Xbox 360 Gets Most Use
Very interesting article. At home we have both a 360 and a Wii (well. I have a 360, my wife has a Wii). The difference in the games is astonishing. I unwrapped Forza 3 last night and played it for the first time. A game like that (or Modern Warfare or FIFA10 – my other Christmas presents) is just inconceivable on the Wii. In most Wii games I’ve seen, rendering arms for people is considered a luxury.
That said, my wife Is hooked on Dr Mario and has owned it on just about every platform available since release. Now it’s available on the Wii I doubt I’ll ever see her again. It is addictive and I’ve practised like crazy to try and beat her but she’s in a different league. Still, I’m determined. And at least I can practise in secret against the CPU. It just goes to show how important gameplay is when a 20 year old game can still capture the imagination.
