Sony: Pink PlayStation 2 Is "Funky Fresh"

By Mark Renton

Pink PS2 on November 1st

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has announced a limited edition PS2 for all the ladies, confident men, and ladyboys in Europe. The Pink PlayStation 2 includes two Pink Analog Controllers and a Pink Memory Card.

“PlayStation 2 is the accessible, affordable way to enjoy new social, communal and interactive entertainment experiences, through software titles like SingStar, Buzz and EyeToy”, said Dan Hill, PlayStation 2 European Brand Manager. “The Pink PlayStation 2 is funky, fresh, and fashionable, and will further broaden the console’s continuing popularity and relevance with a fun new twist”.

We have to admit that we find it funny that Sony describes the pink PS2 as being "funky fresh". Sure, the comma delineates the two words but it's amusing to think that Sony execs using the same terminology as Run DMC.

The new Pink PlayStation 2 will retail for £129.99 in the UK on November 8th. The console will make its debut European appearance on the Sony Computer Entertainment Stand at Games Convention, Leipzig, 23 – 27th August 2006.
