I should point out real quick that, surprisingly and unfortunately, there are incredibly stupid people in the world. The guy in this video played the part of a DS basher or PSP basher quite well, and you shouldn't necessarily berate anyone for believing what this guy said and being angry at his alleged stupidity. I wasn't so sure myself at first (though felt it most likely was), and when I saw the PSP sucks video as well, I knew it was obviously satire and was pretty funny.

Fanboyism, on the other hand, is undoubtedly wrong and should be stopped :P. Besides, it all a matter of opinion, unless you're talking about sales of the consoles (where one must take into account the consumers and all sorts of crap that really doesn't have much effect on us, besides how well the company does and the amount of games and developers for the system. Hmmm, maybe it DOES affect us!).
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

I have to say this much: regardless of who's bashing what, very few of them actually make good arguments. It's because it's easier to lie (or just skip research entirely) than compare things fairly. If a true comparison was done of the DS and PSP, it would all come down to one thing: who YOU are. People make their own decisions on stuff because they like it. The only way an argument can help is if a person is misinformed or uninformed about the subject matter, and helpfully pointing out features (or lack thereof) is a much more sincere way.

I think we've all forgotten that at times…

Ok the satire is really cool and that guy is funny. The fanboyism is not cool. Why is it that lisping little fanboys always have to yell their opinions at the top of their lungs trying to convince everyone that they made the right decision in THEIR purchase of one system or the other. In the end both systems have good points and bad points and it comes down to whether you like to play GTA or nintendogs. and that is the only real factor that should come into play in deciding something, because there are very few games that will be published on both systems so trying to make a head to head comparison is ridiculus. nuff said
