Europe in fair Linux opportunity shocker! SCE, surely there is some mistake!
Beat out long threads of code for your PlayStation 2. And all in the privacy of your very own locked bedroom!
I am the penguin! Forget Batman, I'm gonna take over the world with my open source operating system.
Sony Computer Entertainment is following the lead set by its Japanese and American counterparts and is gauging the demand for a Linux development kit for the PlayStation 2 in Europe.
The open source Linux kit will enable hobby coders to bash together PlayStation 2 games and applications of their own, and may open the door to a whole host of new possibilities for the machine and its owners.
The kit went on sale in Japan and sold out in two hours. A re-release was undertaken two months later and again, all units were sold straight away.
Europe is possibly the territory that would potentially make the best use of such a machine. There are legions of hobby coders, time-served from the days of the 8Bit computer, itching to get their hands on a PlayStation 2 game-making machine.
