Interview: Peter Molyneux On Curiosity’s Failings, GODUS

RPS - Last time I spoke with Peter Molyneux, he was practically abuzz with renewed vigor. He’d left Microsoft, started his own hand-picked studio, and ascended back into the high-concept realm he so loves to call home. But reality has a way of dousing even the most excited of flames, and Molyneux knows that better than just about anyone.

The dude really needs to stop over hyping his projects and let them speak for themselves

Godmars2904165d ago

Why start being sensible now?

I just hope no one waste money on his kick-starter.

NYC_Gamer4165d ago

100% agree,there is no reason why mainstream developers should start using kick-starter.I'm sure 22Cans could afford to fund their own projects with all the money Molyneux made @MS.

StraightPath4164d ago

has no one discovered whats inside the curiosity box? he claims it will be life changing lol well i will not be wasting my life and time chipping away at a virtual cube. Ill wait until someone has wasted their time and life and puts this up on youtube or somthing. Then onces its somthing really silly and too hyped up imagine the outrage.

0pie4164d ago

with so much shit comming out from his mouth i wonder if is mouth is actually his ass.

Peter Molyneux's new game is set in Fable's Albion

Project currently codenamed MOAT.

JusttJD0099186d ago

M.O.A.T

Misleader of all time?

jznrpg186d ago (Edited 186d ago )

It’s between him and Phil. I’d vote Phil

Obscure_Observer186d ago

"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!

GhostScholar186d ago

What exactly has Phil mislead about? I can’t wait to hear the verbal diarrhea you come with.

Cacabunga185d ago

Still waiting for Milo and Kate.. most lmao game OAT

Wait.

His name is still used as a selling point for new games? Seriously?

jznrpg186d ago

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.

RaiderNation186d ago

He's like the "Tom Clancy" of video games.

InUrFoxHole186d ago

Lol what the hell man?!?!?

Number1TailzFan186d ago

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.

sagapo186d ago

Populous was another one designed by Peter, released before B&W, godlike game as well, pretty good too.

Giblet_Head186d ago

I quite liked Magic Carpet growing up.

Obscure_Observer186d ago (Edited 186d ago )

"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.

Becuzisaid186d ago

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.

Obscure_Observer186d ago

@Becuzisaid

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.

Profchaos186d ago

Does Milo live under a bridge there

shinoff2183186d ago

Captain overseller is returning. Ain't heard his name in years.

shinoff2183185d ago

Peter was overselling games way way before cdprojectred, and bethesada

Peter Molyneux has high hopes for Playground's Fable

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.

Damm thats a name I haven't heard from in what seems like since forever.

Nebaku288d ago

And we thank the lord each day.

Michiel1989287d ago

he actually was in the news every now and then with a (couple) scam games he made

Double_O_Revan287d ago

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.

A failed hack designer has high hopes for Fable lol incoming flop confirmed!

Godmars290287d ago

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.

Godmars290288d ago

Peter Molyneux: Hideo Kojima minus ability and skill.

Godmars290287d ago

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?

KwietStorm_BLM288d ago

I wonder if those hopes are higher or lower than Milo?

The 10 Most Expensive Microtransactions And DLC In Games, Ever

From Xfire: "Remember when you'd buy a game and... that was it? You got the full experience by purchasing the full product one time. "

potedude1115d ago

Damn, Train Simulator is costing the big bucks. That game is kinda fun but not if you purchase all the DLC.

Relientk771115d ago

I will never understand why people pay for this crap.

Master of Unlocking1111d ago

"All the DLC - Train Simulator 2020, $10,145"

No wonder we're witnessing an increasing number of ports from PC to consoles, you can't nickel and dime PC owners with all their mods over there, lol

"Legatus Pack - Star Citizen $27,000"

Ouch!

Planet Calypso - Entropia Universe, $6,000,000

WTF...?!
