In a bold move Sony today annouced that they would be remodelling the Playstation2 in order to appeal to a new audience. So far 3 new models have been announced:

'Playstation Number 2', or 'PSpoo' for short is shaped like a big curly poo, with a little quiff on the end, it looks like it was curled out by a right posh bird, and it looks a bit nutty, though in fact, it's quite smooth to the touch. In another nice touch, when the disc tray is opened it makes fart noises.

Project Leader for the PSpoo, Quentin Tintintin had the following to say. "The Playstation Number 2 is a revolution in console design, and we feel that it will be a huge success. We shall be aiming it towards a teen market, those that find toilet humour most appealing."

The second model unveiled by Sony today was the 'Pinkstation'. It's shaped in a similar way to the original PS2, but is covered in pink fur. When the disc tray is opened a faint whiff of perfume is released. The disc tray also has a handy mirror on it.

Penny Nicefluff, the chief designer on the project had the following to say "Aw, isn't it pretty? I'm sure all the girls out there will love the Pinkstation. We also plan a range of cookery and knitting based games, to really boost the market. There should be more girl gamers, and the Pinkstation should make it so, especially as we'll be programming the console to randomly transmit tips on how to please a man on the screen during play."

The final new look PS2 shown today is sknown as the 'OAPS2' It's aimed at an elderly market, which is probably why it's so big, so they don't lose it. It's shaped like a teapot, complete with knitted tea-cosy, and is stacked full of biscuits, which come out when the disc tray opens.

Juan Lopez-Gregorio-Jones, OAPS2 marketing manager, released the following statement: "We here at Sony are confident that the OAPStation will be a success. We going to shout about this console from the rooftops, otherwise the elderly won't hear us. We plan to use freebies in popular brands of boiled sweets to get the console noticed, and with a special range of games for the elderly, including Grand Theft Wheelchair and Metal Hip Solid, it will really make the twilight years of our senile citizens a little more fun."

I polled a number of members of the public on which would be their favourite, and they certainly all seemed popular, a favourite was not clear. When asked what he thought of the PSpoo Bradley Walsh bared his bottom over the console, making it look like it was all of his own work. The cheeky chappy gave a smile to the Daily Star photographer that caught the moment.

Claire Raynor expressed her love for the Pinkstation by licking it. Unfortunately some of the fluff got caught in her throat, and she had to cough it up much like a cat with a hairball.

Stan Boardman mumbled something xenophobic when asked about the OAPS2, before being dragged off by Jimmy Tarbuck.

Delia Smith was said to be having a hard time choosing between the Pinkstation and the OAPS2.

A-Ha frontman Morton Harkett was unavailable for comment at the time of going to press, though his agent said he would be available later, any other time, really.
