  • quick5pnt0cobra, on 10/12/2007, -2/+58It should be linked to http://flickr.com/photos/46901942@N00/431703492/
  • dominasian, on 10/12/2007, -2/+56if you want to blow that behemoth the be my guest
  • r2builder, on 10/12/2007, -4/+30It's a perfect match for the oversize NES joypad that was on The Screensavers back in the day.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+30I fear if I make a giant wooden 360 it will catch on fire.
  • Ultroniar, on 10/12/2007, -6/+26daridave - I feel I must respond because you clearly missed the very, very obvious joke that the PS3 is a big console. That is all.
  • Shadowdev, on 10/12/2007, -3/+19Just think of the size of those cartridges... *Pictures a giant gold colored Zelda cartridge*... ya I digg that.
  • livesNbox, on 10/12/2007, -2/+17I almost missed the Giant NES because of the GIANT TOOL laying on it..
  • Loonacy, on 10/12/2007, -4/+18I don't remember the original Xbox getting bashed for being bigger than the PS2... Mostly it was getting bashed for its controllers being bigger than the PS2.
  • chingy1788, on 10/12/2007, -3/+15"In 10 years computers would be 10 times more powerful and 100 times larger"
    Hah
    I wonder how many TFlops that thing can do
  • bobbagoose, on 10/12/2007, -7/+17Perhaps you could install on of the new 6.5m processors.
  • antisthenex, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11I think it was a stab at the size, not the system overall.

    Also, the Digg Community didn't simply "decide" to hate the PS3. It's a chore not to.
  • TonyCubed, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11I remember the original Xbox getting bashed for being bigger than the PS2...
  • Cyber_Akuma, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8"Internal Server Error"

    Giant DIGG traffic gives www.thetanooki.com a run for it's money!
  • dRuNk3nIrIsHmEn, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Comments have _what_ to do with the site's server?
  • daridave, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6meh, I ain't offended. I couldn't care less. I just wasn't sure why the title.

    At least it ain't a freakin cake... tired of those! :P

    dugg!
  • Machismo, on 10/12/2007, -7/+11Actually it is funny, because the engineering side of the PS3 design was so awful, it creates what amounts to being the largest object aside from the TV or the sofa in my living room. Sadly it also sits unused. I can't wait to sell it next week.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Now you're playing with power!
  • bobdobolena, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2@chingy1788 Tflops? Bogomips is where it's at! I wonder if that thing can run Ubuntu...
  • bebop717, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Now all I need is a TV in the same proportion then I'm set.
  • jaffo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Because this NES is *almost* as large as a PS3. :)
  • ohmuffin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1shouldnt it be linked to http://nationalgamedepot.zoomshare.com/2.html
  • chaos7, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1why would anyone make that
  • InstantRamen, on 10/12/2007, -9/+10No they are implying that the ps3 is a pile of crap. and how the digg community loves to hate the ps3. It all a ploy to gain popularity with every one
  • smackifilia, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i may not know art, but i know what i like
  • sotopheavy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I would get a sleeping bag, open the lid and crawl in that giant NES and fall asleep right about now.
  • myshoeshurt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"Honey, I Shrunk The *****"
  • jaffo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I wonder if he'll gut it and make an NESpc?
  • animegod, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Wow. People get really worked up over a mildly amusing joke and only slightly interesting photo. I dugg it but it's not that funny.

    Animegod would like to invite you to become a member of Konami RPG Stars!
  • Toast1185, on 10/12/2007, -4/+4Dugg because of the blogs thorough enjoyment of "the working light". Maybe it is run by an army of curious cats
  • dcprattdotcom, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2@gxcdesign - not so much Photoshop as massive amounts of plywood. Maybe I shouldn't admit this, but I speak from experience as I helped Jason (aka National Games Depot) construct this nerdy bohemith.
  • Loonacy, on 10/12/2007, -6/+4@bobba
    Not sure why you got dugg down, but that was freakin' hilarious. My coworker gave me a strange look after I barely stifled a laugh. Imagine a guy with a paint roller and gold paint putting a circuit on a giant piece of green plastic.
  • felyduw, on 10/12/2007, -8/+6@daridave

    Most likely you have no sense of humour.

    But ask yourself if you find it funny if you went back three years and replaced PS3 with Xbox. If you do, then you're the fanboy here.
  • trollick, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1"Internal Server Error" - What the ***** does that supposed to mean???
  • alpine75, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1...Now if someone could make it drivable...
  • discochew, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Apparently video game blogs are okay, seeing as anything involving video games is considered news by diggers.
  • EvolvedAnt, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1"especially when the ***** server is totally dead at 80 diggs / 12 comments."

    That's almost 15%!
  • sameagain, on 10/12/2007, -8/+5@dominasian

    that's what he said
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -7/+3but.. its not wordpress, and its not dead
  • anteyekon4myst, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1Looks like a coffin.
  • JDLemea, on 10/12/2007, -8/+3Oh man is that pose amazing!

    /end sarcasm
  • discochew, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2Gives PS3 a run for its money? In the race for what, most expensive useless console?
  • Blainex, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1freakin site is down
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -8/+2How the ***** does this give the PS3 a run for its money?
    Sony wasnt intentionally making the PS3 large because of some marketing idea

    OP fails
  • nreynolds, on 10/12/2007, -19/+13is the title implying PS3 is really big? i guess it's a joke its just not funny since the PS3 isn't all that bigger than the 360. But I guess that picture was slightly interesting...
  • ZeroMP, on 10/12/2007, -12/+6Blogspam makes baby Jesus cry... especially when the ***** server is totally dead at 80 diggs / 12 comments.
  • polyGone, on 10/12/2007, -8/+2Digg should just block wordpress from the get go...
  • chingy1788, on 10/12/2007, -9/+2The bottom half of the ps3 is just a heat sink and fan
  • Adma1, on 10/12/2007, -9/+2but will it blend?
  • Tordenflesk, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1"FireStats is not installed in the database, go to the FireStats database tab to configure FireStats"
