    Two words: Hell Yeah!

    Reason 1: Prince range is in between PS3 and WII but games are better than Wii and not that much different than PS3.
    Reason 2:Quite a number of Romulation members have one. We can start playing Live!

    But seriously, MGS4 is a freakin sweet game. And Im sure there are other moderately good games for PS3. Not to mention it has GTAIV as well.

    Yes Yes Yes...
    You'll get all those games...
    And countless more FPS's...

    Get a Wii if you want to play Mario Party for the rest of your life...

    Get a PS3 if you want to play MGS4 and Killzone 2(*snigger*)

    I think the PS3 is more powerful than the 360, although the 360 has better quality games (I don't know if you get me). Plus, the online on the 360 is way better.

    So, my vote goes for ''Yes, get a 360.''. :)

    Don't be stupid, trading in a PS2 for a 360 would be a bad idea, the PS2 has a much larger library of good games of different genres.

    Also, the PS2 is a console easier to chip than hell. It saves a lot of money.

    The PS2 is a strong system. It has a gigantic library. How much longer can it last, I mean it's lasted this far something was done right. The 360 is the best at the moment. If you add some a lot of kick a** games for PS3 it might do better. But thats me. Final decision is yours.

    Get the XBOX 360. I have one and it ROCKS. It also has a lot of games the Wii doesn't have. Besides the games it has a lot of other features though no one else seems to use them... But anyway it has much better graphics and games than the Wii. Trust me I have both; I NEVER play the Wii but I find myself playing the 360 quite frequently...

    But if you get a PS3 doesn't it also support PS2 games? Although I heard that retro compatibility is not good on PS3... Is that true?

    Some PS3s support PS2 games, the UK 60GB does while the UK 40GB doesn't (they cut PS2 support to cut costs and sell it cheaper)

    I hope they tell you it's compatible or not before you purchase it...

    Def go for the 360 if you havnt already got it, And for the best place in NZ try cash converters first lol, but otherwise the wharehouse is usually the cheapest, followed by stores like Harvey norman and noel leeming if you pay cash and haggle the shit outta the guy (lol thats what I did). I hate to say it but stay away from the games stores like EB and Gamesman since they are the most expensive, though if your looking to trade in then keep an eye on them because they do have some good deals for tradeins every now and then.

    He hasn't gotten it yet, I'd say Dicksmith Electronics is all right, stupid returns policy, but they often have consoles etc. $2 cheaper than everywhere else lol, but The Warehouse is always good, Where everyone gets a Bargain. He lives in a barely unknown city, so there probably isn't a Harvey Norman there (there's none here). You can easily just get it second hand from Cash Converters (the one here is gone now :() or off TradeMe or something, make sure to always check the Feedback of course.
