Phantom Releases, Retracts Game List, Debut Rated

Posted by simoniker on Tuesday January 13, 2004 @04:49AM from the not-so-phantomic-anymore dept.

Thanks to GameSpot for its story noting that Infinium Labs has released, then quickly retracted a list of game for its Phantom PC-based 'console' shortly following its CES debut. The story notes: "The list featured over 500 titles from 60-plus companies", and the page's new notice, which replaces the old list (Google cache), "urged visitors to return to the site to see a list of games 'pending developer/publisher approval,' which indicates some of the companies on the list [which include Atari and Take Two] may have asked Infinium to remove it." 1UP has also debuted a preview of the Phantom, taken from impressions of a working unit at CES, in which the console is described as "promising and grounded in reality" (though a second editor is " not yet convinced.")

Leave the jokes to the professionals. You're just not good at the humor.

on good authority that the flagship game title for the Phantom console is going to be Duke Nukem Forever.
