you're whining about $250 being too much or a PSP. i didn't ask you how much YOU paid for an Ngage, i asked you how much it was when it debuted.

Probably not. It depends on your situation. If you commute to work or generally travel on public transport then you can probably imagine playing games on the bus/train.

Otherwise, there aren't many situations where mobile gaming is practical.

Nah, I'm not entirely that bothered. Not apathetic as such, but having had a Game Gear and a Gameboy I've had about 5 games for them both in total.

Nope, you're not the only one. It may work for many people but personally I'd never get around to playing a portable.

no, but you're dumb enough to buy one in the first place and actually use it as a phone.

As a GAMING device, it was a failure.

As a PHONE its great..

no im dead serious.. Sidetalking, sucks.. i admit that.. but do you have any idea how many fucking options it has?

Look, i have my NES emulators on it, IRC, Aim, Yim, MSN, and it runs ANYTHING java, and samba apps.. it ALSO has bluetooth, while thats nothing "new" it makes the whole side talking thing go away..

Its also a MP3 player, its also a Video player..

for a PHONE, with some "neat" options.. it fucking OWNS.. i wouldnt say its a 5 star phone, id give it a 3.5 or so.. but still for what I PAID its totally worth it.. AND you can pick them up anymore for 50ish anywhere..

ALSO, it has some of the best reception for a cell that ive seen.. and its durible as fuck..

do you drive?

i wouldn't get ANY use out of such a device with all that stuff on it unless i took public transportation, since that's the only place i'd WANT to use it for those other "options".

how can you play ANY games on it OR watch any video considering isn't the screen situated VERTICALLY? who's to blame for that? twice as tall as it is wide? for a top down old school shootem up that's fine, but it's gotta suck for everything else.

MP3s, i USED to use it using the input on my headunit in my car..

Video, great for little "giggle" clips.. nothing like a whole movie, but just stupid shit like some guy getting kicked in the balls or something..

and honestly, theres a "few" games, that arnt half bad.. not great games, but great for a plane ride..
