so he likes the psp, and i like it too, i just dont like it as much as the ds.... i'm willing to bet the PSP will release at 299.99, that's just comparing the likes of sony's clie pda's with the same kinda specs. (actually a clie that does that player stuff, movie stuff without the game capacity)

i dont understand, a small portable screen doesn't even have the capacity to show that many colors, (if you dont know what i'm talking about, go to the store and look at a photo on a PDA) let alone the resolution. I wanna see MGS running on REAL hardware. Until then, I'll not even pay attention. (next e3 i'd wager)

actually im betting sony will get it off at 199.99

as for colors, it depends on what your looking at as to if you actually will notice. sometimes they make a pretty big diff.

A good read on the PSP:

Apparently it will do better graphics then some PS2 games.

Haha, I didn't even notice there was an analog control on it, lol.

Describe better looking. From what I've seen the textures are much muddier. Not to mention the fact that the games don't run at near the resolution the PS2 does. It's a poly-pusher, and that seems to be about all. That's not a bad thing, but it's fanboyish to pretend it's as good or better than the PS2.

actually, (even tho i believe ps2 to be much better looking) on a small screen it doesnt need to be as high of a resolution. you just plain wont notice. and textures are actually quite good on it.

Right, I know that. But it's not as powerful as the PS2 is what I'm saying. It doesn't have to be to achieve similar looking graphics.

All I'm saying is that people shouldn't say "it's as/more powerful than the PS2." Because it's not; it just looks similar. I'm not trying to be negative, I just want people to be clear.

I was only relaying what IGN said. Do not ever call me a fanboy.

They just said that some of the polygons looked smoother on PSP, on some PS2 games, obviously not all. Probably the first generation and lower budget games is what they were referring to.
