However, that said, it still didn't 'do anything' for me, I mean it was a basic racer that wouldn't look out of place on a PS1. I guess that realistic racing games just don't fare that well with the DS, a trend Nintendo seem to uphold with every console, though I do like Asphalt.
I'm happy with the other games I have on DS though, so it's not going to be disappearing anytime soon...

Both consoles I believe.
like whys though, why would I want too?
Or the same film that can only be played on a tiny screen.
I think I know which I'd choose...

Yeh, I'd agree. DS has some difference to it, and as for the music, I have a portable music player anyway. And as for the DVD.. I'd never use it.
Most PS2 games that I'd be interested in have come out on either GameCube or Xbox anyway.
Here's my total collection of PS2 games amongst a small part of my GameCube/Xbox games collection:

Guy I met in the Honduras was raving about the PSP
'It's a PS2 in your hand!!!!!'
'Yeah, exactly, it's a PS2 in your hand, why bother?'
'OMG, cos it's a PS2 in your hand!!!!'
'Do you have a PS2?'
'Yes'
'......'
As for PSP games being PS2 ports, for me that's no bad thing. I've never owned and probably never will own a PS2... so PS2 ports are no problem, as with any luck they will give me a chance to own and play a few excellent games that I missed out on before.
Both systems have their own strengths and shortcomings, so each handheld complements the other, rather than outdoes it. So as a DS owner, I can honestly say that I'll be picking up a PSP eventually.

I'm pretty certain that Winning Eleven is coming out on the DS.
