Silver Sony PSTwo

Maybe to take away some of the silver flair of the new Xbox 360, Sony Europe is going to launch a silver version of the slim-line PSTwo on May 13th. Along with the console, there will be silver versions of the vertical stand, memory card, Dualshock controller, DVD remote control, and the EyeToy camera.

David Reeves, President of SCEE said, "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."
