I still say that the DS isn't a load of crap.

Neither did I, I said I prefer my PSP over my DS. I use it alot more.

DarkZero · 01-15-2008, 06:16 PM

Yes, but you make the PictoChat feature seem completely useless while in actuality, it's not.

**L007 is Undecided** · 01-15-2008, 06:17 PM

^ It IS useless. Why would I use it when I can just talk to my friends face to face?

If the PSP would get a larger library of actually good games (The only game I would absolutely get is Tales of the World), I would consider that superior. As much as I like Dungeon Crawlers, there should be a bit more variety.

Also, I believe that anyone with any amount of sanity would know that peoples views are different, and that both handhelds have advantages over the other.

There are portable DVD players which come with a bigger screens than the PSP.

The Doctor · 01-15-2008, 06:19 PM

@Mush: And there are portable DVD players which are heavier than a PSP. Also that'll mean that I'll have to carry another object around with me. After carrying around a PSP, DS, Phone, Ipod, Keys, and Wallet. I hardly need to carry a PDVDP. Yes I probably don't carry all those things at the same time, but still.....

@DZ: So...

I've yet to find things useful with the PSP (Remote Play/hookin' it up to the PS3)

Probably because you've never been in a situation where you couldn't talk to your friends face-to-face. It's better than yelling all the way across the house, I can tell you that.

**Booyakasha** · 01-15-2008, 07:41 PM

^Dude, no way. Yelling kicks ass. You hear that, everyone? The nanosecond you put down yelling, your credibility goes flying out the window. Let this be a lesson to you all.

Now look what you've done! Tell it you're sorry.

**L007 is Undecided** · 01-15-2008, 09:02 PM

I'm sorry that it has a really sucky chat program? No, not going to buy that? Oh, well, in that case, yeah. And if you can't actually talk... why would whipping out two DS's be any better? Chances are if you can't use your voice, you probably shouldn't be using electronic devices to communicate.

DarkZero · 01-15-2008, 09:16 PM

You're just jealous because the DS is capable of showing emotions.

**Wyborn** · 01-15-2008, 10:49 PM

DarkZero, if you want to use a chat room, download AIM or MSN or something.

Also: the DS has way more games that are actually fun, guys, what more do you want?

**Booyakasha** · 01-15-2008, 11:48 PM

^Waitaminute...Wyborn hates list wars, he would never do anything to provoke one. I smell an evil imposter. That's you, isn't it, Clone-Hitler? I always knew this day would come. *draws scimitar*

**Wyborn** · 01-15-2008, 11:55 PM

Ach! Mein secret! *flees*

***CaptHayfever*** · 01-16-2008, 12:18 AM

I maintain that there is no reason ever to watch a movie on a 2-inch screen with a battery life shorter than the running time of the movie.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

**Booyakasha** · 01-16-2008, 12:31 AM

Bah. I uncover one of the most sinister conspiracies ever to haunt the marble halls of VGF, and all you people can do is continue to harp and moan over your handhelds like a bunch of old women. See if I ever make the world safe for democracy again.

**Wyborn** · 01-16-2008, 12:45 AM

Hey guys did someone who was wearing a Wyborn mask run through here a minute ago?

Anyway yeah. I prefer my DS, but if you kids start a list war I will deride you endlessly.

There's a difference between a chatroom and PictoChat. Chatrooms are for internet use while PictoChat are for people within 60 feet (or was it meters, I can't remember) of eachother.

Yelling's no fun in 3 in the morning when your parents will wake up and ground you.

I thought he was referring to how you are every-other post in this topic. That sort of thing can be pretty annoying on a message board.

Also, did you make this topic just to argue with anyone who likes the PSP?

DarkZero · 01-16-2008, 09:11 AM

^How? At least I make sense when I talk, it's not like spamming.
