After quite a while, I have decided to the the online article submission

I have read a few articles on mashable.com and the articles “Portable Gaming: Can Apple Take Down Nintendo And Sony?” and “Game Console Makers Feeling The Heat From Apple”  have grab my attention. So I decided to comment on this articles as they are related to each other. So this review will be about this 2 article.

First of all, these article are talking about whether Apple is going to be able to better than Nintendo and Sony in gaming terms. Phil Schiller reminded everyone that a PSP and DS doesn’t have a touch-user interface. Also, the games for both console are quite expensive as compared to a game on a iPhone/iPod. By saying that, it means that games on the iPhone/iPod are much more as compared to PSP and DS. Althought there are alot of games, gamers sometimes look at its graphics or details of the game. However, the are some people who will play iPhone/iPod games just for time to past and perhaps are more interactive to them as compared to a PSP and DS.

Secondly, people will want to play a game on an iPhone/iPod because the games are much more cheaper. It will go as low as $0.99 or free. Looking at how the economy is right now, some people will buy iPhone/iPod games. However, hardcore gamers will still go for console games just because the feelings of playing it is different. Plus, in terms of graphics are different. In addition, iPhone/iPod games may be too short as compared to a PSP or DS games

In my opinion, I will still go for a PSP/DS games rather than iPhone/iPOd games because graphics are an important factor to me. Currently, iPhone/iPod games graphics cant be compared to PSP/DS games. Plus, I will prefer a DS than iPhone/iPod in terms of interactivity as DS games are much more fun. But if maybe in coming years, Apple managed to create graphics that is better or the same as Sony and Nintendo, then I will just play all of them and gauge myself which is the best that i would play/bring if i went anywhere.

But maybe 10 years later, there will be only 1 console that will fulfilled most of people desired in playing a game on a portable gadget. Will be waiting for that day :D
