Buying Guides | Video games have come a long way since Pong came on the scene. From the latest in fast processors to the best in graphic design technology, video games are always on the cutting edge. A few major systems dominate the market and are in constant competition for the yay or nay of the consumer. There were major releases from all of the major manufacturers in 2006: the PlayStation 3, the Nintendo Wii, and the XBox 360.
Even though there are only a handful of platforms, the number of games is almost infinite and hundreds of games are released every year. Although some games are proprietary to a certain system, many are released for multiple platforms. For example, the Mario games are only available for Nintendo systems, but the various Grand Theft Auto games are available on several different systems.
