PSP owns the DS

Posted by on April 01, 2005 at 05:15 PM | #

when it comes down to it, its the games that will determine who wins. DUH!!! Then comes screen size. Features come last.

The end.

Yeah PSP kills the DS. You forgot to put that PSP comes with Spiderman 2 UMD.

On hardware alone the PSP wins but, if the ds can show a real use for the touch screen with a killer game… then who knows.

Posted by on April 02, 2005 at 03:22 AM | #

PSP Will Commite RoadKill On DS. It Has The Games, Music, Features, And Man That Beautyful Screen. It Only Took Sony One Shot At Making A Portable Gaming\Entertainment Device, Its Taken Nintendo 15 Years And They Still Cant Match Up With What Sony Has Done. DS Sucks Balls!

Then it also depends on what you want to give your 7 year old child…a PSP with trigger happy games where your child can learn about the wonderful arsenal that they can use in school, or Mario on DS.

Posted by albundyhere on April 02, 2005 at 12:48 PM | #

Thats a good point. But as the world becomes more portable and digital, which one will win out? I thinkt he PSP will. I think the two are very different. The DS is simply a gaming system, while the PSP is obviously just a portable media device.

I’m sure the DS would come before the PSP on a small child’s list, but on a 14-30 year old range, I’m sure the PSP would come first.

I’m not saying that Nintendo is going after a yoiunger audience (which has been brought up, but not in this conversation), but rather, they’re going to stick to what they know, and what works for them.

Posted by on April 02, 2005 at 03:52 PM | #

It depends on the games almost completely. DS has better more innovative games. The games on the PSP can already be played on PS2 and even though the PSP has a decently sized screen, it is often not big enough to play more complex PS2 games.

DS is my pick.

Posted by on April 02, 2005 at 04:49 PM | #

ds comes with a metroid demo and the games r cheaper ds will rule

Posted by on April 02, 2005 at 04:58 PM | #

Even the DS is $100 cheaper than the Sony PSP, there is a reason. The PSP is labeled as a portable media entertainment device. So with considerbly better graphics engine, higher rated games, and multifunction capabilities, the PSP is the better device hands down.

Posted by on April 03, 2005 at 01:06 PM | #

From my experience, buying a 10 in 1 is much worse then just buying the 1 thing you really want even though it only does one thing.

Posted by on April 03, 2005 at 02:23 PM | #

PSP not only because of features, but also because the games are so much better.

Posted by Bootes on April 03, 2005 at 07:30 PM | #

Sony can suck my… uh nevermind. Whether you think one has better graphics than the other, both look crappy compared to current TV consoles, mainly Xbox. PS2 is laughable IMO, which is what the PSP is. If you want a portable PS2, go ahead and choose that.

I have neither and plan on getting neither unless something changes my mind. Depends on how fun the games are.

Posted by on April 04, 2005 at 08:49 PM | #

DS sucks! i had 2 before the PSP came out, got 1 PSP launch day and realized that PSP owns, sold both my DS’s for 75 bucks to get a second PSP… just cause its the AWESOME!

DS SUCKS MY NUTS!!!!!!!!!! IT BLOWS ASS!!!!! THE MAKER OF DS SHOULD BE SLAPPED!!!! The psp definatly hands down wins with no competition….the ds sucks and psp rules!!!!....the psp has better everything than the ds….. the ds is for little kids….and faggot nerds who love nintendo….psp wins without a doubt

Posted by on April 08, 2005 at 03:07 PM | #

PSP sucks!! DS rules the world so you stupid Sony freaks go and cry cause DS kicks PSP’s ***!!

Posted by on April 11, 2005 at 02:30 PM | #

The DS outsold the PSP by 800000 units in Japan. Why? Because PSP just sucks.

The PSP is a piece of ####. It breaks if a breeze comes along, there are problems with the UMD popping out, not only is it ugly, but the games on it absolutely suck, especially when compared to the games for the DS.

