317167 2005-01-23 04:05:00 ds or psp? living in new zealand we always get releases late, the ds and psp are no exception - but what i would like is an opinion of the united gaming community - which is better, psp or ds.

Having the opportunity to purchase both i am careful as to which i am going to choose. For years i have been a die hard nintendo fan, especially of the portables, so i am swayed to choose the ds. But, sony, makers of the ps2, can their knowledge and creativity of larger consoles be passed down into the portable variety? With video and music playing capabilities i hear? Or does the fact that they have never come out with a portable mean that this is shaky ground for them - will their adventure into the world of handheld gaming be plauged by faults and crappy titles -

Whos to kno? U! thats who, tell me wat u think between these two mighty warriors before they prepare to do battle for the number 1 place on the handheld podium, plz, if have an opinion, share it, all the faults, all the highlights -

Thankyou, WhiTe RaBitT.

317169 2005-01-23 04:28:00 I have never really liked any of the sony stuff to do with gaming, but the psp has really got me interested, I will probably look seriously at getting one when they arrive here lagbort (5041)
