CBOAT continues obliterating the nonbelievers.

So, to translate, "No one has any idea what was said or what it means."



Is paying for online a "feature" that gets cancelled? "Feature" sounds like a positive thing.

You're right...removing a feature doesn't sound like a good thing. I don't see him hinting at any good news next week.

CBOAT hinted at a good Xbox One related news some weeks ago. I wonder what he was referring to...

Whether CBOAT was inferring it will be good or bad news is entirely up to interpretation due to the wording.

The only definite good news from the post was that the Black Tusk game is looking good.
 
What bothers me is more the glee and enthusiasm upcoming bad news is being treated.

You can definitely see how excited some people are to see the Xbox do badly.

You Bet!. After the shit they tried to pull they deserve it. I'm glad for the people that are going to buy one that they are getting a much better console and situation than they were going to, but fuck everyone involved in making those decisions and policies. Mostly screw the attitudes that came from MS about all of it and how we all just need to settle down and take what we are given.

I think they still deserve to take some crap and a sales hit to re-enforce the whole issue. They don't need to go under or anything but I'm still not sure they get it.

I'd have to imagine CBOAT is in a very high level position, or have a very high level source.
I say that because yield issues seems to be a very tightly guarded secret within the industry, so only a handful of MS execs would be in the know regarding what kind of yields they are getting.

Agreed. He said the cancellation would make you say "wow" so I thought it was good news. Whatever it is, it's huge because even he/she doesn't want to leak it here, so it must be contained to a very small group of people at the moment.

CBOAT and this thread in particular are the reason I joined neogaf. But after watching all the Juniors who I assume joined around the same time as me get banned, I mostly just lurk and try not to post anything to shill-y.

Anyway CBOAT never disappoints. Looking forward to more truthfacts next week.

I knw a few people joked that CBOAT could be one of the journalist out there. Preferably Adam Sessler.

I don't think he's in the know that well. Sounds more like a friend of a higher up that either has loose lips or seriously doesn't like to work for MS

Out of curiosity, what exactly is there inside info on in relation to weight lifting? Supplements or something?

Yea, supplements are discussed. But their are two segments of bodybuilding, natural and geared. The latter take steroids and other drugs. Some of the "naturals" use drugs to give them a competitive edge while still claiming they don't take any hormones. He more or less exposes and talks about the taboos of bodybuilding such as gay4pay and drug addiction.

What if CBoaT is the neglected foreign wife of a Microsoft Exec? This is just her way of getting back at her husband. Taking what information he tells her, and putting it on GAF, and essentially trying to make a breadcrumb trail back to her husband to get him fired. But people keep thinking the posts are worded in such a way whilst missing the obvious that they belong to that blonde, Austrian wife of Bob. That's the real tragedy.

You're still the most knowledgeable pair of buttocks I've ever seen.

Which post of his are you referring to? Wasn't the feature 'cancellation' reflected in MS dropping the mandatory Kinect connection for the One to function?

The only thing I remember him mentioning recently is the major feature cancellation in September.

I wish I could exhume the post, but he-she was alluding to some positive news related to Xbox services-software...
Hmm...I'm positive I read a post of his of that nature.

It wasn't positive or negative. Just depends on how you read it. He did write that it will amaze/wow us, though. Good amaze/wow, who knows?

Nope, I remember as well he was talking about a cancellation of something that will make people go wow! in september in some app focus thread.

He hinted at something being changed/removed that would make us say wow. Some people took this as potential good news.

Maybe it was just the no mandatory kinect, dunno.

Forgot about the follow up post linked above, though. Sounds definitely like bad news.

"GAF's biggest wanker"
It's kind of obvious that's not what he means though isn't it, more info coming from inside, not the companies controlled information.
He also did something similar right before E3 - said he might have more rumors right on the eve of the show but needed a few days to get more concrete sources. This sounds about the same.

In the first post, CBOAT said mid-September there would be huge news. If he is referring to the same news and it has been moved up to a convention week, it's pretty safe to assume that it will be good news.

I guess we'll find out next week!
