lol, yeah but there was talk of destroying the internals. Id on't kjnow why anybody would buy a PS3 to do that. A broken PS3 or shell, sure, but spending all that money and shipping to Aus. on a working system.

He's not gonna destroy it anymore. I am sure we can talk him into taking pics of the whole process and shoot some video too. He was asking about video support earlier.

Yeh I probly wont be destoying the insides of it anymore, ill just sell them on ebay (mainly because the donation thing hasnt worked as well as i hoped). And yes, I will take plenty of pics and videos when I open it up. I just have to find someone to get me a PS3 at launch and ship it over here....

Well what i was planning to do was to get enough donations from the website (see sig), enough to buy the 20gb ps3 pack and then smash the insides, but the donation thing kinda hasnt worked, and im not forking out $800 just to destroy a PS3. Hell, i might as well send that money to Danny (the guy who scammed me) I was hoping a lot of people would donate like $20 each. Im more than happy to fork out the money to build the grill, but not to smash a PS3 (if i have to pay for it by myself)

The concept art looks bad, if you're gonna do this you should use the entire ps3 as a grillbed. Thereby you need to lose the BR slot. and also open up hte left side.

Meh, you cant please everyone can you?

And yeh we probly will use the entire PS3 as the grill bed, but it really depends what type of grill we get. And why do we need to loose the disc slot? Thatd look pretty weird wouldnt it?

Well, im totally open to suggestions about what people like/dont like about it. Just curios, what dont you like about the pics? I thought they was pretty good for 2 hours work.

I just thought you shuld use the enitre ps3 as a grill bed and to do so and make it look good you probably want to cut in in half where the ps3 is diveded, this would make the ps3 slot be on the top part of the grill. And yeah its just suggestions.

And sorry for posting this in the wrong thread, was sure I was in the other thread when I posted.

Yeh well i quickly made some pics last night with the whole ps3 as a grill bed, and i see what you mean now, it does look better.

Ill probly put those pics up today or something

Where did anybody say smash the 360 in this thread? If he wants to make the PS3 grill more power to him, but I'm not surprised that people don't want to waste their money via donations on destroying something. I think he should just wait and try to find a case or broken system instead of buying a working PS3.

Hell, I like to break shit, but that's when I do it. Giving money to see some kid break something on-line is like paying for porn and that ain't going to happen.

Thats fair enough. As I said before im not going to destroy the PS3 now, just sell it on ebay or something. And im starting to see now how people arent really comforable donating money to see somthing destroyed (actually, i just had a look at smashmyps3.com, and theyre like almost a quarter of the way through getting enought money for a SECOND PS3 to smash how do those guys do it? lol)

time and exposure. You need to get your site posted on a site that gets tons of hits. Try for HardOCP.

Cool thanks for that site, im putting a post in there right now. Ive been trying to advertise it in as many forums as i can find. Plus i think considering the site has only been up for a litle over 2 weeks its doing resonably well.

bigjimmy · « **Reply #12 on:** October 30, 2006, 12:26:00 PM »

Lol i didnt even think of that. I dont think i have much of a chance of getting something on the main page, but hey its worth a try.

EDIT: Alright, just wrote an email to kyle. Ill be interested to see what he says about this....lol

Grrr. You have to have a subscription to view and post in the off-topic forums. Gay.

No, to be able to view and post in the off-topic forums you have to pay $5 a year. Bit silly really...
