White PSP arriving next week

Sony has announced that the 'ceramic white' PSP, previously only available in Japan, will hit European stores on Monday, and that a new cut-price Platinum range will be launched this summer.

The white PSP Value Pack bundle, which includes a 32MB memory stick, remote control, charger, pouch, wrist strap and headphones, will retail for 249 Euros (£179.99). The original Value Pack currently sells at the same price point.

From June, PSP owners will be able to pick up games such as Everybody's Golf, Ridge Racer, Pursuit Force and World Rally Championship for 24.99 Euros (£19.99). A selection of third-party titles will also be available as part of the new PSP Platinum range.
