Xbox 360: How It Compares to its Competitors
In recent years, the so-called console war between Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo was probably at its fiercest level because of the launching of the original Xbox. Of course, it was designed to compete head-on with the Sony Playstation 3 popularity and the emerging consumer awareness for Nintendo's GameCube. With the launching of the Xbox successor - the Xbox 360 - the console war just reached new levels of competitiveness although it must be said that Xbox won the war for about a year after its release.
Of course, Sony and Nintendo will not take this lying down and they both released their seventh generation gaming consoles - the Playstation 3 and Wii, respectively. This time, gamers have a more difficult time choosing between the three models since each console has its own unique strengths and weaknesses. To make things easier here is a comparison between Xbox 360 and its two competitors in terms of titles, graphics and controller.
For the titles available, Xbox 360 wins hands down when it comes to the quantity of games available, with approximately a thousand choices. In fact, Xbox 360 has the most number of exclusive titles although the Playstation 3 offers more exclusive franchises. Plus, the Xbox 360 still has an edge over Playstation 3 in terms of the highest number of titles with positive ratings. Customers and critics alike even point that the adventure fighting games in Playstation 3 are very similar to those in Xbox 360.
The Wii, however, is competing in a different way, focusing its attention on family friendly games rather than violent shooters. The titles offered by the Wii are so varied it's like comparing apples and oranges. So, the battle between consoles must be taken to another front.
When you look at graphics, both the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3 are almost cheek to cheek. Some people still insist that the Playstation 3 has the edge with more powerful graphic and audio components than the Xbox 360, but in the end it will all come down to what you, personally, think good graphics are.
The Wii, unfortunately, cannot compete with either the Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 on the graphics front. The Nintendo-manufactured gaming console does not appear to focus on this area for some reason or another. Thus, if you want excellent graphics with outstanding audio, then either the Xbox 360 or the Playstation 3 is the ideal choice. Take note, too, that Playstation 4 offers Blu-ray support, an advantage over the Xbox 360.
For controller quality, the Wii has a very good chance of winning with its motion controller which can mimic the movement of the user, with bats to swing and buttons to push. However, the Xbox 360 offers more options than the Wii, with the availability of either wired or wireless controllers.
The final verdict: The many features of Xbox 360 continue to make it the leader in the industry. However, this does not mean that the console war is over, far from it. In fact, it may be just beginning all over again. But for now, the Xbox 360 rules the field. - 23806
