During the past few weeks we conducted a survey. The topic was “Favorite Game Systems.” We asked the students in our journalism class which video game system was their favorite and why. Our choices for answering the survey were the Nintendo Wii, PSP, Xbox 360, PS3, and the Nintendo DS. According to our classmates, their favorite game system was the Wii. Most of the people who were surveyed thought that the ability to move and feel like you are actually in the game really made them believe that the Wii was the best console.

The 4% of students who chose the PS3 as their favorite console believed that the great graphics really made them like the system. Perhaps the PS3 wasn't ranked higher because not too many people have it. After all, it is one of the most expensive video game system out right now. Two of the best video games currently out on the market for the PS3 are Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and Assassin's Creed.

The Xbox 360 got 15%of the student's votes. The people who voted for it really liked its graphics. Halo 3 and Guitar Hero 3 are top sellers for the Xbox 360.

The PSP recieved less votes than any other game system except the PS3. The PSP is portable, has music,movies, and games.One the biggest seller for the PSP is Grand Theft Auto:Vice City. The Nintendo DS also got 15% of the student's votes. People who were interviewed really liked that the DS was portable and that it had two screens. Mario Party DS is one of the best games for the DS.

Here is a chart showing the results of the survey. .
