Still Next-Gen After Two Years with Xbox 360 Video Games
Video games have been rising in popularity since the days of the Atari 2600, and the current age of video gaming began with the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES for short). Two decades after the Nintendo started flying off of store shelves, there are three big consoles on the market: Microsoft’s Xbox 360, Sony’s Playstation 3, and Nintendo’s Wii. The first two will appeal to the same demographic of gamers, and they compare relatively closely in terms of graphics and other features. Therefore, the deciding factor should be their respective libraries of games. Gamers looking for a strong game library can turn to the hundreds of Xbox 360 video games on the market to fulfill their wishes.
Only a Few Exclusives
The biggest problem for many gamers about the Xbox 360 is that it only has a few exclusive Xbox 360 video game titles. Big titles like Grand Theft Auto IV and Bioshock have all come out on different platforms. Exclusive titles like the Playstation 3′s Metal Gear Solid 4 are big reasons why gamers might choose one platform over another. A recent example of the effects of exclusive titles came with Square Enix’s announcement that their upcoming game Final Fantasy XIII will no longer be a Playstation 3 exclusive. As Final Fantasy XIII will now be coming out also as an Xbox 360 video game, many gamers who might have purchased a Playstation 3 may decide to go with the Xbox 360 instead.
Shooter fans are bound to love Halo 3 and Gears of War, while RPG gamers are not left out in the cold with Xbox 360 video games. The RPG enthusiast will find Fable 2 and Age of Conan to their liking. Other big titles like Call of Duty 4, Mass Effect, and Bioshock will appeal to a large variety of players. To be able to play these games though, gamers will need an Xbox 360 game system. The current 20 Gb model is being sold at $300, while the new 60 Gb vesion will once again cost $350 (what the 20 Gb model cost until recently). With the system, gamers will be able to experience Xbox 360 video games in full HD 1080i (with support for 1080p). That’s the absolute best that gamers can ask for with the current generation of televisions, although computer monitors are capable of displaying slightly higher resolutions.
If you’re a gamer who has held off on buying the Xbox 360 pro because of a lack of titles, all of the Xbox 360 video games available today (let alone what will be available a year from now) should be more than enough to convince even the hardest of critics to purchase the console. What they will get for $350 is the most grahically intensive video game console experience. With hundreds of titles to choose from, any gamer will be pleased with the extensive game selection.