Sorry, but you can all the PSP great all you want, it sucks….period. Die hard Sony fans are turning away from it.

Say all you want about the DS, you are just showing how ignorant you are. I think it’s funny that most of the people shooting it down don’t even own one, how dumb do you have to be to do that?

Posted by on April 11, 2005 at 02:33 PM | #

You guys are going to grow up to be sad, lonely virgins. Also I wouldn’t expect Nintendo to go down in flames like you guys say, some people aren’t willing to give their clumsy child a $249.99 gadget, just so it will be dropped on the carpet and break apart. The DS is a gaming system and the PSP is just pre-existing hardware just crammed into a fragile piece of plastic.

Posted by on April 11, 2005 at 03:02 PM | #

PSP is overpriced. It’s only woth around maybe $100.

Posted by on April 12, 2005 at 04:07 PM | #

I hate sony I own a Gcube and about 4 or 5 generations of gameboys but im gonna have to saythat PSP owns ds’s butt the DS seriosly is a ganbot advance with a fancy screen that never does anythin DS seriosly sucks.

VOTE: PSP hands down

Posted by on April 14, 2005 at 01:00 PM | #

i meant Gameboy not ganbot

Posted by on April 14, 2005 at 01:04 PM | #

The DS is not a gameboy, stupidhead. Just because it can play GBA games doesn’t mean it’s a gameboy.

Posted by on April 14, 2005 at 03:44 PM | #

I just bought a DS here in Norway and it’s great. There are not to many games out yet but think of the possibilities. Imagine playing Super Smash Brothers on your DS. The DS will have fun and innovative games and the PSP will not. FYI: DS RULES!!!!!!!!

Yes, the PSP sucks! DS rules!!!!

Posted by on April 17, 2005 at 03:35 PM | #

I own both… I am making an objective interpretation that is based upon owning both platforms and a large percentage of the available games for each:

I firmly think that the PSP is a better machine. I like my DS as much for it’s ability to legacy play my GBA carts, and some of the integration of the touch-screen has good potential. The huge difference to me is in capability. This goes along with the lines that while some features are similar, the PSP has true WiFi, USB2 port, Memory-stick support, and much better graphics processing hardware. (Not to mention, the plastics and build quality of the PSP is second to none)

I own Ridge Racer for DS, and PSP, the PSP version is far more satisfying, and plays much more elegantly. I also enjoy some of the Mario DS touch ability, and warioware touched etc. are interesting.

You will be able to surf on a PSP, download music and movies on your PSP, and even check e-mail very soon. In addition, you will be able to add keyboards and other important add-ons due to its USB port.

Bottom line, while I like both (and my mom gave me my DS for Christmas)... My DS will probably go to my Daughter, (an 8-year old) and I will move more into my PSP (being now almost 40 years old).. It is my impression that there is a market for both platforms,. and comparing the two is not realistic… they are two different machines with two different market and capability. Apple to Oranges. All of these “PSP’s suck and DS RULEZ” posts are not objective, and do nothing to better-inform a reader as to what each platform brings to the table.

I like both, I prefer my PSP (perhaps because I am older) and while I like my PSP Ridge Racer the best, I may have a hard time giving up my DS to my Daughter. (For Mario DS), but she does like Pokemon Dash (grin)

Anyway… to me, my objectivity may wear off when I see Gran Turismo 4 Mobile for my PSP, and what future games may come for it.. until then, I will try to remain objective. It is still in my opionion the best handheld gaming platform. PS2 quality may not be the best in the world, but it is the best in the palm of my hadn right now.

