Interesting. Moreso the fact that I can read this now without having to translate it.

Okay then, I have some questions:

Truthfact#1
I can see the SDK issue being true, but how would that make streaming impossible makes no sense... Most of the live presentations are trailers and/or staged any way... And if that is true, how come they will have plenty of kiosks where people can test their games?

Truthfact#2
So, you don't know for sure localization excuses are BS, and is just speculating from the languages those countries speak? Dunno, considering that by localization they also mean voice recognition that's a perfectly valid excuse, because the same language with different accents are treated as completely different languages by voice recog software.

Truthfact#6
You mean they still don't know what their policies will be, or that whatever their policies are they are not releasing them until after launch?

Platinum in bed with MS?

I simply...I

Eh companies like Platinum and Obsidian will sell to whoever's buying. They have to to stay alive.

 

[c0de]

I wonder what is about the architecture. Do they still try to catch PS4? This would be stupid und unnecessary.

 

[Chuck]

lol Gies

and to think I used to defend that clown...

 

[Aske]

Kinectless SKU and a Platinum exclusive? Beautiful. Thanks for turning your console into something I don't have to wave at or talk to, MS. Show me some exclusive games over the next couple of years, and perhaps we can do business.

 

[S¡mon]

Sorry for even bringing it up.

 

[saveweyard]

That is a great top of the page reminder. lol

 

[derFeef]

I know the tweet is fake, but why is everyone getting excited? Isn't he just a random journalist or does he work at Sony or something?

 

[QP3]

YES!

Chillax homes, its fake.


Also forgot to say, thank you CBOAT! Enjoy the week there.

 

[Hrothgar]

It looks like they photoshopped this tweet which happened 5 minutes ago: https://twitter.com/shahidkamal/status/369165880623517697

Yeah, looks like it.

 

[googleplex]

Microsoft should have money hatted Cery, LOL

 

[Marvel]

That tweet is fake, calm down.

 

[Shauni]

So, I haven't read through all of this, so this is probably be clarified, but what exactly is this post? Is this person been very accurate in the past?

 

[harSon]

Lack of control in a big public arena or live stream. Having a more controlled series of sessions with journalists etc is easier to handle issues with boxes etc

The games are playable on the show floor though. That's infinitely worst than a controlled live demo if you're trying to hide something.

 

[Courage]

I know the tweet is fake, but why is everyone getting excited? Isn't he just a random journalist or does he work at Sony or something?

He works at Sony.

 

[cyberheater]

architectural changes lead to sdk-changes leads to unwanted results on dev-hardware.

It would seem odd to change hardware this late in development. Surely they are close to the manufacturing stage now.

And 20% sounds like a huge performance drop.

The October date thing is likely very real though.

 

[Nirolak]

He's the Sony executive in charge of third party relations for the Vita.

 

[Skeff]

The funniest thing about all of this is the only people who will buy the kinect xb1 sku are the hard core launch buyers who probably, if they look deep in their hearts, want it the least.

 

[jcm]

The first paragraphs are mostly about release timing. So is he saying Oct. release of XOne? Or that PS4 isn't releasing in Oct?

He's saying he doesn't think German porn is that weird. Which make sense because he's full of shit.

 

[Jockel]

Dear CBOAT. I'm gonna be at GamesCom. Can I touch you?

 

[ffdgh]

Haha at the top page gif.

 

[nhlducks35]

He's SCEE's Senior Business Development Manager

 

[RoKKeR]

MS really needs to get their shit together before launch, especially when you look at Sony, where things are seemingly smooth sailing and are ready to go.

Makes me think twice about my Xbox One purchase, but I'm a sucker for new stuff.

 

[Seven Force]

Can't say I saw the Platnium thing coming, but hey, gotta do what you have to keep the boat afloat.

 

[Nirolak]

The October date thing is likely very real though.

Yes, but that doesn't change the fact the tweet is fake.

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

Worried about the moneyhat on Platinum. I could potentially see Vanquish being the victim if it's an existing IP.

Why? Once again Kamiya had no involvement in that game. Seriously guys. Its not going to be existing P* IP

 

[fantomena]

CBOAT you so awesome!

 

[JCizzle]

Nevermind, fake.

 

[legacyzero]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

EDIT: Just to remind people, the dude is a person regardless of if you disagree. For the asshat who came straight in with "you're full of shit". Wish I had that as a disclaimer before I got quoted to hell.

It's funny that I consider CBOAT more of a reliable source than Gies :lol

 

[everyday math]

Hugeeeeeeeeeeeee if not fake.

It's fake.

 

[Seik]

Truthfact 4:
For those people who were mad about Bayonetta 2 being WiiU exclusive you will be somewhat unhappy about what Microsoft are doing. They have moneyhatted Platinum Games. Other Japanese developers are in play but Kamiya is the only one I am solid on. These games won't be for North America or even Europe which makes no sense but whatever.

Wha--?

 

[Ovid]

What in the world did I just read?

Is decoding OP's a thing on the Gaming side?

 

[Drazgul]

Eh companies like Platinum and Obsidian will sell to whoever's buying. They have to to stay alive.

They doing a console exclusive?

 

[Azull]

LOL Niro, Dat gif.

Also, god dammit why did we have to bring in Arthur "Secret sauce, owes 10$ to a neogaf user" Gies into this. I almost forgot him =\.

 

[alr1ght]

xbottles is my new favorite word.

Maybe a recruitment page.

 

[Trevelyon]

Wonder if it'll be an exsisting Platinum franchise or they'll be developing a franchise on behalf of a Japanese publisher and Microsoft.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Maybe S¡mon shouldn't have Facebook either.

 

[crazy buttocks on a train]

WHAT ABOUT POPERSIA CBOAT? WE HAVENT FORGOTTEN

i apolgis zde alreay.d

And who's this Gies?

duno

ok bed.

 

[Hrothgar]

He's saying he doesn't think German porn is that weird. Which make sense because he's full of shit.

Dayum son.

 

[rodan]

Has MS messed up their timings, or are they trying to launch sooner than planned to counter Sony?

 

[everyday math]

i apolgis zde alreay.d



duno

ok bed.

Goodnight!
Thanks for the info drop man.

 

[Can Crusher]

True, it was only 2 days away, Boat could have kept that to himself.

Why?

I don't understand how news 2 days from now will be worth more than news today.

 

[fastford58]

He's saying he doesn't think German porn is that weird. Which make sense because he's full of shit.

Haha!

 

[Windom Earle]

This reads like MS might not even hit the November release date... Wow.

 

[Htown]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

lol

Goddamn just give it up Arthur. Jesus.

It's funny that I consider CBOAT more of a reliable source than Gies :lol

Well, only one of them has been proven to actually know what the fuck they're talking about on a regular basis.

 

[TriniTrin]

ass stornm is coming. lool
