Which Games Console To Buy This Christmas
With Christmas just round the corner, many children will be asking for a new games console this year. But which one is worth the cash? With the Nintendo Wii, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 all competing for your sales, which one should you buy?
I'll start with the Xbox 360. After a price reduction is September, you can grab an Xbox 360 for £130, making it the cheapest of all 3 consoles. But, for the £130 you only get the arcade system which does not comes with a hard drive, so, what about the console bundles. For the arcade system you can get an arcade system with 3 games and 2 wireless controllers for less than £160. As for the premium console, which comes with a 60GB hard drive, you can get that with 3 games and 2 wireless controllers for £200. And if you want to go the full way and get the Xbox 360 Elite console which comes with a 120GB hard drive aswell as special high definition cables, you can geta which includes 3 games and 2 controllers for £260.
Overall, the Xbox is a great console with many Xbox exclusive games. Also, with a massive online community, it's perfect for any family.
Next, the Nintendo Wii. The Nintendo Wii is a great family console, with a huge selection of family fun games to play. The standard console will cost £180 and for a bundle, which contains the console, 2 controllers, 2 nunchucks and 4 games, £270.
Overall, the Nintendo Wii is a great console, with a huge range of child and family fun games, it's great for all ages.
The final console is the Playstation 3, this is the newest next gen console, and the most expensive. Although the Playstation and Xbox are very similar, the Playstation has one hardware benefit, it features a Blu-ray DVD player. Also, within the last few days, Sony released their new online community, the Playstation Home, which is free free all Playstation owners.
As for the price, the standard 40GB hard drive console will cost you around £300. As for a bundle, you can get an 80GB Playstation with 4 games for around £300.
Obviously the Playstation is the most exspensive, but value for money, I would not say it's worth it. Although the console is similar to the Xbox, the Playstation has less exlcusive content than the Xbox.
Finally, I would say that the Xbox 360 is the best console if you're playing solo and for online gaming, but if you are after a more family console, the Nintendo Wii is the best.
Caribbean Holidays and All Inclusive Holidays are perfect for this Winter.
