5 Best Video Game Consoles | |
---|---|
5. Nintendo GameCube The good: Tiny, nearly portable; less expensive than competing systems. The bad: No DVD or audio CD support; few online titles. The bottom line: The most affordable of the current game systems, the GameCube offers great graphics and good performance, but few extras. | |
4. Nokia N-Gage The good: Game-centric world phone; wireless head-to-head gameplay via Bluetooth; MP3 player and FM radio; mini USB port. The bad: Small screen; back cover and battery must be removed to change games; awkward design for phone calls; pricey games; no IR port. The bottom line: Nokia's cell phone "game deck" is a cool concept, but hardcore gamers may be put off by some design miscues and compromises. | |
3. Microsoft Xbox The good: Best under-the-hood specs; built-in broadband adapter; 8GB hard drive for music and saved-game storage; high-resolution display support. The bad: Big and bulky; separate kit required to unlock DVD-viewing capability; no progressive-scan DVD playback. The bottom line: The Xbox is the most versatile console and perfectly complements a home theater system. | |
2. Sony PlayStation 2 The good: Sleek; lots of good games; DVD movie playback. The bad: Still waiting for hard drive peripheral; Xbox's graphic capabilites are superior; only two controller ports. The bottom line: The elder statesman of next generation consoles, the PlayStation 2 has the luxury of a year's head start and many solid games. | |
1. Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP The good: Stylish, compact design; front-lit screen; removable lithium-ion battery; compatible with all current GBA games and most accessories. The bad: Can't swap in standard batteries in a pinch; no included headphone jack. The bottom line: By including an illuminated screen, Nintendo has finally fixed the original Game Boy Advance's biggest flaw. |
