We never thought the PLAYSTATION 3 looked like a grill and still don't! We likened it to a Victorian waffle iron in disguise. (It is, yo.) The rest of the internet thought it more suited for cook-outs, thus giving birth to this odd and costly hack: The Real PS3 Grill. According to its website:

When the final case design of the Playstation 3 was released, it was widely criticized as looking exactly like a George Foreman Grill. A few months later, Photoshopped pictures started emerging on the internet of the Playstation 3 with a grill built into it. So, after seeing these pictures, we decided this would be a great project and challenge to actually build the Real PS3 Grill. After much support and advice from the X-S forums we decided to dedicate a site to update everyone about The Real PS3 Grill.

And apparently, they did. A Japanese PS3 was gutted and a working griddle was inserted under the hood. The modders have the cooked wieners and chicken to prove it! Yum. Brian Ashcraft
