Sony launches 22in TV with built-in PlayStation 2, 3D, internet connection

With Full HD 3D, Freeview HD and internet portals dominating the spec lists of TVs, Sony has decided to do something different with its Bravia KDL-22PX300: it has a built-in PlayStation 2.

Well, by built-in, we mean that the 22in TV’s base is a PlayStation 2, giving this TV a rather strange look. It’s also a little strange that Sony’s choosing this point to try and eke a little more life out of its PS2 product. The only reason we can think of is that integrating a PlayStation 3 would put the price up to an unrealistic level.

As it stands, the KDL-22PX300 is available for £200 from Richer Sounds making it only a little more expensive than same-size TVs from other big manufacturers.

The KDL-22PX300 is well kitted out, too. Its 1,366×768 resolution is ideal for 720p footage, while four HDMI inputs mean you can plug in tons of other devices. There’s Freeview built in, although not the newer Freeview HD.

Perhaps the best thing is the Bravia Internet TV portal is included, so you can connect the TV to your router via Ethernet and use the online services, including BBC iPlayer and LoveFilm. If you’ve been looking for a way to break out your old PS2 games, this TV could well be the model for you.
