| DirectX games perform *almost* the same...
You lose hardware accelerated 3D sound.
You run out of memory sooner.
You can't play in windowed mode without taking a huge performance hit.
You get occasional stalls and stuttering for no apparent reason. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | The whole thing is stupid. The game shouldn't have shipped like this, the replacement discs shouldn't be taking 3-4 months to produce, and you shouldn't be needing to see Activsion your old disc before they'll send you a new one. Flag this | Edit this post |

| The point is having movies on the move.
Memory stick capacity is high enough to carry several movies, and viewing them on a PSP is a lot more comfortable than on a iPod (except the touch maybe, but you can buy several PSP for the cost of a single touch, if you're not a rich, single male, the choice is gonna be straightforward).

| | Paid online and Live! are probably the worst of the bunch. Sony and PSN are our only hope there, if PS3/PSN doesn't end up smashing 360/XBL, we're doomed to paid online.... at least if the XBL service was well above average... but it's not. Flag this | Edit this post |

| So far Vista has been plagued with ineffective memory usage (basicly Vista DX10 was using twice the required memory). This was patched recently which brought back DX10 to something almost as efficient as XP (but not quite there yet).
So no, using Vista, 64 or 32, you'll still be inefficient.
XP64 might be another story though (64bit goodness + XP efficiency) Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Netscape 4 came in 96, IE4 came out in 97, bundled, effectively killing off Netscape as company that could make money from a browser (when Netscape 4 "final" was release, much of the Netscape dev team had already been disbanded). Flag this | Edit this post |
