The Official "The Snitch (@insider_wtf)" Leaker Thread

Definitley not fake. Probably is a Sony thing.

the leaker got everything right though? overdose has to be real but was never related to the microsoft partnership. it must be his next game that he's been working on since death stranding.

I mean there’s this rumor.

Gematsu has also heard that a new Silent Hill is in development at a prominent Japanese developer. That studio is Kojima Productions, according to a publishing source that wishes to remain anonymous, who also said that the game is funded by Sony Interactive Entertainment.

Ask me about my fanboy energy!
Pretended? Hmm? I knew when the first XBOX was out in the wild, the actual name of the new GOW, RE8 which capcom said didn't exist right? Nah I missed on specs, a source can be wrong but I don't play specs anymore. I still get calls on games (and other shit) but again after the way you all acted I just don't say shit. It's more fun not to.

Sometimes I feel like posters like you are mad that you're actually surprised when shit is shown and I'm watching shit just to see which sources are still valid. That gets me more hype than anything. Haven't taken this type of bait in a while and it will be the last. Enjoy your miserable day.
🤔
the lead graphics engine designer laughs at me for stopping every 30 seconds to just rotate the camera and look at the sights and listen to the sounds of their game world. "Everything in the game is PBR with multiple sources of volumetric lighting. All of the characters in this game are unique. You will never see the same character model more than once." As I am playing I realize how difficult this game is. I play several games competitively multiple genres (Smite,R6,SFV,CoD,BF,League) but I am getting my ass handed to me. I take the lead character out into a hallway and two enemies rush into the room shooting and moving in what appears to be a tactical pattern. "Is this fucking guy shooting at me while the other guy is trying to circle around to flank me?" he laughs again. "Yep, suppressive fire." As the enemy shoots at me I take note of the deformation of the geometry on display, chunks of cement give way revealing the metal pipes underneath that hold the structure together. Everything is based in reality including what happens when you shoot people or get shot. Its beautiful but it aint pretty.

I sit the controller down (I'm about to die again anyways) "The game is definitely running at 60fps" he shakes his head at me "No its running at 90fps locked. native 4k." dumb stare "On which machine?" he smiles "Both of them."

Two hours and several drinks later

When I asked about the performance of both consoles his response was "Both have the same target we will see if either of them hit that target. " I pushed further and asked what the target was and his response was simply."Above 12" That is not for the XseX or the PS5,from what I can gather internally both machines are targeting very high performance which lines up with hearing earlier that the machines would both be $499 with both companies Taking a loss.

Notes
The gdk they are working with is not the final kit for either machine and XseX is currently ahead in terms of sheer power. Sonys tool set is much more complete and refined.
The trailer is all actual game play. Not in engine but game play.
Every developer or engineer I have ever met day drinks.
 
bingo. thats his next game but people dont want to believe it. the moment del toro mentioned silent hill at the game awards last year was a big giveaway. theres been hints and rumours about it all over the place.

Well I’m a non believer but that’s only due to Dusk Golems console war stuff. Not that I don’t believe it’s a horror game but that it’s Silent Hill. That’s my issue with that rumor.

i would actually prefer a new ip. ive never played silent hill before but there has been way too many rumours and for a long time too. its looking more and more likely imo.

If yakuza is the start of a pattern, not sure I would be so sure.
The only pattern is RPGs arriving years later on Xbox. I highly doubt you'll see a day one release on Xbox of P6 and the other Persona game I heard of. But I guess its just a matter of months and we'll know more.

What exactly has he claimed?

- Persona for Xbox
- New Hollow Knight game being day one on GP
- Sept 2, 2022 being Last of Us Remake
- Some big long "We are..... 8 line quote". No idea what that is, but I remember someone saying Overwatch 2
- Had a big State of Play leak. Not sure if every game listed was correct, but I think at least most of it was

I don't think "legend" and "asshole" are synonyms as you seem to imply.

Someone who takes away from developers the chance to reveal the fruits of their hard work on their own terms belongs to the second category, not the first.

Hopefully, he'll be caught soon and dealt with in the harshest possible way.

I, too, think GAF should have spoiler tags for game trailers.
 
If this guy leaks Sony‘s upcoming showcase if there is even one, this guy needs to be brought to justice by gamers for destroying hype!

Overdose is Silent Hill.

Idk if this was posted here before, but the Snitch liked this tweet.

He also got ‘High on Life’ too but dropped it innocently that it wasn’t picked up on

Ok, I hate leakers because they're just annoying, but this whole "won't someone think of the devs" routine is just silly.
 
But he post about Overdose AND theres no vídeo of It.

You mean the video that Tom Henderson saw? It wasn’t for the Xbox Showcase.

Edit: To be fair we don’t even know Overdoses platforms. And today KojiPro confirmed that they are still working with Sony so we know there’s something besides the Xbox cloud project.



It’s anyones guess whether that’s Overdose or not.

working with Sony could also mean as part of his multiplatform projects.

Well unless something like the gamematsu rumor happens.
After that article, the only hints we had about silent hill and MGS were

* Konami asking Blooper to make a horror game for them (not confirmed if it was silent hill or not)

* MGS rumored remake is being made by Chinese company (called Viritas or something)

Then Abandoned came and many assumed it was Kojima, until latest articles came out and exposed how Hasan is just a fraud. Other than this, there are no other rumors linking silent hill to Kojima.

What do we know however

* Norman statement that he is working with Kojima on "second one" does he mean death stranding 2? or overdose?

* Overdose trailer, which we only came to know about for like a week ago. IF this was the project kojima was cooking for 3 years? but this runs contrary to him. Kojima was teasing and showing trailers for Death stranding every once in a while for 3 years before the game was released.

about "working on a game since 2019", are we sure about this? we know that his studio worked on making a PC version and director's cut in the last few years. How sure are we that he had the resources for it?

Overwatch going free to play

Plus the Tweet referring to Goldeneye not being at the Xbox show

Dude nailed several things

Well then you would be assuming that the overdose trailer was faked and sent to Tom Henderson. I do believe it was what he was working on these past few years. Death Stranding 2 and this cloud project were just started so I doubt he has a trailer prepared for either of them.

I don't like adding bad intents, but I have another hypothesis. It could have been "trailer" of the old stadia game, or an old project that the used to sell his project for funding.

It was sent to him shortly before Microsoft’s showcase. That alone was meant to do something. Also reminds me of when someone sent Dusk those pics that got taken down.

Would a pc port and directors cut really take up so much resources though? They could have done that on the side while the bulk of the team worked on the next project. They did death stranding in like 3 years, so they are a very efficient team. If they also had sonys backing, it would even easier to juggle multiple projects.

Well the game was made with the Décima engine. HFD did come to PC so there’s obviously people that have ported Décima engine game to that platform.
