After being met with more than a bit of skepticism following its announcement, Infinium Labs' console, the Phantom, has finally been unveiled by the company. Below a list of the console's features as announced by Infinium Labs.

You may note that something is missing: a disc drive or any other means of inserting game data into the console. The Phantom will supposedly be able to download all the necessary information to play games off the internet, demanding that users have a high-speed connection before playing anything on the console. Narrowband users as well as the elusive net-less gamer are out of the picture.

Infinium also continues to mention its long list of software support from several big-name companies, although exactly who these companies are and what games are in development is evidently still deemed highly classified. More information as well as a completely uninformative movie are available at the Phantom website.

that bad site that if you type it out it gets censored

Just figured you people would want to know. There's more at their website but you have to download everything and I wasn't up to that
