The Molyneux Paradigm: Hate the Past, Hype the Future

Hardcore Gamer: Peter Molyneux refuses to settle in the current environment of gaming; whether it’s good, bad or in between, the Lionhead visionary has never stayed in one place in the industry. He loves the future, but can never reach it. He hates the past, but can never embrace its strengths. Welcome to the Molyneux Paradigm.

Very true, every time Molyneaux makes a game he's like, "I'm making the greatest game imaginable". Then three years later, "I feel like my last game was a major disappointment and failed on so many levels, but my new game is literally the greatest game imaginable".

Rinse repeat.

It is easy to have visions of unique games that are amazing. The truly great gaming visionaries find a way to make those visions into real games!

Peter has vision, but he has always lacked on making them into a reality.

He has made some really clever games though, populas was a revolution in gaming, also black and white and magic carpet were all amazing.
The problem is he's never really progressed since, I don't know weather he's been restricted by the people he's worked for or he just ran out of ideas.
Or if its just a square soft syndrome were he just hasn't got used to what new generation of console/tech can do until its to late.

I'm inclined to agree (although I thought it was a bit far to call 3 a trainwreck, it was ok), the Fable series is good don't get me wrong but it never evolved how he wanted it to and it resulted in the series that got worse with each incarnation.

This guy is simply awful.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them
