That's disappointing actually. They could have been inventive but instead just plopped Darth Vadar on it and said "that'll don't".
It's not bad by any means but underwhelming and unspectacular. Not exactly a must have in any way when I'm sure you get a decal that would do the same job. And not even a 1TB either. All feels a bit half hearted and Sony just bent over and took it.

It certainly looks a lot better in that lighting.

It's definitely a step up from use putting stickers on the hard drive cover.
They need to stop putting tacky embroidery on the touch pads though, seriously.

why is C3-P0s arm red?
why are half the tie fighter cockpits red?
Its red for a reason, something we wont know until movie is out

Will it be 349$ though? Probably not, what with the included 4 "classics".
Maybe if standard bundles drop to 299$, or only on Black Friday.

Wouldn't expect less from a Darth Vader fanboy.

OP should add the trailer. It's good.

Is currently staging a hunger strike outside Gearbox HQ while trying to hate them to death
Kylo Ren is a Darth Vader fanboy, that's what he meant.
I really like that controller.
I personally think it looks great. Kind of wish R2/L2 was red and blue as well though. I'll probably pick one of these up though if they sell them by themselves.

Good lord the reactions in here are over the top. I didn't even think much of it either way but going by the reactions in here you'd think Sony personally insulted you.

The console looks awesome, I like it... But what is the box art for the console going to look like? An eye-catching box covered with Star Wars art could move a few consoles by itself...
Could make a wonderful display under the Christmas tree....

Well they made sure that they are going to sell a lot of Disney Infinity. Once the Battlefront bundle is sold out people are going to buy the Infinity bundle to get the console.

Sony has more limited edition consoles than games this holiday season...console looks ok, controller is ugly as hell.

the controller looks like a bootleg controller that was pieced together using spare parts from other controllers. The 4th controller that nobody wants to use when you are playing couch multiplayer with friends.

Lets be real here though folks
This thing is going to sell an epic fuck ton if they produce enough of them.
Sony better not hold back. Produce the shit out of these and we are talking record Holiday sales numbers

yup, i wonder if the white ps4 with the stoormtrooper was fake/fanmade?
Goodacre0081

every promotional shot of the PS4 has the blue light but that's only during boot up. it'll be white during normal operation and red if it overheats.

The console is a thing of beauty.

Its the same controller it just have different colors. Not like its 3rd party.

It's the same colour scheme as the death star controls - especially the detention block. I love the controller.
The colours mimic the layout of Vader's chest computer thingy according to Adam Boyes.
Edit: Sorry, it was Sid Shuman that said it.

Thanks for the feedback! The DualShock 4 colors align with Vader’s chest computer

They going to clean house with those bundles though.

Indeed, this and the yet unannounced COD bundles will do amazingly well in Nov+Dec.
Especially if they announce a price cut on top of it in late October.

I like the console & love the controller. This is going to sell a lot of units for sure.
For US so far Star Wars,Destiny and Batman.

There's a giant Darth Vader on the PS4 itself. That alone should tell you this bundle is based on Battlefront, not the new movie, which are two different things aside from a single DLC map.

I guess Destiny has the white PS4 market on lockdown.
The guy used as the avatar is a Darth Vader fanboy.

Fortunately you get some games with the console, so at least Sony will have five games this Holiday. Right?
My god, those consoles could make even a Sarlacc vomit I suppose they're at least they're consistent with how ugly their Star Wars consoles are.
I wonder if there are limited edition consoles on Tattoine that look just like the PS4 and 360 which almost everybody thinks are ugly, but they sell out on pre-order anyway?
Giriath_89

Only two of those looks like special edition consoles. Lots of bundles though.
Well, that was subtle.
Anyway, I actually read the youtube comments before this thread, people there are begging to buy the controller separately. I'm not your biggest Star Wars fan so I don't care about this console either way.
