This look absolutely appaling... as far as i can tell this is a relativly low spec pc.. which you have to pay an enourmous amount for in suscription and what not, but is still claimed to be 'virtually free' my virtual ass its virtually free.
It has no dvd/cd capability, which any console (bar the ngc but who cares about that?) has.
You have to suscribe to it per month, and quite what you get from that suscription seems absolutely nothing, I could understand it if it gave you all games released on that console in that month, now that would be a good idea..... although as far as i can see you dont get anything at all and its just a way to scam money from you.
The fact that it knows which games are yours and arnt means friencds cant lend you games or you cant lend them your games, or do whatever you want with them annoys me to the depths of me my soul (assuming i have one left). So that basically rules out LAN parties or anything similar.
This begs me ask the question, why should you buy this rather than (for the money) a ps2 AND an xbox, or a really top spec pc?
Why buy this?
