The PSP still has a better screen

PLUS,

The PSP internet browser knocks any other handheld browser's socks off, I have a PDA, the internet browser sucks.

It is more expensive its a pocket pc its also more powerful for all of the psps's functions (apart from gaming) i use it at school with my laptop and btw the browser on this in true vga mode is so much better than the psp's one

oh and it can play games very well but thats what my ds is for im just saying this is why i do not need a psp

I understand...I guess we're all biased to the handheld we have (including me)

P.S. Pardon me for asking, but what's up with the elephant? lol

From a DS owner I'd say PSP. DS really dosen't have any good games period. The only one I like right now is Advance Wars : Dual Strike. Otherwise the DS has nothing, I'm sure he'd enjoy a PSP more at his age.

I'm not really into handheld consoles but if I had to choose between the PSP or DS I would go for a DS I also voted for this in the polls.

MH_prophet · 05-09-2005, 03:14 PM

Hmmm is there any way to see the results without voting? Ah well, I'll vote for the DS so I can see the results, just minus one from its votes.

thought psp would blow ds out of water in the poll, but watever. My bro has both a ds and psp (prbly sells drugs to get them) and i personally like the psp more (not a fanboy of either) because of the graphix and multimedia capabilities right out of the box. Plus it had online (infastructure) before Ds, not talking wi-fi here people. And yes, touching games is very gimicky, if u want to touch things, touch yourself, i find it much more entertaining. The games arent AAA, but they are more straight-forward than the DS, still fun, and it looks more sexy.

get him the PSP because I think the PSP appeals to older gamers while the DS Does appeal alot more to younge gamers

Im 27 and I like the DS....

Can't beleive what i am going to say here.

I got board of the DS after the navalty of the touch screen wore off.

I have had more fun with the PSP in one week than I ever did with DS.

The DS now bores me to tears as the ONLY game i like is Mario 64. and the only games that intrst me are MP Hunt, Animal crossing and Resi when that finaly comes.

So far with Brotherhood of the blade IMO is much better than any current DS games or any up and coming relesies.

Medievil again better thatn any thing the DS offers ATM

F1 one is very good to a bit more arcady to my liking but a lot better than Ridge Racer, and other racing games on the DS at present.

Like I say I can't beleive i am saying this but i would personaly go for the PSP even though I am not a real sony fan.

The Wife has my DS now and she is very happy with it but i ws left disapointed yet again by nintnedo after playing mario 64.

His birthday's come and gone, and after looking over this thread and thinking about it, I got him a DS. He really likes it thus far, plus now we can play wifi with each other!

Feel free to keep discussing the PSP and DS though!

From being an ex owner of a Ds, I'd say PSP. I got a DS for Christmas. It was fun at first then I got tired of playing Mario and Metroid. I got a PSP and like it. I'm waiting for some RPGs and MGA2. The DS did appeal to me, but I like the PSP because it has nice graphics and I like some portable Ridge Racer,and Midnight Club 3 that looks good!

I love my PSP so much! (How much do you love it?!) I love it so much I traded it in for a DS! HA HA HA HA. The PSP in my opinion was a sony hype machine. The refresh rate on their "MASSIVE SCREEN" destroyed games because it was so slow, and I think that analog stick almost crippled my hand. I'd play it for 30 minutes and my hand would be popping, start falling asleep and I hate that pins and needles feel, and in general I wouldnt be having fun. Also if they could make a game that is worth playing that would be another thing, unless you want to use it for a media device, dont buy it for gaming. Yes I am a little bitter over the PSP and Sony in general, because they promised the world and all I got was a mound of dirt. I waited for this machine, I was excited. Biggest mistake I ever did.

Looks like the PSP is ahead for now (21-19).

On a side note the PSP did outsell the DS in North America this year. That is definitely a big victory for the PSP.
