I just want to hear some people's opinion on which handheld system is better and why?


(I Personally like the DS) biggrin.gif

I would go for neither actually. I think something that's caught my mind recently is actually the Nokia NGage QD which has some pretty awesome games right now like Pocket Kingdom. The graphics are also rather good considering it a portable. I thinkt he DS mixes too many things in one device to be much good.

I saw someone in school playing a DS a few days ago. The graphics were similar to that of an N64, and the screen was very clear and crisp. The gameplay also was smooth and the audio was decent as well. It looks like a very nice system.

The game the guy was playing in school used the 2 screens nicely. On the top screen was the actuall game where the player controlled the character, and the bottom screen had the map and also would contain the options menu and whatnot. I like how you can have a large map on another screen rather than a tiny one in the corner on the same screen.

I like it tongue.gif

Is it true that the DS might make Halo for the DS

highly doubtful as the DS is a ninendo product and halo a microsoft one. Also given even Microsoft has a hard time getting halo on PCs which should be microsoft's primary concern. I doubt it will get into the competition's portable device.

Yea I was surprised when I heard it I guess It was just a rumor

i find DS hard to control and the 2 screens are hard to get used to
also i never liked nintendo products
and i dont know anything about psp to formulate an opinion

I have a DS for christmas and my brother already has his and it is really fun to play and I'm looking forward to play with Wi-Fi and final fantsy will be an online game which comes out in Feb. 7.........I think

how and why would they make an Online game for a portable device?

because you can play with friends? I think its fun to be able to play something on say a trip..and be playing with ur actual friends.

Yea like now they have games where you can play wireless with people like 100 ft away then I think Final Fansty will be the actual first online game

heh tongue.gif No worries, its just my posts usually get overlooked.. I must be REAL mean hehehe. Anyway yeah thats why , i think the NGage QD is really something to look forward to getting...I certainly plan on getting it I think. I believe it also supports gaming online Internationally..meaning u can be off in South America and be playing with your buddies.
