Must-have Gaming Hardware of Tomorrow

In the third part of the must-have series, some of the hottest and coolest gaming hardware that will appear in the next few months will be covered. Read on!

Xbox 360 HD DVD DriveMake your Xbox 360 an all-rounded entertainment system with this HD DVD drive. Although its sole function is to play HD DVD movies, it is still worth getting (so you can wipe the smug off the PS3 owner's face!). Sporting a design that looks just like the Xbox 360, it will be in stores in time for Christmas (or as many websites put it). Look out for it!

PlayStation 3 Packed with all the mouth-watering features you will ever need, the PS3 is one console to get -- that is, if you have the cash to spare. The sleek metal finish serves another function: Putting the PS3 in the category of fashion products. The only bad thing is that you need a HDTV to fully benefit from the power of the PS3. To be released on November 11 in Japan and on November 17 in North America, Europe and Australia. Asian countries near Japan can expect the PS3 to arrive between November 11 to November 17. Look out for Powerplay's PS3 pre-launch guide coming soon.

Wii It is time to change the way games are played with the innovative Wii-mote (seriously, how many times have I said this before?) . As far as I know, the Wii will allow users to browse the web!?! Oh my, that's a first! Have you ever used your television set for Internt browsing before? And the Wii's online service, Wii24Connect, will be free -- just like the PS3's, but the only difference is that the Wii will stay connected even after you have switched it off. It is also known that the Wii will have 2 USB ports behind (Can I plug my MP3 player in?) and will be able to play DVDs -- but in a separate attachment. Look out for Powerplay's Wii pre-launch guide coming soon.

Xbox 360 Driving WheelEquipped with the force feedback system, this device attempts to make your racing experience more heart-thumping (because it feels too realistic!). Comes with pedals and arriving in stores in November. You can't miss this -- unless of course, you already have another racing wheel for the Xbox 360.
