I recently ordered a silver PS2 from a different magazine, however they decided it would be a great idea to send me a slimline one instead. anyway i phoned them up and they say silver is out of stock, but i digress. I decided to keep the new slimline PS2 only to find my multitap does not work. after worrying about whether it is broken i find i need a new slimline multitap as well.

Why? Whats the point? why wont the old one work? It's the same thing really isn't it? Are sony just trying to get more money out of us?

anyway I went down to the merry old town of Ipswich and decided to buy one, guess what they aren't out yet.

Did any shop know when they were going to be available? No!
Should I really need to buy a new Multitap? No! (so what if it doesn't look like my PS2, a multitap is a multitap)

OK Rant over

Looking at that website

So What!!! a multitap is a multitap they all do the same, I don't care if it looks wrong with my new PS2 (which, incidentally I didn't think I would like but actually do now I have seen it). No More Timsplitters 2 or Multi-Player Smackdown vs Raw till I get one, which at the rate the stores in Ipswich are going will be the 32nd of Octember 2286.

SR don't have any either.

"Sony have thought of everything with the next sleek design of the PlayStation 2, to save having a Multitap bigger than the console itself they have designed this new smaller version".

What a nice way to put it.
