My first console...

ALLI · 5 Apr 2007 at 22:53

Never wanted to get a console, but i really like the driving games on my mates ps2 and xbox.

so, for racing games. ps2 or xbox?

can leave my pc for work stuff and a console for gaming. im sure most of the games are on budget labels so i can get a decent batch.

question is...which one?

oh yeah forza motorsport (is it?)

i saw that ad a while back and was tempted with an xbox then. project gothat looks nice too.

apart from gran turismo (which gets boring) and maybe colin mcrae... what other driving games are out there (both platforms?)

i think £100 should get me a console and 4 or 5 games and a couple of controllers shouldn't it?

sounds like a winner.

a friend of mine is a manger at gamestation. reckon second hand is ok? seems to be a lot of faulty xbox's on ebay - slightly concerning. doesn't appear to be quite so many ps2's there. spose it's swings and roundabouts.

I was thinking of a core system but won't I miss out on the hard drive? Or can this be an "add on" at some point?

So the XBOX 360 core is backwards compat, so I could play forza and pg2 without a problem?
