Well it certainly isn't future proof, as it'll be 'obsolute' in a mere 3 years or so, as the PS2 aparently is now. If the games are new to him, they're new. Why isn't it fair for that comparsion? It's what is available to him now. Sure we can project what the 360 may get down the line, but regardless, it's highly unlikely that'll reach the amount of quality games the PS2 has. Plus, in a few years time, which would be required to play much of the PS2's quality library, the 360 will be much cheaper as will many of its current library. I agree with you, the 360 does have some great RPG's and adventure games. Only difference is the money you'd spend on buying 1 good RPG on the 360 could buy you 3-4 great ones on PS2. I understand the argument that many would feel that the games would seem outdated, but as he mentioned before he doesn't care much for top of the line graphics anyhow. |
No new games will stop being made in about 4-5 years,PS2 will be DEAD,No new pS2 games will be coming out by 2010 or even mid 09.
He will eventually get a HDTV and go online gaming,so 360 is perfect,and even if he dosetn care about graphcis so what it helps the game,ie better draw distance.
Its up to the OP,Does he want future proof Xbox 360 with good selection of games and new AAA games being made everyday,or PS2 system with cheap RPG and no new AAA games being made.
