PS2 vs. PS3

[Susan Scott]

I think about it this way – PS3 games are so expensive, I think that many patrons may own the PS3 (it’s $299) now but may rent games for it because they can’t afford to buy every game they’d like (myself included). To me, it’s the most amazing service we can provide – access to games they might not otherwise be able to play. PS2 games are cheap enough that you could buy some of the classics or hard to find games (like Ico or Fatal Frame) that patrons may have trouble finding. Still, I’d go with PS3 and xBox 360…both have great exclusives and if a game is multiplatform, get it on the xBox 360 (larger install base).
