As far as I'm concerned, it's a hoax until proven otherwise. That is, when I've seen one for sale at the local game store.

Well, AFAIK you have to sign up for 2yrs/$30 a month.. $720. Possible.

I think in the begining it was a hoax, but so many people called em out, it made them want to come out with a product. Although at this time, I believe they still have nothing.

If it's a hoax, they paid a lot of money for their big shiny booth in E3. And for the shirts they were giving out. Expensive hoax, in my opinion.

I'd go farther than "hoax." I'd say it's an outright scam. Watch Infinium Lab's stock prices and the actions of their executives. I wonder how long before the FTC catches on. :P

The ONLY reason why anyone would want a Phantom is because they are too retarded to use a computer. Which means no one here would want one. And people that retarded are the same stupid people who actually open emails titled "Hi I'm Mary wanna fuckXXX" and click on the "you just won $100,000,000,000,000!!!!!!usd" banners.

Our game was on the Phantom at E3.

It's not a hoax. They may not succeed, but the hardware is real, and the streaming tech they use is real.

As I have said on other forums, it bears watching.
