The pink PS2 hits UK in November

It’s a little late in the game for you to have to justify a PS2 to your ladyfriend, and it’s way late in the game if your ladyfriend is of the ilk to want a PS2 of her very own. That said, as we all know well from Motorola and their best-selling RAZR, when you’re late getting your new product out the door, the thing to do is release the old product in a new color. Enter the pink PS2. We’re not yet entirely sure when (or if) it’s hitting US shores, but it’s launching on the 8th of November over in Old Blighty. Oh, and for our gamer pals across the pond: thanks to the Leipzig Games Convention, which kicked off today, you’ll see a dip in price of that PS2 as well. It’ll only set you back £94.99 and €129.99 now, which doesn’t help us over in the States too much, but we can’t complain as our PlayStation 2s still cost significantly less.

Remember way back in October of the year 2000, when Sony introduced the PlayStation 2 for $299.99? Yeah, that was a long time ago, but if you still don't have one, don't feel like getting a 360 or waiting any longer for the PlayStation 3 -- whenever the hell that'll be released -- or just want another PS2 for around the house, you'll be pleased to know Sony once again dropped the price on the PS2. Now the diminutive console will run you $130, down twenty bucks since the console's standing price since its last cut about two years ago. They're still not gonna beat out Nintendo's ever-cost effective $99 GameCube, but hey, when it comes to games, we know for a lot of people it just ain't about the price.
