My recommendation is to forget the console, and put
together a gaming PC.
Better intelligence to the games, and immensely greater selection and
usefullness.
With the PS2 he'll be able to play new games for how many years without
upgrading the hardware? OTOH, how often do you need to upgrade a gaming PC
to play the latest stuff? I decided consoles were the way to go a few
years ago.
