    I come here expecting to find a post about ending the handheld wars, and instead i get "they have to end cause the DS is better". I'm dissapointed.

      ok...

      The PSP might be more powerful, but look at how it affects the battery life. You can't go on a 3 hour car trip with the thing! Since the graphics are kinda a cross between PS1 and PS2, you might as well buy a normal consle if your handheld has to be plugged in all the time! I DO have a point!

        QFE. The guy who started this thread is just another DS fanboy trying to argue about a handheld device that came out almost a year ago. Put it to rest n00b.

          Homebrew and emulation is better on PSP, further developed. The only reason I would buy either of them.

          Oh and please, let this thread die. What use is this? Different opinions furiate and bring more opinions and the cycle never ends. Besides, this is the same thread from forever ago. The same everything.

            PSP:
            Pros: Pretty graphics. Some good games( I would only really buy it for lumines), Can do anything. You could probably find a way to control your toaster if there was someone that actually wanted to that.
            Cons: Expensive. You do not want to drop this thing!Battery life.

            DS
            Pros Super Inovative. Cheap. Some good games(Mr. Driller, for me). You get to touh the screen, that's pretty cool. Picto-chat, i guess. If you drop it, it's probably not gonna break the first time. Battery life better than the PSP's
            Cons: Graphics not as good, Can only play games(but that's what it's really supposed to do, not make toast).

            Overall: PSP if you want the preety stuff and have the money to dish out on it. DS if you just need a way to play games at skool, or car trip, or just needs a handheld.
            I would get: DS, 'cuz I'm poor

              Everywhere I post, it's the same thing. MapleStory: "What mage is the best?" Here's the answer.

              CHOOSE THE ONE YOU THINK IS GOING TO BE THE MOST FUN FOR YOUR TASTES.

              And that is all I will say about THAT.

                lol

                You guys kept surprisingly calm, though. :O

                PS: I hate the touchscreen thing. I haven't had much of a chance to play either. All the Best Buys/Wal-Marts have WarioWare Touched (WHICH I FUCKING HATE AND WANT TO RIP OUT OF THE DS AND THROW AGAINST THE WALL! And I liked the old WarioWare, too...) and I've only played some racing game on PSP (and I hate racing games...). However, of the two, I hated the need to use the touchscreen the most, because it didn't respond well at all to finger touching, but I couldn't use the stylus (and wouldn't want to, anyway) since it was at the store. *shrug* I don't need a portable system anyway.

                PPS: Have you ever seen a Game.com? Thinking back, it's kinda like a cross between PSP and DS, but really old. It is wide and has lots of buttons and features you don't need like a PSP, but it used cartridges and had a touchscreen like the DS. Weird... o_O
                So I've gone completely slack-ass and haven't done any work on creating games. =(

                In less-depressing news, I got a job for an online business (which sells non-electronic games, of all things!) which has taught me a lot about marketing online and all that jazz.

                So now I'm on Twitter @NoahWright.
                And I write the blog for their website.

                Plus I do cool programming in-house that you'll never see. =O

                  Sony requires add-ons for your network while Nintendo made a deal with McDonalds to have wireless access points in all of their restraunts. They both support worldwide gaming
                  What add-ons are you talking about?

                  McDonalds is such a great hangout spot. No really. I'm not being sarcastic at all. I love to have kids screaming in my damn ear. I love how everything is f*cking greasy. I love how disgusting their food is. It's a great environment for gaming. What a great deal that is!

                  Your argument lacks crediblity thanks to the lack of proof you have to back up anything you have stated other than the obvious: the DS has better batterylife. Two-to-three hours on one charge? Hahah, not quite. More like 4-5 on a full charge. I will admit it, I have a bias towards the PSP since I own one. I have never run into a problem with the batterylife since I am not one who spends 4 hours a day playing a handheld device.

                  Averaging 18 dead pixels? Never head that one before. My PSP does have two or three dead pixels, but it is hardly noticable.

                  Although, I do have to say, I dont play my PSP as often as I would like thanks to a lack in titles that interest me. LUMINES was awesome. Great, great game, but it gets boring after a while as any game would. However, I dont feel I would have been better off buying DS, the DS's line up isnt very impressive either.

                  So that's why Moogy wins. They both suck as it is.

                    I must say I like the DS most. It had a rocky start but lately there have been some top quality games using the touch screen to it's best. I have had alot of fun with these. I rarely put my DS down.

                    My PSP was fun at the beggining and I used to play it alot while my DS sat with dust. Now my PSP has been sitting in the dust as alot of the PSP games seem unintresting and cookie cutter to me right now. My PSP is effectivly an emulation handheld right now and even being able to play old games hasn't pulled me away from the DS.

                    Who cares about processors, powers and graphics. Gameplay and fun factor is the most important thing. I really can not see why you guys are talking about processor power and specs. The games are what count.

                    Alot of you fail for noting specs instead of fun games you can play on them.

                      Come to think of it Jewpin, can you find me an arguement that Moogy lost? Seriously.

                      Um, I don't like the PSP.
                      The DS is cool because Yoshis Touch and Go is cool. But technology wise, They both suck.

                          I used to be quite the PSP hater myself, but I've calmed down from that. I still think the DS is better (for me) simply because it has the ability to do so many things the PSP can't in terms of gameplay. If you want superb graphics, you might as well go play on a console. A handheld system is supposed to be for games. Want music? Bring an iPod. Want movies? Bring a portable DVD player. Also, Nintendo has some excellent, very unique games coming out for it. For example: you couldn't play Trauma Center on a PSP. Remember, this is all my opinion on why I prefer the DS. It shouldn't and doesn't apply to everybody. Everyone wants something different.

                          Still, I know I will eventually buy a PSP, but not until the groundbreaking game that I absolutely must have comes out for it, just like KH made me buy a PS2.

                          And really, the fighting does have to stop. It's all preference.

                            I own both, DS has better games, sorry to tell you. Ya, the graphics are worse, but yea...

                            psp is good, because of its whole movie/ graphic thing ( and web browser 0.o ), but the games kinda suck though. I own 3x more DS games than psp, but i do have about 5 psp movies (i.e hitchikers ^_^)
