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.

With hundreds of Xbox 360 video games to choose from, gamers can experience 1080i grahics on their high definition televisions and high fidelity surround sound audio. Unfortunately, the HD-DVD optical disc format is now extinct, so gamers on the on the Xbox 360 will be stuck with normal DVDs. Of course, side by side comparisons clearly show Xbox 360 grahics to be superior to those of its nearest competitor, the Playstation 3, even without the extra storage capacity found in Blu-ray discs. With better graphics and a cheaper price tag, what more could gamers ask for?

With so many Xbox 360 games already available and more coming out each year, gamers will find their experience with the Xbox 360 to always be exciting. All of the big genres are covered, even strategy games which have traditionally been a bastion of PC gaming. However, Microsoft develops both the Xbox platform and Windows, so gamers can expect a lot of crossover titles between the two platforms. For example, Xbox 360 games such as Bioshock, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and Gears of War all appear on the PC as well. This allows gamers with incredibly fast PCs to experience even more amazing graphics, which all gamers can have affordable gameplay with the Xbox 360 pro system.
