and the more you complain about the price of the gunmetal PS3 (around $US 100 more than a vanilla one), the more upset you’ll make them. Sure, part of the increased cost comes from the fact it’s a limited edition – they’ve made less than 10,000 of them – but the rest comes from the fact the console’s very body has been replaced with a more matte material, giving it that dull, gunmetal finish. Same goes for the control pad. So not a paintjob, OK? A whole new surface. Learn it. Live it. Love it.

    Sometimes I can’t tell whether Kotaku is sarcastic or not.

    lol you american gamers make me laugh, you say its $100 too much for a different colour, but if we had it for the same price, its only a few dollars more than the GTAIV 40GB bundle, so to us its a great deal since all the gaming companies seem to hate australia and give us ridiculous prices
