While
neither has been
released, there is
already a great deal of
discussion between those
who side with Sony on
the video game wars and
those who side with
Nintendo.
These games
have obviously not begun
just yet, but you should
be excited to learn just
what is possible with
both the PlayStation 3
and Nintendo Wii
consoles.
While
Nintendo has a great
reputation and history
in the video gaming
industry, it has also
taken criticism recently
for falling behind in
the video game arms race
that calls for more
power and realism. Sony
has taken off in the
video gaming world and
the Nintendo Wii matches
up with the PS3 just
like this:
Ø
With
PlayStation 3, Sony is
all set to introduce not
only one of the biggest
and best gaming consoles
in the world today and
possibly forever, but
they are also releasing
a system that demands a
plethora of cash to
possess. With the
prices for the various
PS3’s falling between
$499 and $699 you are
looking at the prospect
of missing next month’s
mortgage payment.
However, Nintendo Wii
has come right out of
the box with guns a
blazin’ to get into
these wars with the nice
price of $249. There is
no alternative packages
or upgrades, $249 is it!
Ø
While
both companies are
certainly innovators in
this respect, it remains
to be seen if the
Nintendo Wii or Sony
PlayStation 3 has the
best version of motion
detection controllers.
The Nintendo Wii does
require a small sensor
bar in front of your
television before
playing to help with the
motion detection, while
the PlayStation is ready
to play without anything
extra. This sounds like
an easy choice, but once
the controllers are even
at purchased and signed
on, the Nintendo Wii
controller will
outstretch the
PlayStation 3 by just a
tad in distance.
Ø
Sony is
obviously a maker of
televisions, media
players, television, and
movies so it stands to
reason that their major
video gaming console is
aimed at adults. Video
games with the
PlayStation 3 are of an
adult nature with
scantily clad women and
people looking to shoot
other people at any
moment. However, the
Nintendo Wii offers a
more wholesome and
family-friendly
experience with their
games. If Wii is right
for your children, don’t
bat an eye, they will
love it!
Ø
PlayStation 3 is set to
offer an online
community where gamers
can compete against one
another or download
previous versions of PS1
and PS2 games. This is
similar to Nintendo
allowing Wii users to
download old Nintendo
games at their choosing.
If you
are still unsure of
which system that you
should go with then you
should visit your local
electronics retailer and
see if you can play a
demo in the store. The
comfort and ease of the
system could help you
make the right choice in
regards to the purchase.
