Sony has 80% more crap exclusives than the GameCube and Xbox. True (give or take a few percent - I've made a very rough calculation in my mind)
Anyway, it seems Sony are also going along the path of temporary exclusives:
GTA III
GTA Vice City
State of Emergency
Prince of Persia
etc
He has an Xbox, which has most of the best games the PS2 has - can produce better graphics, audio and has a far superior controller. Has an inbuilt hard disk drive, has an inbuilt ethernet port for Xbox Live, and plays DVDs and CDs (even allows you to play CD music in games!).
So, unless there is one or a few games that really interests him, that aren't due for release on Xbox, I don't see any major incentive for him to get the Playstation 2.
It doesn't really matter anyway; even without it there's plenty to warrant Dark Mark's purchase of a PS2.

And GameCube, too.
But for now, it's exclusive to PS2.
