After having spent some time with both the Nintendo Wii and the Xbox 360, I’ve formed some opinions of exactly what I love about each console…
| Nintendo Wii |
Xbox 360 |
- Low Price
$250 For a next-generation console? How can you beat it? Apparently you can’t as I hear that the Wii may be selling out all the way through the next holiday season!
sales figures
- Innovative Controls
There is no way to describe except to see it. Video
- Built in Wireless Adaptor
less wires. sweet!

- Great Graphics
The 360’s graphics are way better than Wii’s. I’m also a PC gamer, but building a PC with comparable graphics would probably cost me $600-$700.
- DVD Player
one less appliance in the living room. booya.
- Achievements!
Each game has a set of achievements set by the developer, each with points associated with them. Once you realize an achievement, the points are added to your Xbox profile! The more points you have, the cooler you are! (or sadder – I haven’t quite decided yet)

Do you think I’m spot on or full of poopie? Shout out in the comments!
I just got done deleting hundreds of unwanted comments from my gallery software which I can only assume were placed there because of internet hacker bots!
Also, I just realized that my content management system is totally unsecure. If you had the wherewithall I’m sure you could hack my articles up a bazillion ways from Sunday (what does that even mean)?
Things to do:
- - disable guest account for photo gallery and force my friends and family members to register & login just to post a comment on some picture.
- - secure my website. I must remember the words of Uncle Ben: With Great Power (Ruby on Rails) comes great Responsibility (i.e. the site doesn’t secure itself)!
Now that I think of it, I actually have an uncle Ben and I’m not sure he’s ever said that.
UPDATE 6/6/2007 My site is now [more] secure! Take that internet hacker bots!
