Does anyone really care? I did't even know that they were still making different versions of the PS2..
When UK stock runs out they'll release it. They just don't want people holding off on buying the current version for the new one.
erm i think most ppl would like a slimline ps3 not ps2.
How can you make the ps2 any slimmer!? lol
LOL, PS3 is the future now however PS2 is keeping up the sells.
The PS2 is slim enough. When is Sony going to stop supporting the PS2? Just move full support to the PS3 already!
They're selling more PS2s than PS3s per month...why would they give up on it?
i wonder how many versions they will make of the ps3?... maybe thats why they made it so big.
@10 well theres already like 5 diff kinds now.. 20gb,60gb,40gb,80gb,160gb. The ps2 only had 2 versions, the fat one and the slim one.. I hope they don't make the PS3 where they add new stuff to newer PS3's so you have to upgrade or buy a new one, like a computer..
There's the slim PS3 we know but there;s also a slimmER one that reduces the hardware in a much less visible way. the new version is hardly that important, whether they release it there or not they're still selling to people who are years behind the curve, Some countries are JUST getting into the meat of the PS2 generation and arnt even ready to hear about PS3.
@3
Thats what I thought...can they make the PS2 any slimmer? I am surprised that there are alot of people buying these still.
