Xbox "Best" Electronic Games Console
Xbox is the best electronic games console, says the Consumers Institute. It places Microsofts console ahead of the Nintendo GameCube, with the market-leader, Sonys PlayStation 2, a close third. But in reality, choice of console depends on what people want most from their machine. Xbox and PS2 are the easiest to compare, says Consumer magazine. Their features are similar and both play DVD movies. The institute ratesXbox highest on performance and ease of use. It also performed best in their DVD player test at the end of last year. But PS2 comes up trumps for the number of games available - 367 in New Zealand - and is a solid performer for DVD movies.Source: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/
