Evidence That The Phantom Console Is A Phantom
from the doesn't-look-good dept
Terry Donaghe writes in, bringing up the story we wrote last month about mysterious Phantom gaming console that would supposedly allow all games to be downloaded - instead of inserted via CD/DVD/Cartridge. There was a lot of controversy over whether or not the company really existed, and now there's an article at HardOCP that suggests the whole thing is a big scam. They track down a bunch of leads concerning the CEO of the company which show he has a history of less-than-honest business dealings (specifically raising money and squandering it), and then contact him directly and listen to him squirm as he tries to explain away the points they make.

Oh and BTW
I'm the CEO of the company that is going to release the next greatest game platform, even greater than the Phantom.
So start sending your venture capital checks my way so I can start construction of my new home, err, I mean offices and labs...

Most of the hardOCP story was a plant by someone that was trying to screwn Tim R out of money.
HardOCP was irresponsible to post it. And "Phree" is even more dishonest.

Re: Phantom
what a load of shit. This has been an ongoing scam for years now. All they do is put together a computer in a custom case and rip off people stupid enough to give them money.
