*Sigh* Trooper... we've been over this already... the screen isn't THAT small.....

 

[kotd]

Its a damn ugly machine. i'm very not interested. I'd get a DS instead.

 

[DaveC]

Small screen and an even smaller library of games, many are shitty Zodiac ports. The games sucked on the Zodiac and are even worse on the tiny 2.8" GBA sized Giz screen. Meh, I will get a PSP instead.

 

[bast525]

hey all I'm saying is the screen isn't THAT small... I held one in person at E3 last year, the screen didn't strike me as being too small, well it's smaller than a PSP screen

I'm' not trying to say if it's a good system or anything like that... it will be just like the GP 32.... but minus the huge homebrew scene I guess Doesn't really leave much. It's too bad they dont make it open source like the GP as the hardware is VERY powerful and well suited to continue the legacy of the GP 32... well I haven't lost all hope that the Giz will have some good homebrew stuff pop up at some point.


I just wish there was more info on the Gizmondo's capabilities, more screens and stuff... there are screenshots out there that make it look like it has better graphics than the PSP, but some people have said these screens are fake... considering they can be found on the official gizmondo website, I somehow doubt they are faked pics.....

Ok, Maybe it was a little over the top, How about this one.

[Squidge]

Yeah, the Giz isn't that bad, but for the suggested price of £229, not many people are going to be interested, considering the DS and PSP will be cheaper, and will have many more games. Slash the price by £100 and bring out a free launcher, and it may survive for a few years.

 

[bast525]

yeah the price is friggin retarded but I guess they are considering the other things it does like GPS... but really most of us could care less about that... it IS a game system and any extras they put in there are just that... extras... and they shouldnt' charge an arm and a leg for that stuff.

 

[Kop_007]

I like the adverts on the telly.

This is another thing that on paper, it should be the bst thing ever.

The screen isnt that small but when compared with the Zodiac, PSP or even the GP32, it is nothing.

If it wasn't so expensive and it supported the homebrew scene, I'd consider it.

[mattmagoo]

After watchin a tv programme with a title i fail to remember it became obvious who would be amoung gizmondos prime consumer base..............



PAEDOPHILES

I mean, come on, if all these kids have GPS systems pinpointing exactly where they are, and a paedophile has one..........................

I cant believe no one at Gizmondo thought of this, and if they have, did they do anything about it

 

[junker]

whoah, you guys spell it like that? for a sec i thought you meant pdaophiles, like people that love pdas or something

 

[mattmagoo]

how do "you guys" spell it

"we" spell it in English

 

[trooper]

And isn`t "Giz" American slang for cum, Sperm etc. :rolleyes:
