PS2 Still have a large Library of great games and a good vfm entertainment center . the graphics are awsome on normal TVs as the resoultion is PAL or NTSC only.

You should definitely go for PS2 if you have a budget of around 6k. It's a kick-ass gaming console with huge library of games. It doesn't run many formats but you can hack it easily to run most of the formats.

PS2 looks great on a normal TV. You need not worry about that.

You can play all divx,avi and mp3 format by modding your ps2 and using sms player.

It does support pendrive and usb hdd..check this out :