Mr. Objectivo

Posted by on April 18, 2005 at 06:49 AM | #

This is Sayit2mygun again and I agree with Mr. Objectivo. My brother is probally going to get a PSP.
The only problems I have with getting PSP the costs. In Europe the stuff is way more than what it costs in the States. The DS for me cost $215(1500 NOK) and the games cost 379 NOK($55) and that is on sale. You can only imagine the cost off the PSP the memory cards and the games. Money, money, money, where are kids gunna get the stuff? Grown -ups here don’t care much for consels and games so how is Sony gunna sell its PSP? For an average European I say the DS is a good choice but I can’t choose for u can I.

Best Regards,
Sayit2mygun

woops on the third line its The only problem I have with getting the PSP are the costs.

FYI: Woops

i am not gonna pay 250 dollars for a psp, what is that a joke anyway i don’t want the strap, headphones or any other junk just give me the handheld

Posted by on April 19, 2005 at 02:52 PM | #

I have the DS, it is PORTABLE.
Why buy a PSP when the battery life is awful and spends most of its time charging up from the mains?

Posted by on April 20, 2005 at 02:51 AM | #

Ok this must have been posted on some DS forum saying go! protect the DS!

Anyways I love Nintendo, but the DS just isn’t right for me. The game selection is horrible. The DS has been out for months and there’s hardly any games.

About battery life, the PSP is fine for me. It lasts for about 2 days for me. No I’m not playing constantly, but who does?

Posted by Bootes on April 20, 2005 at 07:54 AM | #

Why the DS is a flop:

The DS, unlike the GBA-SP, is developed and marketed for college age people. “Touching is Good” - not the kinda message we like to market to our kids, huh? Now, just to get it out of the way, the DS doesn’t blow as bad as the N-Gage, but that’s still not a compliment. The wireless connection idea can work if you actually make games for it that people will play.

So, Nintendo, after blowing the christmas season with lackluster manufacturing and not putting a DS into the hands of every person 18+ years of age, slowly develops games for its new system.

The games that come out, mostly kiddie games. Hey, I do like Mario 64, but add that to pokemon and wario and what’s going on here? OH, there’s the games for that demographic we were aiming for (that we didn’t sell to during christmas) - Feel the Magic (circa 1980’s arcade graphics) and Sprung (a dating game for the modern “player”/womanizer). But where in the H*** is Metroid Hunters?!

Now, I’ll give props to Sprung cause that meets the “Touching is Good” demographic. BUT…that college demographic I told you about…never bought the darn thing (except you people who are wondering why you can’t find others to link up to). Who bought those units???

Pre-teens. Yes, pre-teens who love their GBAs and wanted the new syste (No, the DS is not a GBA, but tells those kids that). Ok, so most of the games are for preteens. Except for those two games that EVERY PARENT SHOULD LOOK OUT FOR now that their pre-teen has the system.

You see the confusion here? mixed messages, not manufacturing enough units for the season, and not making enough games…ugh!

Enter the PSP in March (of all times), released top-of-the-line hardware. Crystal clear screen sells itself. 15 games on release. Sure the UMD movie thing might not work out, but you can still throw away your MP3 player. And THAT, my friends, is a repeat of the PS2 when it replaced all need for a separate DVD player. PSP, no confusion, it just runs.

With the competition now in place, since Nintendo didn’t take advantage of its timing and put a portable unit into the hands of everyone who now has a PSP, the DS will never sell again. And every week, I get customers trading in their DS for a PSP.

The DS is a Virtual Boy.

Posted by on April 21, 2005 at 03:11 AM | #

This is a stupid matter. Do you PSP boys realize that with the DS you can buy a Compact Flash card for 8-20 bucks and have 2 GIGS of memory for your DS? That means your little memory cards cant carry that much. The DS CAN play music, compatable games, movies, AND read eBooks. Whil you’re playing the same crap that’s on PS2, another faulty system, we can enjoy the hands down awesomeness of the nintendo DS. I’ve seen people’s PSPs break because of common things like putting your backpack down or shaking it after losing a game. Sony uses a magnet system for their disk drives, so its no wonder they break so damn easy. Again, neither system is really directed toward children, so that “My child can’t hear touching is good” is ########. It’s marketing people, wake up. Finally, in the long run, DS is a better system. This is just like Gamegear. Great look, awesome graphics, decent games, extras, but a really bad system design. It’s a crappy PS2 crammed into plastic. Not to mention DS has outsold the PSP by 800,000, as someone earlier stated.

