PS2 £105 
The PS2 inches ever closer to the mystical £99 barrier
Posted by Chris Snook - PlayStation 2 - UK and Europe

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe made the surprise announcement that they were lopping off twenty-five quid from the price of a new PlayStation2. With immediate effect.

That brings the PS2 down to a tantalising £104.99.

David Reeves, President of SCEE said in regards to the price change, "PlayStation 2 has enjoyed phenomenal success, and the time has now come to go well beyond our 24 million PlayStation 2 owners. There are already over 1,000 games titles available, and many more new ones like Gran Turismo 4, The Getaway: Black Monday, Singstar Party, EyeToyTM Play 2 and Killzone, all to be published by SCEE, and titles such as GTA San Andreas from Take 2, Burnout 3: Takedown from Electronic Arts and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater from Konami still to come this year."

He continued: "This new price point of £104.99, together with this incredible line up of titles, will make it both affordable and exciting for everybody to enjoy the fun of PlayStation gaming, and will ensure that PlayStation 2 continues to be the computer entertainment system of choice for an ever widening and diversifying audience."

Now the speculation begins as to when the first sub-£100 PS2.
