Xbox 360 – Better Than The Nintendo Wii?
Well, the answer in simple terms is Yes, it is better than the Nintendo Wii with regards to power, graphics and its ‘variation’ of quality games, but for its wii accessories and products, it compares quite well. I myself am a big fan of the Xbox 360 and play on it a good few times per week. That is when I can prize my five year old’s fingers from it long enough to have a game. For the serious video gamers, the Xbox cannot be spoken of badly, but this doesn’t mean it is better than the Nintendo Wii is not as good in the eyes of many.
One of the Xbox 360’s main features is its online community. XBOX live is great, it’s pretty cheap and really easy to set up. Couple that with the fact that the XBOX has a hard drive (no memory cards here folks) and you get quite a bit of extra playability out of your games. Xbox Live is designed well for this with itss own leader boards, but an even better addition than your basic leader boards is the ability to save replays of you going through a level and sharing them online. It works similarly as saving replays in Halo 3 or N+ , except besides seeing the top players, you can see your friend’s replays also. Xbox LIVE is an online subscription service that allows Xbox gamers to play video games together and download additional game content using the Internet. Once online, gamers can play one another over the Internet and talk to each other in real-time using the headset (included in the bundle).

I would have to agree with those who believe the 360 live is better than Wii. That being said I like the Wii very much. I just like that Xbox offers so many accessories, on and offline. I think all three, PS, Wii, XBox can satisfy the needs and wants of most gamers.
