PS3 can't do backwards compatibility well.

console warz.

PSP has a few worthy games... considering that Cave Story is going to come out for it, it has those nifty Megaman games, and there's an FFT remake being made for it.

Although I still prefer the DS and wouldn't buy a PSP unless it was extremely cheap for me. I have a friend with one, so it's all good.

[DarkFlood2]

Yeah, but those Megaman games were mainly just remakes.. not to mention Megaman has gotten a bit stale in the last few years.

And while the PSP is getting a remake of FFT, the DS is getting a sequel to FFT.. Or was it FFTA?

BLASPHEMY! Although Maverick Hunter X was just a 3D remake of X. Battle Network doesn't count as Megaman, it counts as a steaming pile of ****.

Pixel just said he would give permission to anyone who wanted to make a handheld Cave Story.. I've heard it's coming out for PSP and/or DS.

nvm:

Who the hell cares? Just buy the one which has the games you want and shut the **** up about the other systems. Darkflood is still a fanboy noob.

[Osmose]

The DS one is just a port - he doesn't have any intentions of adding anything, but the PSP one will have better graphics and probably a few new features - a few months ago the CEO (They're a small company) was asking around on their forums as to what other features they should add, like a backdash or something.

And as far as I've seen, the FFT sequel going to the DS isn't going to be an FFT sequel, rather an FFTA sequel.

Now the difference between the two is that FFTA has the idiotic concept of judges, among other stupid things(Oh noes, I'm not a foot and a half tall so I can't use guns like the Moogles can. Racial job separation is so gay.), and a sequel has the chance of having those flaws, whereas FFT is known to be awesome, and having it portable is even better.

[ZeroKirbyX]

To me, sprites > 3D models, so if Cave Story came straight to DS as is I'd be happy. I liked both Tactics and Tactics Advance. I thought the judges were a neat little concept that added another form of planning. But whatevers, if it came to DS like FFTA I'd still buy it.

Firstly DarkFlood, I am not being biased in an attempt to help the PSP save face; I am simply pointing out that a number of the points you made were complete crap.

1) I had the information from a games site which a friend showed me around 5 weeks ago. I don't remember the URL, but I'll be sure to go and find it just for you.

2) In your original point, you said, and I quote:

Now, it is a fact that the PSP system is open to "homebrewing" software and games. But this does not mean that people do not use it for playing games, simply because you say "oh lol the games r crap", or because "your brother said so". Please try to base your argument on facts, rather than your own personal experiences, which are rather less impressive.

[OPINION][BIAS]The fact of the matter is, most PSP games are not very good. You can take a look at virtually any game rating magazine (such as gameinformer) to see that the DS has one good game for every two mediocre PSP games. The numbers don't lie.[/OPINION][/BIAS]

This all depends on what you're looking for. As an example, I could go through any games magazine, and pick out any bad DS games, without looking at the good ones. I could then go on to say "My research has proven that 100% of DS games are crappy". You can't just base your entire argument on your own bias and opinions and then claim it to be "research", or you end up looking like a tard.

I'm going to put this in bold so that you can't fail to miss it. My point is this: Please do not base your arguments on "the PSP's games are crap". The reason for this is that these games are probably not crap; either you, or the games magazine you are using, simply did not like the game. This does not mean that it is "crap", and causes your argument to fall flat on its face.

But I remember the figures to be about 1-3 games per PSP owner.

Everyone I know with a PSP owns more games than that. Please find me the figures which have told you this.

3) I never said it was a gimmick. Don't quote me on stuff I didn't say.

As for the lighting, the DS sports a stronger backlight than the PSP.

No it doesn't. Some guys even tested it with a lightmeter; the result being that the PSP had a much stronger backlight. Once again, I'll try to find you the exact site.

(By the way, check that your brother had the PSP's backlight on its full setting. Some people play with the backlight turned right down. God knows why.)

You cannot deny that when it comes down to raw power, the PSP "slaughters" the DS, as you put it. Just look at the technical specifications.

Hmm, 333 MHz processor speed for the PSP, and 67 MHz for the DS. Like you said, the numbers don't lie.

(By the way, "postage stamp" was a joke. Please try to notice when something is a joke in future.)

Oh, and by the way, about the Sixaxis thing, I have an issue of OPS2 somewhere which says this. I'll dig it out if I can and show you what it says, though I doubt you'll believe it, being as determined to win your little victory as you are.

4) I just love how you go on to insult my intelligence in the last two paragraphs. For a start, I am also attempting to make an unbiased argument, and yet you seem to be basing most of your points on either figures you "seem to remember", and "your brother".

Also, why would I attempt to disprove all of Charas? The PSP has its flaws, as well as the DS. However, the point I make is that you're trying to point out that the DS is completely superior to the PSP, something which, quite simply, is not true.

Similarly, it's also clear (At least to me) that your hatred of Sony significantly decreases your ability to make an unbiased argument, which is why I do not take your "facts" seriously.

There is no measureable unit of "how good something is", which is why it is impossible to win an argument like this. At the end of the day, it all boils down to personal taste.

I am going to leave this argument here, and I trust you can put aside your fanboyism and be mature enough to do the same.

End'd.

[DarkFlood2]

However, there is also the possibility that they took all of that out. Although I wish it was an FFT sequel and not an FFTA sequel.

[MrMister]

Yeah, there's that FFT game coming out for DS. I've heard it was sort of half way between FFT and FFTA. And all the PSP is doing for Cave Story is a graphical update, which I wouldn't want. The graphics are the game's charm. Having Cave Story handheld is just God.

EVERYONE. I can have people sent to your house. Bad people.
stfuad.

[Dragonium]

xD Drace. xD.

Cave Story is so popular someone would have eventually ported it to games systems anyway.

And MrMister, you can't send bad people to my house, because nobody knows where my house is.
