there is a dispute over which will be better

it will prob influence my decision being a sony fan

they both have there pros and cons, im suporting the psp cause im a sony fan and it does mp3

the psp is more powerfull and plays mp3 but its battery does not last that long

the DS does have a battery that does not run out as fast and is cheaper, it does have two screens but that does not appeal to me i id rather have one big screen, touch screen will prob not be that good for gaming

DS does look a bit ugly but the nice big screen on the psp will get smashed up cause there is no protection

Which is best?

Take a look at the PSP version of Wipeout - top notch if you ask me.

But how much have you actually played of it or heard of it to make that decision?

The thread name is "PSP VS DS", not "which is the best game". The graphical power of PSP is clearly superior to the DS graphical power if look at a game like PSP Wipeout.

The graphics are better. Nobody is denying that.

As a machine, PSP beats Nintendo all over the feild.

As a games device, though, Nintendo should be able to take Sony, and that goes for the battery life too.

Do you have even the slightest comprehension of how much of an imbecile you really are?

There isn't any DS games coming to Gizmondo, just ports of already existing GBA games.

You know the reason that Metal Gear Acid is card based? Because MGS requires "precision control" to work properly, and they didn't think that it could be acheived on a portable console. But MGS on the GBC was brilliant! Sounds like a lie to me.

Plus I couldn't help but be disappointed if I got a MGS game where everything was controlled by cards, especially after Twin Snakes. The story, the atmosphere the tension, they'd pretty much all be lost.

It was made card based because a real MGS game would suck the battery dry in about an hour.

Apparently.
