Hello,

 PS> Hi,

 PS> I was really excited about this, finally something that will lift the
 PS> PC above the Playstation and Saturn.

 PS> Yeah, right.

 PS> Then I saw the price they want to charge 349 US dollars.

 PS> Shit, that's 50 dollars more than a playstation, and with a
 PS> playstation you get a lot more than just a graphics chip.

 PS> Is it just me or is this destined to flop as hard as the 3DO blaster
 PS> did ?


 PS> -!-

Could someone in this area tell me why the 3do Blaster is so bad.
I only that this product exists.
Can you give me more info?
Thanks.

Peter from Holland.

REPLY:

The answer is asking yourself, why would it be good? You can buy an
actual 3DO for the less. If they could have used the PC and 3DO board
together to create something new then I would then say they have
something. But without using the strength of the two combine and then
think they way it stands now is smart, shows me there are many
qualified people in the world for making decisions at Creative Lab.
What a skewed view they had on this one, peeeuuuuu.
