So, The show ended kinda akward. I'm pretty sure Shu was supposed to show off fw 4.0, and a final speech from Shawn (1/2)
— Tidux (@Tidux) December 6, 2015

(2/2) was gonna show some stats from sales and then end the show with introduction of Bend's new IP.
— Tidux (@Tidux) December 6, 2015

I have no clue what happened to Bends new IP. Or the news of FW 4.0 (including name changes) I will try to find out.
— Tidux (@Tidux) December 6, 2015

So I'm taking this to mean that 4.0 is coming really soon and includes PSN name changes. Locked in!

Also means that Tidux was wrong about PSX.

Rorono · Dec 06, 2015, 10:28 PM

It's true that it ended abruptly..
And it's also odd that Shu did not go up once? He usually does. I kept waiting for the "Shu section"..

This type of sentiment is why I felt the thread was necessary.

With insiders, everyone focuses on if they're bullshitting or telling the truth. Do these insiders really have secret information? Was their leak true at that time? Did they just get confused? etc. It's all about verifying their claims, not verifying their usefulness. Tidux caused us to believe Bend would be their; Bend wasn't their. Thus if next year he causes us to believe a different studio is going to announce a game, statistically speaking he's likely to be wrong again.

Hence using the term "batting averages." It's all about how probable their pending leaks will end up correct.

So is that one under pending, or wrong since we didn't get a titanfall port?

I'm going to go with wrong, since it's almost 2 years old.

Tidux is a joke. Has he ever gotten anything right?

Legend · Dec 15, 2015, 06:49 PM

Remember how the Keynote at PSX seemed to end abruptly? Yeah, there was a reason, and we should hear what it was VERY soon
— PlayStation Nation (@PSNation) December 15, 2015

They are hinting that Kojima will announce a PlayStation affiliated game very soon.

According to this thread so far, nope

Dr. Pezus · Dec 15, 2015, 08:16 PM

According to those spanish tweets, Kojima might've been under contract until 12/31
