Y’know how sometimes you just have a bad day. Maybe the photocopier was broken, or the canteen was only serving beef stroganoff. You’re in a bad mood, and if someones dares to probe you with even the simplest of questions, you respond in a physically violent manner shouting “Shut up you worthless individual! Shut up!”

Well maybe that’s just me, but someone at Sony evidently got up on the wrong side of bed, when they responded to IGN’s PSP 2 rumour in a sarcastic manner.

Oh, you want to see the response? You’ll have to hit the jump for that kind of luxury.

When IGN ran a rumor, backed by “several credible sources”, about a PSP successor that boasted a multi-touch interface, Sony responded in style.

“Clearly, being a quiet time of year, many, what we thought to be credible websites, are making up stories about PSP2, and how it allows you to teleport across the globe, travel through time, and will be powered by the horns of baby rhinoceroses.

Hopefully, you can sense a mild tone of sarcasm, which should hopefully indicate how ‘on the money’ IGN are. Needless to say, we don’t comment on rumor or speculation, but this is nonsense.”

Hey, I thought we were the sarcastic ones around here!
