If a launch copy of 'The Order: 1886' is $59.99, Sony can't expect users to shell out a similar amount for a faceplate. Fans might be willing to shell out big bucks for numbered 20th Anniversary PlayStation 4 models, but the term "faceplate" (or again, "hard drive cover") exudes a sense of a low price.
While the immediate effect of seeing these two faceplates may not illicit cries of "perfect" from those fans that have envied the stream of ornate and often elegant limited edition PlayStation models that have been offered in Japan, they still appear to be the first stab by the company to allow users to customize the external appearance of their console hardware beyond using a stand. Furthermore, Sony has even begun sending out commemorative faceplates to various developers. One faceplate bears a full-on box art-like image from the upcoming PS4 exclusive 'The Order: 1886,' (available here) while the other features a similar box art-like shot from the recent PS4 & PS3 release, 'Little Big Planet 3' (available here). Sony kicked the program off with "limited" offerings.
There are no decals or questionable accessory makers here, these are products made by Sony (no warranty worries) that can be easily added or removed as the user's taste dictates. Both 'The Order: 1886' or 'Little Big Planet 3' faceplates on-hand for review.Īnnounced on December 6th, Sony is finally offering interchangeable PS4 faceplates (full announcement here), and these faceplates (which are really hard disc drive covers) are one way to turn a hum drum, indistinct PS4 console, into one bearing a design worthy of distinction.
