PlayStation 3 consoles to be available in "Azurite Blue" and "Garnet Red" for a limited time.
Sony Entertainment Australia has revealed two new colour schemes for the PlayStation 3 console. The 500GB model of the console will be released in colours "Azurite Blue" and "Garnet Red" for a limited time.
Fans who wish to pick up the new PS3 can expect a RRP of A$399.95 when it is released on February 21 this year, a day after Sony makes an announcement which the Wall Street Journal has reported as the official unveiling of the PlayStation 4.
Earlier this month, Sony released a 45-second teaser video suggesting the company will make a significant announcement on February 20 at 6 p.m. EDT. The "PlayStation Meeting" will be taking place in New York, according to an invite sent to GameSpot by Sony. The teaser video does not share any concrete information as to what may be divulged at the event.

So late to the party...why did they even bother, are they trying to copy 3DS with different colours?..hoping it will sell more.
Might as well just buy an older model, because odds are games will come with it, unlike this overpriced absurdity.
Nice, i love the red one!
to bad the PS4 will be out end of this year or next so i wont bother buying just for a colour change.
1 Like Every thingin Australia is over pirced, new videogames can be up to 100$ , gas prices higher, everything and the autralian dollar is 1 to 1 with the american. =P
