Anyone hear about the new gold PS3? I saw it on yahoo news, haha. It's a 24-karat gold-plated Playstation 3. It looks just incredibly awesome, and by far the most high-tech looking system to date.

Only thing about it, it's starting price is $4999. Yes, $4999. It's hard to believe anyone would pay 5 grand for a system, even if it's a Christmas present. While it is and does look extremely amazing, I honestly believe you'd be out of your mind to pay 5 grand for a game system. Unless you're Bill Gates.

Let me know what you think.

And pay over 9000 for a car, skidoo, or anything else is ok?

Owen. A car is a means for transportation. Of course people are going to pay 9000 for a car, if they have the money. Getting a gold ps3 for 5 grand is ridiculous, in my opinion anyways. But hey, if you're rich enough, then I suppose it's not so bad. But honestly, why would you waste 5 grand on that when you could be using it on a car or be getting a regular PS3 for 4.7k less?

I'd rather just buy the normal PS3. The gold one looks cool though but again I would just take the normal PS3.

I have the original PS3, but that's ridiculous. I wouldn't pay 5 grand for one, even though I love my PS3

Like Vinster said it looks cool but it's going to have the same features as a regular no matter what really.

The golden ps3 looks ugly, totally ugly, you have to admit it. It makes me want to spew.
The black ps3 is slim and nice to look at.

I wouldn't even pay $1,000 for it, it looks hideous!

well poor people are poor people, just because you can't afford it doesnt mean you have to rip on it.

Stupid...

If you have enough money to buy stuff like this, you should do something more useful like donate it, and get a regular PS3 and a bunch of games.