Final Vote: DS, idiot.

Let me tell you something. THE NINTEDO DS SUCKS. IT SUCKs a lot. I WOULD RATHER PLAY WITH A SLOW COMPUTER THAN BE IN THE SAME ROOM AS A DS. D Stands for dork and S Stands for SUCKS

Hey Maher, I saw what you wrote on April 21, 2005 about your precious system the DS. It sucks. Plain and simple.

Posted by on April 21, 2005 at 05:11 PM | #

I had a psp and returned because it had the worst graphics and because the psp came out and i wanted to buy that.
My point is that I thought that when i got the The Urbz on it it would have the graphics like in the consloe. Well it didn’t it had the same crappy graphic’s of a GBA also with ridge racers same thing psp graphics are way better. Now somebody tell me if any other graphics can compete with a handheld game system.

Posted by on April 22, 2005 at 02:59 PM | #

DS is not bad but the games ABSOLOUTLY SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i sware the only way you can like the games is if ur 5 and under otherwise the games can go suck Hiroshi Yamauchi balls. and where are da games? i keep seeing ppl post “just wait till the games come out” but how long has it been, about 3 months and what?, #### HASENT CAME OUT!! and on the other hand the PSP is EXTREMLY fragile like 1 wrong move and there goes 400 bucks the costumer service sucks more then DS’s games. like i called and told them i had a HUGE scratch on my screen and i was littilery telling the guy for 4 straight hours and at the end he didnt help me so i just went and complained to the store and they FINALLY got it replaced.

my say is that both suck just wait a couple years and wait and see wat else comes.

Posted by on April 22, 2005 at 05:38 PM | #

Hey all !

Just wanna let you know that DS can NOT be compared with the PSP. PSP totally SUCKS ! DS kicks ass !
I mean, omg, have you seen the graphics of the PSP ??
It’s totally CRAP ! Maybe DS games aren’t that great, but at least I love them ! And you can also play GBA games on it ! Can you play PS2 games on your PSP ?? I don’t think so…. Here in Japan, almost every single person i know has DS ! And the great thing about the DS is, that you can upload games from eachother ! And can you do that with PSP ? NO ! SO IT SUCKS ! I always had Nintendo consoles, and I always will have ! Sony totally SUCKS ! I know that after i wrote my last sentence, everyone will hate me…But IT’S TRUE ! PSP is RIP OFF ! NEVER BUY IT !
And mario games RULE !!!

The psp is for people how like PCs, and fox, the DS is for people who like Macs and Disney, so i am going to have to go with the PSP, i have never had any problems with sony and it look awsome…

Posted by on April 24, 2005 at 10:22 AM | #

I don’t know WTF you’re talking about. I have a PSP, I love it. I like Macs, I hate Disney. I hate PCs, I like Fox.

I don’t know where you’re coming up with this, if anything the PSP would be for people that like Macs, because it has style.
DS with Disney because many people consider nintendo to be “kiddy”
And Fox doesn’t really have anything to do with any of this at all.

*note I do like Nintendo, I just don’t think the DS has the power of the games that would make it worthwhile.

What drugs do you PSP fans take?

