LE colored PS2s out in U.S.

**thray-walsh** · 27 Nov 2002, 03:46 PM

After years of waiting, Sony finally released the limited-edition PS2s stateside: Silver, White, Blue, Red and Yellow. They're only available at the PlayStation store at the Metreon in S.F.

I ran down and picked up the yellow one this morning. The finish is a nice, glossy lacquered look that is highly reflective. $314 (with matching vertical stand) is a little pricey, but it's just too obscene/bizarre to pass up, imo. They have stacks of around 50 of each color there now; I'm curious how long unitl they're all gone...

here's a look

I would love to have a Silver one. It would go very well with my tv.

Mmmm..I'm not one for specially colored systems but that Blue PS2 looks down right sexy.

*Laughs at the price*

DAMN...I LOVE THE METREON! 40 BUCKS FOR A PARAPPA SHIRT!? SIGN ME UP!

or just send your system to colorconsoles for like a 10th of that price.....theyll do your stand as well.

I really wanted that yellow PS2. but at that price its not really worth it for me...

eh, if you already havea PS2, why not paint it yourself?

all you need is some nice spray paint (acryillic?) and clear coat and youre set.

...taking apart a ps2 should be that hard...

If the cost was more reasonable and they were more widely available... I would buy one of those. Maybe red or blue....

I'd rather see them release that translucent blue one though, to be honest.
