Xbox Vs PS 3 How Do You Choose?
If you are a video game addict, what is said here will make little difference to you. Either you have already made your choice by this time, or you have already purchased both the Xbox and the PS3. This article is written for those who may still be considering the choice of Xbos vs Ps3.
If your consideration is for an Xbox 360 vs PS3, here is some information that may save you money. The PS3 80 and 160 are practically the same machines, the only difference being the larger hard drive and a different color. The PS3 will accept a hard drive designed for a notebook. These hard drives are currently selling for $80 or less for a 360g drive and easily interface with the PS3. If you choose the PS3, go with the PS3-80 and spend your money on the external hard drive. This is not an option for the Xbox.
When comparing prices for Xbox vs. PS3, you will find the Xbox in the $300-400 range and the PS3 is in the $400-500 dollar range depending upon which model you choose. If you want to connect your Xbox to the internet, you will need to buy an adapter made only for the Xbox. You cannot connect with cables or other Wi-Fi adapters. PS3 has built in Wi-Fi.
While each game console has its fans, most gamers find that performance is actually more dependant on software that it is on the console. The blockbuster type games have the extra programming to look good, while the less expensive games do not match up on either game. PS3 does require that you actually load many of the games onto the machine, where as Xbox allows you to play from the game dvd.
Game selections for each console have equaled out over the past year. If there is a game that you want to play that is available only on one system, then this may make your choice. Not every game is available for every console.
The subject of graphics is often addressed when making these decisions. Unfortunately, the choice of which game has the best graphics is also a matter of personal choice. Graphics are also a part of software, so some games will look better than others do. Go to your local electronics department and see which graphics look best to you to make your choice. Overall, the graphics seem to be close together.
Making the decision of Xbox vs PS3 is a matter of personal choice. The best advice is to find friends that have the games and try spending time on both the Xbox and the PS3. Play games with both systems. If you must make the choice between the two, then choose the one that you enjoy playing the most. Make the choice of the system that offers the games you want to play. Read ahead to see if new releases that you will find interesting are going to be offered on your system. Plan your purchase and enjoy your game.
