ceiling for finished room in basement

I have a room in the basement that the previous owner had finished. Walls are real wood v pines boards and the ceiling is 2' x 4' drop ceiling panels. To say the least whoever installed the ceiling was either drunk or running from the law it looks awful They did a terrible job in joining the ceiling grids and I just don't like it. Plus the proportion of the 2x4 panels does not compliment the room size. I do like the ability of removing a tile/s if I ever have to get to wiring/plumbing/HVAC. But there isn't that much installed over this part of the basement. So if I replace what is there I could go with 2' x 2' drop ceiling or conventional drywall which would be much cheaper. Because of the wood walls and the wood style laminate floor we have picked I don't want to put wood on the ceiling. Any other ideas for ceiling material that is not too expensive ? The room is aprox. 12' x 20'.
