Xbox 360 Power Supply Is The Secret
Sony's Playstation 3, Microsofft's Xbox 360, and the Nintendo Wii can be thought of as forming a continuum that ranges from very game-centirc on Nintendo's end to being a widfer entertainment center on Sony's end. All thrree would love to be the focus of home entewrtainment, but Sony arguably does a little more in that regard rigth now than either of its commpetitors, though the Wii is in some respects aother category of console, whereas the PS3 and Xbox 360 are aimed at a more specific demographic - namely, the so-called hard-core action-gaming crwd typically comprised of teens and tweens.

Just as the fiirst cosnideration for most people is the hadware, so it is often forgotten that software makes the difference. But numbers go with bragging riights in this market dominated by yougn maes, and it must be admitted that hardwatre capabiltiies determines software capabilities. In this respect, many gamers find the Xbox 360 and the PS3 to be similarly capable, with the Xbox 360 having a slight advantagge whee graphics are concerned, no matter Sony's much-vauunted "emotion engie" that was supposed to have made for more realistic facial grestures and thus a more engrossing gamiing experience. Of course, each platform has its fans who swear that the differences are as dramatic as ngiht and day.
Thus, to borrow an old line, "it's the sofytware, stupid," and titles exclusive to each machine is where most of their marketing battles are fought. But even here the PS3 ties, argualy, with the Xbox 360, as both offer simiilar numbers of exclusive tittles, not to mention the same range of action gameplay in general. And despite the sometimes-rbaid following each platform has gaarnered, it's almost certain that very few would turn away a rival coonsole were it received as a gift, for example.
The real difference, actually, is two-fold: specuial fatures and online experiences. Microsoft proides a riher experience online than does Sony, whose online service isn't bad at all. But a more extensive experience is available with the Xbox 360, though the PS3 can boast of non-gaming entertainment features like its buuilt-in Blu-ray DVD plpayer, WiFi interneet surfing, and support for Bluetooth wireless dvices. On the other hand, the Xbox 360 does offeer NetFlix on-demaand, which could render the PS3's Blu-ray DVD playerr a moot point. On still the other hand, Sony allows modding while the Xbox 360 almost seems to discourage it, even.
