The three main players in the current video game consoles wars are Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo. While all of the current crop of video game consoles play video games they are all 3 very different animals with differing strengths and weaknesses.
The Nintendo Wii has shocked both Microsoft and Sony with skyrocketing sales and public acceptance even though it doesn’t have the strongest graphics. A lot of players who are expecting a Wii for Christmas this year may be disappointed because Nintendo has already announced a shortage of Wii’s extending through the middle of 2008. If you find one buy it now!
Microsoft XBox 360 sales remain strong and have been re-energized by the recent release of Halo 3. Incredible graphics and multiplayer gameplay remain the hallmarks of the XBox despite less than stellar reliability. Microsoft did announce rather quietly earlier this year and extension of warranties to cover hardware problems with the units.
Sony’s Playstation 3 has been positioned between the other 2, quietly going about what it does best…offering tremendous game play through a variety of game titles and providing acceptable hardware performance without all the the Microsoft drama.
