This thread sucks, but I find this a little interesting...Ubisoft DS support...

Seriously, what is up with it? I'm confused.

2 launch titles and Rayman DS on it's way, and now we have news of King Kong DS and Splinter Cell DS, Star Wars Revenge of the Sith and Bomberman DS...

Honestly, all games I could care less about. What I find interesting, is that Ubisoft did not simultaneously announce PSP versions of King Kong and Splinter Cell, which is what I think most of us would expect... I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet, maybe it will...

But for the time being, they look exclusive to the DS (in handheld arena), and I find it a little odd. I'd also like to point out that if these two games were announced solely for the PSP at this point, there would be threads about the lack of DS third party support etc...

So why has Ubisoft failed to announce these titles on PSP. One is a rated M game, considered by many to have a better home on the PSP, and the other is likely to be a huge movie franchise, which I think we've all grown accustomed to being multi-platform... unless you own a Cube, because it has 'missed out' on a few movie licensed games.

So why, is Sony's handheld, thus far, not receiving these games? Seriously. I don't know. Any thoughts besides the idea the annoucement might be forthcoming?

If these titles never hit the PSP, we probably wouldn't be missing much. The splinter cell series needs to change dramatically to spark my interest in it again and King Kong is based on a movie... nuff said.

Because you can port N-Gage games to the DS where it's okay if they look fugly, but not to the PSP.
Ding! Ding!

Part of DS' appeal is easy mobile cross development. That's why mobile only companies like Interactive Brains and Gameloft are getting their feet wet on DS.

Isn't King Kong being made by Michel Ancel's team (Rayman 1-2, BG&E)? That's enough to spark my interest.

The console ones (PS2, Xbox, GC) are, but I don't know if the portable one is as well.

:(

I'll keep my fingers crossed. Hell, they should port BG&E to PSP after Rayman DS wraps up.
