So let me ask you...

Do i buy an Xbox or a PS2?

Not a serious gamer at all, just want something I can use when have mates round?

Only want 3 or 4 games too, whats the best single player games and multi-player games?

And which is better soccer game, Pro Evolution Soccer or FIFA. Never played Pro, last one I played was FIFA 2000!!

Thanks all.

Deffo an X-box if you only want a few games......plus has four ports built in,better graphics.It`s main downfall is lack of choice of games but if u only want a few it doesn`t matter.
U can get games cheap at the mo` with the new consoles coming out soon......for instance Tiger Woods 2005 and Desert Storm 2 for £9.99 and Project Snowblind for £4.99 (at ToysRUs).I would go for a Pro Evo.......but a slightly earlier...maybe 3 because the differences aren`t that massive unless u`re a total footie junkie.....but the price is different (about £8 compared to £30).The whole Fifa game series suffers from the same probs as the early ones (the ball sticking to your foot etc).

U really don`t have to spend over a tenner for a good game.I`d check somewhere like IGN.com or Gamespot.com for reviews and go for the belters from a year or so back.
The recent ones are no better and cost £32.99 or similar.

Your in for a treat because there`s some great games out there if you`re starting from scratch at reasonable prices too.
