I wonder what the price will be. I bet it will be real cheap for the console, and then their fees will be outrageous. I was reading some other stuff about it and basically every online game will have a fee, even PC games that dont have fees will have them. You pay by a subscription service that increases depending on how many games you want to play. You are also responsible independently for any fee's for MMO games. Paying 2 fees to play a single MMO, wow, whoever came up with that deserves title of "Modern Day Einstein".
Riiiiight.

Their website is a joke. 32,000 games huh? I'll just take my hoverboard over to electronics boutique and reserve one of these hotcakes.

Why would MS want to buy them?

It seems this might be an elaborate hoax. IGN did some digging and they found no patents of any kind registered to Infinium or "Phantom". They also tried to contact the company at the numbers given and they just got a simple recording with no way to contact anyone human.
It sort of seems like a hoax because this just comes out of the blue all of a sudden. There wasnt any pre-hype, early-hype, or any other hype saying they were working on it. They either think they dont need hype to sell  , or its a hoax.

Wow, I never thought my school project for web design: Infinium.com would get this much attention.
