Poll: Open Pandora. The New Handheld!

[DazZ.]

I don't find the games you showed me as equal to games that came out from triple a studios in the last year. Also you didn't show some are better then some you said they are better period.

As I said almost at the start of you talking, "Hurray for subjectiveness".

Where did I seem angry? You can fill my post with whatever tone you want to imagine but in reality I don't seem angry. Whereas your post was capitals and exclamation marks, so it was a fair assumption on my part. Yours again was as baseless as when you accused me of having some form of love affair with open source games after I'd told you I'm only playing 1.

I already tried Pandora, and I must say they should warn customers beforehand. All those skags and bandits make it a dangerous place.

In all seriousness, I've never really been interested in handheld electronic devices, be they cell phones, blackberries, gaming devices, etc. The only time it comes in handy for me is for emergencies or if I'm going on vacation and need something to pass the time on a long airplane ride. Maybe I'm too old-fashioned, but I prefer not having distractions like that when I'm "oot and aboot."

Hmm, the power to do great good AND great evil...

It seems to be made for emulation, which, of course, isn't illegal as long as you own the console and games you're emulating. But why would you emulate something you could just play on the original platform?

Only thing it would be good for, is playing your PSOne and N64 games on the go.

But everyone knows you eventually end up in the deep end and start emulating stuff you don't legally own.

Ostensibly it's about playing games on the go that you otherwise couldn't, but realistically yeah. At the same time, most of those games are so long out of production that you couldn't find them if you wanted to anyway. Emulation and sharing is what keeps those games alive long after the publishers gave up on them.

Does anybody remember Infinium Labs' Phantom console?
I consider this the handheld version, and I'm sure it will fail equally hard.
