ITS A FACT GUYS, LOOK IT UP. LOOK IT UP ON GOOGLE. (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6405445518216376043&q=ds)

This is quite good. A man who doesn't really know what he's talking about rambles on for a good 13 minutes without making any points against the DS which are more elaborate than "it's a piece of garbage, guys". But is it fake? Discuss!

I just had to laugh at that. He seriously had no idea what he's talking about. From what it sounds like he has never played a DS or a PSP in his life and this is what he's been told.

It was just so funny how he saidGrand Theft Auto. Liberty City Stories, it's a fantastic game (no it isn't). You get to drive around. In a car (really! A car? I'd never have guessed that), or on foot (drive around on foot? OK?) you choose.

I just watched more and he really has no idea. He said, "The PSP has built in speakers". Wow. If only the DS had this. Plus, it can take a memory stick. Does he know the DS doesn't because it doesn't need to?

Just watched more and now he says "The PSP can connect as a controller to the PS3, the DS can't do that. It can't connect as a controller to the PS3. Look it up." I'd never had guessed that. Nintendo's console hooking up to Sony's console? I also love how he says "Look it up" after everything he says, or "I heard it on the news/radio/TV".

Just watch this, it's so funny. I won't say any other of his comments for you, I'll let you see how stupid he is for yourself.

Gee. If you have a DS and your friend has a PSP you can't play games together.
Who'd've thunk it.

Oh, and of course, your DS can break on a trampoline if you're not even jumping folks!!!!

Retarded. He had no idea what he was talking about. Being both a DS and PSP owning household over here, I'd know.

BTW, what in the hell is a gigaflop?? I could have sworn DS cards were one gigabit.

EDIT 2: http://searchsmb.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid44_gci212195,00.html
OK...still, gigaflop is a measure of computer speed not storage.

Yeah, I saw a link to that somewhere else already. I tried to watch it, but I just got really bored. That video could be cut down to a third of its length if he stopped pausing idiotically and repeating his "facts" over and over.

But of course, I think this is supposed to be a joke/parody. That guy is completely clueless, and the "points" he makes are completely laughable. So I don't think this was meant to be taken seriously. If anything, this is supposed to be poking fun at the fanboys of the PSP.

(By the way, I thought "Gigaflop" was just something he made up! It's funny to know that it's a real term...)

I made a parody. Right-click and save as. Do NOT stream it.

I didn't have time to make a video like I wanted, so I recorded myself rambling into the microphone spouting off basically the same crap he was (complete with random pausing, stuttering and stumbling over words! :D)

Then I edited my voice in Nero Wave Editor. I changed the pitch to 80%, sped it down a little (only a little) and added an echo.

Lemme know what you guys think. =P

EDIT: Yes, according to the "more videos from this person" sidebar, this person DOES have a ten-hour video of them sleeping on Google Video, as pointed out in my parody.

EDIT 2: A freshly-typed transcript in case you have trouble hearing parts of it! YAY NO ONE CARES

LoZ's commentary...

I will attempt to do the impossible...
I will watch the whole thing then come back and post everything with a time marker for every point he makes...

-later-

OH MY GOD!!
HE HAS PLAYED HIS PSP WHILE IT WAS HOOKED INTO THE WALL!!

*runs off*

-

Sorry folks due to the fact that LoZ Hero has a sudden impulse to go and kill "fatman" this comentary will be cut short...
Let it be known that he made it to the 6:17 mark...

Let us wish him luck on his quest...

Godspeed, LoZHero...
Godspeed...

EDIT:

Well I want ahead and watched the whole thing...
I will not however do anything about a commetary...
It is best that anyone who sees this will be scarred and/or burned...

About my journey...
No such luck...
Couldn't find him...
Found a little pudgy kid with glasses and a PSP...and facial hair...
I punched him...
He cried...
I felt better...
Ahh...

Also Liberty City Stories is coming to PS2 kinda screwing over the people who bought a PSP for it.

The DS owns the PSP, I know, my brother has a PSP.

s.w.a.t

22nd May 2006, 11:54 PM

One of the points that he made against the DS was that you had to plug it into the wall, and he then listed that as a good point for the PSP.

Bottles', that commentary you made was SOOO funny! I laughed so hard with the part about it has NO COLOR... it, it doesn't even have Black and White! Look it up! OMG that was so funny! How did u get that voice, it was cool sounding!

AWESOME. Both of them are just plain awesome.

Oh, and $300 for a DS? Er.. I think that guy got his facts mixed up as the PSP is about 300 or maybe 250... crazy person...

EDIT: I just saw the "PSP Sucks" one and OMG that was SOOO funny!! "Sure, you can WATCH music and LISTEN to movies and see pictures.. but.. the DS.... SHOULDER BUTTONS!! Like, my shoulder here, except it has abutton on it! Yeah!"

WOW there's some funny stuff here. On all the paradies.

EDIT AGAIN: Wow, I just watched that 20 minute parody and it was awesome, it totally owned s*ny! I've gotta show that to my friend who's PSP crazy, he'll be in for it...

Once again, this has really made my night. So...freakin'...funny...

Ice Mario

23rd May 2006, 12:06 PM

Heh, that's funny, provided that he wasn't serious.

I can play my PSP while it's hooked up to the wall. I'm serious, I've done it. Look it up.

How can that be serious.

Bottles98

23rd May 2006, 05:03 PM

My favorite part of "DS Rules" was when he said

And, by the way, garbage and trash are the same thing.
Just so you know!

Haha.

