Its eQ1, time to compare our newest consoles ;)
Sony PlayStation 3Sony's
PS3 is the most expensive at $500-600, includes a standard hard drive, a high definition
Blu-ray optical drive, HD video output, Bluetooth wireless controllers, and--in the premium version--WiFi wireless networking.
Sony is setting up the PS3 as a PC alternative. The premium model has a memory card reader for not only Sony’s own Memory Stick but also--in what must be an incredible first for the company--Compact Flash and SD memory cards, making the PS3 a digital hub for photos; with a USB keyboard and mouse and the included web browser, it can serve as a basic PC.
Sony originally announced plans to ship the PS3 with Linux pre-installed, but currently user installation of "another operating system" is only a boot option. Use of another OS isn’t currently supported by Sony, and would of course need to be specially designed to work on the PS3’s specialized Cell processor architecture.The PS3 is also the new HD core of Sony’s modern take on the stereo system, offering 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround and true 1080p high definition video playback from prerecorded Blu-ray movies.
Microsoft Xbox 360Introduced last winter, Microsoft’s
Xbox 360 is $300-400, uses a standard DVD optical drive, and includes a hard drive and wireless game controller in its premium version. Microsoft recently updated the 360 to provide support for full HD, 1080p video output to match the PS3.
Rather than positioning the Xbox 360 as a standalone PC alternative, Microsoft pairs it with its plans for Windows Media Center, allowing the 360 to be used as a media extender to stream music and movies from a central Media Center PC.
Microsoft has offered HD movie playback both with an optional HD-DVD player in an external box, and over the web through its online Xbox Live video store.
Nintendo WiiThe
Wii is the least expensive of the three at $250, and includes both Bluetooth for wireless controllers and a DVD drive, but will not be able to play DVD movies. It also lacks a hard drive. Instead, the Wii focuses on physically involving games using the wireless
Wii Remote paired with the accessory
Nunchuk controller.
The Wii Remote uses accelerometers to sense how players swing, point, and tilt the controller, encouraging game titles to incorporate activity.
The Wii will also wirelessly connect to Nintendo's DS portable game system, using its microphone and touchscreen as inputs for Wii games.While the Wii has no movie store, Nintendo has an online store that sells classic games from the Nintendo 64 and other previous game consoles.
sourceVerdict The Xbox 360 is the most beautiful with sleek curves and a color to fit, the ps3 coming last with odd edges and a shape like that of a crashed mothership.
pictures here. The 360 is faster, 55teraflops, compared to the 23 of ps3 and 11 of the Wii. The Wiis gameplay however makes up for what it lacks in terms of graphics capabilities.
In my opinion, get an XBOX 360, then a Wii for your siblings, then a PS3 for your enemies.
