It is wrong to vote twice with another account. If you didn't, sorry for assuming things. Mv, calm down a little bit. There is no need to call anyone a moron, or a #&$#&$#. Everyone does have an opinion, and has the right to express that opinion. I respect that, and have no problem with that. The problem I do have is when it turns into an arrgument. A debate is ok, but a flamming war is not.

Also yoda, if you want a fair poll don't say this:

So please don't think PSP bound to be well better than the DS! Go for the handheld with experience, thats right grab a DS and join the fun.

It sounds like you are telling us what to think.

So that you can play games when you are not at your house. Like when you are on an airplane.

Sproogle - Yes nate can have an opinion but there is no point anyone creating seperate accounts for multiple computers when they have nothing to loose from using there main account on both computers


Didn't know that. Sorry.

QUOTE
and um ask ANYONE WITH A BRAIN this (who is neutral) the DS is the best handheld around...what would you buy the DS or the PSP? obviosly EVERYONE who is neutral goes and gets/votes DS
please try to think before posting sproogle thats all i ask


I honetly don't know that you meant by that.

QUOTE
then you just think that we ALL like the DS..am i not allowed to think different..are you saying i'm not ALLOWED to have an opinion what does that remind you of...you telling me to let nate have an opinion and then saying mine is BS...


I never told you what to think, I just stated why I like the DS. That is the point of a debate, right?

QUOTE
then you go on about wifi...did yoda asy it had wifi


No, but it does. I own one. Trust me, I know.

QUOTE
...no and if it has then both PSP and DS would need to be at a wifi hotspot to make use of it so whats 'moronic' about that


It's just that the PSP has kind of been made out to be this uber-mega-awesome system that you can play wirelessly anywhere because of the system specs. I was just disproving that.

QUOTE
then you say about the touch screen...um a computer screen is alot bigger so you can be more accurate..the smaller the screen the harder it is to be accurate especially when using your fingers rather than a mouse.


You are right, I should not have brought this up, since it is a matter of personal opinion, not facts.
QUOTE
where did ANYONE get $300 from???


Um, that's the general price for the system. I was saying I don't want to pay more money than the origonal $300 for a little extra they should just put in.

QUOTE
then you say DS doesn't use batteries..well i am sorry but yoda made it look like it did


That was a misunderstanding. Sorry.

QUOTE
if you read yodas post he made using discs seem like a good thing as DS uses discs over cartridges. So you saying cartridges better than discs shoots the DS in the foot as well as all DS games use discs.


No, the DS uses small chip-like cartriges. I was saying that usually discs are less portable since they are easier to damage or scratch.

QUOTE
At the end you say be nice after insulting me..you no what sproogle your a %$*$^& ok a small $£^%^ and say be nice after insulting me...


Sorry if you got offended by me calling you a double moron. For one, it was a stupid insult, so I figured you whouln't take it seriously. Second, I put a: bluetongue.gif there, 'cause it was a joke. Sorry if you took it the wrong way.

QUOTE
NOTE TO SPROOGLE...THINK BEFORE YOU TYPE IT MAKES YOU LOOK CLEVER EVEN IF YOUR NOT.


Now, don't put me down for insulting if you post things like this...

And could you please spend a little more time to make your posts a tad more readable? They come out fuzzy sometimes. Thanks biglaugh.gif

The "good games" on DS will probably just all be sequels of the "good games" on Gamecube. All the "good games" on Gamecube for all you guys are just Japanese Anime crap, so on the games front I've always liked Sony, and I'll stick with them. I don't know a whole lot about them, but like someone said, there's no point in spendng loads of money on somethign you'll only ever play on a train, so I'll probably not get either...

Sorry when I put that post below the poll praising the DS if you will it was just to air my opinion but I can see I should have written something below about the PSP.
I thought the DS did use discs? Guess not. Its like a quote fest out here though.
Cya for a while guys.

I think that the Battery life for PSP is 2 hours of movie watcing. I think thats where some people got that 2 hour number. And maybe with the thumb attackment it would make the touch screen a little easier.

The PSP has 4-6 hours of battery life. The DS has 10-14 depending on what you're doing. PSP has games like metal gear acid, turning a good game into a turn based strategy with cards. DS has metroid prime: hunters, and it is not very awkward as I have played the game. Mneh!

PSP is currently out in japan for ? Yen. Importable to the US for $375(min) importable to UK for £175(min). Of course when the PSP actually comes out in the countries prices will be about half that (hopes).

http://forums.audioh...30192#post30192

Sony Computer Entertainment Inc., announced today that it would release its new handheld video game system, the PSP-1000 (PlayStation Portable), on December 12, 2004, at a recommended retail price of 19,800 yen ($186 USD) for the Japanese market.
(bit late but theres the price so expect $200tops for US release)

oh and tada to this little gem

http://www.digitalba...d=1541&zoneid=3 (its gta for the psp)

Sony and Rockstar have confirmed that a PSP version of GTA is in the works and should be available in time for the system’s UK launch sometime in late march. Rockstar’s Leeds Studios is currently working on the project which is said to feature an all new PSP exclusive area set in Liberty City. There is some confusion as to whether this is just a new area, or if it is a ‘new’ version of Liberty City created specifically for the PSP
