Hiya,
Trying to decide to what to buy dh for xmas (got a bit of money saved up, so want to do it asap, so I don't spend it!).
Which one is best?

Thanks

We've asked about this in numerous games shops.

Consensus seems to be that the PSP is better for older gamers, the DS better for a younger gamers.

PSP has fewer games rated for younger people, but lots of 18+ games.

DS has lots of games for younger children, but I don't know about ones for older people.

DS can also take gameboy games, although they only show on one of the two screens.

Personally I would go for the PSP for an adult.

HTH.

If cost was no object then PSP, but tbh DH plays plenty of games on the DSs DSs (if you get what I mean ) If money is limited I'd go for a DS plus some games, rather than just a PSP.
