Which console to choose?

Welcome to the first edition of my weekly guide on gaming. I called it The Idiots Guide To Gaming because you don't need to be genius to start gaming and you don't need cheat codes in order to finish games.

If idiots don't use cheat codes? then what we call all those who do?

Anyway moving right along today we checking out which console to pick? don't forget if you have the cash? hey? you can get all 3 consoles that am about to cover.

I personally own a Sony Playstation 3 console and i must say that its pretty good. Its the simple things that make the PS3 stand out,the wireless dualshock controller with rechargeable batteries and its blu ray DVD you game in HD and it has the biggest storage space with its 320gig hard drive. If you can afford the 320gig console there is also a 160gig cheaper model. With prices starting from R2700 for the 160gig and R3200 for the 320gig. Both come with one dualshock controller. I know hey? all that money for one controller.


 The Xbox 360 is cheaper than the PS3. The games are also cheaper which makes it great for gaming on a budget. It has stunning HD graphics but smaller hard drives models then the PS3. Its kinect system makes it fun for the whole family to play games with it. It has wireless dualshock controllers but they are not rechargeable, so budget for batteries when getting it. With the 4gig console starting at R2200, the 250gig having a variety of bundles between R2700 and R3500. X box have also released a special edition Star Wars console valued at R4700.


  The Nintendo Wii best described as the entertainment console that's going to bring the whole family together. Its the cheapest console on this list and Nintendo says this no one does motion control gaming the way they do. I agree to disagree with them, they have very strong competition from the PS3 motion controllers and Xbox's Kinect system. If your not into joysticks "dualshock controllers" then the Wii is for you. You can also use you Wii as your personal gym instructor with the Wii Fit Plus and let it help you shed off the winter fat, The Wii retails at R1600 at most, its here to cure the family from Friday night boredom.

All three consoles are awesome! if you can? get all three and game the night away with friends and family.
