FUN is good
I don't get why they think they can't create fun games for the PSP. I think it says more about them than the hardware or Sony itself. I'll bitch about Sony when the bitching's due, and this ain't one of those times.Quote:
"I think we were excited by the technology, but the consumers have proven that actually what they want is fun.
"We must never forget that what we need to focus on is fun and so EA is putting more effort behind DS games, and creative ones that really take advantage of the hardware.
Unless Sony's tying their hands in some way we don't know about, yet?
Well their certainly tying their hands as far as the market of homebrew users is concerned,all while trying to tie ours.
make no mistake there is a market I mean how many members do we have here.
As a long time PSP user, I just got a NDS lite and it is really fun compared to the PSP. The touch-screen is really something. I thought I wouldn't be too fascinated with it but games like Wack-a-Mole that I wouldn't ever think of buying before just comes to life on the DS.
But I still love my PSP. Sports games (such as FIFA 06 and Virtua Tennis) are FAR superior on the PSP. Not to mention all the homebrew and multimedia support. I don't think EA should abandon the PSP because sports games are pretty good on it. Not XBOX 360 good but very good for a handheld. Sports games are just not fun on the DS.
I was actually thinking of purchasing another DS,It is just plain fun.
What sweet irony in the old cartridge vs disk battle .Umd format sucks and the drives will probably start breaking soon like the ps2
Convient how disk read errors started popping up right after warranties expired,It cost $100 to get your ps2 fixed after warranty.
On top of that it was usually just a matter of adjusting the laser distance.
slick one sony
your ideas for the psp are just making it worse. Keyboard and linux...for what. the PSP problems is its games. most of them offer nothing new from PS2 so on a handheld the games feel stale. The DS has fun games that people like to play. The PSP features and technology wont save it.
Plus we all probaly play homebrew more than we play regular PSP games...thats not good for sony
All in all DS games are better...hands down.
Keyboard and linux for what,now thats funny....
Homebrew doesn't have to be bad for sony it's just their business model is flawed.
Oh and those aren't just my ideas,might want to ask some programmers that.
DS has linux, I don't understand how that will make anything worse
Mylo?
Ideas don't make anything worse,lack of imagination does
Ah, but are DS games better because the hardware is cooler, or is it because developers are making good games for the hand held? Is EA's problem Sony, or their own lack of innovation?Quote:

Lets think about it. Most of us are giddy when we can play OTHER consoles on the psp.
DS games are better because of innovation. Most PSP games are PS2 games shrunk down. They need to make the games different...like speed up the gameplay. I want a different experience from PS2. Powerstone will do that in the near future
Your definitly right in the innovation department:)Homebrew is innovation alot of times,Man the touch screen is cool I really do miss my DS .I'm definitly getting another one.Won't ever give up my psp though!That screen is beautiful.Pretty much this is sony's fault,they could have done so much better.
I am giddy when I play other consoles on my psp,can't wait for fully working N64!
