Yeah. I also think we have to remember that Rare was lucky that Nintendo would give them all the time in the world and delay, delay, delay. Microsoft doesn't give companies as much time with delays (See: Halo 2), and I doubt Rare will get as much time as they want... although the game has been in development for 80 years, so they should've had a good amount of time.

Rare was very lucky that they had the help from Nintendo game developers. Even Miyamoto helped them with some games, if I'm right.

When M$ bought Rare, they bought their delays with it, I assume. You can't push Rare.

The closer we get to E3, the more speculation and hype will arise. I expect many rumors and many supposed facts to come out.

But the truest fact that we can all agree on is that, We won't know anything for certain until E3

IGN's Matt debunks Aries:

Quote:

I guess lots of people have been waiting for me to comment on these posts and either qualify or disqualify the guy. So here it is. Everything he's said is true. Completely true. I can't believe he spilled it all already!

If you immediately stopped reading and raced to the message boards to post a "Matt Confirms!!!11" topic, you've really made a jackass out of yourself. Well done. If, on the other hand, you've continued reading, even better.

Honestly, this Aries guy is a fake. But I have to give to him: he's a pretty good one. He's definitely on top of the industry and some of his predictions -- guesses, even -- are logical. He's made an accurate guess or two about certain things not related to Revolution. And he remains just vague enough in most cases to perpetuate his credibility.

But he goes too far. The simple truth is that nobody in the industry, except for possibly Satoru Iwata, Shigeru Miyamoto and Genyo Takeda, could know as much about Revolution as this guy claims he does. I don't care if he worked for Nintendo of America for 30 years. Nobody at Nintendo of America, including the highest-ranking executive, has the kind of access Aries professes he does. Nobody. And I have enough contacts in the development industry to know that advanced Revolution hardware is not in high circulation. I mean, some of the biggest publishers out there have yet to receive any information on the platform. Trust me on this. Some of these outlandish claims Aries makes are just bogus. And that's really the biggest giveaway.

I'm sure some of you would love to believe the guy. He makes Nintendo look like gold. But don't. Wait a couple weeks for the real deal.
And there you have it folks.

yea, I knew it was too good to be true. Oh well...

Re: Revolution BLOWOUT!!!
 
Yep. Matt's really not discreditting it all, just discreditting the source because he realizes that there is way too much information for the guy to be who he says he is.

Thats the kind of patience I'm talking about, waiting for Nintendo to tell me whats up with things over at NINTENDO!

Encouraging news....IGN has confirmed that Nintendo will show Revolution at E3 and discuss its design. In addition there will be videos of Revolution games. They will not however show the controller. Things this Aries guy said are starting to come true.

Microsoft and Sony will fight for first. I predict it to be Sony: First place. Microsoft: Second place (people are still gonna be brainwashed by Sony). Third Place: Nintendo because they think being secret is fun.

When will they ever learn....

Brainwashed by Sony? What the hell does that mean?
