its exactly because the people that matter in the industry listen to him that he gets to do these things and still actually has a job. His predictions might seem laughingly unlikely to be correct but thats because we are comparing his accuracy to people in this site and people in this site tend to only make predictions that are either obviously going to happen, based on already leaked info, or in a very small spectrum of topics that only gamers care about, while he covers a far more broad spectrum of predictions that "the people that matter" actually care about. I often laugh at his fail predictions as well, but obviously investors and developers appreciate his predictions if he has kept his job for so long.
