The Sony PlayStation 2 was, and still is an absolute classic; so what better way to honour your beloved console than to mod it. Queue the PlayStation 2 portable.

This cracking effort from English modder techknott encases the relatively bulky dimensions of the PS2 into compact form - complete with analogue and digital controls, and shoulder buttons on the back. Game discs are loaded on the underside of the machine.



The practicalities of playing a game on this meaty machine, when out and about, might well be in doubt, as it doesn't come with its own battery pack, but it's for sale (after the chap who commissioned pulled out) so if anyone's interested give him a shout. You can take a look at this fine example of workmanship in action in the video above.
