He didn’t predict those games. Especially with Deadlock, he did analyze files and watched footage from the leaked gameplays of people not holding the emargo. The many times he did predictions about Deadlock and speculation about what type of game it was, he was not right or very vague that it has to be right. But my point was more about prediction of what Valve will do in future (or prices) and he was not really good at it, at least not better than someone in 4chan. Sometimes it happens to be true by chance, if you do just enough predictions.
Not sure what criteria you are going for. He objectively was talking about HLX (codename for Alyx) and Neon Prime (early name for what became Deadlock) years before the respective games released.

That’s shortly before release, at that point the game was not a secret anyway.
Of course none of this means he’s any better at guessing prices than anyone else.
Well that better be good news… I groaned at $1,500 but Ive been waiting YEARS to get into VR because I wanted to wait for whatever new set valve would make and Jesus did it take forever
… I’ll do $1,500 begrudgingly, but it better not be $2k+…
BTW the article is based off Tyler McVicker’s prediction. He was never good at predicting…
He predicted both Half-Life: Alyx and Deadlock with details years before the games came out.
