Brock Manson 0 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 DS, some good original games you can just pick up and play. PSP too expensive just to use for games tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckypierre 0 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 depends on what you want. I'd go for the xbox if thats the only one I'd have. Games are ridiculously cheap now. Will be able to pick up most stuff off ebay for about a fiver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo 133 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Go for a PSP if you want to look at reflections of yourself in its super-reflective-mirror-screen TM 111128[/snapback] True but its the only drawback with the machine, but it only effects it out side in bright sunshine, so that shouldn't be a problem !

luckyluke 1 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 The original Playstation is the best console ever IMO. The range of games for it was just stupendous, particularly as smaller companies could still produce quality games as well as the daddy. For example, football games. The PS had FIFA, ISS, Actua Soccer, Three Lions, Michael Owen's World League Soccer ("'ave foon") that one where you just controlled a single player, a sensible soccer remake (albeit a shit one). Now we just have Pro Evo and Fifa. Both of which are brilliant, but the variety in styles of play before was immense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zathras 234 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 The original NES was the best game system ever. FACT. Sega Genesis was damn close though. And of the 'new generation' of consoles, the original playstation is still the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
