Instead of picking pretty colours... why not picking a spot for "analog numero deux"?

i wish they made a matt black to avoid scratchs and fingure prints. they also need to call up apple and ask them what kinda screen they have on the iphone that seems to be able to take punishment.

Do these new pastel colored PSPs come with a compartment for birth control pills?

@dtreichler:

That's exactly what I came here to say. Giz is looking pretty fugly with the 360 theme.

@RoyalKennebecasisAdventurersSociety: I stand corrected. For it's time, I suppose the Nomad was pretty darn sexy. Like Don Johnson...

I would like the offer the caveat of "any handheld not created by Ben Heck."

I liked the old Asia colors better - vibrant dark blue and glossy bright pink, as well as the subdued (ie not bling bling) gold. The new colors are not only too much like the DS's, but are just too understated to get me excited.

Obviously you never used the Sega Nomad, I'm pretty sure that thing got me laid once.

@scrag: by that I suppose you mean that the DS redesign imitated the PS2 slimification that preceded it by a few years? I couldn't agree more. Get your own business model, Nintendo!

I don't know where this "fugly" term comes from. Think what you want about the platform, but the PSP is easily the best looking handheld gaming machine ever created. I personally think the colors are pretty nice - not too garish. I wouldn't go for anything in the lavender or pink category (too threatening to my delicate manhood) but I imagine they will appeal to some more than the awful Pepto-Pink units that came before.

Speaking of eyes burning... between the 360 theme on this page and the Nissan ad on the front page, Giz is pretty fugly lately.

Funny that the 'eyes burning' link is the first in a series of orange links on the barf green block, too. :-p

Yeah, it really needs blood red, screaming yellow and midnight blue... this pansy pastel stuff got to go.

You know what they say, imitation is the biggest sign that you have no idea what you're doing.
