The Phantom...Lives?

An Anonymous Reader writes "G4's Attack of the show has a writeup and video of a demonstration of the Phantom Gaming Service." From the article: "I certainly wouldn't be at this company doing what I'm doing if I wasn't absolutely sure that we're going to launch a product. It's natural for people to be skeptical. I think a lot of the skepticism is building on itself at this point: people are skeptical so therefore they become more skeptical and therefore they become more skeptical."

    Also, you wont be spending $300 on the box. He makes that clear.. the box will cost little or no money... and that's what makes this so appealing. Say it costs 20 bucks a month.. say I'd spend 800 dollars on a gaming PC. That's 40 months of gaming...
