  1. touchscreen vs. fun. on DS vs PSP - Developers, Press Sound Off · · Score: 1

    gamers don't care much about handhelds? now i know why he is working at IGN. isn't the gameboy the most popular game platform of all-time?

    do you guys really want to play games made with analog sticks in mind on a handheld?

    i would much rather have fun games then realistic looking games.

    i heard the marketing as.s from nintendo talk about what excites gamers and he was talking about a touchscreen interface. i don't really care about touchscreens, do you?

    i do love the wireless mulitplayer stuff though.

    i'll definately get a ds. sony stuff just seems a bit stale. but the psp will probably be purchased by rappers (it's shiny like bling) so get ready for ea to dominate on that platform.

    spell check is for sissys

  3. "15th-century Christian" on Christian Videogame Alternatives Explored · · Score: 1

    Well we all know how Holy the 15th-century Christian was. Once again Christians making people who follow Jesus' teachings look like assholes. Go figure.

  4. F1 and Other such news on Formula One Racing Games Exclusive To PS2 · · Score: 1

    As someone who has driven race cars (F2000,CART,Karts), I have acutally driven a couple of these tracks and do find them to be well represented in the EA games. This particular game looks to do the newer changes at Melborne justice. Though if you watch the reviewer play the game he obviously has never played a single F1 game in his life as he doesn't even know his breaking zones.

    As for realism. It is hard to simulate racing perfectly. In fact I have found that driving the real cars is much easier then playing the games do to the feedback a car gives you in the form of gforces. However, those of you who would rather watch 3-wide NASCAR should play NASCAR games. No sweat off of my back. And those of you who prefer making one great pass during a 73 lap race play the F1 titles. I like realism in my games as it does much for me in the way of finding my apex in a particular turn. They are simply two different forms of racing but they are both fun for their own reasons.

    Happy racing!
