I mean, if there are no custom sounds, LEDs, inscriptions, unique hardware designs, special textures, etc. then how is this a \u201cfully customized\u201d console? It\u2019s more like a skin or decal if anything\u2026 I don\u2019t know, maybe it\u2019s just me\u2026 I just think there\u2019s too much unrealized potential here for such an iconic character and concept design.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>However, some fans have turned their unhappiness into something creative by showcasing their own <em>Star Wars\u00a0<\/em>PS4 designs.
