and it looks like the console will be even bigger then the xbox.
if it ever even makes it out I suspect it'll just crash and burn... I'll they'll be able to market it enough. plus the mock up is butt-ugly.

That's the biggest piece of vaporware bullsh1t I've seen lately! It's nothing more than some no-name company with huge promises looking for attention. No way that's gonna make it... besides:
Pay-per-play + So easy that a small child could use it =
Gimme a break, nobody's gonna let their kid start charging up their credit cards at random like that. I certainly wouldn't.

What? Have they suddenly come up with a new way to send RAM over broadband?
This has gotta be a hoax. I could go on, but this *is* the Comedy forum, so it's obviously not meant to be taken seriously.
Quite funny!

It is critiquing the features listed in the review HERE.
| QUOTE |
| - Fastest console on the market |
Usually the latest console out is the fastest.
| QUOTE |
| - Broadest selection of preloaded games |
Not a hard record to break.
| QUOTE |
| - Cross Platform capabilities |
Which platforms!? Have you gotten any console manufacturer to agree to this? Do you think MS would? Sony? Hell no.
| QUOTE |
| - State of the art design and architecture |
You already said that, ass. No need to restate, we know it will be the best until the NextBoX.
| QUOTE |
| - Advanced accessories and wireless capabilities |
Uh huh, just the usual accessories, M$ and $ony will match everything you try.
| QUOTE |
| - Online connectivity for multi player gaming |
Nothing new here.
| QUOTE |
| - Seamless upgrades and patch management |
Nothing new here, Upgrades avalible through Live.
| QUOTE |
| - A multi tiered subscription service that meets the needs of casual, moderate and hard-core game |
WTF? i thought you said that this was for only hardcore gamers!? (earlier in the review)
| QUOTE |
| - Demo games before purchasing or subscribing |
Really? So innovative! (Sarcasm)
| QUOTE |
| - Games on demand |
So i have to d/l them? Even with broadband it would be faster to go down to blockbuster. Unless the games are really small, in which case they invariably suck.

Blockbuster is really close to my house.
