x-box or ps2

I would say that the x-box is much better than the ps2. Many of the games around these days are available on both consoles, and the graphics are of a much better quality on the x-box so I would advise you to go for that one. It's also worth considering that with the release of the x-box 360 many of the original x-box games are plummeting in price. Happy gaming!

well the PS2 is much popular than the XBOX so get it don't hesitate :)

I started a similar discussion a few days ago but I included the Wii in the discussion. The 3 responses I got voted for the Wii because it is kinda "new" in the market since the PS3 and Xbox are in essence the same as the old ones but upgraded versions. Until now, I haven't decided what to buy yet until now but I'm trying to save up for the PS3 since its a whopping $600.
