Video games have become popular over the years. The increase of new technology and video games graphics has become one of the fastest growing industries of the world. In fact two of the modern and finest distributors to the video game industries are Sony’s PlayStation 3 (PS3) and Microsoft’s Xbox 360. These two companies have created the most advanced home video game system consoles on the market. However, even though the PS3 and the Xbox 360 provide similar entertainment there are several technical differences that both consoles contain.
The PS3 and the Xbox 360 are decent consoles which have wireless controllers to play any video game. Each controller has the same number of buttons to function a video game. Video games in both systems have similar categories of games which are the following: fighting, sports, strategy, action, and shooter. There is also an online live feature that allows gamers to play video games online with people around the world with someone that has either a PS3 or an Xbox 360. This feature is developed in both consoles.
Both video game systems can play DVDs, Cd’s, and download videos or movies in high definition (HD). The photo gallery to view pictures is available for both systems. In addition, the permission to play downloaded music from a thumb drive to the console while playing a game is available. A thumb drive is a portable hard drive used for storing files and being able to take them with you wherever you go. A thumb drive as well is integrated with a USB (Universal Serial Bus).
Universal Serial Bus (USB) drivers are located in the front of both systems for uploading files from a thumb drive to the console of the owners’ choice and taste. Above all, in the wisdom of playing video games it is a requirement to have high quality graphics in a video game console. Gamers want graphics that would make them feel that the video game is realistic. A PS3 has a blue-ray disc reader, which reads DVD’s, blue-ray disks, and video games in high definition; therefore, this provides a video game with faster speed, sharp images, clearer sound in a HD television, and a realistic graphic capacity.
On the other hand, an Xbox 360 has a DVD-ROM disc, which only reads DVD’s, high definition DVD’s, CD’s for music and Xbox 360 games in a slower rate than a PS3. The price on an Xbox 360 can be cheap but the idea of the company is to make customers think that is cheaper. Despite that, there is an additional cost of five dollars to ten dollars per month to play online. While a PS3 is somewhat expensive, this console has free online gaming, high resolution graphics to enjoy, and stunning results than an Xbox 360.
Moreover, the location of the control buttons for PS3 and Xbox 360 are configured differently. In the final analysis, a PS3 and an Xbox 360 are decent consoles that both have wireless controllers, similar categories of games, a feature to play online live games, and permission to upload any type of file into the system with a CD or a thumb drive. However, both systems are different because a PS3 provides a higher rate of graphics capacity than Xbox 360. I hope you enjoyed my informative speech. Thank you for listening.
