manny_c44 Posted May 17, 2005 Xbox and Sony are sure giving Nintendo alot of space to win out in the design category. And what's up with the 'Spider Man 2' font? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McChicken Posted May 17, 2005 That Spiderman font is simply ridiculous. Well, in a way, it fits to the rest so it's not that bad. Edit: And the controller is just... wordless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David Posted May 17, 2005 Probably newsworthy but I'm depressed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OftenK Posted May 17, 2005 ...Why...does the controller look like a boomerang? Also, the Spider Man font is ridiculous. Not only does it just not look good on that design (as if anything would), it's so obviously the spider man font that that's the only thing people will think of when they see it. But maybe I'm just being overly cynical. I've been an asshole all day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SiN Posted May 17, 2005 OMG ... i cant frigging believe this! look, honest to god, when i saw the first xbox360 mock-ups (u kno, the ones that ended up being real), i was like "holy shit that looks horrible, its SUCH a fake its not even funny!" ... but it ended up being real! the ps3 looks just like the xbox360, pretty uncreative ... the only think i like is the fact that the drive is slot-loading. i get the feeling ninty will be doing the same. but right now, i HONESTLY dont believe that controller is real. i'll believe it ONLY when i see it on a more official site, because that quite frankly looks like shit ... the shit beginner 3d modellers make as their very first model, post it on message boards, and have people laugh at it ... HONESTLY dont believe it! SiN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrHoatzin Posted May 17, 2005 I liked best the waffle iron and the discular design for the next Xbox and PS respectively... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duncan Posted May 17, 2005 That controller is fucking awful. Probably newsworthy but I'm depressed. Yeah, tell me about it. I'm pretty much burnt out on anything console related. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tanukitsune Posted May 17, 2005 It looks hideous! It supposed to be a console, not bloody modern art piece! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Intrepid Homoludens Posted May 17, 2005 Seriously! Gamer geeks can be so plebeian sometimes. Get over yerselves! Screw you. It's beautiful in its simplicity, reminds me of some of Jean Nouvel's buildings, or sensual modernist architeture, like those Oscar Niemeyer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrHoatzin Posted May 17, 2005 a) In the words of the immortal Ali G: It's nice. I like it. Better yet, I abhor the barrelled roof and the batman boomerang controller. I would much rather have a featureless plastic box and an equaly inconspicuous thinggie to put my hands on. But frankly my dear, c) I don't give a damn.

netmonkey Posted May 17, 2005 Is this fo real? I guess it appeals to the native Australians, but seriously... does the controller actually return to your hand when you throw it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thrik Posted May 17, 2005 Sadly, it's true. And haha, yes. The first thing I thought when I saw it in its flat position was "priner". :~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eproxus Posted May 17, 2005 At least it has a slot-in CD drive, for that I'm thankful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

baconian Posted May 17, 2005 the controller looks like it's melted or something. Doesn't look very comfy either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eproxus Posted May 17, 2005 The controller is smaller than you think. Anyone seen the techdemos? http://www.gamespot.com/ps3 They're quite amazing. Wargames and bare dressed girls. And EA! Yay! Yay! Yay! Their new game: A boxing game! And their new "big thing": No health meters, you can actually see on the boxers how healthy they are. Now that's original! Although the new Killzone looks nice.
