im a pc gaming fan myself over console... the thing is, console is better when you wanna play witha bunch of friends in the same room, - at least without lugging your pc to a lan party.
SIG TOO SMALL! Maximum 1200x600 button and no more than 30 text lines of ALL SIZES and COLORS. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 6240x4800 instead of a 1024x800.Comment

That thing will never launch, and if it does, it will fail miserably.Comment

On Demand games are definitely the future.
This company has a unique approach. Free hardware, including the console, keyboard and controller but they make you sign up for a 2 year commitment at 30 bucks a month.
So it's a $700 console, but you'll have new games the day they come out without having to leave the house.
Time will tell

well i watched the rest of the vid
REAL pc gamers would never get such a thing... they are aiming for console gamers who wanna get a taste of pc gaming, without the pc, lol. But a hardcore PC gamer would not want to be tied down to a specific set of hardware... they want the option to upgrade different parts or get an all new system together - and ofr course, take their games with them. You cant do any of that with this Phantom shit.
And its all subscription based. So its not like your friends can bring THEIR games over without taking their whole system I suppose - unless they have a feature where you can setup a guest account and have them download whatever games they already own.SIG TOO SMALL!

Console gaming is far from dead. I'm pretty sure over 25 million PS2s have been sold and XBox is trailing close behind.Originally posted by strats

if anything - pc and counsole will seamlessly unite, thats what i think anyway. When a pc can have a good fighting game, then i will say counsole is out.Originally posted by candyflip

A high end gaming computer costs $2000+
An XBox costs as little as $119 (refurbished)
Consoles will become entertainment centers. I already have a few XBoxes here at home that do just this. This is the future.
Consoles are now getting pumped up ports of PC games (see Call of Duty)
While PCs are getting dumbed down ports of console games (see Spiderman 2)Comment
