So? Everything he says is "speculation" technically.

I heard him say Starfield would come out this fall, and he said BF2042 will be on GP day 1.

If later on he backtracked, that's not my fault.

He never committed to that. He said it's possible although it's highly unlikely as he knows from sources of where that game is production wise. And then doubled down on 2022, late 2022. WHich ended up being correct.

Id also like to add grubb seems extremely defensive in making it seem like kojimas is now wholly on xboxs side. Anybody else notice this?

Yep.

There's also the fact that the article states that if there is a Kojima project in partnership with Xbox this is the stage it is at:

Microsoft is making this move in part to specifically aid Kojima. That legendary developer was previously going to make a game with Stadia, but Google has backed away from games. The Metal Gear creator is now in the midst of negotiations with Xbox to produce that game. Kojima Productions is still in the early design phases for this project.

So basically that has zero implications for anything that is already in production (and has been since Death Stranding).

Kojima Productions before covid had multiple projects they had started from inception of studio. Right now he's got multiple things going on, one is with Sony for Death Stranding Directors cut, another is " secret project" he's assisting in, basically overseeing only, and his next project he will be all in on is the one with Xbox.

He leaked a bunch of accurate stuff too, that people didn't know about.

He has access to some sources.. like anyone who "leaks" things.. you can tell when he's "leaking" something vs "predicting" something that he doesn't have info on, because he says as much.

His record of "leaks" isn't particularly bad.

He's just also a douchebag lol.. I support banning his tweets.

But I support banning.

ALL TWEEEEETS

My issue with grubb is his knowledge of the industry is pretty shit. But they guy knows people for sure.

But anyways.. it's the exact same prediction I've been making about Kojima here.

Timeline
- After Death Stranding, Kojima did an interview where he said he was interested in "Cloud Gaming"
- He then was heavily rumored to have a Stadia deal
- It was then heavily rumored that deal fell through when Google decided to not invest in games directly for Stadia
- Then the MS rumors picked up

MS is really the first company to do that corny "use the power of the cloud to make games" shit.. Stadia then ran with it even further.. but have clearly backed off.

It's different than just game streaming.. not that Sony couldn't do it, but I don't think they are eager to jump into doing some cloud-only games. MS on the other hand would be far more eager for multiple reasons, and are the most likely place at this point Kojima would end up if he wants to do a "cloud only game."

It also just fits his focus on "Strands" aka social elements.. if a game is only available in the cloud, and is running on servers that are all in the same DC, he could dream up some cool social aspect for that game. A big ass Kojima MMO of sorts.

So who's changed their vote in the last 24hrs 😛

Only fools. If everyone believes this, Master Mind Kojima won't be happy so he's planted doubt to test. And people are failing it bad.

"²⁴O ye of little faith! For the puzzle was laid in front of you, and you turned your backs? Fools! ²⁵Has any man answered why the prophets of Sony and Konami have not revealed the truth if the truth is not in what we know to be truth? ²⁶For the enemy will plant the seeds of doubt and the foolish will partake of it because they didn't want to believe with their lukewarm hearts. ²⁷Verily I say into thee that until all is explained away, not a single comma or period will be removed from the truth that Silent Hills is coming."

people don't listen to him either correctly or just listen to people that deliberately misconstrue what Grubb says.

This guy's a fucking goner after this ends up being a ruse (which it likely is). Stabbed himself happily. Going to be glorious seeing what goes down, and I wholeheartedly do not condone fucking around with developers.

Didn't he delete the original S.......L tweet too?

Yeah I'd hope Sony kills his partner account.

But as I have been saying.. the guy has nothing to lose.

He sold "10+" copies of a $2 Android game once, and likely only a handful of a $5 Steam Early Access games. There is no reason to believe this guy has any sort of funding, or was ever in danger of ever making any money lol

If this turns out the way I think it will, what is fraudulent is going to be IPs, like IP infringements that can not be said to be just referenced. They are not directly ripping off Sony, they are using their platform to rip off other IPs in their software product, and they are not ripping off people.
I am pretty sure it will do 'references' that completely rip off other well-thought-out games. Perhaps personal defamation and impersonation could be filed against them if there's proof they laid out these 'coincidences' beforehand with a plan. The first batch may end up with cease and desists filed against them if they put out a game with a price at the end of all of this, while right now it seems like they are putting out a free app to demo their game, and thus no harm done.

"You think it makes logical sense to keep a fraudulent scheme going while actively litigating?" I never said that but if you want to strawman my points you could do it that way. They haven't done anything yet, this doesn't preclude Sony from building up a case against just to be safe if they think this situation warrants it. Also until BBG makes any gains from anything, they are warranted benefit of the doubt in a judicial sense. Public opinion, like myself, thinking BBG are a scam is whole another thing.
Hahahahaha Sony getting scammed?
 
Wait. So what is making everyone jump off the bandwagon? What did I miss.
The most prominent one is they deleted their S_ _ _ _L tweet. Likely after getting some strong worded emails from Konami. If not Konami then Sony. But they got those emails alright. Also, they pinned 'no relation' tweet up top.

Other than that a number of prominent figures in journalist and gamedev side announced their doubts.

6 years of this guy being a BS artist who only released crappy Unreal Engine experiments didn't do it for some reason.

Friends, prepare yourselves.. find a nice comfy movie to watch, and rest your minds from the sickness of hype clouding your thoughts.
