Hence may I know which is better?

This is what I have heard about PS2

Pros-Extremely good,reliable and superb gaming experience,Wide array of games.

X-Box 360.

Pros-High-Definition Gaming

Cons-Overheating of Gaming console,Small array of games.

Hence kindly help me to decided on which should i opt for?

Is it possible to play pirated games on X-Box 360

And kindly tell me other pros and cons of both these gaming consoles.

Answer 1

I would get an Xbox 360 out of the two choices since there will be many more games coming out for it later. ALso, you can play a bunch of regular Xbox games on it also, so there is a pretty wide range of choices, game wise. If you get an Xbox360, i would suggest buying Oblivion, as that one game, if you like RPGs, will give you probably 200+ hours of gameplay.

Answer 2

It really depends on how much money you have to spend and what types of games interest you. The ps2 is cheap now and all the games that are there will keep you busy for days! Not to mention the Ps2 games are dirt cheap now too.

The 360 just came out in Nov 05, so there isn't a lot of games for it. I prefer Xbox and 360 because I love console 1st person shooters. If you like role playing games and games with more of a Japanese influence, get the Playstation.

So...

Playstation 2: cheaper, more games to choose from(and games are also cheaper), has a wide variety of games to pick from, can play online

Xbox 360: better graphics, will be around longer (when the ps2 fades out), Xbox Live is an awesome service even though you pay for it.

And don't play pirated games. You just hurt the industry overall.

Answer 3

The PS2 for the exact reasons that you said. "Reliable, wide array of games, extremely good games". Don't buy the 360 for the exact reasons that you said, "Over-heating, small array of games" Get a PS2, or if you want an even better gaming experience, wait, save, get a PS3. I know that they're going to be way expensive, but there's a reason to that. As for the guy that suggested the Wii, laugh at him, no I take that back. Point and laugh at him.

Answer 4

ps2 is worthless so if you wanna be smart forget about that.
xbox 360 is amazing, whoever told you it has a small aray of games is a moron..it just came out, Oblivion alone is worth the price of the 360, about the overheating, they are getting it fixed with plans of new chips..my advice is to wait 7 months and then see what you think, this is a huge thing right now with games, all the new stuff is coming out, things will either change or stay the same with the 360 being the best..or maybe the nintendo wii..haha doubt it.

Answer 5

Xbox 360, because most of the Ps3 games will be on it, such as GTA 4. Plus the next generation of gaming is out now and thats the Xbox 360. Besides the Xbox 360 has so many good games, such as Call of Duty 2, Elder scrolls Oblivion and more.

Answer 6

Wait for the PS3 is really my opinion. The 360 will get more games and has some good looking ones. Biggest con is that it ISN'T backward compatiable. The PS3 will be backward compatiable to the PS2. Both PS2 and PS3 are backward compatiable to the orginal PS BUT you aren't likely to find many games for it unless you know a good used game place.

Answer 7

360

Answer 8

PS2 has more games .. but XBOX 360 has better graphics, it's more realistic and also more expensive, besides you can have the Windows Media Center on your XBOX that is cool and on top of that you have a hard drive meaning you don't need a memory card ..

Answer 9

u could still save up for a ps3 for the wait and then u could then experience the pros and cons of that. and if not just get a psp. because its portable wi fi internet. and its portable! and no u cant play pirated gamed for xbox 360
