Kane99 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 (edited) Moderator Edit: A few days after the original posting of this topic, the company involved with the Limited Edition console cancelled all orders due to cliams of threats against the safety of thier employees, making the original context of the thread redundant through no fault of @Kane99. Because of this, I have moved the thread to a different sub-forum and changed the title so the conversation can continue in the vain of the way the story has developed and changed. I hope you will join with me in thanking @Kane99 for the original posting and continue to discuss the story here in the appropriate tone. A new PS2 themed PS5 is coming out January 8th. To me, it doesn't look that much like a PS2. The colors seem off to me, and don't quite match up. Either way, it's a sexy looking console. Are you going to purchase it?

The Blackangel Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Apparently I'm missing something. If they say it's PS2 themed, then good for them, but I just don't see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dotgician Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Hold the phones.. theyre making a black PS5? haha that is awesome.. Sucks for everyone who paid the $1k+ to own it during the holidays. This one is 10x better then the white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Yeah I learnt about this today. Apparently, it's being sold by a company called SUP3R5 and not Sony so I don't think it's an official PS5 color (not as yet anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 If it's not an official PS5 and not a Sony product, they could be in some deep shit for copyright infringement. It's almost an exact replica, AND I think I'm seeing the PS logo at the bottom of the system. Now, if it has been presented to Sony, and they're releasing pictures to gauge gamers opinions, that's another thing entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 No extra cost then so be 🙂 might have fans buying it. I don't dislike the controller but the main device looks weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shagger Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) Why can't the world have anything nice due to somebody's stupidity? This new PS2 themed PS5 sold out almost immediately of course, but mere hours later the company behind it cancelled all the orders and are not proceeding with project due to "credible threats" to their safety. Beit disgruntled customers who missed our whoever it was, this is now not happening. I am so sick of idiots who seems to bulling and threatening people is an acceptable way to behave.

An article from tech radar. As we've discussed in other threads, there's a toxic section of the gaming community that needs to be exiled because they act like absolute retards when they can't get what they want. We need some sort of system in place to deal with issues like this in the future so that the culprits can be exposed and an example made of them.