Theguyoverthere

23rd May 2006, 10:22 PM

My favorite from the PSP sucks parody is still the "SHOULDER BUTTONS!" part. Oh, and the battery part, that was funny. "What would you rather have, a hat or a battery? I don't know about you, but I'd rather have a battery cause you can use it in a toaster...

Hollow Note

24th May 2006, 01:15 PM

I haven't seen the parodies yet. I watched about 3 minutes of that old guy with nothing better to do than make up false facts.

The battery life gets sucked up by the two screens. Except that the DS's battery life seems to be better than the PSPs.

UMD, just because it *might* (I always thought it stood for Ultra-Mini Disc) have the word Universal in it, does not make it better. The DS doesn't skip not can the card be scratched so it doesn't work.

Colors: They really have different colors? I haven't noticed...

Graphics: Most of the games I've seen for the DS over the PSP have better graphics.

Garbage & Trash: NOT THE SAME THING! The movie is garbage while the guy is white-trash.

I'm watching the rubuttal with Psycho Mantis. And for his information, I CAN put a sandwich in my PSP! But it has to be a UMD sandwich.

I love the parodies. In the order they are in is the ordr in which I like them. I hate the guy the original one. He's crazy! The Japanese one is awsome. He is like a nerd that can kick your ass!

EDIT: I discovered that this is a joke. If you check his archives, he made a 9 min. video called, "Sony Sucks". It's him saying PSP sucks and DS is good. So he is just a comedian. HEre it is. (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=902109023681812200&pl=true) LOL, he is putting down "widescreen". Check it out, it's funnier, if you watched the first one!

24th May 2006, 09:50 PM

I like how he thinks the Game Boy came out in 1987, rather than 1989 when it did come out ;)

He also heard on the radio that you can't play UMD movies on a Nintendo DS. So... this guy's either just trying to get a knee-jerk reaction from the people who watch it, or he seriously has not left his house in years.

Wow! He suck! DS is WAYYY better than DS! He say PSP is godly but look his other video:

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=902109023681812200&pl=true

He say PSP sucks and in the DS video, he say PSP rocks, WTF??

He say DS need to have stylus but we can play with fingers too! DS got a microphone, Free online gaming, Touchscreen, Dual screenz and we can flip the cover. PSP looks like PS1, DS looks like N64, N64 better than PS1 !!

I'm confused.... This is the same guy that made the DS sucks... is he just messing with us or does he really like the DS but made the DS sucks because he wanted to poke fun at the sony fanboys? I'm really confused...

Hollow Note

25th May 2006, 01:10 PM

Basically, he was just condensing all the "fan-boy" arguments that you'd hear online in one 12 minute video. And then doing his own rebuttal, using the same logic. It's pretty funny when you realize he was just being sattirical the whole time. (Still mega boring to watch...)

Well, know we know he's just screwing around, since he used virtually the same arguments in this video AGAINST the PSP. lol.

ChillyDark

25th May 2006, 07:49 PM

Bottles should make another parody, based on PSP Sucks, if that one he made with his voice, isn't enough. I think these parodies are hillarious, the one with the guy in the mask was hillarious.

Anyway, yeah, I may do another parody soon, this time of the guy's PSP Sucks using the same arguments and voice I used last time...only, of course, against PSP.

it isnt even a contest. aside from being new, and fun, with games that utilize the touch screen and microphone capibilities, the nintendo DS right at this moment (canadian)cost less than 200 dollars, and comes with a game.

PSP is 300, no game (65 each, please.) can't save (cha-ching, another 65 if you want a whole whopping 32 megs), soo over 400 bucks later, you can enjoy your portably regurgitated GTA and Burnout.

DemyGod

3rd June 2006, 02:39 PM

Thank god we know this is a joke. When he said if your friend as a PSP and you have one you can play games on it, but you can't with the DS.
In some games your friend doesn't even need to own the game and he can still play you on it. I was getting pissed off lol untill I heard his PSP sucks segment. Yeah, he made one, I heard it on the news, look it up.

Psst. Buddy. Read the topic. This isn't the first time he's done this kind of thing.

I guarantee within the next week he'll have one talking about the PS3 sucking.

He obviously does this to get a reaction out of people, and then psyche them out at the last moment.

Dricenticore

29th June 2006, 07:04 AM

Hes right. the Wii WILL have nothing new. The controllers the same, the games are EXACTLY the same with new graphics, and they arent even making a download centre for older games! Its an outrage! Its EXACTLY like the N64! Even the name is EXACTLY the same!
SSSSSAAAAARRRRRCCCCCAAAAASSSSSMMMMM

But the PS3, now THERES so,ething new. The controller is new... come back in half an hour.

There is NOTHING wrong with ANY console to date with the exception of the faulty wiring in early xboxs, but that was fixed. Saying nintendo sucks is like saying all video games suck, since it pretty much REVIVED video games.
Saying Sony sucks is saying using disks for games sucks, which we all know it doesnt XBOX/Gamecube fans.
Aying Xbox sucks is saying... come back in half an hour.

Hmm I just have to post about this...

Well I seen this vid a few months ago... and... well..
To tell you the truth I did some research the day I saw it and found out that the guy had a fansinatign idea of how to prank a few people and make a few funny videos.. of course if you take it the wrong way.. you might think hes a fat arse on crack that doesnt know what hes saying, Yes he made PSP and DS vid. they were meant to both be watched by the same person. If you listen closley he says something about the psp screen to small then on the ds vid he says its widescreen. It was indeed a prank/funny thing
