Exactly how good is the PSP in comparison to the PS2

**Cokemusic** · July 4th, 2007, 15:00

I've had my PSP for about two years now and I find that the PSP isn't even close to matching the PS2 in terms of it's graphics .

Is this because of a lack of effort on the developers behalf, i read in an article that the PS2 is equal to the PSP's performance because of the PSP doing the same tasks @ a lower resolution ,( i don't really understand all of it)

Or is the reason that the , the PSP's potential could only be fully unlocked once Sony allowed the PSP to fully utilize it's CPU in the new firmware updates.

Some one provide more insight please.

the devs who are making god of war for psp said that with the cpu at 333mhz its basically like coding for ps2.

i would rather compair how games play than their graphics because obviously the graphics are going to be taken down a notch. but they play the same as ps2 basicly

grand theft auto looked pretty good. and so did any first person shooter games like call of duty. those games looked really good and play as if it was playstation 2 hand held. so its good enough for me.
