i am really sorry if this is getting 2 much off topic....but u don't like sport games?! have u ever played fifa street...or nba street volume 3.... that are 2 FANTASTIC sportgames if u ask me!.........i totally understand when ure saying sports games with the meaning fifa worldcup, golf pro tour,nhl , davis cup and that kinda crappy games......so what do u mean?! all sportgames😱????

Yep. If I want to play sports, I'll do it with my friends.

If I want to summon Bahamut, I play Final Fantasy.

I do agree that Sony's launch list is pretty impressive. Nintendo launched the DS too early and its obvious on why they did. They looked at the PS2 launch and felt that they needed to beat out the PSP.
But, the DS has sold well so it aint that bad. Only time will tell what system is better.
Its funny though, is that Sony doesnt feel the need to compete with the DS and Nintendo has said that its not competing with PSP. Its pretty funny. But I think both systems will coexist.

I jusr got MGA and i think its a great game.

I never like the Metal Gear Solid games. I think the 30 minute cutscense and codec scene got to me. Then I found out that MGA has a card battle system, Im still kinda of wierded out by that.
I would buy Lumines over MGA anyday.

Im a huge MGS series is because of the cutscenes to be honest and the sneaking gameplay too. And plus I got both.

i just dont think metal gear should be turn based 😬

Me niether.
Really. You liked the cutscenes. I dont mind cutscene but sometimes I liked to play a game.
I dont think it was the cutscenes but the codec screens. They're soo long for something unimportant. IF they were shorter and revieled alot of important info, I wouldnt mind.
I always like the approach that Half Life did on where you actually see the story first hand and not by cutscene.

I love the cutscenes and like the codec parts. MGA is decent I wish it was real time for the PSP.

Well, people have different tastes.

Yah, MGA looks like a bad Japense RPG. Well the fighting system does, but the presentation is probably excellent.

just to let you people know, the DS is now outselling the PSP again, acording to the latest figures from Japan gc.advancedmn.com/article.php?artid=4638

I been knew that.

Well its not really surprasing due to Japenese games being really weird and that the DS control scheme can really do those ****ed up games perfectly.
The stylus is perfect for those type of games.

PSP is not doing worse than the ds, by any stretch of the imagination, I saw a bin of returned DS's for a psp and its superiority.

You saw a bin of returned DS's?

How does that show that the PSP is doing better or the same as the PSP?

Reports show DS is sellling more than the PSP.

Its probably the cheapness..........

though is DS more successful or does it just sell more units. , because in my area it is really unpopular, what about in yours.

WHere I live, the DS is popular, cause my community is FULL of littlee kids who want to catch all the pokemon! However, the PSP is much better overall, looks sleeker and has better games. Nintendo is, and always will be be, aimed at little kids, which I am not, I prefer Playstation anyday.

In psp, you can ply good games, you can watch movies, and you can bring it anywhere you want to go. Also, the buttons are the same thing as the controller buttons in ps2 and ps1. So if you used the controller of the ps1 and 2, you know what to do in a game.

yes its the price tag and the all around durability.

The psp rules.My area of teenagers, bought them up and were watching, gorgeous quality movies. I'm waiting until that price drop though 😉

MY psp is boring with remakes of old game exccept Lumines.
