i cant see full version exclusives, but i can for sure see demo version exclusives. Like really if you only had the phantom to play half life 2 or doom 3 demos for abit before release, some people would buy a phantom for that alone.
Also i think they are mis-judging the market, if xbox live can only get 750,000 subscibers so far, i can only imagine what the user base would be on a broadband dependent system. Also take into account that if you have a broadband connection , pretty dam good chance you also have a PC to play games also
Hoax? Probaly not , we will get a box that does play something, but honestly i think they are just wasting investors money.People do get rich when a company goes tits up, and most of the time it the CEO.
