Ah, the Gaming World. An amazing modern phenomena which has transformed the way in which we spend our time. So many people live the gaming life with an abundance of different consoles and gadgets. Should you be thinking about buying your very first console, or if you want to extend your collection further, stop looking here; you have found what you seek.

I will give here a short article for the time conscious of you, and I will discuss the ‘big three,’ the Sony PlayStation 3, the Microsoft Xbox 360 and the Nintendo Wii. Each has triumphs and each has drawbacks, and I will present these in due course over the next few minutes.

Firstly, the Sony PlayStation 3 [PS3]. Following the success of the original PlayStation, and the subsequent landmark, the PS2, Sony must be thriving on the sheer sales alone of the system. We have always loved the PlayStation and always will. The PS3 introduces a totally wireless controller, charged via USB cable to the system itself. In addition, the controller is SIXAXIS enabled, allowing movements with the controller to be replicated on screen, for example in Grand Theft Auto 4, a jerking back of the controller allows the character to do a wheelie on a motorbike. Vehicles can also be steered in this way. Furthermore, the Graphics on the PS3 are unrivaled by any other console. The sheer intensity of the game is totally revealed with amazingly realistic gameplay. The PS3 retails at around 250 and is a brilliant buy for any gamer, hardcore or casual.

Secondly, the Xbox 360 follows on from an original Xbox with internet play and community. Now, the online side of the Xbox is undeniably cool and it brings a brilliant experience to anyone who wants to talk, play or download movies over it. Despite not having the SIXAXIS controls of the PS3, the controller feels nicer and chunkier in the hands, with two comfortable analogue sticks, and triggers for shooting games, much like the R1 and R2 buttons on the PlayStation. A disadvantage, though, is that leaving it on for anymore than 6 hours leaves it liable to overheating. Despite this, the 360 is the cheapest console and basic models start from 130 (for the casual gamer) right up to the elite console at around 200 (for the pro gamer).

The Nintendo Wii changed gaming forever since its release. Previously, gaming was sitting back in a chair and moving just fingers and thumbs, but now you can play golf in your lounge without breaking the TV. Just be sure to fit the safety strap on the remote. A variety of remote attachments allow the main remote and ‘nunchuck’ controller to be converted into a gun, a tennis racket or a baseball bat. In fact, many more good games are coming to Wii, which is another advantage for anyone looking to buy one. Furthermore, you may often see a Wii in an Elderly folks’ home, getting the residents up and moving. It also gets everyone else exercising with the new Wii Fit balance board, which has seen record sales and has had brilliant reviews all across the globe. The Wii retails at 180, coming with a free game, Wii Sports (Worth 20-30).

All in all, it is down to you to decide upon your personal console. Each is loved by many and each can bring many advantages to the purchaser. I personally own a PlayStation 3 and a Wii, although I’m aware of and respect the Xbox’s status as well. Any console is the right choice. Just pick the one that suits you best.
