Banno_benny Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) EDIT by Adriaan: Ok, I have now looked into past GTAV related videos from this person to get a better idea of how he thinks. First, there's this video, whereby he talks about the false and inaccurate made-up leak on the game, not even questioning it and taking it as a factual leak: And here, even more shockingly, in April of this year he said we'll get info on GTAV's multiplayer modes "this month, or maybe next month": And here, he spreads further false info saying Rockstar said they want GTAV to come out in May 2013 (which is outside of the current fiscal year): I have not watched further GTAV videos of his but now knowing more on this person through his videos and how he blatantly spreads false information, I think it shouldn't be a surprise to think that this latest tweet of his is sh*te as well. ------- Original Post Just on twitter and noticed ChampChongs latest tweet. I know there is a lot of hate on this guy, but he does bring quite a bit of news to the gaming community. Heres the tweet: Alen (ChampChong) @ChampChong "I just got word that more GTA5 info should be on the way this week! Early next week at the latest.." Do you think he knows something, or is he making a wild guess based on what Rockstar said a few weeks or so ago? Check out his twitter for yourself. https://twitter.com/ChampChong Edit: He just uploaded his new video confirming. Watch it here: Edit: Sure I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel here, but we seriously have nothing else to talk about until Rockstar give us something!

Audiophile Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Lawl not this sh*t again. He's probably just making a guess based on a source outside of R*. It wouldn't be a long stretch to say that we'll get V info soon because of R*'s "in a few weeks". The Friday that just passed marked week 3 since the last batch of screens...so... But yeah, he does have "contact" with R* in some form. Last month they sent him an iPad and some R* shirts to give out to his viewers because they couldn't send him DLC codes to give out for MP3 as that DLC was free.

You may be right, but keep in mind Rockstar DID send him a custom made iPad, he might not be huge in the gaming world, but for a company to send an iPad for nothing?

Yes I just added that into my post as you were replying to me. I never doubted that he is legit because I've known him before he showed up on the forums due to his tweets about V. And clearly based on what R* sent him he does have contact with them. Let's see how long it will be until GTA5Videos jacks this off the forums.

Hvitdverg Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) Let's hope so, I'm planning on coming home from work in 10 hours and looking at the new GTA V trailer Edit. I really hate these GTA5video's on youtube, claiming they know so much, and analize everything.

Audiophile Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Not this sh*t again. Is this not the moron who said GTA V is a next-gen game? No, it isn't as far as I can remember. Whatever you may think of this guy, he is on R*'s radar. Once again...last month they sent him a custom MP3 iPad and some R* T-shirts for him to give out to his viewers in place of the usual free DLC codes they send him because as we all know the last DLC for MP3 was free...therefore there was no point in him handing out DLC codes from R*. That being said, I am not saying I believe what he said is legit. It's pretty obvious now that it's been 3 weeks we should get info soon.

The report did say no info before the 17th and today is the 17th so why wouldn't he trust it lol, that is unless R* does post today. @Hvitdverg Was that posted today? If so then I wonder why they're online so late at tonight , I smell something approaching today on the newswire guys or my name isn't Claude Speed, and it's not.
