Guy Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 The DS graphics are horrible, PSP graphics will own them any day. Anyway, PSP has a wide selection of games, and a portable movie player. The DS games are mainly Mario games (why did i give that a capital letter?), which get a bit boring. (Get? Why am I saying get? They ARE ALREADY boring) ~Guy RIP TET "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." - Friedrich Nietzsche Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unknownmasterofnothing Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 If you're buying a handheld for games, get a nintendo ds. If you've never played psx, get breath of fire III and psp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parabola Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 (Get? Why am I saying get? They ARE ALREADY boring) Objectiveness FTW. I am a hardcore PC-only-ist, yet the games I have spent the most time on over the past month have been emulated versions of Mario 3 and Super Mario World. If you think graphics are all that make a system then that's fine. You're just wrong, is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harryp0tt3rules Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Both systems have fair graphics, and their up and down points. I had a DS when they 1st came out, but returned it because I never used it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadburys_egg Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 How is the DS innovative? well... the dual screen and stylus makes it more fun and makes it something different than all other hand held devises There you go. The PSP has replicas of PS1 games, the DS has new games with a new interface. +1 for the DS from me. DS has new games? HAHA. I just looked at the Play.com main DS page. It was full of old games and generic movie games. Mario, Star Wars, Need for Speed and The Sims. The PSP doesn't have games replica of PS1, in the same way that DS doesn't have Gamecube replicas. They're new, but not original. As I say alot around here now; being unique doesn't make it better. Personally I think buying UMD movies at ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã15 each to watch on a tiny screen is a rip off, when most of the dvds I buy are under ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã10...would rather buy a portable dvd player. Would you honestly be willing to lug it around with you? Although the screen on a PSP is "tiny", it's very generous for it's overall size. Besides, think about how big portable DVD players are, they aren't exactly going to be a whole world of size different. I mean, why not just drag around a HDTV and whole surround sound with you? But, if you really want to know, PSP gets my vote. It's just so much more versatile. Let's say i'm playing a game during a train ride. But, it's about to stop. What do I do? Turn it off and then just wait? Nope, pause the game and turn on some music. But I have a stop at an internet cafe, do I turn the game back on? No way, that will just make me forget about what I ordered. I can switch on the Wi-fi and have a quick browse. And once i've finished, I can close the browser and switch the music back on. Or even if the cafe didn't have a wi-fi hotspot, I can flick on a movie, or perhaps an episode of a show I wanted to watch. With a battery life of 7 hours, far longer than I plan to be out, I don't see how you can lose. I don't care about innovative gaming, many people I know who bought a DS lost their stylus. One of whom actually dropped their DS and snapped the screen off. X vs Y topics are so stupid and repetitive. You get a few posts and it then turns to childish bickering.

andufusthebronze Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Weeeeeeeell, I own a D.S and it's ok. It has a few games thats fun wears down quite quickly and the actual thing has a few flaws. My touch screen is scratched even though I'm really careful, and it can be a bit slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pompey_spud Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I wish people would stop saying that a.) The DS has crap graphics and b.) The PSP has rubbish games. Neither is true. With the DS, there are some very very good looking games, things like Metroid and Nintendogs. They are made by Nintendo themselves, who are obviously going to go all out on their own games. However things such as Fifa and Spongebob come along, which are churned out by Ubisoft and EA and the like every year, without any care taken at all, and they do look crap. Also, the PSP doesnt have terrible games. A lot are remakes of ps1 games, (Wipeout, ridge racer etc.) but this isnt necesarilly a bad thing. Lumines, Wipeout, Star Wars Battlefront, all amazingly fun games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoda Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 DS has new games? HAHA. I just looked at the Play.com main DS page. It was full of old games and generic movie games. Mario, Star Wars, Need for Speed and The Sims. A PSP owner complaining about the DS' game library? :lol: You should check Gamefaqs' top PSP games to see that over half of them are game conversions. How many of the top DS games are? None. They're new, but not original. As I say alot around here now; being unique doesn't make it better. Only that PSP games are neither. From reviews I've read there are 3 purchase worthy games. It's just so much more versatile... My DS does everything you wrote your PSP can do and it cost me less. With a battery life of 7 hours, far longer than I plan to be out Try 4-5 (which the DS doubles on the 2 lowest brightness settings). One of whom actually dropped their DS and snapped the screen off. The DS is not perfectly built, but the PSP is built cheaply and breaks easily. You can get one with buttons that break easily and a screen with as much as 10 dead pixels. O To quote Maddox: Sony's strategy towards portable gaming seems to be to take the same [cabbage]ty first generation Playstation games that weren't great to begin with, and make them portable so now we can take an example of Sony's utter-inability-to-stop-sucking with us everywhere we go.

Markup Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 A psp with a screen of more than 5 dead pixels can be returned for a new one. There is also a video which flashes different colours to bring dead pixels back to life. Who is stupid enough to drop their psp? Well I have #-o But nothing broke.

Parabola Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 There is also a video which flashes different colours to bring dead pixels back to life. Also frequently referred to as stuck pixels, dead pixels represent pixels within the LCD display that do not function. Dead pixels are not repairable on an individual level You can't fix dead pixels. Stuck pixels are different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deloriagod Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 The DS graphics are horrible, PSP graphics will own them any day. Well the Xbox has better graphics than the N64. Graphics don't make the game. I can't believe so many people are so worried about graphics. Would you play an (educational) game intended for small children because it's graphics were superior to your computer's graphics? I doubt it. Gameplay > Graphics Who is stupid enough to drop their psp? Well I have #-o But nothing broke. Not many people purposely drop their electronics. :roll: Internet Marketing For Newbies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megakiller32 Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I have a psp, and my brother has a DS, and i think that the psp is much better.

Parabola Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Someone name me some good games for boys which we'll enjoy on the DS :XD: (Excluding Metroid prime hunters :-# ) Why not focus on what games are fun rather than what games are for what gender (which is a puerile concept anyway)? Do you need to prove your manliness by playing games 'for boys'? That would be pretty insecure. I have played on New SMB, Electroplankton and Brain Age on a friend's DS - does that make me a girl?

I know TONS of guys who have DS's. And I think you should refrain from comments about how a system is for one gender or the other. That's like saying the PS2 is for males and girls should go play the Gamecube. Of course, I know girls who have DS's but I know very few people who own or would even think of buying a PSP. And do you really want me to name some games that males will enjoy? None. You will never find a game that everyone enjoys. Guess what? There are no games for the PSP that everyone enjoys either. Next time you post, be sure you aren't being a sexist moron. And don't let Issy see you being one either. Internet Marketing For Newbies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
