Well, Mobiletone, a friend of the site that many of you know, has actually gone and done it! He has got (from what we know) the world’s first PS3 tattoo. And, damn, it looks painful.
In Tony’s own words, ‘How much do I love my console? I guess this video says it all. It’s been nearly a year since the PAL UK launch of the console and I decided to get this tattoo done in honour of what I consider the best console ever made. Love gaming, love women and love life.’
Remember kids, don’t try this at home!

Oh dear… he seriously needs to get out more

The original logo would have been nice though.
Comment by Makasu — Mar 7, 2008 @ 1:26 pm
mobiletone - you make me proud!

Forget the tattoo, who’s the hot naked chick with the console, Sony should really think about bundling her as an accessory
Comment by Sarge — Mar 7, 2008 @ 1:46 pm
Its not even the original, what the point and and even bigger question is what does he do when the PS4 comes out
Comment by thaiboy77 — Mar 7, 2008 @ 1:57 pm
I might get a “Playstation Store” tattoo…
Comment by Terry — Mar 7, 2008 @ 1:59 pm

Comment by Terry — Mar 7, 2008 @ 2:00 pm

Comment by John — Mar 7, 2008 @ 2:20 pm
nice one mobiletone - respect

Just as a warning, if you live in a strict office it’s not entirely sfw
Comment by John — Mar 7, 2008 @ 2:48 pm
what a stupid prick!! well at least if he starts to regret it he can just make up something thats initials are ESd.
Comment by BENNE77 — Mar 7, 2008 @ 3:20 pm
Look at the lug-hole on the tattoo artist! What is it about those guys and butchering their ears!?
Comment by reakt — Mar 7, 2008 @ 3:24 pm
Well, anything to take your eyes off of his face is a bonus i ’spose!
Comment by Tony Bland — Mar 7, 2008 @ 3:38 pm
Ha ha ha! Oh MobileTone, you monkey! However, I hope you don’t mind me saying so, but the guy with the PS2 controller tat on his leg was a tad more impressive. You’re all gonna look odd when you get old; or older! Mobiletone looks like he’s been living life with both ends burning. Well done fella!

Anyway yeah, its not smart to get a tatoo. What if the thing goes tits up? like when people get their lovers name and then it ends. Brilliant. 8D

You Squire, are a 100%, dyed in the wool. no half measures, undiluted, no questions asked, absolute,complete and utter idiot.
Comment by Ton Capone — Mar 7, 2008 @ 5:41 pm
Total LOL-fest, that. I’m inspired - I’m going to get a 360 red ring of death tattooed round my nipple.
Comment by rooee — Mar 7, 2008 @ 6:15 pm
He should also have a PS1 and PS2 tattoo to be a real fanboi
Comment by komp — Mar 7, 2008 @ 6:31 pm
I know a guy with a Soul Reaver tattoo, but this…
…this is dedication! Sony should send him something, anything!
Comment by lxd — Mar 7, 2008 @ 7:13 pm
HOLY FECK!
i’m spreading over the internets like teh AIDS, and not the good kind either
the tattoo is still a bit tender this evening, but for the record, it’s not the only one i have, some of my others are seriously messed up. i do have a life and a nice cushty office job (i scrub up pretty well), i doubt i’ll ever regret it. bit late for that considering some of the stuff i’ve done. *tries to look innocent*
and, i consider myself pretty normal for norfolk.
as for what will i do when PS4 comes out? fecked if i know!
nice to see just how non-judgemental some of you are, i’m sure you all live the ideal life [/sarcasm]
now who wants to see the PSP logo on my ‘handheld’?
-haha- stay frosty guys!
Comment by mobiletone — Mar 7, 2008 @ 7:56 pm
@ Mobiletone
I do i do i do i do!!!!
…..wait…..handheld?…..*thinks for a moment*….
Comment by JohnSketch — Mar 8, 2008 @ 1:39 am
so painfully obvious that its been design to be changed.. after he’s got the money for doing this of course.
Comment by ps3 tatto shill — Mar 8, 2008 @ 2:44 am
I wish British people would stop doing things like this. It makes the rest of us look bad. There’s nothing wrong with being a hardcore games fan, but there is no excuse for this tattoo, ever. What a gimp.

Loving the SLF soundtrack not to sure about the ink though.

He may as well have gotten it on his face to hide his looks, MORON ALERT!!!
Comment by Felch — Mar 8, 2008 @ 8:49 am
@ JohnSketch - i’m not THAT much of a Sony fan
@22 - indeed. NFN, it’s the LDN crew that are weird -heh-

Comment by mobiletone — Mar 8, 2008 @ 9:05 am
lmao what a fucking retard
Comment by sam_w — Mar 8, 2008 @ 12:31 pm
Hey I don’t see a problem with it. Now if you’d got inked with a 360 or a Zune logo then I’d be worried…
Comment by Dave Vincent — Mar 8, 2008 @ 12:40 pm
Watch the video for the very last frame, thats baout the only interesting bit. what a lovely pair of controllers….
Comment by Terry — Mar 8, 2008 @ 3:27 pm
Tatto’s kind of lame. Stiff Little Fingers are awesome. there playing here in LA in may and can’t wait
Comment by Jermiah — Mar 9, 2008 @ 8:21 am

Comment by atreyu — Mar 9, 2008 @ 10:01 am

Comment by atreyu — Mar 9, 2008 @ 10:07 am
I feel bad for him when PS4 debuts.
Comment by brie — Mar 9, 2008 @ 8:53 pm
what a complete tit.

[...] This British PS3 fan went and professed his undying love for the PS3 with a tattoo. Now that’s commitment! [...]

Forget the tatoo and all that, who’s the hot chick holding up the PS3 box? There’s the meat of the story!
Comment by Watcher — Mar 10, 2008 @ 6:58 pm
Yes he will look silly when PS4 comes out but…
Look at the design, it is easily changeable or blended into other tattoos he might have done around the original. Just think a few lines here and there and it could pass as one of them chinese symbol tattoos.

Although Tone is a lege and general Dude! I still think he’s a git for getting that tatto. If he was going to do it he should have got some naked chicks around it and maybe a few bombs and dogs, make it look mean!
