Word on the street this afternoon (thanks Eurogamer) tell us that a port of hit WipEout Pulse has been readied for the - but can't decide whether to release it or not.

Apparently, the port - a simple conversion given the proximity of the two platforms - has been in the works for ages, but it is now unclear whether the PS2 will get Sony's futuristic or not.

"There are over 9.5m PS2s in the and we will continue to support this large userbase with software on an ongoing basis," teased Sony in a new statement this afternoon.

"Of course, we need to make a business decision that there will be sufficient demand for a particular product, but we see franchises such as and Buzz still selling very well - for example SingStar Abba which launched in December proved very successful. With regards to other titles we will judge each on an individual basis and make decisions accordingly."

Mysterious.
