For those who haven't heard, Sony are releasing a PSP2, nicknamed the NGP (Next Generation Portable). Sony are also releasing a PlayStation Phone, nicknamed the Sony Ericsson Xperia PlayStation Phone (probably not a nickname, but anyway). The reason these 2 weren't combined is beyond me. But anyway, I'll try to sum up each of their pros and cons in 5 points.
NGP
Pros:
-Looks sexy.
-Dual thumbsticks.
-Two touchpads (One at the back for cheap gimmicks).
-Decent lineup of games and devs.
-Nice technical specs (Apparently able to produce PS3 level graphics).
Cons:
-Not a phone (Although it does have 3G, so it may be possible).
-Ditches UMD, meaning anyone with an older PSP will have to keep it to play their old PSP games, just like they did with the PS3's PS2 compatibility.
-Not 3D.
-Doesn't have Phoenix Wright or Professor Layton (i.e. Not a 3DS), although Capcom and Level-5 are both confirmed devs.
-It's less portable than the Xperia.
Xperia
Pros:
-You can speak into it, and someone you know will be able to hear it and respond.
-It has Android OS.
-It's a phone with controls that don't necessarily involve touch screens or number pads.
-It has and always will have more games than the NGP.
-It's a portable gaming device AND a mobile phone, but you don't have to settle for casual games like Tap Tap Revolution.
Cons:
-Nowhere near as powerful as the NGP, but still good among today's phone standards.
-Touchpad analog sticks may take a while to get used to.
-Won't be able to play NGP games.
-Not as good looking as the NGP.
-Unimpressive graphics compared to the NGP.
I'm sure I've missed the important stuff and added in opinions, so feel free to keep your complaints to yourself. There's a poll. Answer it. Explain your answer below if you can be fucked.
