DS does have a lot of bargain bin games, but it's great for quick gaming. Being able to go to sleep and resume instantly without zapping the battery is great for commutes. PSP games just take too much investment for ion the go gaming.

the ds is pretty good, i have both a psp and a ds. the ds isnt as good graphically as the psp and has the 2 screen deal instead of one big screen, once you get an r4 chip everythings fair game.
the ds has tons of games given that its cheap and easy to make games for it, so a flood of games are available. games are from 8mb to a max of 132mb so it doesnt take a big budget to make them. the other gimmicks of the ds (microphone and touch screen) also add a novelty factor. i like puzzle quest, zelda, final fantasy, orcs & elves, and lately dungeon explorer.

God should be a permanent entry in all ballots. It'll be like piping the crazies civic opinions to /dev/null. One huge filter so those that those who are dumb enough to vote for God don't affect the rest of us.

the french word for "young man" which is widely used to call a waiter is Garcon not Garson....

I do not respect the French or their language.

That's why I hacked the shit out of my PSP. Loading times on a memory stick? Zero. Full screen wicked video, makes me want to fly everywhere. Teh bomb

DS is good, but only for some things. Tetris DS? Hells yeah. I have both, sos I don't have to pick.

Either way, Xbox 360 > EVERY system. Even my Wii. Sorry, gamerpoints/achievements FTW, best. idea. ever.

It's okay to be a geek. Embrace it.


I would hack my PSP but I'm too afraid I'll break it. I'm impressed enough that I've installed memory and RAM into my computer all by myself. Baby steps.

And I play my XBox 360 way more than anything else these days, even my computer.

Don't need to hack the DS, just a SmartOne

No hacks req'd.

Don't say girls don't like video games. If given the chance, I'd play video games WAY more than my bf.

I haven't played Halo 3, but Halo 2, I killed it. It was a blast.

Plus, the bf and I played Super Mario Galaxy for the Wii together and it was tons-o-fun beating a game with the help of the other. (I recommend it for a couple who loves video games.)
