PSP VS. DS
« on: November 30, 2004, 03:49:20 am »
This has been raging on for some time now. People have been trying to determine which will be better. Which do you think will fit your personal taste better? I honestly do think the PSP will be my favorite. Not because of the gadgets, but because of the GAMES! Both handhelds will have a Viewtiful Joe game, but the PSPs will do doubt be bigger, look better, and most likely have better control. Plus, there's Metal Gear Acid, Burnout (a great game.. PLAY BURNOUT 3 TODAY!!), and an awesome puzzle game called Lumines. However, it is too early to tell. But I am asking whic you think will fit your personal taste better, or which you have a better feeling about. But I may the DS anyway. I won't for Christmas, but if I end up liking it better than the PSP, then I'll buy one in March when everyone is too busy with the PSP. I can swoop in and grab a DS then.

Then there are the hardware problems. WIth the PSP, I mean. The DS apparently has no flaws as of now except for lack of an analog stick. There's one on the PSP, but it apparently "bites hard". But you do get used to it. Oh, and let's not mention the battery life on the PSP. I don't mind using the adapter when I'm at home, but what about when I'm on a road trip? That's a problem. I hope they fix it in time for the American release.

I've been preaching about how much better the PSP is for a while now. But since I heard that it's battery life is two hours, I don't know how it can be good. When I play a game, I'll play it for three hours straight without a pee break. So I have to say that the DS will own.

That's why you buy sets of rechargeable batteries. It's about games, so that's why i'm buying PSP.

What kind? Is it lithium?

I don't mind plugging the psp into the wall with an adapter when i'm home.  4-6 hours is pretty ok i guess. 2 sets of batteries...i'll be fine.

Lithium ion, I think.

2 hours, not 4-6. That's nothing on the road.

Blah, I wasn't impressed by either of them. For $149.99 I think not.

The price is right (no pun intended). I've gotta say DS, the messeging and touch screen is 1337. Plus, I like Nintendo games a lot more.

Gamspot says 4-6 for normal games. 1-2 for more graphically impressive games.
