:down:

I also predict that the DreamCast will make a comeback!!! h:

Poor DC.... just as powerful as the PS2... but overlooked. So much potential. It's actually BETTER than the PS2 in some aspects.. but not in others. :sad:

From what I've been hearing, it may all be a hoax. They have a website with a pretty snazzy (but no info) flash animation you can download. I've heard people saying it's just to drum up advertising for the guys who made the flash, the console will never exist.

i'd never buy a system that was sooooo damn dependent on an internet connection.

if the company goes out ... how are you going to play games? i enjoy retro gaming more than buying a new one at best buy.

my prediction ...

the new microsoft system will top the PS3 ... and you'll see mario on other platforms soon enough