Posted by on April 24, 2005 at 03:08 PM | #

Comparing the DS to the PSP is the stupidest thing in the world. The DS kicks ass because of the touch screen and pictochat. The PSP kicks ass because of nice graphics, video, and music. DS does need more games, but that doesnt mean it sucks. PSP has nice games right now. But With 13 bucks i could buy a regular dvd, so watching movies on ur psp isnt all that great but its still good. Music is not built in ur psp u have to buy a memory stick, and with 100 bucks i can go buy an mp3 player, but its good if u have money and buy all this. The DS wasnt meant for “home console” graphics, it was meant for those fun and relaxing games with the feature of the touch screen. And some games set a bad example of it, like “madden 2005”. But if Nintendo can make some addictive touch screen games, and PSP can lower prices a bit more then they will both succeed very well. Theres not much to argue about here, The DS has fun addictive multiplayer games, and the PSP has amazing PS2 graphics we all dreamed about. So if u buy the PSP for 250$ or the DS for 150$, they both match their price.

Posted by on April 24, 2005 at 10:08 PM | #

can’t believe there are ppl out there(Noriko) sayin that the graphics fer the psp suck !!! get some glasses lady . or at least read the specs fer the PSP . ridge racers on the psp and the DS can give us a good idea about how much better display on the psp(very detailed- know through experience ) is than the DS(lots of grains- checked pics on the net ) . and i think the only reason DS owners are flaming the PSP is cuz dey obviously know they bought the wrong thing fer x’mas an r just defending their PATHETIC investment .

PSP RUUUUULLLLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by on April 26, 2005 at 09:20 AM | #

Aw COME ON ! You think I don’t know what good gaming is ??? I mean; I live in Tokyo, Japan, the world’s gaming capital !! I don’t need glasses, I can see just fine ! And DS totally not pathetic ! You just don’t want to admit ! PSP is crap ! Maybe DS graphics aren’t perfect, but we DS- owners can do much much more then you PSP- nerds can do… PSP graphics aren’t good ! DS is the PERFECT gift for christmas, I am very happy I got a DS. And DS is worth it’s money ! 26,500 ¥ for that stupid piece of junk… No wonder people buy more DS then PSP… And I just looooove pictochat ^_^ ! It’s sooo great ! And you PSP-nerds can’t do that -haha !
Nintendo is sooooo cool !It’s totally “in” ! Playstation is for lonely nerds who have no friends and spend all day long with their Playstation… very sad…
Heehee- I bet I am the most hated person in this discussion ^_^ ! Wel, guess what; I DON’T GIVE A DAMN !

One screen full of scratches= 0.5 the fun

Posted by on April 26, 2005 at 04:03 PM | #

Hello, yeah, so I’m a huge Xbox fanboy, and I dont give #### for Psp. Why? Dead pixels, Fragile body, crappy drive etc. The list goes on. the Ds does not break so easily and it has two screens which is cool. also the DS is the best portable system for first person shooters like metroid. the thing with psp is that you cant mouse look with a touch screen. and the analog stick it at the same side as the control pad, which is a big flaw. The games for DS are cool, I dotn know what people are talking about we got Mario DS, Ridge racer, metroid prime, rayman 2 and others. We can also play movies and music, we just gotta import em from our PC, no spending an extra 40 bucks to rebuy our entire DVD colection,=. And to top thing off, WE have 2X better battery, so who’s gonna be better in the long run in a airline trip from canada to australia, or france? The DS so ah we win suckers..

Ok everyone out there who is saying the ds sucks the psp sucks all that bull #@$%. Ok the fact is i own a nintendo ds and im trying to get rid of it cause i wanna buy a psp. Im 14 and i think the ds is a good system for people like 7-12 but the games arn’t to apealing for older kids. I think that nintendo did a nice job. Sony on the other hand made a system appealing to older kids. The games are ok on both systems. Psp’s slightly better. It does have some good feautres the psp i mean but if u want to store a movie on it ull need 512mb memcard. (got infor from gameinformer so dont contridict) the only problem i have with the PSP is the price 250.00 for the psp and 90.00 for mem cards

Posted by on April 27, 2005 at 03:14 PM | #

ok srry i ment a 512mb is 90.00
but im having trouble buying a sony product i hate sony
im a die hard xbox live Halo2 xbox fan so its just

OMG the PSP is coming out in Europe on September 1st! I am 100 percent sure that Sony has confirmed it. Man that’s unfair. Damit je vraiment l’un ai voulu. I guess I will just have to go to the States this summer. What case should I get for the PSP? Please reply.

