The PlayStation 3 is one of the most powerful consoles on the market today but it shares a flaw that many of the other consoles have – it has a very simple and plain design. There are many that are happy with the glossy black and chrome design but there are some, you’re probably one of them if you’re reading this post, that want something more. They want their console to stick out from the rest of the thousands of identical PS3s on the market. And the way that you can accomplish this is by applying a simple sticker or skin as they are called.
Sony PS3 Skins
PS3 skins are very similar to stickers – you just peel off the backing and paste them right onto your console without ever having to take it apart and void your warranty. These vinyl decals come in several different parts for easier application and if you ever decide you don’t like them and just peel them right off. Almost all decal kits come with a full case design and many also come with PlayStation 3 controller skins. What makes skins so great is that you can pick from thousands of different designs or you can have a custom skin made for your PS3 console. Most skins also last for many years – often longer than the actual game console.
You can get a PS3 skin from anywhere from $10 to $20 or more. It actually ends up being cheaper than painting your console if you had to go out and buy all the materials yourself. It certainly is much easier and less time-consuming. Considering that they make your console look better as well as also protecting it from dust, scratches, and grime they are a pretty good investment.
Painting Your PS3 And Custom Cases
For a truly custom PS3 case, you can always try your hand at painting the case yourself. You really should try this unless you have experienced painting plastics and the like. Also painting your console’s case will void your warranty so if that is important to you, skip this option. If you’re not experienced painting things yourself there are shops out there that will provide you with completely custom cases all ready for you to take home. It’s a really cool way to make your console stick out even more than skins will.
So if you really wanted your PS3 video game console to stick out from the rest, you now know some of the available options that you have. All you need to do is buy a simple skin for your game console for go with one of the other more complicated options covered here.
