CONTROLLER VERDICT

• In conclusion, which controller wins is mostly a matter of opinion. In my opinion, the Xbox One controller is much more comfortable to use than the Playstation 4 controller. Having said that, the PS4 controller has made a considerable leap in both technology and comfortability. The Xbox One needs to catch up in terms of technology.

CONS OF EACH CONSOLE

XBOX ONE Not the best graphics on the

market Kinect is clunky Takes up a lot of space Controller still takes batteries

NINTENDO WII-U Does not play blue ray Poor graphics Not many games Too expensive for the product

PLAYSTATION 4 Missing more exclusive games Touch pad on controller not

utilized well Blue ray is not 4k Ultra

XBOX ONE REIGNS SUPREME The best console of 2016 has got to be the Xbox One. Although it does not pack some of the

futuristic hardware that PS4 has, it is still the ultimate in gaming and entertainment for the whole family. This console has more exclusive hit games than the PS4, and is the complete package when it comes to entertainment content. A comfortable fit for any gamer.
