Ok, the review was not meant to be biased, but unfortunately it was, so I'm putting my little spin on it. Note that I have seen a PSP in action, but never played it, and I love my DS but I will try my hardest to not be biased.
Graphics: Ok, I won't lie. The PSP had better graphics by far, and it shows. However, I think that graphics are the least important part of a game, which is why the DS is not miles behind the PSP in sales. Ah well, I'll stop now
PSP > DS.
PSP: 9/10
DS: 7/10
(That I kept the same)
Games: Now the important bit for a games console, the games! In my opinion, the games the DS has are very varied. From 3D Platform action in Mario 64 DS, to shooting games like Metroid Prime - First Hunt to fun Mini-Games in Wario Ware and Project Rub (which, by the way, is great) to addicting puzzle games like Zoo Keeper and Polarism to racing games like Ridge Racer and Pokémon Dash, there is so much variety! Sure there are a few dodgy games like Sprung, but we'll allow for that. The only real problem is the lack of 3D graphics in games, which makes the DS look worse graphically than it really is. From what I've heard, PSP has mostly sports sims, shooters and racing games, and ports of PS2 titles, i.e. nothing that different, and also games I do not personally like. However, RPG's make up for it. On the whole, not as diverse.
PSP: 7/10
DS: 9/10
Gameplay: This is the part where DS loses out on some points. I don't know why whoever designed the DS thought it was appropriate not to have an analogue stick, but he did. Using the stylus to control 3D games is just awkward, so I opt for using the not-so-accurate D-Pad. However, the stylus is MUCH easier to use in games like Wario Ware and Project Rub, as well as Puzzle games. This may be why Nintendo are producing a lot of these right now, rather than 3D games. PSP on the other hand is easier to control with 3D games, but it eliminates the possibility of Project Rub style games. Overall, pretty even.
PSP: 8/10
DS: 8/10
Special Features: The DS has two screens, a touch screen and voice recognition, whilst the PSP has music and movies. They're actually pretty evenly matched but in my opinion the DS's features help gameplay instead of just adding stuff.
PSP: 8/10
DS: 9/10
(Look, I actually added a point to PSP and kept DS the same. Biased? Never!)
Overall: The PSP has good graphics, but it's just a bit '*yawn* Well what's new?', whilst DS provides something a bit different, and a bit special. Never before have you been able to interact with games in this way, send messages to your friends in your hadwriting or talk to the game. Innovation. That's the key, the word that Nintendo lives by.
PSP: 7/10
DS: 9/10
TOTAL SCORE:
PSP: 7.8/10
DS: 8.4/10
As you can see, there's not much in it, and I hope you find this review fair no matter which you prefer.
