Lumines may be good but Meteos is the new crack.

The Giga pack isn't really as good value here. I managed to sneakily get 2 1 gig memory cards. Mwahahaha

If you're getting a PSP, make sure to get RidgeRacer to really show off the capabilities of the machine.

While Lumines is an astounding game, it's not the one that'd initially win your friends over. Get it for yourself, master it, and don't let anybody else find out how good it is! :shifty-eyedsmiley:

Depends what you want really, but if it's RPG's you do have the entire GBA back catalogue for the DS. Considering that all the pre-playstation Final Fantasy's will be available by the end of next year on ds or gba it has a pretty good selection of them.

/me can't wait until Final Fantasy 4 is released next monday

Also as Retro mentioned there are good rpg titles such as Golden Sun, Mario + Luigi Superstar Saga, Fire Emblem, Zelda: Minish Cap etc available for GBA.

For me the ds has the better games at the moment, unless you really want pro evo and gta.

Wipeout Pure is prettier and a far better game.

I have that too, and I love it to pieces (got my 151st gold last night), but I'd say that RidgeRacer is the better game, "graphically" speaking.

"Popolocrois" I'm pretty sure.

currently torn over the same choices.

psp or DS


i'm a huge sonic fan, so ds is tempting for sonic rush.

but psp could emulate the classic sonic games which will play great in handheld form.

But something i have been hearing alot of in the stores is the dangers of the emulating software? I'm not one for hype, but my housemate works in a gamestore and they have had alot of problems with customers f*cking up their psp's attempting to get emulation software for it.


(Dear Sega, solve all my problems, release all the classic sonic games on DS instead of PS2. thank you.)

no emulators wont mess up your psp, its just people trying every little tom harry and dick software released by every second average jocky.
downgrade psp and follow respectable psp sites.

as for DS? does that play emulated software? or homebrew?

Retr0gamer

There are some decent homebrew projects on the DS but nowhere near the as much as on the PSP. The most exciting developement is a conversion of the SCUMM Emulator for the DS. Imagine playing all those LucasArts classics with a stylus on your DS. You need a DS flash cart to play them.

GTA
SW:Battlefront2
Lumines
Wipeout
Burnout
Ridge Racer

and with Battlefield2 and Killzone already announced, PSP is a hands-on winner pour moi
