NowGamer speaks to Peter Molyneux about his latest Kinect project, Fable: The Journey...
Project currently codenamed MOAT.
"It’s between him and Phil. I’d vote Phil"
If Phil were the man that made my life miserable, I would vote for him as well.
Regarding the topic, it could be both Peter and Phil working together.
M.O.A.T takes place in Albion, so it´s possible that Pete is working on new partnership with Xbox, which imo, is nothing but great news!
What exactly has Phil mislead about? I can’t wait to hear the verbal diarrhea you come with.
If anyone knows his name you have to be extremely skeptical that what he delivers will be anything like what he says it would be and that’s best case scenario.
I remember Black & White (PC) but other than that I can only think of Fable, B&W was a pretty cool game tho at the time.
Populous was another one designed by Peter, released before B&W, godlike game as well, pretty good too.
"His name is still used as a selling point for new games? Seriously?"
The guy is a gaming legend for gamers who actually knows and played his games, like Dungeon Keeper, Populous, Black & White and Fable for example.
I'm certain that most who actually know who he is would contest your use of legend. He's the living, human embodiment of false advertising.

There´s an abyss between false advertisement and bad games.
Most gamers will get excited for games from great gaming creators rather than focus on their exaggerated promises.
Kojima described his Xbox exclusive game as "very unusual like no one has ever experienced before, leveraging the cloud." He said all publishers he presented the project, called him mad and rejected his game but Microsoft, because it´s too crazy.
Is Kojima exaggerating? Obviously. It´s gonna be a bad game? Hardly.
Imagine a game where Peter Molyneux presents an extraordinary set of ideas that players will enjoy for years to come. Now imagine that this particular game will come out because it will never exist.
One of the biggest reveals at this year's Xbox Games Showcase was the latest Fable trailer. After a lengthy stint of silence, Playground Games gave us a look at bits of the title, albeit in a trailer that was mostly made up of CGI nonsense headlined by comedian Richard Ayoade, who is playing a rather frustrated giant.
Molyneux asked about what he thought about the Fable reveal.
he actually was in the news every now and then with a (couple) scam games he made
The exact same thought came to mind when I read the headline. It's been so long since we've heard his lies and over ambitions.

Well, he's not associated with it. Giving interviews talking about features never at any point mentioned with devs let alone introduced.
It might have a chance.
Think you mean ethics.
Also, whose defending Molyneux? Wasn't his last game a literal ripoff with him offering a prize but not giving it?
Joy Ride Turbo launched 10 years ago today. The first title was Xbox Kinect exclusive, yet this sequel failed to support the device at all.
Poor Peter, Does Microsoft have him under under contract or can he just quit at any time? Because I know he wants to leave.
This guy is like king of bull when it comes to his games so I am expecting him in the near future to claim a lot. Apart from that mini rant I agree with him that they "need to prove Kinect" but I am unsure making fable on rails was really the answer. We will see.
And you've done Kinect nothing but good, what with presenting Milo as its flagship title.
Even though its canceled, and was never nothing more than smoke and mirrors...
"Peter Molyneux: 'We Need To Prove Kinect'"
it seems at the expense of Fable
Fable Journey is the biggest trash i have ever seen!
i hope the game doesnt sell and metacritic should be 50 not more!
So they can start making good games , Fable IV with new Engine , new IP or just close this studio!
