Consumer Electronics Show Sets Stage for Launch of Phantom Game Service
Infinium Labs’ (OTCBB:IFLB) Phantom Game Service(TM) was viewed by more than 20,000
consumers, retailers, game publishers and consumer electronics followers at the
recent Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas.
The Phantom Game Service was demonstrated continuously during all four days
of the show at the Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Embedded Device Showcase exhibit
and NVIDIA(R)’s Next-Generation 3D Entertainment exhibit.
“CES was a highly successful event for the Phantom Game Service,”
noted Kevin Bachus, Infinium Labs’ president. “We were fortunate to be
one of only a handful of products demonstrated by Microsoft at the ‘Digital
Experience’ press event following Bill Gates’ keynote address on Wednesday evening.
And the Phantom was one of only four live demonstrations in the Windows XP Embedded
booth — one of the highest-traffic booths at the show.”
Mr. Bachus was interviewed by more than 25 reporters representing worldwide
media from U.S., Europe and Asia. An interview with Mr. Bachus was featured
on ESPN2’s “Cold Pizza” on the morning of Thursday, Jan. 6 — the
first day of the show — one of only six products from CES highlighted on the
program.
Mr. Bachus also participated in two CES panels, including the “History
of Games” panel, which drew a standing room only audience of more than
400 people.
The Phantom Game Service will be the first end-to-end solution of its kind
that, in addition to offering the greatest breadth of PC game titles, will allow
consumers to demo games before purchasing them and will stream these games for
virtually instantaneous start of play, all via broadband.
Infinium Labs’ service also appeals to PC game retailers and publishers. In addition
to sharing recurring subscription revenues and game sales with Infinium Labs,
retailers can reduce merchandising and shelving costs by offering the Phantom
Game Service, rather than packaged games, through their stores. Publishers that
distribute their games via the service will benefit from reduced production and
packaging costs.
Infinium Labs plans to launch its Phantom Game Service in the second quarter
of 2005.
