Which gadget Should I Take??????????

Hi Frnds,

i'm going to buy a gadget and i'm confuse tht i should buy PS2 or PSP...........guys help plzzz

which one i should buy????????five a reason also............plzzzz help??

T

Mention budget.

It depends if you want small screen and portability or Large screen at home

u shud get psp as games for ps2 have nearly stopped coming. games for the psp wil still be coming fresh. although if u want cheaper games,(u know what i mean) u shud get the ps2. the psp has also features like storing music and small video clips on the memory card and has a game battery life of about 7-8 hours on full charge

If you have money, get XBOX 360

Between ps2 and psp, I choose PSP coz apart from being a handheld gaming device, it can play movies, music, photos with awesome quality

If you want to play on a big screen, go for PS2.

yeah thats right xbox360 all the way

I have a X360....its awesome (the best gaming console on planet [not in terms of power bt VFM and support]).

I have a PS2.......it was awesome

I have a PSP.....it is the best portable console.

Wrong! You can put in .ISOs of d/led games on PSP memory stick and play from it. So, if u have a broadband connection...the games will be free!!

And if u dont have a good connection than u can find a store which will do it for u. Here, putting 1 .ISO costs 90/- bucks

I just got a PSP...no regrets.

The basic issues are of course the portability/big screen and the price.

Any other console will require the purchase of a good LCD tv too if you want to really use its full potential(unless you already have one)... thats a cool 45000 above the price of the console.

also check the availability of games... those you want to play may not be avl for the psp... but i assure you those that are are very addictive!

How about a Wii for pure fun!!!

1. Wii games are expensive
2. Wii has no "serious" games
3. Wii makes you buy a new controller for every other game it releases
4. Wii has no hardcore FPS games like Unreal Tournament, GTA IV, etc
5. Wii is quite weak as a machine

How can you say all this makes it fun ? Just because of a handful of family games and mario, how does it become pure fun ?

DISCLAIMER :-This is my sole opinion.

Wii has lame grafix with less games which are cartoonish and hardly available in India. Moving around the control all the time you play will give you a pain in the hand. Service will be bad in India. Hardware is outdated. Games are g@y.

u said right wii games look like cartoonish no reality .........no graphics like word in it........

Dude. seriously, XBOX 360 starts at $200.

XBOX360 Arcade: $200
XBOX360 20Gb: $259
XBOX360 Pro: $300

^^Thats a subsidised price sold in the US, Japan and EU. Not applicable for India.

Between PSP & PS2, for me, I would prefer the PS2 any day.Unless you are not much into portable gaming, the PS2 would be a fine choice.Also if you haven't played much on a PS2 before then the library of titles can easily kick PSP's butt into oblivion.But then again it's your choice & money.How much in total are you willing to spend?

Go for PS2 at this time at Rs 6500/- you may get it a little cheaper (its a sony showroom price at my city.) As with this you can play many many games even new ones. Its also one of the best Movie/Music player available.

Start saving a fixed amount every month and then buy a PS3 in near future. And after that use PS2 as a DVD player.

For PSP I can't back you up much as I never intended to buy one.It is the best portable gaming solutions out there but PS2 is what I would still suggest.Like I said if you're playing for the first time then PS2 has a lot of games to offer.The range of titles hasn't stopped coming but no new exclusives are released.Only next gen console ports.But if you look at it's previous library then that is something to look forward to.

i had a PS2 for a while and yesterday i got the PSP..... and let me tell you the comparison ur asking for is not logical.

Both devices are ment for different purposes. If ur a serious gammer and like to sit down and do hard core gaming...PS2 is the way to go. Hrs used to fly like seconds when i used to game on the PS2.

The PSP....well i got it to use it more as a media player. Though it is not at powerfull as the PS2...it has its own advantages. 1) Its the latest in the market so the games will keep coming for a long time while the PS2 games seem to be pausing for the moment. 2.) it makes a great media player and a portable video player where ever u want it.

Both the devices are ment for diff ppl. Now its upto you to decide wht u want!

Are you nuts ?? X360 Core Edition costs only 17.8-18.5k and plus 1-1.2k if u get it modded.......Its the PS3 which costs 24,999/-

18K for Xbox 360 ? The last time I checked it was 15K. Must have increased. A LITTLE.
25K for PS3 ? The last time I checked it was 35K. Must have decreased. A LOT.

Why to go for psp. I think its a waste of money. Everything will be limited by PSP. And think of your traveling time only few hours a day and on that most of the time you will not be in a position to play games.

Gaming needs little peace of mind so that you get more peace of mind in return.

Rest is on you dear.

Well here in my city its 17.5k

.

And 24,999 is the official Sony MRP for PS3's lowest model (with 40GB HDD I think). Check it out!

WHY ARE YOU MISLEADING EVERYONE ?? FIRST IN THAT WHICH GAME TO GO FOR THREAD AND NOW HERE. Do you understand that our posts make a lot of impact on a normal consumer's mind.

.

PSP is THE best portable gaming machine. Its grafix meats PS1's quality. It has got some great games which you can pass days playing

. It has great features llike a music and a movies player, Wi-Fi, etc. You can mod it to hell with homebrew softwares, etc.

Dude, you seriously need to think and re-think before posting BS.

my frnd got it for just 3.5k second hand.... (with full RROD)

and about 2k to remove it...

total XBOX 360 with 20GB HDD, One Wireless Controler And one wired controler only for 5.5k

lol

Ok i dont want to be sounding like a fanboi, but seriously...

buying a psp (or any other console) was never one of my priorities...i was gifted one a few days back by my better half.
i' ve been gaming on a relatively high end pc for ages now and am used to the bells and whistles of resolution/fsaa/ani f and what have you that come with the latest games... i was playing mass effect and hellgate london when this gadget came to me...
two games- tiger woods pga tour 09, and nfsmw5-1-0 are all i have for it now...relatively tame/dated tiles, some might say...

...but i havent switched on my pc for days now!!
gaming on the psp is seriously addictive!so to the dude from nainital above who bashed it... man, dont knock it till you've tried it.

Every one has its own taste. Big game Big screen.

By the way that was my personal opinion.
Take everyone's views and then the logic that appeals you most go by that. But believe me after PSP you will be so addictive to gaming that you will have to buy a XBoX or PS3 or may be A good gaming machine with no limit budget.

i think u said right but hw's the graphics of PSP games dude
i m mostly addicted to PSP but some said me to take PS2 so i was confused.....

Why don't you try either one out at some friends place or something then decide? I mean it's upto one's personal experience & not on others.If you like it & enjoy it then I can't see what's stopping you from buying it.PS2 has been there for ages now & is the best selling console in the history of gaming.The titles are large but are soon biting the dust.PSP is a handheld console & purely for portable gaming & entertainment.So if you are one of those who loves gaming on portable devices then this is your way to go.

For people like me who have tried both PSP & PS2, I chose the PS2 as I am not much into portable gaming.I can't handle the analog stick on the PSP properly.Games on the PS2 still look really good.I alternate between PC & PS2 regularly.But I have the most amount of fun on the PS2 as holding a controller & relaxing on your couch to play is something which is really comfortable for me.Big screen experience is another good thing.Just pop the DVD in & play.When you start God of War I & II the whole experience is completely different.

So check what you are comfortable with & then pick it up accordingly.That's what I feel.
