Either one is fine, but when you buy the games please make sure they are appropriate for his age. In the corner sections of games there is a number or a letter. The numbers basically mean for that age and up example. This game is for 3 and up.

The letters stand for E Everyone, T Teenagers 13 and up, and M for Mature 18 or up. Example

So please this is the important part, more important than which one, cause a lot of parents get games like Grand Theft Auto for their kids, and it's rated for M or 18 and up.

Or just listen to the other user and get him something like an intrument or something that will be helpful.

Im a hard gamers with PC and Xbox. for gift to your son, I would suggest don't give any console games, will be addicted. instead give him a guitar , piano or any other musical instruments.

as a young boy he should concentrate on his studies.

You can't go wrong with either. It's about the same argument along the lines of BMW or Mercedes, Accord or Camry, HP or Sony, etc. Diehard fans are on both sides of the equation. Have to admit though that xbox might have a slim edge, says my son. I know my didn't really help you make a sound decision, but it might be worth asking your kid which game system most of his friends have. This is usually helpful. Common platform systems help sharing the games sometimes.
