Major Nelson = CBOAT?

 

[Amentallica]

Cboat's replacement, only with more misleading information.

 

[BakedYams]

secret: he is CBOAT

I'd like to see some proof instead of speculation! Besides, CBOAT must be protected by us gaffers!

 

[Frologic]

Now we need Mounty Nelson from the Xbox Canada team to join neogaf

 

[R3TRODYCE]

Who?

Exactly.

 

[Face it Tiger..]

It bothers me when the information is inaccurate or incorrect.

you can't deny the #truthfacts!

 

[Palladium Pen and Paper]

It bothers me when the information is inaccurate or incorrect.

Is there ever a case where you can tell how the game of telephone broke somewhere along the line and how an original bit of info morphed into the final "leak"?

 

[Pwn]

Man, I feel like I'm joining a TV show.

Not much to say has he? is he banned already?

 

[Begaria]

Now, let's return to our regularly scheduled programming.

Yeesh, it really is "TV TV TV" with you guys, isn't it?

Ha! Just kidding. Welcome to NeoGaf.

Can you give an example?

 

[DrForester]

What service did you serve in to achieve the rank of Major?

 

[BakedYams]

Nope. Not my style. Plenty of people in the industry do but I don't think that's a look for me.

Great to have ya on board Major! Although be aware, we have some insiders on this forum that give us all the juicy tid-bits!

 

[Major Nelson]

Is there ever a case where you can tell how the game of telephone broke somewhere along the line and how an original bit of info morphed into the final "leak"?

Yup. I've seen it happen a few times over the years.

 

[plainr_]

Mr. Larry Hryb, how did you come about the name "Major Nelson"? Always been curious about that.

 

[nib95]

Who?

Insiders who have a rough idea of which games are coming to the PS4 and which aren't

 

[Iacobellis]

Larry, which console did you like better, Xbox or Xbox 360? Why?

 

[SuperOrez]

I have no idea whop this is.

 

[Jagxyz]

DrForester?

 

[EightBitNate]

Yup. I've seen it happen a few times over the years.

So what's your policy on commenting on rumors and such? Are you just going to play dumb?

I have an idea for Major Nelson's tag... anyone remember the CAGcast where Wombat called him the Ronald McDonald of Microsoft . . ?

 

[AustinFelix]

Yup. I've seen it happen a few times over the years.

Latest being 30% turning in to 50% .... Right?

 

[WetPotatoBread]

Not done w/ it yet...but it feels like it will be "The Last Of Us"

Edit: Ohhh...PS 4 -

Not sure yet.....

How dear you not say InFamous: Second Son, burn him GAF.

 

[chadskin]

NeoAMA. This should be a thing.

 

[babyghost853]

Haha, well if it seems like I tend to cut the Xbox One some slack, it's because I have a very good friend developing for the machine as a first party.

Now that you admit it, please don't go claiming that you don't have a bias or agenda anymore. The bolded is the reason why, and it shows in your post.

 

[Barzul]

Nope. Not my style. Plenty of people in the industry do but I don't think that's a look for me.

Major, when will see an official video of the OS in action? I'm very interested in the gesture stuff that Yusuf Mehdi demonstrated at the XB1 reveal. But we haven't really heard much since then.

 

[DopeyFish]

What service did you serve in to achieve the rank of Major?

Man, no need to ask questions with obvious answers... That service was Xbox live.

 

[DrForester]

What did you get your doctorate in?

What is this an AMA?

 

[statham]

But CBoaT is never wrong!

cboat has been wrong many times

 

[randiangamer]

Welcome aboard Major

Seems nearly impossible to have an answer from you (based on the HUGE amount of questions already posted) but i would love to know something: Are you going to pack a free game on US XBOX one bundles?

Welcome again!

Did you have to take a kissy face selfie with your email address scribbled as verification to join GAF

 

[hawk2025]

Let's thrown some juicy questions in here:


1) The UI video that leaked today -- when do we get to see the real thing? I really liked what I saw, but I want to see more! Much more!

2) Why have we not seen a blog post from you like the one from the beginning of the current generation, where you compared the specs of the PS3 and 360?

 

[Major Nelson]

Larry, which console did you like better, Xbox or Xbox 360? Why?

Probably the Xbox 360 since I joined the team before the launch, therefore I was more directly involved with the planning (features etc.) of that console / Xbox Live.

Major Nelson = CBOAT?

Hahaha.

Readig that 360 vs PS3 blog posts back in 05...

No

 

[pharmboy044]

Yup. I've seen it happen a few times over the years.

What's your opinion on that dashboard leak? Someone in the other thread mentioned that the brother of the leaker got fired.

 

[GavinGT]

Probably the Xbox 360 since I joined the team before the launch, therefore I was more directly involved with the planning (features etc.) of that console / Xbox Live.

Are you still heavily involved in planning, or do you mostly deal with the community these days?

 

[Majine]

Larry, any comforting words to us tier 2 countries getting the console next year? ;(

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

Major Nelson = CBOAT?

Come on, guys. Have we ever seen Major Nelson and CBOAT in the same room at the same time? Use your heads, people! The truth is right before your cheeks!~~

 

[Tashi]

Larry, which launch XB1 game do you see yourself playing the most this fall?

 

[Iacobellis]

Probably the Xbox 360 since I joined the team before the launch, therefore I was more directly involved with the planning (features etc.) of that console / Xbox Live.

Good point. I remember you mentioned something along those lines in an interview I watched online recently.
