One of the biggest rivalries since the Yankees and Red Sox, Celtics and Lakers, and Bruins and Canadiens is Microsoft and Sony. The main gadget that represents both companies are the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3. The Xbox 360 debuted with a price at about $400. It came with a wireless controller, detachable hard drive, a headset, and high definition A.V cables. Also Xbox has one of the best online services called Xbox Live where you play with people around the world! The Xbox 360 has sold about 29 million units since its release. The Playstation 3 sold at a starting price of about $600 at its launch. This is an overwhelming price to deal with especially if you want to see the unnecessary Blu-ray effect you would have to spend at least $1500 for a 1080p resolution television, and it does not come with high-definition cables as opposed to the 360 which does comes with hi-def and normal cables. The Ps3 came with a Sixaxis wireless controller, and an Ethernet cable. Not much right? Didn’t think so. Now, although the Ps3 has free online Playstation Network (PSN), the quality of Xbox Live is much better. Xbox Live has less lagging, and you can communicate while playing your game as opposed to Ps3 which you have to be in your Playstation Home to communicate online. Almost every title for Xbox 360 is Xbox Live compatible. What happened to Playstation being the jump-off of the video-gaming world? Well, in our opinion, Xbox 360 is better because it offers more options and better quality to the player than Playstation 3 but we can let the decision up to you.
