Kevin Bachus Quits Infinium

Posted by Zonk on from the ha-ha-ha-ha-ha dept.

In yet another piece of news confirming that Infinium is snake-oil in console form, Kevin Bachus has left his position as CEO of the company. Next Generation reports: "The company continues to promise the launch of the aptly named Phantom e-distribution console in 2006. To be honest though, the company has been promising its launch every year since the launch of the Xbox when they first started talking about the unit and rightfully about the promise of e-distribution."

    You know, when Microsoft beats you to market with something, you're really slow!

    (The Xbox 360 has "e-distribution" in the form of Xbox Live Arcade, where you can download games to the hard drive over Live).

    Is it just me, or has the console's image changed again? I mean...seriously...part of what's so entertaining about the whole damn saga is how often and how radically the "photographs" of the console change!

      Well they are just changing along with their competition:

      They started out competing against this.
      Now they are competing against this.
