24kt gold PS3 anyone? Got $4,999?

Wow. Here’s a PS3 that would make Chad Warden proud. It’s a 24 karat gold PlayStation 3, a slim one. For $5k, you get the shiny system, two matching controllers, your choice of a plated or anodized PS3 logo, and a one year full coverage warranty. You also get bragging rights and a potential robbery target. Want one, rich boy? Check out Computer-choppers.com.

Gold not pimp enough, Chad Wardens of the world? How about jewel-encrusted PS3s? They’re working on that next, believe it or not. Those will come with a lifetime warranty.

Look, the bling is fine. Great. But it’s no PS2 backwards compatibility. Can you work that in there too?
