    PSP for reasons I've stated many times before.

    Oh, and I don't think there had been any fanboy type arguing on these forums, simply discussion. I can only assume you mean in general, or on another forum you read.

    EDIT - As posted in another thread: "So far, the impression I get is that the PSP is amazing just to look at; you have this fantasticaly well built device, massive widescreen display, and underneath that flash exterior, you know its got the power, pretty much, of a PS2, one of the current major home consoles.

    With the DS, you get the impression that its going to have to rely on novelty factor; the screens are nothing special, but one of them is a touch screen. Also the first batch of games for the DS were disapointing; the only one even to get average scores was Super Mario 64 DS, and that is a rehash of Mario 64 from the N64.

    The PSP has me excited about the potential that power and that screen has, with the might of Sony behind it, much more than the how Nintendo might impliment a touch screen on a handheld with inferior specs, an inferior screen and a dissapointing software launch.

    I've looked at the options, and the PSP seems the better bet."

    Sorry if by offering my opinions I've simply contributed to the fanboy arguement Swafe, although to be honest mate, I think you are getting confused and just calling anyone with an opinion a fanboy. Some of us do actually have reasons for the opinions we form, you know?

    Well said.. I also think the same..Although would be good to just try them out

    **persuades friends to get one, when available!**

    But as said I don't think it would get that much use..

    Neither - never been much of a mobile gamer. My brother's a big nitendo fanboy though, so you can guess what he'll be getting.

    Why do you get so many Nintendo "fanboys"...Ok, they were THE best back in the day, Gameboy, SNes, N64 (to an extent).... but these days they fail to pump out the same quality games as most of them are left up to 3rd party developers to write under the Nintendo name.....

    Its plain to see, the DS WON'T compete at this rate, why wont the "fanboys" back down and see past the label? I still like Nintendo, and I still plan to keep my Gamecube, for Resident Evil 4 and the new Zelda games, but where are all the quality games in between this? Metroid Prime 2, maybe, not my style of game tbh. But theres just not enough NEW stuff on the Cube to appeal to most people, however good the back catalogue is, people want to see what new stuff has to offer, and the Cube falls behind drastically in this department.

    Roll on February/March for some great games and 2 new consoles!
