Sure, the Playstation 3 offers next-gen gaming complete with Blu-ray movie playing capabilities and free online play. But why make do with that when you can have one of these. It’s a red PS2 and it’s hitting Japan in July. In red.
Yep, Sony thinks there’s still life in the old dog yet, with over 130 million units worldwide, games are still being made for the PS2 such as Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters coming out this summer.
It’s the perfect gift to lovers of retro gaming or anyone else who wants to stick two fingers up to next-gen gaming in favour of simpler times.
Still, given Sony’s reluctance to treat Britain to new PS3 skins, it’s a bit annoying that they’re wasting time peddling old technology. Come on Sony, where’re our special edition PlayStations?
