Sony Finally Confirms Silver PStwo News

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe today finally confirmed that a silver slim-lined PStwo will be released throughout Europe on May 13th 2005 for £114 (159 Euros) and will include a black DVD remote control. The announcement comes months after the news that UK retailer Argos had posted a page on its web site detailing the product.

SCEE has also announced that a group of â??Satin Silverâ?? accessories ranging from a memory card and vertical stand to a silver EyeToy camera will also be released to support the release of the silver model - something that is sure to please the more colour conscious consumer.

Announcing the impending release of the silver PStwo, David Reeves, President of SCEE said, â??When we introduced the new slimline PlayStation 2 in November last year we delighted consumers with its compact size and elegant style, and hundreds of thousands of existing PlayStation 2 owners upgraded to the slimline model. The new silver model takes the elegance and beauty of PlayStation 2 to new heights. With over 30 million PlayStation 2 consoles in households across Europe, the new Satin Silver model will secure the position of PlayStation 2 as the games console of choice for the keen, and now fashionable gamer.â?
