When a PDA is better than a GBA for Gaming

An anonymous reader writes "Conventional wisdom says that it's silly to buy a $300+ PDA to play games when a $100 Game Boy Advance SP is going to be better at it. At the same time, no one says that it's silly to spend $1000+ on a PC to play games, when you can do the same thing with a $199 PlayStation 2. FiringSquad just posted an ASUS PDA review that focuses on some of the games that only a PDA has the horsepower for, and helps readers figure out how to pick out the right PDA."

  1. Buy Nothing! by essreenim · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I'm tired of hearing about all these new fangled
    things that people are stupid enough to inveest in and never use. With all that life sucks up (job, other needs) there is little room for all this, those that buy these things are suckers, there are e-mail cafes everyehere.

    If you really want a lan game you can do it without that much inconvenience, same goes for e-mail etc.

    Too many people are willing to have new gadgets hanging from there ears, inside there clothes, inside their watch, up their ass!!!

    We are not borgs.

    There is only one gadget I want.

    Every day, I dream of the spiritual and intellectual satisfaction this gadget would give me.

    What is it?

    A high powered radiation dampener / jamming device ..to save my body from being dowsed in EM radiation and maybe help others too, and so I won't have to listen to insecure muppets groaning into their cellphones on the bus every day I come home from work.

    I have strong feelings on this subject as you may know.

    I am also disappointed in Nokia especially right now
