True, the PSP runs a normal lithium battery which is small and gives you only around 6 hours of normal things but only 3 hours on a big games ! the DS can go all the way to the 18 hours mark !

ALAMGIR, all you do is base yourself on stats given by users and their opinions, while we only brought fact given by the manufacturers themselves !
the scores that you mention that are all above 8 !
well tell yourself that MGS2 was like 10/10 for like 1 months, until blam it suddently goes off to a mere 7/10 !

give em times and i'm sure you game reviewed above 8 will eventually go down under 7 !
basically alamgir, your 100% emotionnal here, there is no debate for you its all the "PSP is BETTER final point whatever you do it will never change my view on it" type of speech !

to the other guy... actually i never ditched DARKSTALKERS for its one of my better games !
for me the DARKSTALKER : CHRONICLES on DREAMCAST is the best port ever ! as for BEAT EM UPS, well you guys should look more into it and see that for the past 4 years BEAT EM UPS have simply stopped existing ! so i didn't expected either of the handhelds to have any anyway !

as i mentionned... gameplay is the key in a game, people don't care much for the graphics even the small kids don't look at it ! they see the graphics tell's themselves its cool, play it and since only the graphics are cool and that the game doesn't offer good gameplay, they waste it or sell it back for another game !

again graphics only give you so few things in itself...
example... METROID ont he old nes... it wasn't graphicals yet it made it into the best game ever created for what ? its gameplay, an innovative gameplay ! the world ask for innovation which up to now, handheld wise, the DS has innovated by giving something all the other consoles never given ! a second screen and a stylus that can be used a pointing device which in my view is way better then an analog stick !

maybe the PSP has more features, but look at it the right side... its a very expansive handheld !
you gotta pay for internet, you gotta pay for the game, you gotta pay for the USB cables, you gotta pay for the new USB things, you gotta pay for each games, you gotta pay a lot for each features ! i wouldn't even be surprise if you ever gotta pay to update your PSP ! everything sony made was for the sole purpose of making money and the best way to make money is to give the users a lot of things to do with their consoles including making you pay for each separate features they will add later on !

in the nutshell... the DS will have costed me only a poor 300$ while your PSP with all will have costed 5 times that number ! i say its pretty better to buy a less potent handheld which will give you enough money to have a lot more games for it !

The rest explains itself, the games aren't what makes the consoles, the graphics aren't it either... the gameplay is, the fun factor is. innovation is the key to sucess in our world. the DS gives all of this while the PSP only gives us features you already have seen ont he computers and to that point i rather buy a PORTABLE MINI-COMPUTER that will do even more then the PSP for even less money !

conclusion, the PSP is just a market toy for you to spend all your money only trying to follow its lead which leads to nowhere !

maybe the PSP is better graphically, and maybe it sa way to actually acknoledge the fact it costes more... but fact remains there... if you pay for things you already have, then you paid for nothing !

BTW, i like how everytimes i speak you just ignore my post cause i am right and you know it !
