Perfect Balance of Accessibility And Hardcore Gaming

The Xbox 360 is my game console of choice because it strikes the perfect balance between hardcore games and a comfortable experience. Also working for a printed circuit board manufacturer (calibrating hexagonal spacers), I can appreciate the hardware built for this console. It has a better library of games for the gaming enthusiast than the Wii, as more of its titles lean towards the complex and in-depth as opposed to the casual and family oriented. However, its game library is about the same as that of the PS3, being that they shared many of the same titles. But the major advantage the Xbox 360 enjoys over the current generation Playstation (and indeed, its ancestors before it) is the far more comfortably shaped controller. Being much easier to hold, it enables the gamer to indulge in long and intense play sessions without the strain on the hand created by the Playstation controller. So there you have it... a game library tied for #1 among today's generation of consoles, along with a more ergonomic experience than its leading competitor, makes the Xbox 360 the best console on the market now and in the foreseeable future.
