Sony's New PS2
Are you one of the 13 people who hasn't purchased a PlayStation 2 but really wants to sing off key with your friends? Well, Sony has a deal for you.

For $149.99, you'll be able to pick up SingStar Pop, two microphones and the brand-new Ceramic White PlayStation 2 when the latest Sony bundle ships in November. The company says the move is part of its initiative to emphasis social gaming this holiday.

"With our expansive library of titles for PlayStation, led by social gaming experiences such as SingStar, and Buzz!, we have an incredible offering for first-time gaming families," said Jack Tretton, SCEA's president and CEO, in a news release. "At $149, the limited edition Ceramic White PlayStation 2, bundled with the family-friendly social gaming title, SingStar Pop, is an unbeatable value that will provide fun for everyone this holiday."



SingStar Pop features 30 songs and six medleys from artists such as U2, Gorillaz and 3 Doors Down and challenges players to sing along with pitch and timing indicators on the screen to score points and bring down the house. The Ceramic White PS2 and Dual Shock controller feature all of the bells and whistles -- DVD and CD playback, digital surround sound, memory card slots, Ethernet port, etc. -- that the other slim models of the system have.

- IGN

YES! I'm definitely getting this since I haven't bought a PS2 yet.I need to play FFVII-IX and FFX and XII so this would be great.I'll be able to play Shadow Hearts Convenant again,which has been sitting on my book shelf for months. *excited*

Plus,I'll get that singing game along with it and this would go great with my DS Lite.

Ah!

The white looks hagard. They should have just left it black, or go old-school Playstation gray. That would be the sqweep.

I think the white looks pretty darn good. I agree with this being a good deal for family gaming. Sony's answer to Nintendo's Wii maybe?

With the PS3 out, the PS2 will soon die out like the PS1 did.

Why bother now? PS3, XBox 360 and Wii sales will start picking up soon with Christmas just around the corner, so this is just a pointless way to whore out the PS2 before it dies totally.

Saying its with Singstar it looks like its aiming it towards the younger generation.

But still, there are little no games coming out for PS2 now, at least nothing worthy of mention. There's no need to do this.
I'd rather just spray paint my PS2 white anyway; it's a lot cheaper.

Even though that looks great, I already have a PS2 and I wanna save my money for more FF games and a PS3.

With the correct firmware updates, I believe they can.
To be honest, you'd be better saving your money and then buying a PS3. PS2's are nothing special.

I think it comes in black also... this guy I know has one and it's black. But he may have just hacked up an old PS2 and switched in a black cover.
