Why Sony can’t beat the DS
Sony’s PSP is not a bad device. I’m happy to say that the PSP has the upper hand versus the DS in a number of categories. Let’s review:
Graphics: Lush, fluid colours, animation, and detail on the PSP and its powerful graphics processor beat the DS’ underpowered GPU in just about every situation.
Sound: The PSP’s sound processor is much faster than the DS’ and therefore, sound is a lot clearer.
Storage Media: The PSP uses a UMD, which is an optical disc that can store up to 1.9 GB of data — the DS is stuck with the cartridge format, and can’t go much higher than 128 MB.
There is no doubt in anyone’s mind that the PSP is the more powerful unit. However, it does have its flaws…
