street228 Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 well, they certainly seem to have bitten off more than they could chew; however, being close to the launch date,(if they can pull enough from their 34 million, (12 month predicted return) to carry them through the launch, and into the following year, they have a chance. I sure hope, they can pull it off. I know, I would'nt want to be in that position....based on a product investment which is more than double: a 2 year return. Especially, in todays economic enviroment. Looks to me, they have no choice, but ride it out... now. "come what may" I predict, they go bankrupt(reorganization), before the end of month 18, but maintain an acceptable overall profit margine, within 36 months. This is ALL dependent, on an assumed success, with product, and reasonable success in marketing strategy. (just my opinion) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted September 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 This should come as no surprise, but it has been delayed from Nov 18 launch to March 2005. I'm betting that this will never see the light of day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Pablo Laracuente Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 I think it is a big HOAX, when i read the profile of the previous lead guy i knew this was going to fall down. Just think about it, he had driven a lot of companies Bankrupt by the time he came up with the Phantom, OMG...and now, who would belive this can be pulled out of the big toilet that is dragging it to the darkest of all places ? Anyways, we have another round of "Real" Next generation consoles coming up soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostInSpace Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 Still a Phantom Delay implemented to give retailers more lead time to promote game service, says company pres. Infinium Labs today said it would delay the launch of its on-demand game service from November 2004 to an unspecified date in 2005. . The SC post said March 2005 now it's an unspecified time.

Wolferz Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 It's not hard to fathom that the Phantom will be another major phlop. Especially when you consider the Phlim Phlam man behind it. I laugh at the gullibility of those who bought into it. The concept might have been viable if it were done by a reputable company. I'm with Grayfox on this one. Even if we all take our dollar and perform personal hygiene with it, we would at least have something to show for it. I would sell my crappy buck on Ebay, stating that some famous actor had wiped his hiney with it. I have but one word for the Phantom....Phooey! I'm through typing now, can't see for the tears of laughter in my eyes. This is very painful as my sides are splitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
