Semantic disputes don't legitimise your argument; the PSP can produce an experience that is comparable to that which you would enjoy on a home console. Hence, it delivers a 'home console' experience. The Nintendo DS doesn't have the visuals or power to deliver that experience.

 

You are not being done an injustice. THERE IS NO WAR.

 

It has the better visuals than the N64...Which is a HOME CONSOLE!!

The games that we play on Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS, generally, wouldn't be welcomed as £30-£40 GameCube, PlayStation or Xbox games. They're not designed for the home console. They often wouldn't work as home console games. And we're talking about the current range of home consoles here. Just to make that clear.

 

The PlayStation Portable, however, has the potential to play games that would work as home console games. It has the visuals. It has the screen. It is possible to display a full-blown city for you to explore in three dimensions. Hence, some games are comparable to that which you play on your PlayStation. It is essentially, as the worn phrase goes, 'a PlayStation on the go'.

Yay racing games. Isn't it great to see new games that have never been done before? :heh:

 

Yeah, it's not bad. I like playing games that have been done before, too. But I guess you're not allowed to; that would contradict the ideology wouldn't it? That would be admitting defeat in this holy war, wouldn't it?

I couldn't believe that psp won the innovation award! I mean, it's a fantastic machine but it's no-way as innovative as the DS!

 

Clearly, alot of Sony fans were entering their vote, due to the fact that San Andreas won some awards that it perhaps shouldn't have???

 

:smile:

Portable games aren't the same as console games at all, in fact I'd say the play experience is vastly different no matter what Sony want you to think. Just because a handheld game is console priced doesn't give you a similar experience.

 

PSP is a fantastic example of something that's done better everywhere else for the exact same price. UMDs? DVDs. PSP games? Ps2 games. I'm not totally into the DS either, but at least it has a few neat titles to make it worth owning, the PSP has proved itself worthless to me today outside the blast-zone of the inital wow factor.

 

Do yourselves a favour and buy a Ps2 instead of a PSP, and spend the difference on an Xbox with Xbox Live. Actually screw the Ps2, Xbox Live for the super win.

 

 

Regarding this awards thingy, who cares? It won't ruin my day.
