    Well, on a smaller screen the textures may indeed look a bit better than the wishy-washy I see in those screenshots.

    I know it's a handheld, but the textures simply have not much detail, I'm just saying the graphics chip of that handheld has about the same quality/power of a 1999 desktop graphics chip.
    It looks better if I zoom out to 50% so that the pics are smaller, but the detail is still not there.

    You got that kind of smoke effects on a 1999 graphics chip ? Sorry, I like bashing the PSP as much as the next guy, but these graphics are certainly above '1999' level. Games like half life or System Shock looked a whole lot worse than that.
    Besides, as Fragony pointed out, it's on a hand held !

    I wonder how long the battery lasts when playing a game like this though.

    And as much as it deserves it, I am running out of ammo.

    Us unlucky PSP owners have gotten a lot to look forward to(Painkiller, Disgaea, Silent Hill, Brothers in Arms, these games on a portable [blip] yes), and the latest releases are pretty damn good as well, a portable flightsim, a metal fear game common! I could actually recommend the system now if they dropped the price somewhat. Otherwise, hail the DS

    IMO the awesomeness of the DS is mostly due to its backwards compatibility, there aren't that many truelly great DS games out either. If they can keep the PSP alive long enough for it to build up a decent library it might still have a fighting chance (or the PSP2 will if Sony is ever crazy enough...).

    That said, the DS plays Castlevania, Fire Emblem and Advance wars games. It wins.

    If you like retro gaming, that is actually the most valid reason to get a psp, as it is a more then serviceable ROM player. Speaking of System Shock, someone is actually porting it to the PSP, how awesome is that. Get a 1 gig memorycard, go to the underdogs, and grab what you can.

    And no truly great DS games??

    Well, the screenshots are big, bigger than the display of a PSP but the textures are simply what I call low-resolution, I don't think the smoke makes that much of a difference. Operation Flashpoint from 2001 has smoke, I'm not sure about HalfLife, only played the demo(same for System Shock) and 1999 I just said because 1997 sounded too early.

    I don't want to say I dislike those portable things either, they're just expensive and I wouldn't call the graphical quality awesome, but maybe it looks better in motion.
