ACTRAiSER writes "Lik-Sang.com once again took a close look at a new toy for gamers: the Sony PSP. The loading time for several games seems to be quite long." From the article: "Loading time and battery life seem to be the big factors which decide about the PSPs success or failure in many gamers eyes right now.

  1. Has Sony never heard of the Game Gear? by BTWR · · Score: 3, Interesting
    Back in 1990 (or so), the Game Gear launched against the Nintendo Gameboy. This is looking very similar:

    Better graphics: Game Gea (by far)

    Backlight: Game Gear

    Color Graphics: Game Gear

    TV Tuner option: Game Gear

    Battery Life: Gameboy (by FAR)

    Overall Winner: Gameboy

    (hint, hint, Sony...)

    Why can't any of the places comment on battery life yet? Gamespot said they can't either, and that it would come later. I don't see any reason for them not to mention it unless Sony told them they couldn't if they wanted to have the PSP early.

    I can't help but feel that there's something to hide if that's the case.
