PS2 or Xbox360 - Which one you pick?

[newway01]

Hi guys, which of these consoles you will go with? Playstation 2 or XBox360?

I'm not talking about PS3. Just the pretty old PS2. Comparing graphics and availability of games, Xbox tops it?

Reason I'm asking is because , I wanna buy one of these..A Modded PS2 is available for 2600rs and Xbox360 Jasper Edition for 3000rs..

With the availability of GTA4, NFS Shift and other new generation games on Xbox360, Is it the better option to choose from? Or go with old PS2 games

As I owned a PS1 during childhood, I fall in love with the Playstation series..

[vamsi_krishna]

Jasper for 3000bucks is a hands down deal.

Its not a fair comparison between PS2 and Xbox360. Congrats for getting the Xbox much better choice.

Now what is Jasper?

It is a revised model of Xbox 360, with a 65nm xenon and 65nm Xenos and with lower TDP. As a result.. no RRoD.

M sorry but can u provide the full forms...m a noob in such terminology...

 

[newway01]

RROD - Red Ring of Death which is referred to as death for normal Xbox360 consoles. one with Falcon chip and all are prone to become RROD easily!!!!

Xbawks, the way to go. PS2's too old, way too old. RRoD's a trouble if you want DRM-free games.

Xenon= Xbox 360 CPU
Xenos= Xbox 360 GPU
TDP= Thermal Design Power
RRoD= Red Ring of Death. A nick name for classic Hardware failure in xbox 360

Xbox 360 for sure.

RRoD's a trouble if you want DRM-free games.

He is getting Jasper edition so RRoD is a little of concern.

 

[Sarath]

I cant believe you dont know RROD?
Well PS3s suffer from YROD. Thats rare though.

DRM free? You mean...

 

[NVIDIAGeek]

Xbox 360 for sure.

He is getting Jasper edition so RRoD is a little of concern.

I meant that if it happens and he has ossum Rs. 1499 games, he can get it repaired/replaced. Err... can that even be done in India?

 

[newway01]

Well PS3s suffer from YROD.

Its YLOD for PS3

Yellow ???? of death

 

[vamsi_krishna]

^ Yellow Light of Death.

Xbox 360 is way to go.

but in and around 2 years a new Playstation and a Xbox are coming.

If you wanna make a long term investment(i.e no new upgrade for 5 yrs and above) then my reccomendation is to wait.
