    It was the launch package. The man in the pictures is Hidekazu Yukawa from Sega. He's also in the DC TV commercials, check them out if you can find them.

    The dye used to make the red coloring on the box was made using this man's blood. He volunteered his services for the ad campaign, as well as his life, as part of a last ditch, kamikaze-style effort to do as much damage to Sony as possible. God bless'em.

    Somehow, Sony found this man's skeleton and, as if to send a message back to Sega, made a white PS2 run out of his bones. The vertical stands were made out of his cartilage. His glasses were used to make the lense for the disc-lasers. Yes, they found his skeleton still wearing glasses. I'm not sure how they made a full run off of just one skeleton, but they may have outsourced to China, I'm not sure.

    Console wars, indeed.
