PS2 Still have a large Library of great games and a good vfm entertainment center . the graphics are awsome on normal TVs as the resoultion is PAL or NTSC only.

You should definitely go for PS2 if you have a budget of around 6k. It's a kick-ass gaming console with huge library of games. It doesn't run many formats but you can hack it easily to run most of the formats.

PS2 looks great on a normal TV. You need not worry about that.
