33.000 games already ready.. (Probably means PC games)

# Dolby Digital 7.1 surround
# 3 GHz Intel prosessor
# Nvidia graphics card
# 256 MB DDR RAM
# More than 100 Gigabyte harddrive
# Built-in wireless radio communication
# Integrated networkcard
# Wireless keyboard/mouse
# 2 USB-ports
# 4 game controls

(Translated from Norwegian by me)

Will use a modified version of Windows XP.
You can download games from the net, and buy them online as well.
Will be available for order from Dec. 15th, so they're still keeping a lot of info under wraps.

So, let me get this straight.  It's a computer.  .....  
























What's new about that?  I can play all the games the "phantom" can play on my computer.  The only difference is it hooks up to a T.V.? I can hook my computer up to a t.v.


Another stupid idea by a clueless company.

honestly, I just bought my X-Box, and that should be all I need, because it's a very good system, and I can't imagion getting better than that for video games. I mean, what more can you possibly do?

Neither PS3 or Next-Box will be hitting game store shelves until 2005 at least...the next Nintendo console may be here as early as Fall/Winter 04'.
