So it appears the Playstation 3’s original design wasn’t based on the monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey after all. This is the Parks Building in Osaka, Japan, and it appears awesomely similar to the “God of Consoles” version of the PS3. We’re waiting on confirmation on whether or not the building does “everything” as we expect.

All kidding aside, the similarity from this angle is a pretty cool one (funny as well).

I wonder if the architect gets paid royalties?

You're walking the line of inappropriateness sir. Watch it.
