    New High End "Phantom" Gaming Console

    Found this one on CNN today.







    Here's a link to the CNN story:

    Interesting that it doesn't have a CD/DVD player. I think you have to either use pre-installed games or download new ones directly into the unit. The CNN story says only $300 purchase cost, but then $10 a month, like a subscription cost.

    The Phantom website:

    Seems to be made by Infinium Labs. Their website:

    StreamTipz is an independent guide to streaming services, devices, and cord-cutting. Clear, practical help for beginners with no hype or jargon.


    I checked out their little "demo" video. Looks interesting. Don't know about the subscription thing. We'll see, though!

    This console /pc is very interesting that it can play any pc game but no dvd player to load off of a disc just download through broadband.
