Before anyone flames him, he's aying that the DS is not technically a console and is rather considered a handheld (although I personally consider all gaming devices to be consoles).

And although it's a bit off topic, I'd like to mention that an account based on one gimmick can only go so far. That said, both are great consoles so I think you need to just compare your favorite games from both systems instead of changing your mind based on playing some great games recently on one console.

 

Thanks for clarifying for my sake. I just feel like handhelds usually don't offer the same experience as home consoles and should be classified differently but maybe it's just me.

Some best selling handheld games won't perform well on home consoles and vice versa.

Yea, "gaming" should have been used instead of "consoles" but still both are still consoles , its just one needs a constant power supply and a t.v and the other doesn't.

The J man always goes back to great games and the ps2 is one of the systems the J man goes back to the most (hell just last week the J man again beat God of war 2 and two weeks before that beat KH2) but honestly the J man never thought he would have as much fun with the ds as he had.

The J man is far from fickle and knows what he likes.



N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!!!

The S man has tried Ds and eventually played top games I wanted to play and then sold it 2 months because I had nothing to do with it...Ps2 however heck..PS2!

"The 3rd place" was ps2's slogan in the uk

Oh the irony.

 

And I too, like Montana call a console a console.... just because it has it's own screen doesn't mean it's not a console. (hence handheld console)

but each to their own so I don't mind people using console and handheld to differentiate (because otherwise we would have to say home console all the time or else risk meaning all 5 machines this gen.

i believe the J man must play the world ends with you and Elite Beat Agents so that he may further fall in love with his tiny two screened source of happiness. Or in my case, my fat source of happiness.


.....(re reading that last sentence sounds a bit creepy now. meh)



um..stuff

I could have sworn there was a thread where the OP said he would be giving up the 3rd person jibber jabber.

Did that really happen or was that just the best dream ever?
