This is factual, indisputable proof?

Yep. Undeniable truth if you wish =/

Not quite.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's 100% impossible for it to be fake. I'd just like to know that for a fact, so that when I speak about this product, I won't be defending something that has been factually revealed as fake.

Milo was not fake.

Look here:

I give you a quote:

instead we're presented with Milo on his own, sitting on a swing by a river. Molyneux invites me to try interacting with him by standing in front of the screen and moving around the room.

As I move, the camera moves with me. Shift your body left and the camera pans left; tilt your body forwards and it zooms in, and so on. "Normally you'd be using the right thumbstick for this," observes Molyneux. It's a bit disconcerting, but in a good way; looking around to change your viewpoint feels a lot more natural than pushing a stick.

or

Now, he says, we're going to train Milo to recognise me. I'm told to smile and frown to start the process off, and I try to make things easy for Milo by exaggerating my expressions like a gurning champion at a rave. "That's too much," says Molyneux. "You don't smile and frown like that in real life, do you?" He clearly hasn't seen my Facebook page.

I tone it down a bit and sure enough, Milo jumps off his swing and walks towards me. "You OK?" he says.

"Wearing black, I see. It suits you." He's not wrong. About the first bit, anyway. But once the shock of Milo noticing this wears off, I realise he hasn't answered my question. Perhaps this is one of the tricks used to make you think he's real; and they are indeed tricks, as Molyneux is happy to admit.

It's unnerving, there's no doubt about it. Instinctively I reply, "Yes, thank you. How are you?"

 

SO who do you believe Eurogamer or a random youtube video?

Can we believe both?

i believe they had a polished Concept-Video for the Public, and a behind the screens showing for journalists of the Project in its early stages.

it's just a sign that the development was not ready then for a public showing and to avoid misunderstandings of how it will be like, that is not necessarily a bad thing, unless the finished product will not live up to the presentation.

 

Besides, doesn't the Article actually confirm that the Milo Video was staged? Since the camera doesn't pan with Claire's movements as stated in the Article.
