HardOCP Wins Against Infinium Labs

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the justice-served dept.

An anonymous reader writes "HardOCP has won a huge legal round against Infinium Labs. The WhereIsPhantom website has all the details, straight from the court dockets. There is a list of orders a mile long for Infinium Labs and owner Tim Roberts to comply with by Sept. 30th."

    And that website is as non-existant as the console.

      "I think Phantom real enough and the intentions are there,"

      I hear you brother.

      BTW could I interest you in a USD34.99 coupon for Duke Nukem Forever? It's a once in a lifetime deal.

      j'king ;).

    Infineon got smacked down for price fixing its chips.

    Not a good week for Infin*.

    Anyone got a link that works? The phantom site seems to have disappeared into thin air.

    Infinium is a bit like a scab, if you pick at it it'll only get worse.

    Isn't this company/product the original vapor ware. Comments... Even the website is vapor.

      Well, they did send me a promise that they would release Duke Nukem Forever. It was handwritten in the blood of virgins. Strange how it smelled like ketchup though...

    No I think the system would fail 1) becuase the world does NOT need another console (and I challenge anyone to prove to me that consumers have been crying for another system) 2) because of its shit content delivery system (do we really want this, really? Most people want their games on media if for no other reason than to trade the crap/old games for credit at a store) 3) because people love an underdog, unless ofcourse, it's a boastful, litigious, ill-conceived underdog in which case you could sell tickets for front row seats to an exclusive showing of its spectacular and fiery failure. I personally can't wait for this thing to end in a smoldering ruin and bring shame upon everyone involved. Even if it is a good idea my wallet only allows for so many good ideas.

    That's quite a stretch, CowboyNeal, somehow turning "This Account Has Been Suspended / Please contact the billing/support department as soon as possible." into "HardOCP Wins BIG against Infinium Labs". Maybe I don't have the right one-time encryption pad?
