Titanium Blue PS3 Hitting Japan This Month

Blue steel!

While we're all busy debating Kinect and Move, it's easy to forget that for members of a younger generation, this holiday season marks the beginning of their journey into console gaming. And really, what better way to enter the world of PlayStation than with a blue PS3?

What you see here is the titanium blue PS3 that's set to hit Japan on November 25. Part of a Gran Turismo 5 bundle, there's no word on whether or not American gamers will get a chance to purchase one of these colorful consoles. We wouldn't be surprised if, as with many colored versions of popular electronics, it's a limited edition and only available to Japanese customers.

Still, if you find yourself inconsolable and yearning for a blue PS3 to go with your dreams of a white Christmas, you can always hit up Colorware and get them to help you out. It'll only cost you an arm and a leg ($450 for a new, painted console or $149 to paint your existing PS3) but what's money when you can be the only cat in town with a powder-blue PS3?
