Console choice

As much as I dislike the PS2, I must concur: it would be a splendid choice.

Also check your local console game store--they have factory refurb PS2 units that are that are really cheap plus they come with a limited warranty.

You're not going to get that from an individual, so be careful.

Also, there are two models of the PS2. The older models have a mechanical slide out CD tray and are a couple of inches thick. The newer models are much thinner and only have a flip up lid to cover the CD tray. I have the newer model and it has given me no problems for two years now, but then I don't use it that much since I am not a huge console gamer. Still there are a ton of PS 2 games available for half price or less and like Fragony said, they are still releasing them.

Probably one of the reasons that the selection of games for the PS 3 is still so poor.
