| GameCube, Xbox, and PlayStation 2 are the three most advanced and popular 
video-game consoles on the market. They have some similarities but also many 
differences -- including graphics, their controllers, and the games available. 
Which one is best for you depends on what you like to do with it -- apart from 
playing games, some consoles can play CDs, DVDs, and/or connect to the Internet 
for online gaming. The main thing I like to do is just play games -- sport games, especially 
skateboarding ones, and a few story games, such as Luigi's Mansion, where the 
goal is to find a character named Mario by overcoming dozens of obstacles. I 
only use a system's DVD player now and then -- to play a movie or get video tips 
for skateboarding. I don't go on the Internet to play against other people 
online. Competing against the game -- by myself or with a friend -- has been 
enough for me. |
