Not sure why I would want to know whether I have emails on my games console unless they implement some sort of in-house email system solely for gaming news and using to register on games which would be good. Sounds like I'm the only one here that slightly likes it 😄 Expand They selling you an overpriced gaming PC...Seriously, who the hell checks emails on their consoles? Is that a common practice now? Where was I when this trend started becoming popular? 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It will definitely not be under $500 dollars for all its offerings - 4k VR gaming is expensive as hell and to get a PC to be VR compatible requires a lot of capital.

Lee Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I like the styling of the console. I doubt it will take off though, too much monopolisation in this market to complete with the major players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I mean, I'm as skeptical as everyone else. I even wrote coverage for VGR myself. But see, the people who aremaking this console are people known for doing technical achievements with their games. They also have a heavy background on the tech and gaming industries.

Expand I agree that it could happen and it would definitely bring more life to the console market but they lack the backing of many major publishers. Their reputation is nowhere near the Big Three so this may very well be a make or break situation for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
