their showcases of this scale usually have about a weeks notice
They should take a page from MS and have an ad on the PS5 start up the same way Xbox had it for the developer direct
Yall take PR responses that don't even counter what he said too seriously. Grubb is usually pretty good about stuff like this.
The same week as when ToTK drops, call it. Sony will try to dominate discussion with PS5's 2nd phase.
Guy shaved his head because he was wrong about Metroid Prime, and then it turned out that Nintendo was shadowdropping the game soon after. Obviously he doesn't have perfect knowledge of upcoming events (especially considering that these things are moved around pretty frequently), but an insider gets nine things right and one thing wrong and folks around here are like "this man cannot be trusted!" Like, yeah, it's a leak/rumor and take all leaks and rumors with a grain of salt, but it's more likely to be accurate than not and I think it's safe to promote a guy who has a solid, if not perfect track record over obviously fake 4chan leaks.
I get that there are a lot of people who don't like "insider culture," but it's kind of the wrong board to complain about that on.

The OP of that thread literally had to say Microsoft instead of Greenberg because Greenberg has such a poor track record in his credibility.
Wolverine tease and Spidey 2 trailer is expected.
I don't expect Persona here but we'll all know soon enough.

I'll trust his PlayStation info for now as he was spot on with the SoP. Granted always take anything in terms of insider information/rumors with a grain of salt but this barrage of "I wouldn't trust Jeff Grubb right now" is a bit silly given how much he's gotten correct for all 3 platforms lol.
I feel like everybody knows to steer clear of Zelda. Trying to dominate a release would waste potential eyes.
Anyway I hope we get Persona 3 Remake here.
Any word on P6 on other platforms or still only PS version?

My comment was just a small passing statement in a larger conversation. No worries.
Yeah indeed. But I still expect the new PS5 skus to be announced during this event cus there won't be a bigger event to happen this year.
it is odd that a lot of people want to defend their favorite insider who seems hellbent on making people's lives in this business harder for clout, but ok.
Never seen anything but PS. These are high level decisions though and we see what we're meant to see. For instance, I've seen previews for other stuff with Xbox logo like Yakuza games so who knows.
Yeah. The man clearly has insider information and sources knowledgeable throughout the industry.
June 1st, baby.
He's been saying this for awhile and his confidence is stronger this time around. I think we need to realize that despite his faults Grubb is a journalist and he often gets things right. He's not perfect but most people misinterpret his speculations in the first place.
No way you're bringing up something from years ago when he's gotten so much right since then.
It's just the "right now" seemed a bit reactionary is all. Grubb gets stuff right, he gets stuff wrong, but he has been right more than he has been wrong.
He literally never said that. He said that was pure speculation and not based on insider stuff and just a guess from the jump. That's completely different from claiming it's from a source. He just said he expected it to happen cuz he thought it would make sense and prefaced it by saying it was not anything based on any type of information he had received.
I dont think its going to be that big of a deal to get a spot in the showcase. Its just a form factor change at best, later into the year so it just would feel out of place at a software showcase
It's also odd people want to defend the marketing plans of multi billon dollar corporations but hey.
He literally said to me on this website that it is "Still in the pipeline" a couple years back
Christ. This feels like the easiest prediction ever (like a lot of Nintendo predictions about the timing of announcements)
- It's April 21st, if Sony had a big showcase within the next 7 days it's likely they would have announced it or we'd have far more rumors swirling (maybe...idk)
- SGF starts on June 8 and Sony is unlikely to want to get buried in the news coverage of everything there because if they can let their stuff breathe a little, why not.
- Giving only a week for the news cycle of their announcements amidst all the rumors and leaks of other announcements likely pushes their showcase out of June
- Leaving only May as a logical showcase window
- Unless it's pushed to July which just seems unlikely with how far out that is and with the rumor that Sony wanted to do a big showcase last Autumn but games weren't ready.
Personally I don't think that a PlayStation showcase has to avoid anything to be honest.
It will have million of views and Sony know this.
Sounds good to me. Also, makes total sense that they'd try to get out ahead of when other companies usually drop their showcases.
It's not that deep. I think people are just tired of the rampant thread whining. People act like Jeff's in here gassing himself up with these threads. Dude just shares things and then other people make threads and people get weirdly upset.
Pull up the quote or I'm calling BS.
He called the last State of Play. Sony could just as easily not have a Showcase, in June/May or at all. They didn't last year and their last one was in August.
I don't think that user was defending the PR teams but moreso the developers behind games that are taking negative hits without evidence.
Hyped, been so long since we had a proper Sony blowout. Can't wait for the Sony/SGF/Xbox Summer sandwich! Hopefully not long until something big from Nintendo after that too.
Prepares for disappointment. It's going to be like every showcase. Starts with a bang, hits a heavy lull for the middle 15-20 minutes, everyone claims doom and gloom, saved by the last 10 minutes of great reveals. Everyone claims 11/10.
Grubb isn't bulletproof, but the fact remains that his hits heavily outweigh his misses. If he makes a claim it's worth making a note of
That said if Sony skips out on this showcase I'm gonna need him to shave his head again

Some people take personal offense whenever something slightly negative is said about their favorite console brand. I remember when some folks were mad at him for having negative insights on PlayStation lol. It's so predictable.
Right I mean those of us that work in this industry aren't the ones making multi billion dollars lol, we just want to do our jobs. Dude's built a whole platform off of leaking shit and some of it is pretty harmful in the case of the Hi-Fi Rush stuff. It's junk food bait news when there's actual other fucked up shit (or good stuff!) in the industry that could be reported on.
