We've got a PS2 (got it for Christmas last year from my brother in law!) and it's great! It plays DVD's great.....well, I mean not as good as a high-end DVD player, but it doesn't skip or anything!
As for the X-box....don't get me started! It's made by Microsoft...and yes, it does have a hard drive in it, but big deal! The graphics aren't much better than PS2 (from what I've seen anyway) and a bunch of the games are already available for PS2. My husband is the biggest Microsoft-hater out there (to the point he wants me to change my email account from Hotmail....I'm not doing that...I've had the account way too long...I like it!) But he was telling me something the other day that the X-box won't do good (and not just cause it's made by Microsoft!) because of it's inability to upgrade or something like that. I'm not sure on the specifics....I'll have to ask him again.....
But for now, I say go with the PS2! You're boyfriend will be very happy......a gaming system AND a DVD player! You'll be the greatest girlfriend ever!!!!
