#HAHA Weird! #PS3 #WHAAAAAAT?

Omigod guys, you'll never believe what happened. I found a PS3 for ten bucks -- that's right, a PlayStation 3, normally sold for upwards of $500, procured for a single slim Hamilton. It's weird, though. The discs won't fit and the component cables I bought, there's no port for them on the back. Oh god, I've been had!

Witness the latest in a series of displays of unparalleled chutzpah: a Famiclone, weakly rebranded as a PS3 -- specifically, as a "Next System Playstation Meeting". As you may have already noticed -- get yourself checked out if you haven't -- this particular model looks nothing like a PS3, unlike other efforts to ape next-gen consoles, so if the price didn't set off sirens in your head, the wired controllers probably did.

Famiclones are a remarkable phenomenon; enigmas hailing from the Far East that now call the dirt malls and swap meets around our country home. This particular model, however, is the first to bank on consumers' breakneck stupidity to sell the product which, in a postmodern sort of way, is as close to the real PS3 as this little trinket is bound to get.

[Thanks James!]

All you need is a simple mod chip and you'll be able to play Gears on it. For 10 bux, I'd say that's a steal!

Aetsen

You got your BS3 all over my Famicom.

Natedizzle

hilarious

Necros

I must admit, if I found a real PS3 in the wild for $10, I'd pick it up. Then sell it.

Snaileb

....but does it play p0niez?

spongbros

I would pay good money (read: �10) for that console. It's got a much better game library than the PS3.

Woverine

I WANT THIS! lol

deaddays

Don't be late for the next system Playstation meeting!

tim

Those images appear to be edited with Adobe Photoshop software.

BluDesign

tim: That happens sometimes.

spongbros: You're right, it sure does. Here's some of my collection I have for this console.

So where can I get one of those? I didn't think I would so quickly, but I now officially want a "PS3."

SpencersGifts

Atleast this system might have some games that I want to actually freakin play

Aoshi

I'd buy that, bring it to wal-mart, and harass the old cashier in the electronics department for a replacement PS3!
"My PS3 won't play Resistance!!"

Foxtoid

I'm going to camp out for a month to get this one.

zaqu

i really want a couple of these then i can brag to my buddies and tell em i got 5 ps3

zaqu

@dvddesign so jealous that you have rockman2 very awesome

TheGUN

If id didnt come with a pony, its fake!
And since you cant play GeoW on it, it most likely didnt.

sammy0_0

OMG im gonna camp out for this thing i bet the graphics are great =0

BFeld13

I guess you could say it's an "impulse buy"

Mxyzptlk

ScarCeLLe13

Detry
