Cheaper but Better with the Xbox 360 Game Console

Sphere: Related Content
Even though it is two and a half years old, Microsoft's Xbox 360 game console still produces the best graphics even though it is twelves months older than its two competitors, Nintendo's Wii and Sony's Playstation 3, and has the largest game selection. Because of its relative age, you can also find the Xbox 360 at a tantalizing price nowadays. With support for 1080p resolution, you'll be blown away by the unprecedented amount of realism in games like The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and Fallout 3. If you're still on the fence, the benefits listed below should be more than enough to persuade you that the Xbox 360 game console is superior to the Playstation 3 and Wii.

The Price to Performance Ratio

The Wii may be the cheapest console on the market right now, but it lacks the graphical capabilities and blockbuster game selection that the Xbox 360 game console enjoys. Add to that the fact that you can purchase the base model of the Xbox 360, or arcade version, for about the price of the Wii, and the only reason that you might want to opt for the Wii would be for some great titles like Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Resident Evil 4. However, there are many more games not available for the Wii than for it, so the choice comes down to your taste in games. The Playstation 3 is comparable to the Xbox 360 game console in terms of graphics, although its game selection is even worse than the Wii's. Most of the games available for the Playstation 3 are also available for the Xbox 360, one of the most notable exceptions being Metal Gear Solid 4. One of the primary reasons to pick up the Playstation 3 is for its BD drive capable of playing next-generation Blu-ray discs, but this is more appealing for the high definition movies than for the games.

If you want to get the full package, then turn to the Xbox 360 premium console. You'll pay $50 more, but you'll receive Netflix support, backwards compatibility with most original Xbox games, and a decent 60 Gb hard drive. Netflix will allow you to rent movies by downloading them to the hard drive, and then you can watch them over the course of a few days on your own time. With the Xbox 360's DVD playback, audio CD, and Internet capabilities, you'll find that the Xbox 360 game console is a home theater in a single package. With the largest game selection out of all of the next gen systems and the best graphics short of multi-thousand dollar PCs, the Xbox 360 game console is the best value for its price between the Wii and Playstation 3.
