It is rumored to be a hoax. http://www.ferrago.co.uk/story/1984 It has been around for a long while.

[Hamma]

I've heard of that, its been tried before and it failed :(

[MrVicchio]

Maybe this one will work. i think it has a lot of potential myself.

[Happy lil Elf]

Hmmm. Either that site offers very little info or maybe I just couldn't find it. Nothing about what games would be available nothing about it's spec or capabilities. The site has a video linked to it and as I'm at work and have no sound so I assume that won't offer much either. /shrug it'b be a rare thing for me to spend money ona no name gaming console anyways. They tend to fail pretty badly and in todays world where there are already 3 heavily supported seperate gaming consoles I just can't see a no name competitor having a huge success.

Still no actual video of a functioning console, but there was a bit in there that might have been an interface shot... hard to tell.

This still reeks of a hoax.

[Sputty]

If it is a hoax Infinium will get anlly violated by every gaming magazine and site out there and won't rear their head in gaming again.

Actually, if you register, there are a number of shots of the Console functioning.

[MrVicchio]

One more thing, the system comes with a wireless controller and a keyboard and mouse.

Is that my IP in your picture???? not many bbnow Ip's out there especially since its a company in Dallas TX sold to Interquest.

Yes its real and not a hoax....like it or not.

Come visit me at the forums.

THere ill be beta testing by the end of the year of the Generation 1 console (silver box pictured) the Gen 2 (final production launch 6 months from now) not pictured is alot smaller.

Too much info to type about it all here. But we allow you to stop by the forums chat with em and partake in the full evolution of the console, a industry first, allowing gamers to see the whole process and get feedback on the development.

take care

[Hamma]

[MrVicchio]

True, but one failure means give up entirely? Just asking :P

What company has tried a pure online Console with NO CD ROM Drive?

Did I miss one?

[Hamma]

I dont remember the because they died a horrible death. It was a couple years back, only this one ran on unix not windows.

[MrVicchio]

Well Technology Changes, this things specs out more powerful then the X-Box and is upgradable.

[OneManArmy]
