i didn't know they were past a prototype, because the first lot had about 30 minutes battery life

No it's way past a prototype...The standard pack will retail at 19,800 yen ($185) and will include the handheld itself, an AC adapter and a battery pack. The value pack, on the other hand, will retail for 5,000 yen more at 24,800 yen ($232), and will include the handheld itself, an AC adapter, a battery pack, a 32MB Memory Stick Duo, a set of headphones with a remote control, and a soft case & hand strap. Battrey life is six hours depending on use and it releases Dec 12th in Japan

Well, I stoped beeing a "fanboy" for anything some 5-6 years ago

I was refering to gameplay on the two consoles, and the PSP will have gameplay which you've played lots of times before.

It's doubtful I'll buy any of the two, however objectively to me the DS seems to have the best gameplay from what I've seen so far.

You obviously didn't get my post, and suggesting that I was refering to you playing a few games over and over again makes you the fucking moron.

Why the heck do people keep saying this? The DS is the same way
DS is equal to N64
PSP is equal to PS2
So both have gameplay which we've played lots of times before

the ds is a new approach with the touch screen. it means it'll be suited to games normally played with mice so it opens up a new alley for console gaming

The above is an example of the possibilities with the touch screen.

Hopefully game developers will be ingenious enough to expand the concept even further.
