Does anyone actually like the N-Gage?

In your adventures through the Town of ZZT, you have been captured by the evil Dungeon Guards. Not recognizing you as the great escape artist you are, the guards have thrown you in the Dungeons of ZZT.

I thought it looked good based on what I saw in the commercials.

But I only believe commercials for so long!

In GMR they said the N-Gage had little to no sound on most games, a poor frame rate, and slow multiplayer dispite that being it's primary selling point. Also they said that you basically have to take the thing apart to put a cartridge (or whatever) into it. Alos low battery life.

I seem to recall them saying it didn't have a jack for headphones too, but I may be wrong.

It's so cool! It's handheld, but it's 3D, so you can play Lara Croft and Tony Hawk! Hooray! Actually no.

oh god. i played part of the lara croft game, and it's sooo awful... the graphics are so... glitchy, and it's just. not. fun. plus the n-gage buttons make it impossible to figure out what the hell you're doing.

:whole:
