You could be a heroic hunter by expecting
to fight against evil monsters or the fastest F1 driver around In the world of
computer games, nothing is impossible.
If you’re into computer
games, E3 is where you can find the most up-to-date equipment．For both gamers and companies, the
Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), held in Los Angeles, US, for three days
from May 10, was a carnival (狂欢节).
The top three computer game
manufacturers (生产商) in the world all showed off their
new machines. Nintendo’s (任天堂) new game controller looks as
easy to use as a TV remote.
Sony’s PlayStation 3
combines the world’s most powerful game console (游戏机) with a
next-generation DVD player.
Microsoft’s Xbox 360 can
connect to personal computers (PC) and cell phones, so users can transfer game
content among the three systems.
PC VS Console
The E3 also had new games for both PCs and consoles such as the Xbox or PlayStation.
Gamers will again be faced with the long-existing problem of which system to
use.
Some analysts have suggested
that PC gaming has seen its day, since console players have made great advances.
Further, compared with a PC,
a console is cheap. The average price of the PlayStation and the Xbox is only
one-third of that of a
personal computer.
One of the biggest
advantages the PC has over consoles is that there are a lot more games
available, plus many are free to download. PCs also give gamers a variety of
ways to connect to the Internet, and to one another.
However, many consoles now
support online games as well. It seems that as long as people can be dragon(龙)hunters or crazy drivers, it doesn’t
matter whether it is on a PC or a console.
