Peter Molyneux, the creator of Fable, is famous for enthusiastically overhyping his games to the point that they cannot possibly live up to players' expectations. This is the man who made the simple addition of a dog in Fable II sound like an industry-changing revolution.
So imagine their surprise, when GamesRadar meet Molyneux for a Fable III demo during E3 last week, and the first thing he says to them is: "Fable II's story was rubbish." He wasn't done. Before the end of their half-hour together, Molyneux had used that same word to trash the maps, menus, visuals, weapons and co-op in his last game as well.
The Xbox 360 was a fantastic console in its day with some truly classic titles, but what are the seven best games for the console?
I'll go with,
Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Culdcept Saga, Shadow Complex, Ace Combat 6 with the flight stick,A Kingdom for Keflings, A World of Keflings.
Bonus Kinect Games: Happy Action Theater and Sesame Street.
*Skyrim was so bad on PS3 that it almost deserves to be #1*
Was this made by a.i.? No human being would put Shadowrun, Fable III, and Splinter Cell: Conviction into a list of the 7 best Xbox 360 games.
Would love to play Ace Combat6 on PlayStation, but Xbox decided to buy exclusivity and keep it off a competing platform.
The only mainline game I never played except for one level at a friends place. Game sold less than any other in the series if I remember correctly.
When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....
Fable II launched back in 2008 and remains the best the series has offered. Ahead of the series comeback, it's time to look at the classic.
Loved this game, oh and i always saved my dog at the end, hope the new Fable has a animal companion.
Fable 2 was the best inthe series. Peter waaaaaaay over promised with fable 1 and it was good but disappointing. He didn't go crazy eith hype for the second game and it was surprisingly awesome. Then he ran his mouth promoting 3 and it was the worst of the 3.
I only got to play it once 😩 I'm so tempted to buy a Xbox 360 slim but planning on getting the series x soon since I got a PS5 in February Im ready to get saints row 1&2 back, GTA 4, fable 2, but I also want to play infamous 1&2 again Sony screwed us over with the stream only for saints row 2 and other gems smh
It’s foolish to say that one RPG is "better" than all the rest across systems and generations. This is merely the 25 RPGs we feel are the best and nothing more!
Dragon Quest 11 isn't even the best Dragon Quest game, it's a good game, but not the best. Dragon Quest 8 is superior to it in almost every way.
OK let's end this, in order
Xenogears
Final Fantasy 8
Final Fantasy 7
Final Fantasy 9
Final Fantasy 6
Chrono Trigger
Legend of Dragoon
Breath of Fire 4
Breath of Fire 3
Dragon Quest 8
Dragon Quest 11
Vagrant Story
Saga Frontier 2
Chrono Cross
Suikoden 2
Suikoden
Threads of Fate
Final Fantasy X
Final Fantasy XII
Lunar 2
Some of my personal favorites are Planescape: Torment, New Vegas, Morrowind, Kotor 2, Wasteland 3, Witcher 2, Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines, Deus Ex, Disco Elysium and Vampyr.
As far as jrpg, while I'm not as big a fan as I am for Western RPGs, I love Persona 3 - 5, Dragon Quest 8 and 11, Rogue Galaxy, Final Fantast 6,7, and 12; and Lost Odyssey.
rubish? it may have not lived up to your hype peter but this game is not rubish its actually a personal favourite and i would tell anyone who is interested in a 360 to pick it up
@dizzleK
not out the industry i just think he has had enough of microsoft personally, he still creates good games and your right he should talk down on them, :S you didt like iver fable =/ o well guess its not for every 1
@Jamegohanssj5
he admitted he was interested in move it would be nice to see what he could do with the ps3s power etc or even with move then guy is a real talent, but i doubt his going anywhere
peter, shut up. you saying your own work is shit now really doesn't inspire me to run out and buy fable 3.
with all due respect this asshat should really just be drummed out of the industry. now fable 2 is garbage but before it came out this prick couldn't stop hyping it. i actually agree though, fable 2 was just as disappointing as the first. fool me once, shame on you. fool me twice, shame on me. fable doesn't get a 3rd chance, i'm not being suckered again.
Peter Molyneux: Fable II Was "Rubbish"
Welcome to reality brah
I think it'd just be best if he kept quiet..
a few days ago.....finished the main story.....it was fun...but nowhere near worth 60 dollars as a new release......looking forward to fable 3, but I'll probably wait till it hits the bargain bin like 2.....