Bonjour ^^ !

Tu veux acheter un PSP ??! Bweik, non non non !
La PSP vraiment n’est pas bien ! Vraiment ! La DS est plus plus plus mieux ! Je ne jamais acheterais un PSP !
Il n’y a pas de qualité ! L’écran est très rapide abimée !
Et les jeux sont kaka ! Si j’étais toi, j’acheterais un DS !
Mais ça c’est seulement un suggestion ^^, bien sûr tu peux acheter tout que tu veux…
Au revoir !
Gros bisses !

DS= Dumb system
PSP= Pure Sony Pleasure

Posted by on April 30, 2005 at 05:23 PM | #

i’m sorry everyone, but the ds is not as good as i hoped for. i have been buying nintendo stuff for 8 years, and was really quite pleased with it. the super nintendo was the first thing i got, and i loved it. n64, gc, you name it, they were good. untill this year, i got a ps2. the new smaller one. it was good. it was fun. it kicked ass. i got a bunch of great games like devil may cry, burnout 3, and kingdom hearts. and i stated to like sony a lot more than nintendo. but it can down to the new handhelds. the ds, and the psp. at first i wanted a ds more. like second nature. i said the psp sucks, and the ds is way better, things like that. then i tried the ds at my friends house. it sucked. it sucked bad. i really expected more from people i was so loyal to. so i looked a lot closer at the psp, and my answer came. THE PSP ROCKS AND THE DS IS THE WORST PIECE OF #### I HAVE EVER SEEN. nuff said.

the ds is not nintendos hand held. it was something different they put out to develop another area of gaming. NINtendo repeatable said that the ds is not the next gameboy….the evolution is the next gameboy. You will get to hear about it after e3. The revolution and the evolution will serious kick ass. Both systems are suppose to be backwards compatitable for all prior systems.

1. Yesterday, I went the library. There was this idiot playing a PSP. Then he accidentally dropped it onto the ground. (carpet) The PSP broke in half. I laughed like crazy.

2. To pspavenger- Ok, first of all, you could get arrested/fined for something like that, and second of all, maybe you should go back to kindergaten and learn how to spell. But since I’m so nice, I’ll teach you right now.
“abnd” is spelled a-n-d.
“pnuched” is spelled p-u-n-c-h-e-d.
“waepon” is spelled w-e-a-p-o-n
Also, “more” is spelled l-e-s-s. Man, how stupid can you get?

You seem to take offense at my atrocious spelling. However, my previous post was merely an attempt to ridicule the level of intelligence displayed in this thread. In no way does it reflect my actual mastery of grammar and spelling. That aside, I have some comments of my own to make:
1.) Never start a sentence with the word “OK”. It makes you sound like a twelve-year-old girl.
2.) Kindergarten is spelled K-I-N-D-E-R-G-A-R-T-E-N.
3.) Contrary to what you might think, “pnuched” is actually spelled P-N-U-C-H-E-D. The fact that it is not a real word makes no difference.
4.) I did not get arrested or fined. I had a whole bag of PSP’s to smash over the heads of the cops that came to arrest me. After my clever escape, I fled the country to my private island near Fiji.

Where did all the DS fanboys come from? Did they get bored of their Dumb syste (DS)? PSP rules, Its not like everyone says and breaks every time you touch it. I mean come on, DS has been on the market longer and it already has a very small selection of games, only about half of what the PSP has, and to all those people who said the PSP graphics sucks, just go look at your DS! Is it so ugly you cant even dare to look at it! About the battery life, there is a new battery that lasts alot longer coming soon.
Pictochat sucks! Thats all I have to say, if you are within 100 feet of a person you might as well TALK! One of you said that people who owned PSP’s were loners, well if you cant even talk to someone without a machine….Ugh…

Im done…

VOTE: PSP ALL THE WAY!

