Slime Ps4

To coincide with the announcement of a whole new Dragon Quest game on PlayStation platforms, Sony revealed a rather strange PS4 design at its pre-Tokyo Game Show conference in a bid to win over fans of the massively popular aforementioned franchise.

So what makes this fresh faced console so abnormal? Well, its design is based around the Metal Slime monster from the Dragon Quest series, which is a beast that yields huge amounts of experience points when it's slain. You can see the little critter dotted around the machine, but that pile of metallic goop at the front is an entirely different story. Named the Liquid Metal Slime for obvious reasons, it looks like you can place the monster on top of the PS4 as an added bonus.

We think it's quite a cool concept, but others haven't taken to it quite so well, calling it gaudy or just a bit too weird. How well do you think this shiny piece of hardware will fare in Japan? Amass huge amounts of experience points in the comments section below.
