Which Games Console To Buy This Christmas
With Christmas just around the corner, many children will be asking for a new next gen 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?
Lets begin with the Xbox 360. After a price reduction, the Xbox 360 now costs £130, making it the cheapest console of the 3 next gens. 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 get the console, 3 games and 2 wireless controllers for around £160. As for the premium console, you can get a premium console which includes a 60GB hard drive, 3 games and 2 controllers for around £200. And if you want to go the full way and get the Xbox 360 Elite console that comes with a 120GB hard drive aswell as high definition cables included, you can get a bundle with 3 games and 2 wireless controllers for £260.
Overall, the Xbox is a great console with many Xbox exclusive games. Plus, with a huge online community, it's a great console for any family.
Next, the Nintendo Wii. The Nintendo Wii has to be the best family console, it features a huge range of family fun games to keep your family entertained for hours. The standalone console will cost you around £180, but for a bundle, you can get the console, 2 controllers, 2 nunchucks and 4 games for around £270.
Overall the Nintendo Wii is a good console, it's not like any other console on the market and has a huge range of family fun and single play games for all ages.
The final console, the newest, and the most exspensive is the Playstation 3,. The Playstation is very similar to the Xbox, except that the Playstation comes with a Blu-ray DVD players installed. Also, just in a last few days, Sony released their new Playstation Home, a brand new online community for all their Playstation owners.
As for the price of the console, it will cost you around £300 for the standard, 40GB hard drive one. As for a bundle, you can get a Playstation console with an 80GB hard drive and 4 games for prices that range between £296 and £313.
Obviously the Playstation 3 is the most expensive console of the 3, but overall I wouldn't say it's the best of the 3, especially price wise. Although the consoles are similar, the XBox requires a subscription for online play whereas the Playstation requires no subscription.
Finally, I would say that the Xbox 360 is the best for online and solo gaming, if you are after family and child friendly gaming, the Nintendo Wii is the best bet.
Caribbean Holidays and All Inclusive Holidays are perfect for this Winter.
