Eh.  Too many choices out there.  This one sounds like a PC without a CD drive to me.

Yeah.  To a person like me who doesn't have broadband at home....that thing is worthless.

i like the idea i it coming with 50 games.   though odds are that 49 of em will suck ass and the 50th will be Tomb Raider 69: curse of the baked beans.

The children are right to laugh at you Ralph. Me fail english, that's unpossible. I'm learnding. Finally I didn't have worms anymore, and that was the happiest day of my life. So the Dr. said i wouldn't have so many nosebleeds if I kept my finger outta there.

It seems more like the 21st century version of Vectrex to me...



It'll be off the market in 18 months, tops.
Crier of the week: Terrorists of all backgrounds. Tantrums are selfish acts by children; extortion and murder disguised as fervor for a cause are both selfish and just plain evil. "We're gonna blow up things and kill people until we get our way!" There's a convincing argument, huh?

dpierce... that thing looks like something you built in your basement outta scrap metal.  ;D

I did have one of those in the 80s...and they all looked that way.

They were pretty cool for their time...now they're antiques by video game standards.

as far as i've seen, none of the consoles have really had much luck with the whole online gaming angle
why would they try to base an entire platform on it?

if you wanted to play games online, wouldn't most people just use their computer?

and if you want to buy new games youe have to download them i assume?
can u imagine the time it would take to download a ps2 game with a 56k modem?
sounds like someone hasn't really thought this one out too good
People fall down stairs every day.

I knew a couple different people who had one. Pretty fun.

HAHA.....what a scammer this guy is.  Good find on the article.

nice find GF.

im kinda shocked as to how people like that  get away with so much.  Where do they learn  how to obtain millions of dollars and really do nothing except party and go bankrupt?   and how is that legal anyway?  where is the secret school that teaches this shtein.
