Gaming - PS2 or 360 offline? - View Post

What kind of games do you like to play? Will you have HD in the future? Will you have online in the future?

Also, the PS2 is very close to the end of its life span.  It's still getting a few games but most of them are probably not ones you are going to want to play.  Ever.

PS2 isn't a bad choice because it does have a huge catalog, but it's a near dead system.  If you do end up changing your mind in the future and get a HD TV or start going online, you will be stuck with a non-HD console that isn't getting any new games and that doesn't have any online games unless you want to buy FFXI and the accompanying hard drive.

The 360 does have a good offline catalog of games and even things like Gears of War or Halo 3 can still be enjoyed offline.  I rarely play games online and I still enjoy all of those games.

 

 

Oh yeah, I would eventually have an HD and online in the future. But not this year for sure. Maybe in 2010. And I am getting bored today. But if I make up my mind about the 360, I am afraid I will never buy a PS2, ever... and will never know what I missed.