To pspavenger (a.k.a. Stupid Person)- In case you didn’t already know, I AM twelve years old, and unlike you, (who probably had to use a dictionary)I know how to spell “Kindergarten.” Ever heard of a typo? I didn’t think so.
Also, no idiot would be dumb enough to buy a whole bunch of PSP’s just to smash them on peoples’ heads and at the same time, break them. And you definitely don’t own a private island. (moron) Obviously, you made the whole smash-people-on-head-with-PSP thing up. How stupid do you have to be to do that?

Posted by on May 06, 2005 at 12:18 PM | #

PSP is the best, the DS sucks, cause is the same of the gameboy the only things that it changed is the touch screen, sony is better than nintendo, the PSP vs the DS is like the PS2 and the Gamecube, PSP rules

Posted by on May 06, 2005 at 02:37 PM | #

if yuo dont shut up, i’ll smash a psp onYOUR head!
haha
also, teh ds stick thingie is a fire hasard, it could easy pop out and poked someones in teh eye.

By the way, I don’t own or care about either system. I just stumbled across this message board a few days ago. It is pretty damn funny, though.
NERD FIGHT!!!

Mmmmmm….nerd fight

To pspavenger(who is even stupider than he was yesterday)- Obviously, you can’t smash a PSP on my head because you don’t even know where I live. (another sign of your stupidity) Also, the DS’s “stick thingy” is called a “stylus” (s-t-y-l-u-s) so maybe you should learn more about the DS before you start insulting it. Also, the stylus can’t pop out if the stylus holder. Would a tissue just pop out of a tissue box? Of course not. And there’s no way you could accidentally poke someone in the eye with a stylus unless you were trying to do it, and only an idiot like you would be dumb enough to do something like that. (Styluses are better weapons than PSP’s, since the don’t break when you touch them)

wut r u talknig abot psp dosnt break if u tuch it and its beter then ds

Posted by on May 07, 2005 at 09:22 AM | #

Whoa.. You and pspavenger must be related…

The nintendo ds is a piece of garbage compared to the psp. I had ds for 2 weeks and i couldn’t stand it anymore. I traded it in for a psp. Nintendo has been making handhelds for the past 15 years and they still cant get it right. Nintendo should just stop. And I agree with “PSP_OWNS_DS”, pictochat is the lamest thing I have ever seen.

Posted by on May 08, 2005 at 11:37 AM | #

DS sells more then psp….....HAHAHA

Posted by on May 09, 2005 at 07:06 AM | #

Posted by on May 09, 2005 at 08:15 AM | #

Okay i’ve had experience with both systems, i have a ds, and my brother has a psp, and ive got one thing to say I was playing Ridgeracer on my brothers psp, when i heard someone whispering killme!!!, i thought it was coming from the game, but it got louder i looked outside and no one was there, then i listened again it was me saying that stupid piece of junk was so dissapointing i was muttering killme!!! to my self so i threw it on the table picked up my ds turned it on and played metroid prime hunters:first hunt(great game!!!!!!!!!)

Posted by on May 09, 2005 at 09:24 AM | #

Oh yeah my brothers trading in his shity psp for a ds, so we can play wirelessly and so he can get a better car game. Since the need for speed underground ds is so much better than psp’s need for speed unground:rivals, because it has the free roam mode like on the consoles and plus you can draw designs on your car using the ds stylus.So thats coming from two people and where both above 14 years of age so all you kiddy claiming psp fan boys can kiss my ass

Posted by on May 09, 2005 at 09:37 AM | #

Hey, “PSP ALL DA WAY,” I couldn’t read your post because the spelling and grammar was so bad, however, I think you [and pspavenger] really need professional help, since you’re both obvioulsly older than me, and spell even worse than 6-year olds…
