CBOAT is still out there leaking: that's what I take from this. Which is probably good news.
Yeah good point, people can be wrong. It's the whole circus around it that gets me rolling. I think it stems from the perceived intentions of the insider as it were, some folk believe they take their preferences a bit too far and want to spread shit about a competitor and others thrive on it, placing on a pedestal I don't know, just genuine info either way will suit me fine.
This whole CBOAT thing was pretty funny.
The guy started leaking some negative stuff about the X1 a year ago and MS fans started complaining about him.
Then something happened with his TF info, he got banned, and everyone who complained about him took the opportunity to say "see, we were right!".
Now that he leaked halo 5...no one complains.
Meanwhile, people with at least some common sense understood that everything X1 has been shifting in the past year, and that his information, while maybe true at one point in time, didn't mean that was how it was going to be.
Is it odd that I'm disappointed that Halo 5 is coming out this year because it means Halo 2 Anniversary is likely not? Unless they do some kind of surprise release in June which would floor me.
Well you lucked out then since Halo 5 is coming out next year. It'll likely be the headliner at NEXT year's E3.
People still doubt the boat? Someone on gaf made a list of all the stuff he leaked/hinted so far and it goes way back. That things change sometimes or he gets burned, is the risk of leaking stuff early.
Some people started to hate/doubt him because he leaked a pile of unflattering MS stuff for a while (and barely anything about Sony) and others cheer him up for revealing the bad stuff. Although some of the cheering / adoration is just the typical gaf-fun train for the lolz.
Batista is Master Chief.
So what's the part with iron man referring too?
OMG. Haha. I just realized. I just woke up, please forgive.
Judging by twitter, the Halo 5 stuff was released to press yesterday evening. Shinobi seemed to know what was up on the Twitter as well. This doesn't seem like a big CBOAT leak like we saw last year, there were multiple parties who knew and he released a funny little hint the day before.
I'm not willing to say "CBOAT is back" just yet. This isn't near the quality of leak that we got from him when he was at his best.

He is probably going to leak safely for awhile since he got one thing wrong and the forum went down on him faster than Zephyr vs Orange.
I can't blame him on it either. Once bitten, twice shy and all that jazz. That said, I do hope he goes back to his usual style... We have a few press people who can leak names/pics/etc... but no one speaks truth-facts like cboat.
The thing is, the only reason why CBOAT got the 72 hour ban was because he wouldn't let go on his previous info as being current.
No one is surprised if information changes, but to stick to your guns even when outright proven wrong is intentionally giving out bad info. It's probably why he was a lot more cryptic this time around.
Seeing the performance and studdering issues, and Respawns golden goose of 60FPS over everything else... Its not surprising why he stuck to his guns.
..if you took them at their word that 60fps came first.
Is that an ent

Not sure,although it probably could just be referring to the fact that Iron Man recently joined (couple years ago) the Guardians in the comics.

They're banned just as quickly as they're worshiped, it's not like they post with impunity.
It's not hard to see why some love him and some hate him. MS made a lot of mistakes and he told us about them. One group of fanatics lapped it up, savoring every drop. The other group let it eat away at their very soul. Although, CBOAT literally saying that he would wash his ass with the tears of Xbox fanboys probably didn't win him any favor with that side
I'm just glad that he lived to leak another day. He was around before MS started fucking up and he'll hopefully be around after.
I think the problem a lot had with him was that he was the main source of a ton of FUD about the X1 before it launched... if I remember right pretty much up until launch about how the X1 was going to be a complete mess. Then it launched.. and it really wasn't what he made it out to be.
The X1 and MS had PR problems for sure with the 180 (mainly before).. but after the 180.. CBOAT was a main driver in continuing the FUD about all these issues the X1 was going to have.
Honestly, a lot of what CBOAT was doing sounded like a jaded employee who was attacking his employer because he was unhappy. It's not really an admirable trait.
The TF stuff wasn't the first time he was wrong about something, or overplayed what was going on.
