Talk:Phantom (console)

message: "purchase a selected number of games for free each month" ?
:Since this console seems to exist exclusively in entirely fictional universes, I don't think the specifics matter much.--Deridolus 01:48, 29 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Since the subscription is a monthly service, one pays for that and then gets to download a number of games.  Since you only have limited space and no way to remove the games, you can only keep them for a short time.  It is akin to the NetFlix of the video game world. - 67.172.124.99 22:05, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

message: "All the hype and spin from the leadership at Infinium labs"? Sounds rather POV. Unfortunately, I'm not really close enough to the issues to know what's speculation and what's confirmed. Sneftel 00:58, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I've removed any POV content and the NPOV flag. -Asriel 19:32, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The article works fine either way, but "spin and hype" are not POV terms in this case.  There are documented cases of "spin" and "hype" simply advertising before a product is released which is thus far the only two things Infinium Labs has produced to the public. - 67.172.124.99 22:05, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Point of view 

message: I think that the Legal Conflict section should be moved to the Infinium Labs article.  There isn't anything in this section that pertains to the console, just to the company and the CEO.  Anyone have disagree?  --Polkapunk 17:31, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: This company has one product, the console (and now just the keyboard of the console).  Any problems that arise against the company and SEC allegations against its CEO are as relevant as they would be if they merely named the console.  -- Bobak 17:13, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

message: Should Penny Arcade be mentioned here? They spent a fair bit of time (and at least three comics) making fun of the product and implying it was nonexistant. Titanium Dragon (talk) 10:23, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Phantom prototype.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Phantom prototype.jpg

message: I'd like to begin by saying, I know the last 3/4 years of the Phantom Company have been horrible. But I'm talking as a stock holder of the company and independent consultant for them.
Things are turning around - we have a staff of 4 people, 4 people that have that old goal in sight and are working really hard to get the company going again.  WE have tremendous finacial obstacles to overcome due to previous members, - yet we are pushing forward.  The lapboard is in production as we speak, our inital shipment has been received and we are planning another batch. A blog has been created to track our progress and answer your questions - please if we could start a new page with Phantom, the 4 of us would deeply appreciate the support.

thread_title:  Breathing New Life into Phantom Entertainment  

message: Although the article states that the console "is not listed on the Products page of the website and has been cancelled," the website still lists the platform (re-branded as the Phantom Game Receiver) as "coming soon," and lists the 2004 specifications here. Thus, the "As of August 15 2006" subsection of "Rise and Fall of the Console" should probably be updated.

message: ...or even "Phantom (imaginary game system)" for that matter. After all, something that we have no proof actually exists can hardly be called a "game system". I find that the name of this so-called console is strangely ironic, and still have a sneaking feeling it was a long-running practical joke.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 135.196.27.62 (talk) 21:38, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
