The nintendo ds vs. sony's psp - Objective arguments only

[alamgir]

I've already posted review scores VF. 10 PSP games got 8 or more out of 10 while only 1 got the same for DS.

Karma, i'm sure you know that everything the handhelds can do, something else we already own can do. But still people buy a DS/PSP.

Although you might say the psp expensive. It is a console that will go far into the future. Prices are set to be lowered in summer and more good games are coming out. It''ll have updates directly from the web. Who said you need high speed internet, the internet any of us are using will do.
No one is asking you to buy any USB "things", you'll only connect to them if you have them.

Because it's something that comes along naturally with time and advances in graphics modeling? But to judge a game or system soley by it's graphics, that's

retarded. That's like judging how good a book is by the font they use.

If Nintendo wanted to use 3d graphics they should have made them as good as the competition. Most of the 3d graphics in DS games look terrible. If graphics weren't an issue then why were Nintendo advertising about how they're console can play N64 graphics? If you can't make the 3d graphics look good or as good as the competition then why bother?

And its not like i'm solely judging the systems on graphics, i'm judging them by their games too as I believe they are the most important thing. You wanted proof of those review scores, go and check how well your great DS games are doing here. Oh yeah, funnny how the only good game on DS is a port of an old game...

Games?

Let me tell you something about the games. They suck. They pop out, they scratch, and they skip. None of Nintendo's cartrages do that. Disks scratch. That's

the way of life. For the PSP to do such a thing with a PORTABLE device, where scratches and falls and breaks are abundant is foolish and overamibious.

Does the nintendo cartages do this?

Where do the get scratced? Right fliping here:

I would agree with you there if I had the problem. But I don't, I don't know why it happens to others but never has anything happened like that to my PSP. The DS is flawless? I don't think so...

"The Nintendo DS is not without its problems, including some difficulty simultaneously seeing both screens clearly due to parallax -- the shifting of the view when seen from different angles -- depending on which screen you are looking at in a given moment. If looking at the top screen, the bottom screen will seem to dim in comparison, and vice versa.

The stylus is far too small, especially for adults with large hands. Stubby pencils that are distributed to fill out forms at government offices are larger, thicker, and therefore much more manageable and easier to use.

The keys on the virtual keyboard are too small and require a high degree of accuracy when typing a message. A longer stylus would mitigate this problem.

The Nintendo DS locked up completely about a minute into the PictoChat session. It gave no indication of the problem. The only method of unfreezing and recovering from the system error was to shut down and reboot the machine.

In the span of an hour, three of the six Nintendo DS units froze in a similar manner while running three different applications, which suggests a firmware or hardware problem. Keep in mind that these were late pre-production models. If it is a firmware issue a software update should be able to fix the problem. If there is something wrong with the hardware, that is much more serious.

Finally, an ergonomic issue arises when playing games in stylus/touchscreen mode. The weight of the unit has to be supported by one hand, which leads to a sore hand after extended use. Nintendo says it will resolve the problem with a stylus that you can strap to your thumb, giving players the ability to use the stylus while holding the Nintendo DS with both hands."

Wonder if? Wonder if? Let's look at the fliping facts:

DS doesn't have any of this over priced, expencive, slapped on bullpoop hardware that just trys to destract your mind from their bullpoop games.

It doesn't have playlists.
It only plays from alphebetical order.
It's hard to reach such a state.


I'd rather cut the bullpoop and just buy an ipod.

Distract your mind from gaming? Lol/ I don't care about playlists, heck if i'm listening to a song i'm ok with that. Man you people are so lazy, all you have to do is select a song or even leave it at random, surely you won't mind that if you put the songs you like on the PSP.

others need some chords or huge machine connected to them to work

I take it that you all have a PC, and a USB link cable, maybe some songs too. All you have to do is connect with the USB link and upload the songs. Its not hard and it won't make you bankrupt. That's like saying you can't even be asked to put the DS's charger on, or even get the stylus out of the back.

Who gives a flip about your oppinion? Anyone who says the games of now are better than the games of old ARN'T REAL GAMERS.

Who gives a flip about your opinion? If you loved your old games so much go and stick with your snes or whatever you had.

So? The human eve can only distinguish 32 bit color, which is 260,000 colors. Anything else is just fliping bullpoop..

And the human eye can see the difference between high and low resolution and the colours do show a big difference.

A game list which 1) Most of them arn't out yet. 2) Most of them have problems. 3) They have gotten bad ratigns because of their cheap, rushed designs and gameplay

The current games list of PSP is much better than the DS as review scores prove. IF anything the DS games were rushed, because most of them are rubbish.
