Video Engadget starring Cat Schwartz: DS vs PSP
You love Cat Schwartz—we love her too, that's why she's the
Engadget spokeswoman, afterall. But she's
got more on her mind than yakking about gadgets, so she did a couple hits for one of our many pet projects, Video
Engadget. DS vs PSP answers the eternal question: exactly
what would happen if the DS met the
PSP somewhere on a playground in LA? We won't tell
you how it ends, but keep an eye out for our forthcoming director's cut (with alternate endings) on extended DVD.

I have been waiting to see this again since the Reader Meetup in DC. Its a great job. Very nice ad (wonder if Engadget will do the super bowl with this one).
sixdotcom @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
this is totally against PSP owners!
Kamalot @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM

That was amazing. And sexy. At the same time.
Plus, props for adding a few laughs to an already great day.

I advise our readers not to use the Coral Cache link. If we can't track how many downloads we get here, we can't hope to get further production budgets to make more of these in the future. So unless absolutely necessary, please try and download from our servers. Promise we'll try and keep 'em up.

Interesting to say the least..
aztecman @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
you're F#$@in' kidding me?!?!? DS is better than the PSP??!?! The DS is the biggest piece of crap in the gaming market.
Games, Video, Music, Internet, Photos, Multiplayer (adhoc and online), UMDs, better style, way better graphics/screen...
There's no contest. The PSP crushes the DS. It's ok DS fanboys, Mario can hold your hand, maybe tuck you in to at night. The PSP is a big boys toy.
DS, Pathetic.
Ryan Block @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
Please do not turn this into a flame war. It's a jokey video, regard it as such. You've been warned.
Pancake @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
#8 Registered Republican how does it feel being the only dipshit that took this at all seriously?
fischju @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM

Aaron @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
Too cheesy. :(
fischju @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
If u wanna flame go to the psp vs ds thats what its for.....but this is f'in hilarious!!
Gowtham Mahalingam @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
No knock to the video creators, but am I the only one who thought this was really dumb? I saw it at the DC reader meet up and didn't think it was funny then. DS vs. PSP was a good idea and I liked the format of the video however, I simply didn't feel any of the content was funnny.
Just my two cents =P
p.s. i still think cat schwartz is cool!
OffTopic Man @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
I don't get it. Isn't PSP far better than DS?
phi @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
i laughed when i saw it the first time at the meetup. great job guys
Thrustinj @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM

Ichiro @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
That was great! Cat fights are always fun :)
ShinyGuy @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
A directors cut? are you kidding me? I'll be on the lookout and i'll Tel our readers
Google Nazi @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
"Is it because i'm black!?"
"Your jut an underpriced whore!"
I enjoy the DS very much. PSP is nice too but my DS is compassionate towards me.
Daniel Alexander Smith @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
What is the music?
Ace-Boon @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
Very creative piece of work. someone should make a DS vs. PSP Part II: PSP strike back.

homer @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
honest opinion? i think it's lame...bad acting and writing. seemed kind of immature, but of course i'm sure i'm older (33) than most here. overall it could have been much funnier. not that the video project thing should be scrapped, you just need some improvements.
Dale Woodson @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
Pretty funny video. And how can #8 get all defensive??? That's actually a lot funnier than the video. The video is cheesy and done with cardboard boxes, so I don't know how you can get pissed and offended by it... Hopefully they'll be some more oddly amusing videos sooner or later...
Bryan @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
As a registered republican that is 33 years old.... I loved it. Thanks for the laugh.

hall @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
well, interesting to say, still PSP is nice
Terry @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
Ah ha ha ha ha!!! That was awesome! I've paid to watch movies worse than that.
But, my culture references stop at arguments about dead pixels and battery life, can someone tell me who does the hip-hop song built around the sample from Queen's Flash Gordon Soundtrack?
(And as far as platform preference, while the PSP is cool, my family has bought 4 DS units and 4 copies of Nintendogs since it's release last week, because none of us wanted to share - and I'm the "kid" at 28. DS has the Killer App - Read it and weep Sony)
Zeek @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
what's that great track at the end?
raaaaaa @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
WOW! believe it or not that was not only funny but informative and accurate. man we do miss CAT!
Ronald A. Dowty @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
I love Engadget but don't quit your day job guys. Next time have a contest or something cool like that.
DarX @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
Maybe good as a flash animation..but real life? Not even remotely funny.
chilko @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
it's absolutely amazing...
Kevin @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
the music was awesome. mad props.
hemmy @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
Engadget is cool and witty.
This video is anything but.
Joe @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
Making crappy films is a lot of fun. If you don't like it then don't watch them or try and make your own. Personally I think the girls can't act or fight... but so what. It's still fun to watch crappy films. I loved it!
My favorite places to watch crappy films!

The Nintendo DS rules!!
to #8
Mario is not the only great game we got... We have Resident Evil, Castlevania, Metroid Prime, Final Fantasy (game), and plenty more..
And yes, the PSP is a piece of crap! (I know cause I had one)
And no, the DS is not for kids, it for hardcore gamers!
long tran @ Dec 19th 2005 1:05AM
HAHAHAHA. I went to school with the PSP. Ah Winter, you're still funny as ever.
