He predicted both Half-Life: Alyx and Deadlock with details years before the games came out.
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.
As I said, that was about looking in filenames of files and trying to figure out what it was. He had no idea what HLX even was, so he didn't predict Alyx, he predicted Half-Life 3. Same for Neon Prime... all he had going for was apparently people from the industry talking about the game and about filenames and variables that point to the name Neon Prime. Then he tried to infer what this could be and he was wrong about Neon Prime and Deadlock. All he talked was about the information he had, and any prediction to what the games will be was wrong.
I'm watching Tyler since years...
Admittedly I don't watch him, you might know better. But I do remember stumbling upon a video of his talking about a new Half Life VR game he was datamining at least 2 years before Alyx came out.
