Kinect vs Move

Jun 19th

Battle of the consoles – always a great debate amongst tech enthusiasts, hardcore gamers and fanboys a like.

It seems that the success of Nintendo Wii’s concept of gaming has prompted both

Microsoft and Sony to get into the market.

Both the PS3 and Xbox 360 have a massive user base and each have their exclusive games and content. But as they both venture into the “motion” style of gaming – who do you think is going to win??

Not ideal when the Powerbook is functioning perfectly well on everything else BUT Flash! Plus considering the cost of such a venture, just to work YouTube smoothly.

So why not consider – a life without flash?????? Read on….
