Thank you, Chris, that's very helpful. I noticed Paradigm was very popular, but of course, I'd never heard of them before. I looked up a dealer, and there's one about 40 miles away, so that is completely doable for a listen. I also noticed a brand new car and home audio store has opened up here...
Then let's give the newbie some suggestions. My mother and I are complete newbies at this sort of thing. In the past, we haven't had a lot of money for anything but the essentials, in fact, we did not even own a cheap cassette player until about 8 years ago. But now my mother has graduated...
Isn't Interact having some sort of trouble? I hear Datel, the actual maker of the Gameshark, which is called the Action Replay in Europe, doesn't want Interact to have the license to make Gamesharks anymore. They've decided to make Action Replay here in the States itself under its true name...

Well, I used the Pro Racer 2 for the PS2. Same concept, I guess, but I personally didn't like it. I found my left hand got tired very quickly trying to turn the car (tried with NFS: Hot Pursuit 2) and it took quite a bit of getting used to to do precision turns. However, it stressed my hand so...
As much of a Playstation2 junkie as I am (41 games and counting) a Gamecube might be the best choice for the age he is now. If he were older, I'd say PS2 hands down, there are many, many, many more PS2 games out there, and of high-quality. The gamecube has excellent games tuned more towards the...
Well I saw an Xbox bundled with Sega GT 2002 and Jet Set Radio Future yesterday for $200. Microsoft must be really crazy, they're already losing loads on the XBox.
