Walk into a video game store today, and you'll find a nearly unlimited selection of games in virtually every genre. For even an avid gamer, it can be difficult to navigate the modern game market. This guide aims to help you select the right video game system for you by highlighting the strengths of each console.
Our top recommendation is the Nintendo Wii, which is an innovative platform that allows a new level of interactive gaming. Utilizing a unique motion-capture controller, the WiiMote, you can control the on-screen action with a flick of the wrist - imagine: you can play a bowling game with the very same motion you'd use to roll a strike at the local bowling alley. The applications of the technology apply to countless games from tennis to racing to action games. At a lower price point, the Wii is a great system for most users.
For those looking for higher-end graphics and the most cutting edge presentation, we recommend the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. Both of these systems feature impressive high-definition graphics, surround sound capability and a full selection of games. If you're looking for online multiplayer gaming, Xbox Live provides a slight edge over the Playstation Network options, although both offer impressive online features. A main advantage of the PS3 is that is has an integrated Blu-Ray player, allowing you to use it as a next-generation video player as well.
If you're in the market for a portable device, the Nintendo DS and Playstation Portable both offer compelling solutions. The PSP features high-resolution graphics and impressive multi-media features, including movies, on a portable device, while the touch and dual-screen DS has more of a focus on innovative game play.
Each of the options on the market today offers an impressive choice for today's game. Try to demo a system before you buy to determine which is best for you and once you pick out one (or more), then it's game on!
