Hey People,
Planning to buy a game console and trying which one should you buy when there are many options available.The most common questions while deciding your new gaming console can be:
- Which one is value for money ?
- Which has better graphics ?
- Above all which one is better ?
What I am trying to tell you is that, these are two different concepts altogether. What you need to decide is which one suits your gaming needs?
Price – To start with XBOX 360 starts around 350 USD where as Nintendo Wii console with 1 pair of remote and nunchucks is available for 199 USD. Again there can not be any comparisons made just on the basis of price.
Game Market & Development – When it comes to gaming experience, Xbox has large variety of games and targets audience from small kids to core gamers, whereas Wii games are mostly limited to couple games, family games but very few hardcore games. Though the number of game developers and downloads for Wii are increasing day by day . Motion Sensor – Taking about the motion sensors, Nintendo Wii is a clear winner here because of sheer brilliance of the technology being used. Xbox 360 sensors are far more feeble than Wii . Wii has definitely taken motion gaming to a new level all together .
Graphics – Do I need to even say that ? Presently nothing is anywhere even closer to Xbox’s crystal clear and such vivid graphics. Xbox brings your gaming experience leap ahead of others just because of its real time high definition graphics. When it comes to Wii, graphics performance is not that bad as people generally think, what they talk about is motion sensing games. There are variety of other options available in Wii. I have played fifa 10 and Resident Evil on Wii and the graphics are very sharp and much like that in Play Station 2.
Online & Multiplayer Gaming - When it comes to multimedia playback or online gaming, Xbox 360 supports multiple file formats including mp3, one can use it to listen to music, see images, do live video chat etc. Online gaming option in Xbox360 is diverse but comes with a subscription. When it comes to Wii you can still download music and movies but what’s missing is the online gaming part.
Original Image linkRed ring of death - Well I think this only fact can make Wii a clear winner for few of you. Your console will never crash. when it comes to Xbox 360 there are congregated problems of crashing . There is an accusation that games make you lazy . Try Wii and you need not to worry about the thought that playing games make you lethargic and effects your health. Wii also has Wii-fit which is complete aerobics cardio exercises that you will always need. Now when it comes to deciding the better of two I will again menton that it depends on your personal choice. if you are fancy about high definition graphics, online features go for Xbox 360 . But if you prefer real time gaming experience and want to try something that you have not played before Wii is for you.
ENJOY !!!
Would be great if you can do a PS3 vs. XBox360 review.
Yes…. PS3 vs. XBox360 & PS3 vs. Wii
However, if you are a casual gamer go for Wii. If you are hardcore gamer then consider PS3.
PS3 has LOTS of games in comparison to XBox360.
fine guys .. i am writing on ps3 vs Xbox 360 for you
Hmm…
Positives for Wii- Good for casual gamers… Btw I hate you casual gamers you destroyed Nintendo. Has less graphic capabilities then xbox 360 or ps3. Has plenty of great hardcore games- the big problem with Wii is that most of the heavily tv advertised games are the gay wii sports and wii fit crap leading people to believe that’s all the wii has. Trust me the Wii actually has good games including call of duty games and of course Zelda. Heck zelda is enough reason to buy a wii itself lol. Once you play a wii shooter with wii remote pointing instead of just an analog stick, you won’t mind the fact the graphics are worse. Oh yeah, also if you have a wii u pretty much have every nintendo console. nes, snes, and n64 games available for download, and you can play like the 3 or 4 good gamecube games… Best of all? FREE WIFI!
Negatives-Not as good graphics as 360 and ps3, though at the very least they are the third best graphics of any console. The advertisers are freaking idiots! If they would advertise zelda and shooter games then more of the hardcore gamers would realize how awesome the wii is. Have to be careful about the games you buy, half of them are lame minigames trying to scream out at casual gamers to buy them. Overall, I think the wii is better then 360, due to such a low price and the fact that xbox is almost obsolete with a ps3, however a ps3 is better, just more expensive.
Thanks for the inputs David.
awesome, I like it! It made me visualize great fun that I had last month during our trip to Latvia and Estonia, when visiting Fixman playground with my nephews and wondering all around those nice play towers , one of my best vacation memories.
Oh my GOD! now there is a excellent way to fix your RROD I just found out last thursday. Check my link posted. If it does not work try rrod-fix-pro dot com.
Really excellent post, I loved reading it. It had a number of excellent information and facts. I am bookmarking this website.
@Call of Duty Black Ops News thank you so much … its very inspiring for me
FYI, “Call of Duty Black Ops news” is computer-generated spam.
Don’t get me wrong, x-box 360 games and graphics are pretty awesome…
But after getting the red-ring while in the middle of a game…
+ the problems everyone else had.. I don’t trust Microsoft anymore.
Playstation is just over priced end of story. And the Wii seems more like a prototype system. I guess I could always just upgrade my computer…
I am having both consoles.But Xbox 360 elite with kinect is more fun.I am a hacker so i created a driver for kinect which will make it able to run on windows.
Wow that’s nice !
I notice tons of people bashing the Nintendo Wii and claiming that the Xbox 360 or the PS3 is better. In my opinion no it isn’t. Although the PS 3 and the Xbox 360 may be higher in graphics it lacks in fun game play. To me it seems all there is to play on the other 2 consoles are shooters which is the EXACT reason I do not own an Xbox 360 or a PS3. There is more to gaming than blood and guts @ 1080p. Plus when it comes down to it a computer beats them both hands down. This is the other reason I do not own a PS3 or Xbox 360. If I want high resolution with pixel pushing power I have a 480 GTX with an I7-2600k and 8 gigs of ram. If I wanted to play COD Black Ops I would rather do it on my PC and on top of that I can get and create any map I want whereas Xbox 360 users have to leech from computer users which create the maps. Nintendo Wii and older Nintendo games have a higher replay value as the old Marios, Zeldas, and some other top rated games keep selling to this day even though some are more than a couple decades old, Xbox and PS can’t say this. My Wii graphics may not be the bees-knees but I much rather have fun gameplay than pixel pushing power.
xbox kinect is better than wii controller because you are the controller you use your whole body which makes fps fun and the ps3 move also pwns wii also the only good games on the wii is mario and sonic others games are usally crap or for babies
Most people don’t like the kinect or even all the motion stuff which wii has. People finds ways around the motion crap (at least as much as possible) and the Wii-U uses less of the motion garbage. Plus I like a lot of the other fun games although I do read reviews before buying any game which why I probably haven’t been disappointed yet. As one game reviewer said which I totally agree with is that there is more to a game than blood and guts at 1080p. I seen that crap since Quake 2 ans it gets old real fast but its new to a lot of other gamers as the console gets graphics capabilities much slower than PC. So now that’s it is old to me and I’m over it, it seems to now be the thing for everyone else. However if your shallow and still believe blood and guts at 1080p are the thing then wait for the Nintendo Wii-U its going to smash Xbox 360 and PS3 combined. Plus there isn’t going to be any of that “I’m going to wait for Xbox or PS to come out with something better” BS because the specs are maxed on the Wii-U as it doesn’t get noticeably better for the next 3 years minimum since the hardware will take at least that long to have any noticeable affect.
thanks mw3 ..actually this was written by me ..long time back
