Infinium Labs Threatens Gaming News Site

Over the past year or two, Slashdot has run a number of stories about Infinium Labs and their Phantom Game Console (that phrase still makes me smile, every time). I think we've been generous to them, taking their game console talk at more or less face value, despite the vaporous nature of the product. Now they've decided that threats are a better plan for improving their image than producing a real product, and threatened HardOCP over an older news story. Our own Robin Miller has talked to Infinium and written up his impressions of the situation.

    If you look at the troll's only journal entry, they've called it quits already: (cut and pasted for the lazy):
    And just after I began too. Apparently my 'karma' is now 'terrible' and this means I can only post twice daily. This happened because some people believed I was a 'karma whore troll'. I did a bit of googling and found the wikipedia slashdot 'troll' page. While this is all very fascinating, I really have better things to do than participate in a community like this.

    So goodbye and good luck slashdot!

    No mention of the "she's a guy" shit, though. Not a bad mornings' work :-)

    Yeah, but All "Good Catholics" won't go to the movie becasue the church tells them not to, and everyone else is going to hell anyway so the Catholics will just laugh at the poor sinner......
