New into gaming and with so much to choose with the Sony’s PS3, Xbox 360 and Nintendo’s Wii all competing hard for your attention – I’d suggest to still go for the PS2! Sony has cut the PS2’s price to about $130, down from a high of $300, to entice casual gamers, kids and beginners like you!

So the PS2 has a new lease on life and is selling well this late in the game. Chances are that it will out sell it’s latest version the PS3 well into 2008. So makers are beefing up offerings of family-oriented titles, kids’ games, and movie tie-ins to cash-in on this large revenue that casual gamers bring in.

So while the hard-core gamer is busy on the latest versions PS2 is raking in a lot of money while its rivals, Microsoft’s original Xbox and Nintendo’s GameCube, are no longer in production!  So go figure!
