PSP or nintendo DS

[NeoMaster]

So wait, let me get this straight, you bring in my price statement into the argument to make yourself sound cool and then bash me when I correct you?

 

Why must you be so offended you childish baffoon. Take your PSP fanboyism somewhere else. Have I said DS is better than PSP? No, in fact, the sole reason that DS games are in the $50 dollar range is insanity and I refuse to buy it. I've stated that PSP games isn't worth the money because a stronger and better version exists on the console and to me more enjoyable in console form. That's why I choose not to support PSP.

 

I fully understand that multi disc sharing between PSP's is extremely difficult so don't give me your jibberish about the logic behind it.

 

Once again, do not take things so seriously. (case and point, the $50 crap). I'm not saying your going to have to take another mortgage on your house by buying PSP games, I'm saying that PSP games are too expensive, actually I believe any game over $40 dollars is expensive.

 

Yeah, so DS games = N64 quality and is equally priced to PSP games. So what? It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what's the better deal. So don't buy it, that's what I choose to do. If I believe PSP software should be lowered, then that's my beliefs. Trying to sort of the reasons why they are highly priced and comparing that to DS' pricing scheme is just wasting your time. I know it, you know, so stop recycling your damn posts.

Games need to get cheaper. I'm glad a fellow canadian can see it as clear as me. Espeically since we live in these ripoff regions. I'm starting to like you now. Stop it.

Correct me? Please. It was a misunderstanding of currency on both sides. Since your talking CND dollars and think anything over $40 is too expensive, then there are many games for the DS you won't buy either, correct? Since there a fair number of DS games above that price.

Fine... whatever. You just don't get it. There a lot of games for the PSP that are NOT on consoles. And as I stated before you buy games for a portable because you want a portable game. The game also being on console has little to nothing to do with that.

Ahem, most PSP games imo don't seem inspiried enough. Sure you can have the few "ZOMG THIS GAME ROCKAWKEAC@!!!11" and "THE FSCK IS THIS SHEIT!?" but imo the fact remines that most of the PSP games do look and feel uninspired. Expect for Wipeout Pure, that game looks like your on speed and high at the same time.

I've got Wipeout Pure, but haven't played it much yet. I've mostly been playing Twisted Metal: Head On. I'm a huge TM fan (and fan of vehicular combat in general), so I find it to be a lot of fun.

I've looked it over, and there does appear to be some excellent PSP games. But most of them aren't out yet. I'm especially looking forward to Rengoku or something. It has random dungeons! I love random dungeons!

[Inky]

so my order still hasn't shipped grrr. I went to toy's r us to get the kids easter stuff this morning and they have stacks of PSPs over there. I went ahead and baught it there. now I am canceling my order, if they don't cancel it I'll have to do the old switch return heheh.

haven't played it yet. gotta go to work in a few.

well i personally will rather go for the psp hands down, it offers more then what ds will ever do and its clear that ds is going no where (and if you don't agree, then ask yourself this: why is nintendo planning to release a new gameboy this year?).

 

some of you can rant about psp games have a "better" version on the ps2 but the main point is to have good games on the go and if its great on the console, you can damn near get the same great experience on the go and i'll be damned that you wouldn't want that

 

i won't be buying one anytime soon as i find it to be a bit pricey but i only say that since i got other things on mind to buy and price wise its like i get one or the other.

[Agozer]

Personally, I don't care if the majority of the PSP's launch titles are either ports or remakes of the originals; they're still fun, no matter what the medium might be.

DS is the stepping stone while the new Gameboy is the true sucessor! Prican, stfu.

 

Yeah i'm whipping out the n00bsikikllzzz?12wqw111

The DS was the product of two intoxicated individuals...similar to what K'Dash is...

 

LMAO Just kidding seriously. Hoo hee hoo haa.

you have to admit though the touch screen is a great idea and changes how u can play games. This is something we need in the market right now.. new ideas. you say its stupid right now but down the road when the psp 2 has a touch screen your gone be like wow why didnt someone think of this before...

It's innovative if nothing else. When I read reviews of games like Yoshi Touch and Go I am a bit intrigued. But I can't see myself playing a game like that very long. I just think drawing clouds could really only hold my attention for so long. A lot of the DS games seem like they would be a lot of fun with multiple players (this is if I could actually convince my friends to play a game where you draw clouds), but rather boring when alone. And that is a bit of a problem. One of the main reasons I even buy handhelds is so I have something to do when sitting in hotel rooms on business trips that I take on a regular basis. And I would just honestly take games like Twisted Metal or Wipeout Pure in that situation over most of the DS games anyday.

 

Oh yeah, and even if the PSP had a touch screen I have serious doubts as to if I would even use it. I am rather anal about any sort of screen. I find the idea of touching screens completely abhorrent. My TV, PC monitor, GBA, and now PSP screens are all spotless at all times. I can't stand any sort of finger print or scratches. So I have serious doubts as to whether I could even bring myself to touch the screen.

 

And on that note, for those of you that do own a DS, have you seen any signs of wear and tear from using the stylus on the touch screen? That was one of the things that concerned me about the idea when the DS was first announced. I can't help but picture those electronic signature dispays that places like Best Buy or UPS delivery men use... they are always scratched and faded to hell.

well ive had mine for a long time.. the stylus has a really smooth round tip. You may see lines on the screen after using it but soon as u wipe the screen they are gone. The screen looks just like it did the day i bought it.
